    Best case for SLI 1080ti FTW3?

    Looking for input on a new PC case. The GPU thermals on my current setup aren't great due to the shallow height above the GPU's. For reference, the PCIE power cables touch the lid. The bulk of the exhaust from the bottom GPU recirculates into the top GPU. Due to housing changes, I need to...

    How do you store and share your internal system documentation/passwords?

    Hollywood Hospital Paid $17,000 Ransom To Hackers

    What is shocking is why did they have to pay the ransom rather than restore from on site backup files? Did they not have any backups? Did the backups get encrypted also? I've seen the crypto virus take on dozens of forms. Hackers have refined the code now that it no longer requires...
