    Mayhems Inhibitor + and Hades +

    The one drop per liter obviously doesn’t make sense. I just measured this for you using a Class A graduated cylinder. To within the limits of my consistent drop and the accuracy of that graduated cylinder, 10 drops is 0.5mL. I have a digital pH meter, but haven’t used it to measure yet. 10...

    CaseLabs BH8 Parts

    I'm trying to locate the EATX motherboard tray extension for a BH8 case. I have the default ATX unit. Any idea where to source such a part? I might just need to have a custom tray made. Thanks.

    Apple Silicon Predictions

    LOL. Agreed. Yes, hopefully I made that clear enough in the post. Linear scaling estimates are sort of like sticking your thumb in the air to get a weather report. In this case, it's more about scoping the problem. Scaling from the M1 8c GPU to the rumored 16-24c likely is fairly close to the...

    Apple Silicon Predictions

    The GPUs are extremely interesting besides core counts. There's some reverse engineering going and and as far as we can tell, it looks like they built a very scalable, but simple GPU architecture. Meaning Apple's GPU isn't going to put the hurt on Nvidia's compute business anytime soon, but as a...

    Apple Silicon Predictions

    No one wants to play market analyst? :) Well, I'll take the time to address a counter point. There's several good arguments that my estimate is far to aggressive and that the top end M1 variant will be the 12x core 8+4c variant that's "leaked." My thoughts on why that's a reasonable statement...

    Apple Silicon Predictions

    No insider info here, just looking to have some fun. BLUF: Apple's product differentiation strategy is different than the Intel nickel and dime you to death for ever 100Mhz or feature. We're going to see a more unified product stack, consistent with their mobile strategy, that's differentiated...

    Looking for someone to run a benchmark test for me on a 1-4x 980 Pros

    I have a prosumer/hobbyist workload that I could use some assistance running the built in benchmark against (can be done at no cost with a trial license and software available on Windows, Linux, and MacOS; although Linux is the ideal choice). I'm hoping someone on here can help me. If anyone has...

    Are More Expensive Motherboards Better Motherboards? - [H]

    This always annoys me. One of the most interesting (to me) X570 boards is the Asus Pro WS X570-ACE, but it has a few oddities. I'm interested for the claimed 3x 8lane PCIe slots (haven't seen the block diagram showing how this all works yet). However, the two NICs are a good Intel and a Realtek...

    Microsoft Criticizes FCC Broadband Report

    LOL. The FCC definition might as well be if a single resident in a zip code can purchase 25Mbps, than the whole zip is broadband! I suspect MS cares, at least somewhat, because they want to sell a game streaming service. Plus, Office online and others.

    America and Canada Ground All Boeing 737 MAX Planes

    Ah, sorry. I missed a change in personhood somewhere. My bad. Thanks for clarifying it.

    America and Canada Ground All Boeing 737 MAX Planes

    It was covered in various flying journals, airshows, market analysis, etc...years ago. IIRC, no required simulator time was a huge selling point and analysts considered it a major reason Boeing would sell a lot of the MAX. I’m going off memory, but I’m sure you can find the materials if you...

    NVIDIA Could Tease Next-Gen 7nm Ampere at GTC 2019

    And the point? Pricing is always subjective in a free market. Inflation just gives a way to normalize, not for subjectivity, but time since the value of currency is not constant.

    NVIDIA Could Tease Next-Gen 7nm Ampere at GTC 2019

    You’re only looking at a subset of capabilities and metrics. The CUDA core/shader performance is about the same for the same money (not surprising based on specs and Nvidias announcement focus). However, there’s additional units on the 2080 which make it significantly faster than a 1080Ti in...

    America and Canada Ground All Boeing 737 MAX Planes

    Seems like Air Canada did a great job there (although I'm confused by the verb tense since you previously said he was retired). However, that is not how Boeing marketed the plane, nor how most airlines actually trained their pilots...even in the USA. Unless all the other pilots for United...
