I have a lot to learn in regards to G-Sync (OLED TV's have it)

The frame limiter that comes with the new nvidia gpu drivers has somehow made my gameplay EVEN MOOR smooth

CES 2020: Acer’s Predator X32 4Kp144 Monitor w/1152-Zone Mini LED FALD & G-Sync Ultimate

It's going to be a damn shame when I drop 3600 dollars on this monitor

My 65 inch 4k OLED TV didn't cost that much

$3600
You can build an high end PC with $3600 and still have a lot left over
You can buy a LG OLED or a Sony OLED that's on sale with $3600
You can buy the PS5 and the Xbox Series X with a new TV for $3600
No monitor is worth $3600, even it is 2160p because by the fall, 4K adoption rate will possibly increase with these prices going down and the new consoles come out.

Doesn't matter what it cost...come April 2021 when I build another gaming rig I am buying it no matter the cost

This is PC master race breh if you scoffing at a 3600 monitor this might not be for you

You literally could buy TWO LG C9 OLEDs for that price, and alternate which one you want to use on different days if you're afraid that OLEDs might burn in

Anybody doing any RAID external setups? I have about 1TB worth of blu-ray data discs that have my photo work archived from the last 20yrs. I was looking at the Drobo 5c unit for $350:

Drobo 5C 5-Bay USB 3.0 Type-C Enclosure

EDIT: Bought it, lot of features and fast transfer.

@GoldenGlove I been doing some 3D rendering breh. Using DAZ 3D. Might make some games with this. So far I just been doing photos. Avg about 30 to 20 mins depending on the scene, but it's been easy so far. Gotta learn animation and lighting but I'm feeling this a lot breh.

I been slacking on it, but it's still something on my radar.

Been tackling a lot other things but I def got to get back on it. Is Daz 3D an add-on for Blender or something else entirely?

Nah it's a program on its on. It's just a lot easier to make with stuff together compared to blender with stuff being made from scratch. Has a ass load of add-ons since the program is free, but I been downloading from a cool site for free. I think I downloaded like 60GBs of assets, probably would of cost like over $1k.
