The 5800x was in stock on Amazon for several hours today. I think this bodes well compared to 30 second "IN STOCK" times we're used to seeing. Actually ANT ONLINE has the 5800x still in stock right now for $479.98

I have a last gen Threadripper 2950x. I wanted to do a custom water loop on the CPU. I mistakenly ordered a 360 copper radiator instead of a 420 so I just kept both of them to cool the CPU and anything else I want to add later. These builds are complicated and I did not like the idea of cheaping...

I use an Asus Xonar Essence STX in an x1 slot My Mellanox Connectx-2 is a PCI-Epress x8 fiber card. I do not think you are going to find 10Gbit network cards using an x1 slot.

Maybe so.... I tried mining for a while in 2017 before the bottom fell out. There could be some teeth to what is about to happen here in December concerning Ethereum. When Ethereum 2.0 happens it becomes ASIC resistent again. It has been shown the RTX 3090 does about 122M/H mining Ethereum. I...

Well, I imagine if NVidia sold $175 million of 30 series GPUs to cryptominers, that could make cards more difficult to get. Ya think???;) https://wccftech.com/nvidia-allegedly-sold-175-million-worth-ampere-geforce-rtx-30-gpus-to-miners/...

Why would anyone order from TigerDirect?

I just recently upped to 4 sticks of Trident Z Neo 14-14-14-34 (64GB) I've been a die hard G.Skill buyer for at least 10 years. I've seen more issues with other RAM brands than G.Skill including Corsair and I used to buy Corsair myself...

X570 24 lane boards don't have 88 pcie lanes like threadripper boards.

Yes, I had stopped looking after a week as the urge wore off. I got on with life. Then those devils at eVGA told me I could buy one of theirs. That's okay. I have one in hand. I'm not going to fuss about 2 top cards trading the leader board back on forth on various benchmarks. That just tells...

Having gotten my 3090 last week I suppose this POLL is moot. As AMD release day nears I cannot help but fear being a bit butthurt if the 6900XT just kills. If so, still... good for them. I'm glad AMD has their head in the game. Competition benefits us all.

I finally got around to installing it after 3 days. It's thicker than a 1080ti Strix but not any longer.

Others have said it and I find truth in it: "Don't buy the first major revision of nVidia tech". The second generation will have many bugs worked out and usually on a smaller lithography. RTX 2080 ti for me just wasn't leaps and bounds faster than the 1080ti Strix so I skipped RTX 20xx...

although OFF TOPIC, I do lots of audio stuffs. I collect and restore cassette decks. I have a massive collection of both tape and decks.

I was a 3090 Launch Day F5'er who signed up for an eVGA notification at 9AM EST. Look what UPS just brought me....

I showed up for the very first time for the RTX 3080 launch to see how things went down. I almost NEVER buy stuff the day of launch. I skipped the 2080 Ti RTX cards because they cost so much more for not that much more performance than my STRIX 1080ti. Somehow I got sucked in this time. I had a...

After the launch day debacle of both the 3080 and 3090, I gave up trying to get one after a week and got on with my life. Then suddenly today after lunch I get an email from EVGA saying they had a 3090 in stock with my name on it reserved for 8 hours. I had made the decision I either wanted the...

After a few days of checking the urge and desire wore off. Now, frankly I've just got a resentment and a bad taste over this whole affair. Under NO circumstances will I buy one off eBay. I want those who sucked up all available cards to hang on to them for a very very VERY long time. Rot in hell...

It seems like just last October I built a custom liquid cooled Threadripper 2950x system. Now 8 months later I can get all those cores and better IPC for hundreds less? What kind of crazy world do we live in? It does feel like most days that I have "enough". I have enough threads, enough...

Nvidia stock and many companies who were overvalued due to the cryptocurrency boom have merely seen a correction to realistic prices. They certainly have not helped themselves by doubling TOTL card prices for their remaining non crypto core customer base...Gamers. And after all this... RMAs and...

I feel bad for those stuck with such pricey ticking time bombs. To say the least my enthusiasm and confidence would be really low about now. In fact if I owned one of these I might be tempted to return it for a refund until these issues get identified and solved. I used to be all over bleeding...

