I've searched but it doesn't seem easy to find a cheap USB-PD Laptop. I'm looking for something the kids will use so specs really aren't important. Ideally I'm looking for sub $400. I found a couple Dell models in the $500 range but figured I'd see if anyone had recommendations.
Thanks for all the replies but I need a card that is at most x8 in length to fit into the MB slots. From what I could tell all of the above cards are full length cards. I can do x4 or x1 as it will only be displaying the output of an ESXi build.
At the end of the day I could have spent my time scouring other sites trying to make sure they all lined up just to come up with the same conclusion the reviewers here did. I also knew that I didn't need to be worried about bought reviews or even toned down reviews as they always let the results...
I'm looking for a really cheap preferably fanless/low power video card that has an HDMI output to go into an ESXi server so I can connect it to my new KVM. The motherboard doesn't support x16 sized cards.
Interestingly enough my relatives live in the middle of nowhere and their utilities company recently rolled out fiber to every location that had power. They now have cheaper and significantly faster internet than most people can get. Granted until just recently they only had satellite or dialup...
The only reason AT&T offered an unlimited plan again was because TMobile was actually starting to take enough customers away from them.
As for your local ISP be happy they like you but it wasn't because of the repeal of NN. My local ISP has only raised the rates and while rumors of faster...
So I've been waiting on this review to get a better idea what the cooler landscape was for Threadripper. One item that has me wondering about some of the "compatible" AIO coolers that I have seen listed is the quote you made about these Noctua units having a customized larger base. These other...
The problem I have with this is you either have two "systems" or one. So how do you have the traffic appearing to all come from the same trusted server?
I'm aware that the 550 number is the whole system however it was for a system that didn't have the GPU under load. That's why I added the GPU numbers to the whole system numbers.
I'm not sure about the 1950X but here is the quote from Kyle in the last review:
"Using the 2950X , at 4.2GHz (1.375v vCore) hand overclocked, would pull 550W at the wall. With PBO we saw 410W, and PB2 would give us 300W at the wall."
So adding 250-275 to the 410 gives us just shy of 700. That...
Why does Newegg even offer half the 2950X/PSU combos they have listed? They have a slew of 550/650/750 watt PSU combos that unless you are planning on barely using the CPU and nothing else in the system, then it will be woefully under powered and potentially create serious problems.
Wow that was an awesome read. I'm in the boat of trying to determine which board/CPU combo to go with. This review is definitely seating my decision though.
PS I'm not sure if I'm understanding it correctly but it appears the benchmark numbers for AoTS don't match the write up below it.
Interestingly enough I grew up without cable and only had it a couple of years while in college because it was included with my rent. Currently I have Amazon simply because it came with prime and we watch the in-laws Netflix account some. Otherwise I simply don't care enough to actually want...
I stopped using Fedora long before that OS was created. I first started using a PC router from a floppy distro (FreeSCO) around 2000 and migrated to Fedora about the time Red Hat spun it off. I then moved to pfSense around 2009.
I agree it can be attainable. I used to run my router on Fedora and made my own custom iptables rules but after awhile I got tired of maintaining the underlying OS.
I wanted to tinker more so I built a 12C/24T, 48GB ESXi server fairly cheaply and then run a few VMs on it.
I think if someone...
Been running it for years and it works great in fact I only use the R7000 as an AP. The link I posted is the site that Kong posts the R7000 DD-WRT firmware that he builds.
I run pfSense in my ESXi stack and then run an R7000 as my WAP. I had considered getting a few Ubiquity APs for my house until I got the R7000 and had no more need as it provides excellent coverage over the whole house and yard.
The question of bang for buck is indeed a personal question. Some...
For me the ROI is between 15-20 years which is not exactly good. Also I would need a new roof in 3-4 years so that really makes it not a good deal until after the roof had been replaced.
