Seasonic's engineers have implemented a design feature, where instead of cables; the back panel and the PCB are connected by a copper plate. This breakthrough solution not only lowers the chance of production errors during manual insertion but it also improves output power quality. Advanced three-phased thermal control achieves optimal between silence and cooling. High-performance fans are designed to take advantage of the impact absorbency effects of oil. They are extremely reliable and generate considerably less operating noise and heat than ball bearing fans. The lubrication of the bearing surface reduces friction and vibration and therefore lowers overall power consumption.

Meta Quest Pro is a virtual reality system that unlocks new perspectives into how we work, create, and collaborate, so you can go beyond what was previously possible. A completely reimagined headset is slimmer and more well-balanced for long-lasting comfort. Breakthrough high resolution mixed reality passthrough uses full-color sensors to let you see and engage with the physical world around you~even as you connect, work and play in virtual spaces. Multiple room-sized displays let you skip between tasks to get more done, more easily. Connect better with friends or collaborate with peers like never before with real-time avatar expressions that mirror your authentic facial reactions. Intuitive, redesigned controllers dispense with tracking rings, using self-tracking cameras to capture a greater range of motion and fine motor controls to translate detailed finger operations like writing and drawing into VR. Advanced multi-point haptic feedback makes virtual interactions feel more real. Meta Quest is for ages 13+. Certain apps, games, and experiences may be higher.

Don't buy it
By AndyH
I drove 2 hours to pick one up, thinking it was going to be great. No. First, it's MUCH less comfortable than the Quest. Second, in order for you to get an immersive experience, you need to buy "blinders" for it. When you're playing a game, you can see all around the room because your eyes are not completely covered. Third, it's true that it's clearer. 37% clearer. The 37% isn't worth $1499. Fourth - I loved the idea of working inside the Oculus Pro with the "multiple screen" function using the Immersed app. I never got it to work. I'm returning mine and waiting for a cheaper version.

It literally wasn’t made for games, it was made for workspaces and businesses. The Quest 2 successor comes out next year

How many units are available for pre-order? Just want to make sure it's not a free for all and you might get lucky to get a pre-order vs waiting for store stock and trying to be first in line to get one.

Considering in store at GameStop and Walmart are going to be less than 10 total of the X and S combined, it’s looking like that will be the case in store everywhere so it’s pretty much going to be a free for all unless you preorder online.

The GeForce RTX 3080 delivers the ultra performance that gamers crave, powered by Ampere~NVIDIA~s 2nd gen RTX architecture. It~s built with enhanced RT Cores and Tensor Cores, new streaming multiprocessors, and superfast G6X memory for an amazing gaming experience.
 

Right now I have a EVGA SuperNOVA G3 550 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply. Will I need to upgrade or should this be enough?

It requires a minimum 750 watt power supply so you will need to upgrade