Some MS update last night (patch Tuesday) turned my 2 week old Threadripper machine into a worthless bluescreened pile of unbootable crap overnight. I forgot to turn Windows updates off. I had a 4 day old Acronis backup of my boot drive but Acronis sucks at backing up NVMe drives and restoring...

What an AMAZING time for hardware....again! It's probably been almost 10 years since socket X58 and SSDs were newish that I have been thrilled to build a new "MAIN" rig. I started building my current Threadripper 2 rig 2 weeks ago and it replaced my i7-5930k last Saturday morning. I have no...

LOL.... Okay I see they have cards priced for reality impaired miners.... but what about the rest of humanity? I still have a ROG 1080Ti I got for about $700 right when it came out before mining forced them into 4 figures $$$. I think I will also sit this generation out. I don't even game. I...

I stopped buying Seagate drives like 5 years ago when I threw 10 of them in the trash that came out of my Primary and Backup media servers. They had tons of surface errors and media defects. Many were under warranty but what good is that when Seagate sends me someone else's defective used drive...

I wouldn't use a Seagate Drive even as a paperweight for fear they will crash and set my papers on fire. I have not had a bad drive in almost 3 years..... which is when I stopped buying Seagate drives and threw 10 Seagate drives in the Trash because of bad sectors. HGST for the Win

I have long since lost all faith in any and all Gigabyte products. Many of their boards I have worked with are plagued with memory issues dating back to the Z77 chipset boards (awful 4 DIMM support). They just cannot seem to build a decent motherboard any longer. They really should fire their...

He should get 20 years, do every single day of that 20 years (no parole or early release) , $500,000 fine AND..... be stripped of any and all state or federal benefits including health care, pensions and or retirement money provided to him or his family.

I'm sure those million Pirate Bay down-loaders will now sue because they wasted their time downloading a Kanye West creation. Sorry though, they should have known before downloading anything from such a train wreck of a human/gay fish. A precedent had already been set.

I have been "burned" on 6 of the last 7 models of Seagate drives. That is good enough for me to not buy them anymore. The question for me becomes, why would I reward a company with unethical business practices by buying more of their products? Seagate acts as if nothing has happened and admits...

Sign me up.... I'm a Seagate HATER as well. 250gb, 500gb, 1.5TB, 2TB and 3TB drives are ALL Garbage. I have thrown many of these in the trash. The only Seagate drive that has proven reliable has been a few 4TB Seagate 5900RPM storage drives I shucked from external expansion cases and...

I'm pretty sure Apple has the patent on successfully stealing others tech and recycling over and over to Apple fanboy zombies. It's never a good sign when a company hasn't had a new product in 10 years and uses it's super lawyer powers to keep other companies down.

Yes, I had uninstalled it and hid those updates before. What I am saying is that KB 2976978 has reinstalled itself ON ITS OWN and cannot be removed now by any means, either command line removal or via add - remove updates.

I've uninstalled KB 3035583 and KB 2976978, hid both updates and ...6978 has reinstalled itself automatically, and removed the ability to be uninstalled and the nags are back. I don't want Windows 10 right now. I have 12 machines in my house which all run 8.1 Pro and Server 2012r2 and do not...

Dear Microsoft: Please stop trying to jam Windows 10 down people’s throats with Win 10 sales nags disguised as critical Windows updates!!! I speak of KB3035583, KB2976978 on Windows 8. Windows 7 has the same problems. I continue fighting to keep these damn sales nags off my systems, but...

As far back as I can remember I have just been obsessed with Windows sounds. You know, that cacophony of "Dings" and "Da Da Dings" that Windows makes by default. Sometimes I just do stupid stuff just to hear the noises the warnings make. On Saturday nights I sometimes switch to the jungle...

Agreed. Very pricey. The newer 22nm CPU's run very cool (Stock Intel coolers) and have no problems keeping up with disk I/O demands that I can see. I have a pair of Cat 7 Ethernet cables running to my primary Server from the switch. The servers Supermicro motherboard uses a pair of...
