Today I managed to double the RAM in ‘charisma‘ from 64GB to 128GB and also double the RAM in ‘treat‘ from 16GB to 32GB. A productive day!

If you’re interested in buying a headset yourself you might like to know that CORSAIR has other models. I am very happy with my new HS55 headphones. They sound great and they feel great too.
I had some trouble I think with the compatibility of the NVIDIA Broadcast software and the iCUE software. If I had my time again I wouldn’t have bothered with the NVIDIA Broadcast software, I don’t intend to use its features (it can filter out background noise on your microphone, but I don’t care about that). The only reason I installed the NVIDIA Broadcast software at all is that the iCUE software seemed to suggest that it integrated with it, but if it does it didn’t work for me. After I reinstalled the iCUE software it seemed to work properly again, so not really sure what happened there, but I think it all worked out in the end. Also I seemed to have some trouble when using VNC to connect to my gaming rig that didn’t happen when I used it directly (via the ATEN CS1922 2-Port DisplayPort KVM on my desk).
There were some YouTube videos from CORSAIR which played during the iCUE installation:
While reading about the NVIDIA driver options I learned about WHQL Testing:
The Windows Hardware Certification program (formerly Windows Hardware Quality Labs Testing, WHQL Testing, or Windows Logo Testing) is Microsoft’s testing process which involves running a series of tests on third-party device drivers, and then submitting the log files from these tests to Microsoft for review. The procedure may also include Microsoft running their own tests on a wide range of equipment, such as different hardware and different Microsoft Windows editions.

My Chinese knock-off USB wall chargers say “Designed by in California” on the back. Classic.
I got myself a new iPhone 6s this week on eBay for forty bucks. Gonna use it as an extra small screen on my bench. The features to price ratio is insane. When I was a kid I couldn’t even imagine a pocket computer like this, let alone getting one for forty bucks.
Here’s a happy snap of me getting the new iPhone setup:
I’m such a good little consumer. Today I got myself some surround sound headphones with microphone attached. I got the CORSAIR HS55 Surround Gaming Headset which was a step up from the CORSAIR HS35 v2 option.
I am interested in getting a VR headset but honestly I don’t know anything about that technology yet, so I am holding off for now. I don’t understand why the price differentials are so drastic, there are $20 thru $3,000 options. I think some of them are just straps which you attach your smartphone to.
Also I am planning to get the Logitech G X56 Throttle and Stick Controller but I haven’t hit the buy button on that one yet either. I want this so I can play my Descent games (see below, I got Descent 1, 2, and 3).
There is a sale on games at the moment over on Steam and I got a bunch of games while they were up to 90% off:
In this video I mention the Make: Guide to Boards, they have a searchable online database over here: Make: Boards Guide.
