I will try this sub-forum for my question: Yesterday I installed a second Nest Cam and it greatly affected web browsing, a lot of pages would not load on the first try. I turned the camera on and off to verify it's the culprit. My upload bandwith is 10Mbps and each Nest cam uses about 1 Mbps...

Yesterday I installed a second Nest Cam and it greatly affected web browsing, a lot of pages would not load on the first try. I turned the camera on and off to verify it's the culprit. My upload bandwith is 10Mbps and each Nest cam uses about 1 Mbps for upload, so this is not the bottleneck...

Does anyone know any company that sells switches or routers not manufactured in China? Thx

I am looking to build a workstation for $700-800, speed is not important as it's mainly for monitoring/logging data 24/7. I want to go with ECC RAM to minimize downtime, what are my options?

Today when I was trying to print a document from the home printer (I rarely use the printer at home) I found out that it's off the network, furthermore I could not connect to the wifi router (192.168.1.1). But it worked when I booted to safe mode w/networking (I am using Win10). I am using...

Not sure if this is the right place to post it, I am going to build a PC (around $400) for work, and the most CPU intensive application I will use is handbrake encoding. If I go with Ryzen I would need to get a discreet GPU, so I wonder if I put that money in an Intel processor would it yield...

Recently I purchased the Dell U2415 to replace my 11-year old Eizo 4:3 monitor in my office. I picked 16:10 mainly for productivity and it's PWM-free backlighting. While this is a good monitor I feel the contrast can be a bit higher (~850 measured using i1DP as opposed to 1000 in the specs) and...

I am looking for a 32'' 1440p display under $800, (4K seems still too expensive, unless a 4k TV happen to offer better viewing experience then I may reconsider) what's a popular choice here? It's mainly for general viewing, less for gaming. I was looking at Asus PB328Q, it has good reviews with...

Looking for a cloud solution to manage client computers over a private network, due to security concern we want to host the service ourselves. Any recommendations?

I have an Eizo monitor that only has DVI and DP inputs, so to connect my receiver to my pc, can I connect the HDMI out on my 270x to receiver while its DP out is connected to the monitor? Will this transmit audio? p.s. I've been thinking to connect HDMI to receiver then out to monitor with a...

I recently purchased an Eizo EV2736W but wasn't very happy with it due to some back light bleeding (http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1720480&page=9), so I returned it and bought two more. After both arrived today I placed them side by side, and hit the power button, here what I captured...

Last time I was watching movies on Eizo 2736W and I still think my old Eizo L768 which uses CCFL backlight is easier on the eyes. If the ambient light in my room is 2800K lightbulb, should I calibrate my monitor to D65 white point (6500k temp) or lower?

Does anyone know how to set the clock multiplier in Asus Z87 Pro BIOS? I see the option for CPU Graphics voltage but not the multiplier setting. I can do it in Intel extreme tuning utility but it's not a permanent solution. p.s. in case you wonder why OC HD 4600, it's not for gaming, I just...

I was running Passmark 8 on my 4770k (stock speed) and the overall CPU score was lower than the 3770k reference. In the breakdown of each test I notice the 4770k was lagging behind the 3770k in all but one test (prime numbers), the biggest two were the following: About 5% slower? Do any of...

I recently built a PC with i7-4770k CPU and also bought a 2560x1440 monitor. So I thought this machine should be able to handle any 1080p movies I throw at it, I set madVR chroma and image scaling to the highest (Jinc 3 taps with AR) setting. When a 1080p movie is playing at its native...

Everything is fine except one color has a whopping 8.4 dE! My monitor setting: Brightness: 30 Contrast: 50 Temp: 6500 Gamma: 2.2 Should I play with the i1 Display Pro setting to get a better result? Or is this monitor an outlier?

For regular gamut display, should I choose White LED, RGB LED, or OLED?

First of all sorry if this topic has been debated to death before. Basically I am looking for a high quality 27'' monitor and it will be used primarily for movies and web browsing (I know most ppl here are gamers but I am not one, lol), color accuracy is fairly important as long as colors in the...
