    31.5" 2560x1440 165 Hz VA G-Sync - LG 32GK850G

    Honestly, Windows 7 support ends 12/31/19. Not anything to take away from the monitor by saying. Good for your opinion on Windows 10 as it is not relevant to the monitor. I know you said that but why even type that. It's not an issue with nVidia. Windows 7 support for 8 more months. Smart...

    Edgerouter+AP To Replace Consumer Router? (advice)

    You don't have to do that all at once assuming the ac1900 is working fine for your wired environment. Just get the AC Pro and go.

    Is Windows Defender sufficient?

    I only use Windows Defender and only have used the MS stuff for 10+ years. Zero infections but I don't go surf porn or shady sites. Anything strange I pull up on a Linux VM. I do agree with layered security - it works. If it fails it is usually due to human errors. Now, I have utilized...

    Player unknown Battlegrounds

    I had to report one person thus far. I honestly don't care but when I look at my death cam and I am completely camouflaged and he snapshot snipered me with one scope, no one does that. You have to at least find me first - I was laying on the ground and covered up pretty well. You maybe...

    Simplest Administration, Inexpensive UTM With Content Filtering (including HTTPS)

    If you want the lowest maintenance, OpenDNS. You don't have to put a certificate on every system nor worry about it every. You can build groups but it is a PITA. It would be easier to build allow groups for the couple of people or bypass codes. Now, you probably still want a firewall. It's...

    Gigabit Apartment Setup Help

    $100 for CAT6 cable? Are you kidding me? What type of gold plated cable are you buying? 100ft Cat 6 for < $20, and I doubt 100 feet is needed. Run the cable(s)

    Dell 27" 144hz GSync, 1440p monitor - $349 @ Bestbuy

    Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it is not a deal. It's a 1440p, 144hz, G-sync monitor. It's not expensive, TN or not. If you are only using mainly for gaming, it's a deal. If you are using it for photo editing, no way.

    How do you upgrade unifi controller?

    Correct....always upgrade the controller first. Guess with my background I knew that and forgot that others may not.

    New home wire install...CAT6, OM3, OM4, oh my...

    Honestly, how often are you backing up 8TB of data? Your "buffering" will also have some latency in there. Heck, latency to get the data to app / TV and then to have it start processing and playing it. The TV I have on the same switch as my PC takes about 2 seconds to start streaming just...

    If someone wants to squad up, I'll be available a few nights this week but nothing this weekend. Feel free to add me...same handle on Steam. I'd rather squad up if I play again rather than solo

    How do you upgrade unifi controller?

    I've never had an issue upgrading one. I tend to keep fairly current. I also decided to get a key since I have 3 APs to cover my house. Had to add one in the middle as the two on the ends did not cover everything through the walls.

    Player unknown Battlegrounds

    The game was fun, even with the hiccups....then the cheaters multiplied. Then I tried Fortnite. I find far less cheating there. I still try PUBG once in a while but find it frustrating now. Has zero to do with me but more how a lot of people seem to have no honor. It's turning into a CoD...

    What software protection do you guy use?

    This. No need to pay for anything as they are all equally crappy at something. If you want to be safe while surfing, get VMPlayer and grab a free VM just meant for web surfing. Might be out of luck if trying to view porn on those sites that require flash though - or any other site requiring...

    Apartment networking advice (new router vs powerline vs repeater)

    Powerline unless you are willing to invest in something more fruitful like an upgrade to AC. I cannot find where I read it at but I just read somewhere a review on a new powerline setup by Ubiquiti that was close to ethernet speed with only a bit more latency. If you game, latency is the issue...

    Surfed porn on mom's work phone using Tor

    Idiot if not trolling. Substitute laptop for phone and what is the difference? It is a work device, not a personal device. Anyone surfing porn on a work device deserves whatever consequences come their way. "Loaning" it to a family member is not an excuse, having it stolen is.

    Password Managers With Locally Managed Syncing?

