When I set out to build pr0metheus I was not trying to set any records. In fact I was planning on reusing a lot of the parts from Tantalus when building it. The only things to change were to be the CPU, motherboard and the graphics card. This eventually morphed into a three thousand Canadian … Continue reading Tantalus vs pr0metheus – They’re Not Even Close

pr0metheus: The Next Generation
These are the voyages of the starship capDauntless... My how time flies. It feels like just yesterday that, oh , who am I kidding? Tantalus is old. Old as dirt.

LG 34WL500 34″ 2560x1080p 75Hz Ultrawide Freesync HDR10 Monitor
A monitor fanatic I am not. I recognise the difference between TN and IPS and so on but I don't typically get excited over the colour reproduction of one or the response time of another.

On A Mission for the Perfect Gaming Mouse
For quite some time I have been using a Logitech Performance MX mouse on my main system Farpoint. A fantastic wireless mouse that if it wasn't for it's insatiable appetite for batteries I would carry on with it. But alas, replacing the single double A battery every week is really starting to get old. I also … Continue reading On A Mission for the Perfect Gaming Mouse
