    1080ti Roller coaster Pricing?

    So, in just looking at the historic pricing on an EVGA 1080Ti, can anyone explain why such the huge swings in price? I mean, come on $629 to over $800 back and forth?! I obviously missed my window or I would have definitely purchased a 1080ti at $630 a few months ago. I just find it very...

    Too late to start mining?

    Just looking at the prices of hardware and running some metrics through a profitability calculator, I don't see how starting mining at this time is profitable. Even if I were to drop $10k on hardware (I've known people to spend such money on desks ;) ) I don't think it would be profitable. GPU...

    So I have a SunFire T2000 - what now?

    Inherited SunFire T2000 server for free. I hate Solaris with a passion, so I'm in the process of netboot installing Debian for SPARC processors. I figure an 8-core processor with 32 threads should be useful for something. It also has 4 x 146GB 10k RPM SAS drives. Unfortunately the RAID...

    PWM Fan adapter...thing...

    I'm having a total brain fart right now. I have non-PWM case fans. I want to run them off of the motherboard headers (which are PWM capable) that way they are dynamic PWM and can change with cooling curves via software. I need an adapter that plugs in to the motherboard header, uses the...

    AMD 270X 2GB vs 4GB - CAD

    I'm looking at building a new system. My current rig is over 5yrs old. I no longer play games on the PC (well, minecraft occasionally). I don't feel like paying ridiculous prices for workstation cards at the moment. I know Solidworks and Inventor (and more) are really beginning to tap the...

    Largst HSF you've been able to cram into an X-QPack-2?

    I built a SFF computer for my brother several years ago. I used the original X-QPack. Pretty nifty case, albeit flimsy without the outter coverings. I remember having to dremel out some of the internal brackets so I could fit in a larger HSF. After the surgery, there seemed to be quite a bit...

    Faster timings, or faster speeds?.....(yes, I did)

    Core i7 930 build OC to 4GHz or more. 6GB -- 3 x 2GB modules Which would net you better overall performance? (I'll be working with CAD programs such as SolidWorks, so memory throughput is all important) DDR3 1600 at CAS6 or DDR3 2000 at CAS 8/9

    Mech Engineering build -- card for rendering?

    I'm going back to college as a junior to finish a mechanical engineering degree. What would be best to go with when it comes to video cards and rendering? On one side you have solidworks and opengl, and autodesk with directx on the other. I'll probably end up using other software as well. Is...

    Venomous-X -- push/pull or single fan?

    I know that there are some coolers whose fin array greatly restricts airflow, in which case a push/pull is almost necessary. Now the Venomous-X has a very well thought-out array, and it doesn't look like airflow would be prohibited very much. With that being said, would the Venomous-X...

    OC a i7 920 w/6 DIMMS?

    I'm debating between 6GB and 12GB of RAM on my new build. I want to be able to OC the 920 to about 4GHz (I'd be happy with 3.8GHz). Would using 6 DIMMS limit how stable or how far I can go?

    Requirements for OC i7 + GTX295?

    The last time I did any extreme cooling was way back in the day (2001) with the first 1GHz Athlon chips. I had to actually mill my own block since there weren't any companies selling watercooling stuff. So what kind of radiator will I be needing to dissipate all that heat? Will a Black Ice...
