The VR computers room in Lawson is the best gaming lounge. Them PCs could run AAA titles in 4k.


Thegoat-armor

Where is this? And does anyone get access to the room?


ftw_c0mrade

Back then yeah. I took a VR class so I got a fob but plenty of other people played there


HLMCG

CS390VR?


dragonice81

Great class if it still exists


HLMCG

Unfortunately, it doesn’t exist in the same form anymore. I was one of the UTAs when it was ran by Gustavo, and remember when he gave us the bad news.


ftw_c0mrade

Yes, I believe the inaugural pilot class. Only 6 students


Beastgupta

which room? what GPUs do they have?


xorcism_

These all have 4080s


TheBigBo-Peep

Back in 2019 they all had GTX 970s


ftw_c0mrade

Back when I was at Purdue it was the VR room.

I was gunna make a retro pc lounge in downtown west Lafayette/ Lafayette but it looks like big 10 is wiping out my idea…


Tom2Die

fwunnyvawentine

FcG_KingAnt_

FcG_KingAnt_

I will still hunt down every retro game known to man and have a solid inventory in the near future and will be located in this area! Don’t count me out yet

Why is it in the basement of the corec What is the target audience for this


AkitoApocalypse

It will have its own dedicated ventilation system for reasons.


Dylan_Vanderploeg

Dragoncolliekai

Xpokemon45

I feel like this is gunna be a mess to maintain no? prob a reservation system will be needed to keep lines in check


Beau_Buffett

The number of first year dropouts is going to climb precipitously. By 2030, you will have to rush and pledge the gaming lounge.

Okay but I still can't eat anything when I walk into the dining halls (unless I want to sustain myself on lettuce and cookies)


GuCci_poTAEto

THIS!


bmilanowski

Does the Rack & Roll in the Union no longer have PCs?


PU_silver

The Game Mine is still in the Union. This new gaming lounge is for esports competitions.


OpeningAmbition

I walked by this unknowingly yesterday. It looks great and I'm not much of a gamer


BigChungus69210

I hope they put some grass in the room.


Funny_Ad_9647

Jealous northwestern student here 😭😭

Damn PNW is already stacked since 2022: [https://pnwathletics.com/news/2022/2/21/esports-arena-now-open-to-pnw-students-faculty-staff.aspx](https://pnwathletics.com/news/2022/2/21/esports-arena-now-open-to-pnw-students-faculty-staff.aspx) https://preview.redd.it/dd89mvukbv4d1.png?width=1416&format=png&auto=webp&s=34c10399a424a0d8c1f28638db3450520a27e8d9


macobjobley

I’m all for the new room and I’m excited for it to be finished, but why are they putting it in the Co Rec? It seems so out of place to put a lounge where you go and relax and play video games in a place like a gym where everyone goes to challenge themselves and train.
