By Laboured Go To PostIs there any substantial difference between the PG27U and the X27?One is by Asus and the other by Acer, right? If it was like the 1440p monitors that were in competition, they use nearly all the same components and have the same performance, but the Asus generally has better build quality and fewer stuck/dead pixels.
By Smokey Go To Postalso noticed that pc slaent seems to be hdd less. we ssd bois
I wish. My 3tb sad storage is nice, but I still need those 10tb hdd ( and top that off with a few externals almost permanently plugged in).
I only have one efukt video saved. The legendary Balls Deep or GTFO is an actual favorite that I jerk off to

all this talk makes me want to upgrade
evga 1080 ti sc2
samsung ssd 860 2tb
samsung ssd 840 1tb
around 10tb of random ass harddrives, a few are old and probably about to fail any day
i7 6700 4 ghz
asus Z170 pro
kingston fury shit 2x8GB DDR4
benq zowie XL2540 240hz
some dell 1440p monitor that i forgot the name of (it's decent, but only 60hz)
corsair k95 brown switches
zowie ec2-a mouse
sennheiser game one for... gaming
denon ah-mm400 for everything else
i dont even remember what psu i got, some old as fuck shit that i bought ages ago. kind of want to upgrade soon, or rather do an almost new build with a new case (this one is old as fuck, and have some broken parts due to me having 10 thumbs and trying to install things in it with force).

i also wish zowie would get some of that logitech wireless tech. the ec2-a is pretty much the perfect mouse for first person shooters. but i want a none mouse cable life. would be nice to drop the mouse bungee
By HottestVapes Go To PostDon’t forget the Accelero III, ZaboAdded. What a cooler.
By Laboured Go To PostLooking a little light on storage there brother Zabo.More than 50% free space remaining. Everything's on the interwebz, why bother archiving stuff. Download, watch / play, delete.
I will probably get rid of the 250gb SSD soon though, replace it with a 1TB nvme for games. Not that I need it, but SATA SSDs disgust me.

yes
I wonder what Intel's hedt plans are..I hardly ever see a x299 rig in the wild now.
Huh. Apparently a performance issue with Threadripper 2990WX CPU is related to the Windows process scheduler when it was originally thought to be an issue with available memory lanes. When the bug happens, performance for these chips can drop by as much as 50%. The main program being used to test this bug is a CPU benchmark app called Indigo. It is available on Windows and Linux. If you use it on Linux, you get 50% better performance than if you use it on Windows. Native Linux is also 50% faster than running it through WSL on Windows. https://level1techs.com/article/unlocking-2990wx-less-numa-aware-apps
The theory is that since the Threadripper 2990WX is kinda sorta like four CPUs in one, Windows doesn't really know how to set "ideal" cores for each thread. It can handle it just fine for dual CPU systems, but can struggle in certain situations with more than that. Work is still being done, it's just that a lot of it is shuffling threads around between cores.
But, yeah, not a memory starvation issue, but a Windows OS issue, which I find interesting.

The problem actually isn't totally from each die being technically separate CPU's, it's that only 2 of the dies have direct access to memory. I don't believe the issue exists on the 32 core EPYC processor.
The Windows kernel just isn't made for "weird" situations like that.

I don't believe the issue exists on the 32 core EPYC processor.The article I linked also tested that exact CPU. It exhibited the same issues, if it was in NUMA mode. In UMA mode, it worked fine.

Hmm i remember when Wendell came out with this stuff earlier this year, i must be mis-remembering. Probably should have read the article, i watch all the Level1Tech videos but i must not retain that info very well :/
All my experience with NUMA is really with ESXi...

Can I get a brief, high-level summary of what ESXi is and is used for? I probably won't have a use for it but I'm curious.
ESXi is VMWare's type 1 hypervisor operating system, as part of the complete package it would just be called "vSphere". Do you have any experience with virtualization?
By diehard Go To PostESXi is VMWare's type 1 hypervisor operating system, as part of the complete package it would just be called "vSphere". Do you have any experience with virtualization?Yes, but only at a beginner's level. I have used VMWare, specifically, but not in the last five or so years.
i actually manage multiple high availability vSphere clusters so if you have any questions let me know
By diehard Go To Posti actually manage multiple high availability vSphere clusters so if you have any questions let me knowAwesome! Will do!

Almost done installing the new noise absorption foam for the side panels of my case and holy shit I never want to do this again. The installation of the new stuff is easy. The removal of the old stuff is hard.
It wouldn't just peel off. So I tried soaking it with rubbing alcohol. No go. Tried heating it up with a blow dryer and chipping away at it. Better but so fucking slow. Soaked it with GooGone. A little better but still painful. Heat it up with blow dryer after soaking in Goo Gone. Still short of tolerable but almost manageable.
After scraping the original stuff off, I then soaked it in dishwasher fluid and scrubbed it to get most of the big chunks off. Then another round of Goo Gone and scrubbing to clean up almost all the remaining residue. Dry then scrub one more time with rubbing alcohol to get the last traces off the surface.
Anyway, here's a couple pics of my current build:
can you write silverstone a letter telling them we need a new ft02 with less (or none) 5.25'' drive bays, and more modern cable management?
By diehard Go To Postcan you write silverstone a letter telling them we need a new ft02 with less (or none) 5.25'' drive bays, and more modern cable management?I probably should, huh? Lol
I guess a shroud for the psu to be like all the cool kids, too. Maybe one for the hdd cage, also?
Maybe a redesigned top panel? Oh, dust filters you can change without having to open the side panel.
Is there anything else it is missing from modern case design?
a more modern thing would be routing all the fans to a PWM hub instead of the slow/fast DC voltage switch
It's really strange, the front panel being really sleek or even tempered glass is a staple of the best looking cases but then it just suffocates all the airflow. The FT02 has the perfect solution and nobody is doing it.
look, they are halfway there already! https://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=855&area=en

They could just replace the AP181 fans with the brand new AP183 fans (that I just upgraded to) that are all PWM enabled. The hub would be new, though.
you got my looking at cases so i ordered the Evolv X .. because reasons? Selling my Evolv ATX to a friend.
Optimum Tech does good stuff.
It's funny how I once thought AIOs would be the thing to get me into water cooling, but they actually had / have the opposite effect me.

By Kibner Go To PostHave you had a bad experience with them or…?No, I never owned one, but the bad things about them - for me - easily outweigh the good, making them unappealing. There's definitly some prejudice and bias towards air coolers involved, but even factoring that in ... I just don't see myself ever using one, if not in extreme cases.
Going with a mini-ITX build would be one such case, I suppose.

I’d probably go custom loop before going back to an AIO. Not that I had an issue with the Asetek one I had, it was superb. Pushed a Ryzen 1600 to 4Ghz in a confined case without issue and didn’t leak despite the fact the tubes were bent to fuck.
I’d go custom loop because it makes a lot more sense to me to lower GPU temps more than it does CPU temps.

By diehard Go To Postwhy..? who would want that?
Probably an incredibly niche server market. I’m more surprised that they haven’t made a threadripper ITX board yet since there’s actually consumer demand for that (from what I’ve seen)

got everything in my Evolv X , not as anti-RGB as i used to be.. it looks cleaner than i was expecting i guess.
