Graphic Card Upgrade

Last week been a busy week as I purchase a new graphic card for my PC.
From Nvidia GT650 to AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT.

My original plan was to get Nvidia card.

Intel Core i5-3470
HyperX RAM 8GB x2
CoolerMaster Extreme 2 RS-525-PCAR-D3
AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT
Kingston SA400 120GB
Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500GB
Western Digital WD10EZEX 1TB
LG 27″ 27MP59G FHD IPS Gaming LED Monitor x2
Logitech MK850 Performance Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo
Armaggeddon Pulse 7 Headset
Vinnfier Icon 505
Logitech Webcam C170

Some part I personally feel a bit troublesome to apply, so I skip it.

Baby Yoda AR

Grogu wonder where is my Star Wars collectible

Google has added Grogu (formerly Baby Yoda) to it’s augmented reality search results.
With this, you could have Baby Yoda straight into your bedroom or home office, no spaceship required.

Google Search Result of Baby Yoda

Searching “Grogu”, “The Child”, “The Mandalorian”, or “Baby Yoda” in the Google app will return the usual Knowledge Panel with a Wikipedia summary of the character.

Baby Yoda View in Your Space

You can click “View in 3D” to check out a model and you could get up close and personal in AR by clicking “View in your space”. Interactions are limited to zooming in and out, but he’s a really cute alien. Maybe that’s enough for you.
