    The [H]ardForum Perpetual Freebies Thread

    I'll report back with specifics, but I was wondering if anyone might be interested in a Dual Opteron + Mobo + DDR2 + PCI-X SATA cards? I don't know models just yet, but I'm hopefully going to liberate the hardware from the chassis this weekend, and I can get specs. I don't imagine it's worth...

    Am I reading this right?

    I am in the process of building a storage array, using a Supermicro 846 chassis. Now...I don't know if I ever really intend to fully fill this beast of a case, but it was free to me, so I'm utilizing it. I did some quick napkin math, and wanted to see if I am interpreting my numbers right. I...

    Just got my first projector - Is this decent?

    A2. 60 Hz panel. Won't support next-gen consoles.

    Just got my first projector - Is this decent?

    Yes, but still $3500, which is way above what I want to pay. I'm at about $1500 max, but the lower the better.

    Just got my first projector - Is this decent?

    So true. I'm personally trying to decide between a projector (most likely a UST) and a big TV (85") for my "man cave" area. Since it will be for gaming, I need decent input lag performance, although I don't play COD or LOL or any fast-twitch games other than baseball. My big problem is I am...

    Has the Steam Deck stayed part of your gaming life?

    My situation is very similar to yours. In order to play any of my games, I have to go to the basement. In and of itself, that is not a problem...but it definitely alienates me, and I end up not seeing the family. They just disperse, and do their own thing, including going to bed, without even...

    The Voron lives...

    Turns out I found a Voron 2.4r2 locally for $580 on Craigslist. I have a little work to do (get induction probe working again - or replace it), re-attach the side panels, and organize the wiring underneath. But for the price, I had to jump on it.

    Microcenter: 5950X $499.99

    I've been on both sides of the fence...although the last Intel was a 2600k. Currently sporting a 5950X (x570) w/ 32 GB RAM and a 6800xt. I decided to break that rig in by playing the extremely-tough-on-components game: KOTOR 2 (lol) And for some reason, seeing all these 3090/3090Ti prices...

    LF: Graphics Cards, CPU's, Motherboards for High School Esports Team

    I have this: HIS Radeon HD 6950 2GB I also have a Red Devil Vega64, but I wouldn't be able to let that go probably anywhere near your preferred price of free. That said, I haven't looked at what it's going for these days...my guess is $200-ish?

    The Voron lives...

    Overall, how hard would you rate it to put together/build? I currently have an Ender 3 Pro, and there's basically nothing wrong with it. However, I want a CoreXY printer with a bigger build plate. Yes, I know I can extend the E3P, but it's cost prohibitive, and I may as well get a 2nd...

    Best or some of the best Android smartphone ?

    Do any of the Android phones have flat screens (no curved edges)? Or do they all have curved edges (like my Note 20 Ultra) that I constantly accidentally touch simply while holding onto the phone? Flat screen edges are one thing I really like about the Apple phones (but I'll never own one).

    Western Digital 16TB WD Gold Enterprise Class Internal Hard Drive - WD161KRYZ ($299.99) (Honey 12% cashback + PayPal 12% cashback available!)

    I guess I don't 100% understand all of this. I understand that's how much information per block, but I don't know how/why it affects compatibility so much. I saw a post on FB marketplace where someone was selling drives that were 520 byte sectors, and they wouldn't work for their application...

    Seagate IronWolf Pro 16TB SATA NAS Hard Drive, 7200 RPM, 2-Pack $560 shipped @Adorama

    Honestly, with drive sizes any more, JBOD + Parity drive(s) are probably the best, IMO.

    My link and the link SamirD gave were for identical drives (Both Exos, both manufacturer recertified), except for the SED. I didn't know what the SED was.

    Building shelves

    Screwing into end grain is typically not advised for supports. Pocket screws are generally preferred.

    please delete

    If you are selling it for more than MSRP, yes, it is scalping. Just because the rest of the market is doing it/supporting it doesn't make it any less so than scalping.

    How to get cigarette smoke smell out of video card?

    I'd be surprised if this card even needs a fan...the HS should be enough.

    How to get cigarette smoke smell out of video card?

    This crossed my mind as well, but wasn't sure. I didn't *think* it would harm the contacts, but I wasn't sure about the PCB itself. Could this also be sprayed in the fan housing?

    How to get cigarette smoke smell out of video card?

    Having cleaned stuff (processors, HSF, etc) with IPA, but never a whole card, I was thinking that, but wasn't positive if I could douse the whole thing. Also, do I need 90%+?

    How to get cigarette smoke smell out of video card?

    I needed a "new" PCIe-powered GPU (so no external power connections), and found a good deal on one on Facebook Marketplace. It never even occurred to me to ask if it was from a non-smoking environment. After I picked it up, I could barely make the drive home with it. It stinks something bad...
