The cable could be the “premium optical fiber cable” that Oculus is supposed to release for the Quest later this year.

[@Jimmy___]

There is a big difference between 10% memory performance and 10% CPU performance. For most games, neither make a huge difference but for something like ANNO you would probably notice the bump in CPU performance. Extreme RAM isn't worth it imo unless you are going for an overclock record or you have a specialised application for your system.

[@alexandercalderon7098]

Jimmy B uh, no. Ryzen has better performance when using faster ram.

Instead he needed a separate person to hold an expensive graphics card just to make sure water didn't get into sensitive components. It's just funny to me.
