On connecting my harddrive with a faulty "Molex to SATA" power cable my hard drive got smoked. I need to recover data from this hard drive, I have checked out some videos on youtube which show that if we get an identical PCB of a hdd of same make model number, we can swap it however we also need...

I have 2 groups of people working: Room1 - has 3 PC's A, B and C and all are connected to one network via a ethernet switch, also A shares internet to B and C via a 4g usb dongle Room2 has 3 PC's D, E and F and all are connected to one network via another ethernet switch, also D shares internet...

THis is amazing I'm just checking the specs and see if it fits in my budget. But many thanks for showing me the way. EDit: Ok so this look like it is double the price than my current Gigabyte B450 DS3H, but I guess you get what you pay for :) The data sheet says it has 2 PCIE x16 slots but I'm...

I see that most entry level to mid level motherboards have 2 PCIE x 16 slots but one has fewer lanes that the other 1 - PCIE x16 slot - runs at x16 1 - PCIE x16 slot - runs at x4 This seems to be due to the fact that entry and midlevel processors like Ryzen 5 2600 or Ryzen 7 1700 have 24...

Thanks for this amazing information Derfnofred. So now I have 4 choices i5 8600k - this seems to be the sweet spot i7 8700k - more threads but doesn't seem to matter in this scenario (would the more threads come into use in certain tasks??) i7 7800x - more memory channels and support for upto...

Thanks!. Overall do you have any comments on the build. Is any item overkill or a misfit and you feel needs to be changed?

Thanks for the link. Quadro P4000 is Pascal series its same series that the GTX1060 / 70 / 80 are based on. This link https://www.titancomputers.com/Workstation-computer-for-ANSYS-s/97.htm talks about using the P4000 although its not an official link.

I'll mostly be playing around with Ansys AIM, and yes I was aware of Intel Xeon workstations and that Ansys recommends them for Fluent, CFX and Mechanical with huge amount of memory and I would have loved to go for it but my budget was around USD2500 and I don't think those systems would have...

This is an eyeopener. I had read somewhere that hyperthreading has to be disabled for Ansys but hadn't looked for the i5-8600k its a good idea and go me thinking. Apart from i7 being 6C/12T vs the i5 6C/6T isn't there any other difference between them? Regarding the Tesla GPU you mean in...

I was looking in the Intel Core I7-7800X 3.5Ghz 6core for that. It has quad channel and supports upto 128GB ram and just a bit more priced than the i7-8700k. I don't know why I finally decided on the i7-8700K, probably since its 8th gen and I thought it would be a tad bit faster that the 7800x.

I am trying to build a humble workstation for Ansys simulations and also Solidworks CAD. My build is here PCPartPicker part list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/w4KyvV Price breakdown by merchant: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/w4KyvV/by_merchant/ CPU: Intel - Core i7-8700K 3.7GHz 6-Core...

I am planning to set up a home file server or this would be my first so I would be using 5 x 3TB hdds in a 3 way mirror setup. This file server would mostly be for my data backups so data integrity would be the key here. Since I wanted a windows only solution I had finalized on Stablebit...
