    I don't think the 4930K supports VT-d.

    I'm mostly looking for Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals or just deals in general on the units listed. HOWEVER, if someone finds that they MUST revise my build, it will be used for an Autodesk Inventor (and product design suite) workstation, a GPU server running Server 2012 (for Autodesk for...

    TEC/Peltier MATH XD

    About the compact ACs, that price seems quite unrealistic. However, they seem like they would be a decent fit. Won't using large, underpowered TECs be just as if not more efficient than phase change solutions?

    TEC/Peltier MATH XD

    I feel that phase change will be really more risky than what I'm looking for (in terms of condensation, condensation, condensation, etc). Multiple low voltage TECs seem quite appealing, as they don't appear to be VERY expensive (both in the short and the long run). [However, if I was to use...

    Yeah AMD is not the most chill silicon at the party. I have seen some evaporative cooling before, I believe using 3M Fluorinert. Interesting to say the least.

    Could you be a little bit more clear? I'm having some trouble understanding what you are trying to say. Are you just recommending standard water cooling with a large reservoir?

    TEC/Peltier MATH XD

    If I wanted to use multiple TECs to chill a water cooling loop, while only air cooling the hot side with some large heat sinks and powerful fans, what type and spec and number TECs would you recommend I implement? And what PSU? I will be cooling 4x AMD Radeon R9 290X and an Intel i7 4960X...

    Simple Virtualization

    Okay :) For the software... it seems that VMWARE would be the best option for me. I need software that supports VDI and soft clients with GPU passthrough, and I heard that the free VMWARE has this, if not, it seems to be easier to pirate/torrent then Xenserver Enterprise, which I believe has GPU...
