    So, 6800 from 1080 a worthy upgrade?

    Well, time has gone by, and I am now running a 5080 after waiting for the prices to finally get back to MSRP. As for life changes, those are also complete in most ways, but I wanted to share what occurred with my ex. It turned out that it was deeper than myself or her family thought, and she...

    So, 6800 from 1080 a worthy upgrade?

    Shopping therapy perhaps hehe, but since I have to have the house listed by the end of June, I am further delayed /sigh But hey, might get whatever is top then. Won't have a house payment then at least. She is doing much better, but honestly part of the divorce is to kick her in the behind to...

    So, 6800 from 1080 a worthy upgrade?

    Thanks. My purchasing plans took a small detour due to my wife drinking my money away for the past few months and my finding out. I'm celebrating my Valentine's day with my soon to be ex-wife in Detox so it may be a little longer, but if I can find a good deal on a 6800 I will try to snag it...

    5600X actually, with 16 gigs of RAM and a EVO NVMe drive, so the rest isn't bad. I'm still shopping honestly.

    So, 6800 from 1080 a worthy upgrade?

    I just have a 4k Samsung TV as primary and a Dell 27"as secondary running at 19x12 resolution. Pretty sure the TV just has a 60 refresh. Sorry, on my phone...

    So, 6800 from 1080 a worthy upgrade?

    Gotta use Amazon gift cards, yay Christmas, but I have a 1080 now. Trying to keep it under $500 too, as I don't want to add too much of my own $ into it. It looks like I could get this: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0BCR4FKLB/?coliid=IK7E535Z5PXWP&colid=CTYNC0BWM1DB&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it...

    NAS for Business backups?

    Yes, but I want a box I don't have to build... One might almost consider me lazy in this, and I just saw that Veeam certifies QNAP NAS with their product which leads me to do that... NOT because I am not already building a home grown box at home using Zorin Linux on a gaming PC to also be a...

    NAS for Business backups?

    I'm working at a place with a bunch of offices scattered around, and with 15-50 people at remote offices. I'm trying to set up a local VEEAM repository at each location for their desktops/laptops and I need a good solid decently fast NAS or such for on site storage. I don't need the 10GB, as...

    What do I do with a E5-2687W Processor?

    Well, I ended up in a meeting that morning, and couldn't get out of it in time to snag the proc. On the other hand, I'm feeling a little more secure in my job... so eh, right now, that works for me.

    What do I do with a E5-2687W Processor?

    It sounds more and more like it is too much to bother with, which is a shame as I was hoping a 8 core cpu for free would be worth it...

    What do I do with a E5-2687W Processor?

    I was given the opportunity to raid a Dell T630 but I cannot take the entire box. It only has 64 gig ram and 1 TB of HD space, and while I might swipe the perc, it is basically useless except on a similar motherboard... BUT the CPU could be useful on other motherboards, if I can find one...

    Man Spends a Week Inside VR

    It wasn't as if he was "jacked in". He isn't Dodger, the technology isn't there yet, and this entire topic seems lame. At best.
