Ubuntu server, with ssd os drive + a raidz2 pool with 6 disks.
After a processor upgrade I had to swap the ssd with one of the zfs drives because of boot issues, and when I booted, it did not re-create my pool.
I was dumb:
1. I ran a zpool create command, instead of learning the proper...

I would be happy to take any fee-less payment option!
I read many things about ZFS implementations vs traditional software/hardware RAID setups. That being said I wanted to know if anyone has any opinions on the following:
1. Use ZFS with mirrored vdevs.
I did a lot of research but wanted to confirm that this was not leading me into my doom...

I am getting erratic results with my 7970. Sometimes for a day or more it barely works. This has happened a few times since I got the 7970. I have been running the rig 24/7 for about 5 weeks now.

So I pulled the trigger on an ASUS Z87 Pro haswell build and after I built the system, I won an ASUS Maximus Hero (Thank you Kyle!)

I am building a new system, and got the video card before the rest of the parts. Like anyone else here, I swapped out the video card on my old system to test it out.
I went from a 480GTX -> HD 7970

It seems as if the 7970 gets 6k PPD... that seems so totally...

I notice that it is priced a bit higher than it should be on ebay and other sites.
There is an oddly high price range to it ($35-$80) compared to the 8800gts ($25-$35)
I would think the GTX should be around $35-$45 but it gets the boost for some reason.
Is there something about the...
I am selling my cousin my current i7930 system (see profile) and the only part that may need a refresh is the video card. The GTX 480 is nice, but not so much when I ran Metro Last Light @ 1080p high settings.

I have a set of 5.1 promedia ultras that just died. I have a set of 4.1 promedias that I don't use much, which work well, so I can use that for now I suppose.

It is a real pain to try to find a regular PCI video card (not express) on these forums so i figure just see what is out there. No trident/sis cards or sub 64 meg cards (which are just a bit too old).
DSUB+DVI would be great, and 3d capabilities are a plus.
I was aiming for the 20-30$ range...

I am currently trying to figure out what is wrong with my main gaming rig/workstation. Since I cannot get it to a bios screen, nor get the motherboard to beep, it is a very frustrating thing to do. It basically spins up the fans does not beep and then shuts down the fans and makes a little...