    Keepass is great, but does not meet the request. I am not aware of anything out there, other than cloud services, that automatically sync and can be used across multiple devices. What I am going to say below is talking about devices not in a single location / network. Having a single keepass...

    When will 10Gb networking become cheap?

    I like how you cherry picked. No shit on the bandwidth and throughput. I never picked that up with my comment, just like you never picked up that I was asking how much data are you creating that you think you need 10g...other than "you can." If that is the case, why does price matter?

    Prove that email was delivered?

    Bingo on the last statement. If you sent it to an individual with a free email account, consider it lost. If you sent it to a corporation, SamirD is on the right track. Before going through the discovery phase those, I'd ask for any email or record retention policies they have. If they have...

    What the hell's with this hard-on for Killer NICs?

    Player unknown Battlegrounds

    I've lost a lot of interest in this and started playing Fortnite. No lag issues for me thus far and I like concept of being able to build my own protection. Not saying it is for everyone but it is different enough and I've never had to wait long in a queue for a game.

    mCable Gaming Edition HDMI cable review

    Fail because it doesn't have the overpriced Monster label on it. :) Honestly, I'm with the others.....I could not spend what they are asking for those. Gameplay trumps a few rougher edges. If I want prettier game play, I do to my PC and get a better GPU to support higher resolutions and FXAA.

    Dark Souls 3

    No, no, no....grab a PS3 and start with Demon's Souls. No nerfing there. You die, you start the entire level over. Not saying there are not cheesy way to beat certain enemies, but there is none of that warping crap. Yes, you can choose where to go to some extent, but starting each level over...

    When will 10Gb networking become cheap?

    Why do you want 10g at home right now? Unless you are running some business out of the house where you have to move massive amounts of data, 10g is a waste. 10g is not going to help with latency. I'm making an educated guess that you do not have 10g to the Internet either.

    Upgrades needed if old router functions as needed?

    KRACK is bad but way over blown....unless you have an Android device. Yes, it is a network device (router, AP, etc...) issue along with being an operating system issue. I will caveat the following by saying if you have an Android device running OS 6.0+, you are at the mercy of your provider...

    Equifax Data Breach Exposes Personal Information of 143 Million

    This is all sort of bad. The SEC will look into the stock selling by the officers but keep in mind that there are insider trading laws. Selling it 3 days after they knew is asking for trouble if it wasn't previously announced. Plus, they could have sold more. I believe the amount sold was...

    Oculus Rift VR and Touch $400 Newegg

    Not to mention you create an account. Go create a free email account somewhere and put in bogus data if you are that freaked out about it. Heck, game through a VPN so they cannot know your true IP address. As others have said, FB tracking your movement data should be the least of your...

    A bulid for VMs work

    What sinister said. The biggest bang with the M.2 is the superior transfer rate, not the access time. Hey, it's your money. If you want to waste it on the M.2, go for it. Unless you are moving VMs between drives or transferring very large files, the M.2 is not going to make a difference...

    A bulid for VMs work

    M.2 is a waste for that. If you are doing pentesting, heck even password cracking, none of that will be HD intensive. I'd save the $$ and just get a regular SSD and then an external USB drive (4 TB) to store the data you need. Heck, even the VMs will run fine from a "regular" hard drive. As...

    Cox Expands 1TB Data Cap to More Territories

    The only upgrade option to get rid of a cap on Cox (sucks) is to go to a business plan. Those require a 3 year commitment and my recollection was that it was 25 down for $75/month or 50 down for $125 in my area. I was hitting about 1.3TB while doing PS Vue or DTV Now. Even most phone...

    Correct. B-stock goes in and out. Auto-notify on every one if you want the best chance.

    Warm? GTX 1070 @ EVGA B-stock $400

    And a 1080 @ $440 is still > a 1070 @ $400. You asked the question, I answered. The deal isn't good when those options go in and out of stock. Again, turn on auto-notify.
