Yeah the new joysticks are so smooth, I guess they got better ones for these new wireless controllers? All I remember reading was that the Xbone S came with the new "enchanced" controller.

It's definitely really nice.

May buy the dongle then idk, don't use the 360 one much as is.

ETA: oh wait I have tons of those cables including a 50ft one lmao nvm

If you were in the market for a new Android phone, would you pull the trigger on a One Plus 3 or wait for the new Nexus?

At less that keeps its value.

At launch but ordered it a week ago when first getting my 2160 CrossOvers. I'm not going SLi for the first time since Little Kepler unless totally needed. Will wait for the HMB2 TITANS for the official upgrade and then go SLi. Just need to unload these 980Tis before resale value dips below $300.

Edt: How is 4K Blu-Ray compared to compressed streaming 4K?

Almost have the apartment feeling like home. I left everything but my main rig, PS4 and headphones/DAC/AMP. So purchased all new stuff. It's coming together but waiting on 2nd CrossOver and mounts so my dual screens will be over the top.

@Raz and UltimateHog

With the new controllers that were put out with the One S you can hook them up to your pc through bluetooth and not have to worry about hardwire or wireless dongle.

@Raz...You can also go to MS website and design your own.

Not my main setup back home but close enough. I can't stay away from home and not have a nice setup for nearly a year. But also didn't want to move everything.

Oh this is nice. So the new controllers can connect via Bluetooth.

Might pick one up.

Quite a bit different in the ways you would assume. Doesn't compare.

I'm sure it looks like actual 4K. I might buy a 4K TV if I gots any FEMA money leftover.

I hope you break more than even. Get a nice well deserved revamp from this BS.
