    Are More Expensive Motherboards Better Motherboards? - [H]

    The more features the more likely they fail. Bottom line is, you dont know if it fulfills your wishes and demands until you run it as intended.

    Need a firewall appliance with certain abilities

    I think the OP has a service running with opened ports, likely 80 & 443. In order to filter who's allowed to visit it and who not, Geocaching can be used, but it can also easily be fooled if you play around with Client side VPN & Proxy. A good start is to block EVERYTHING and then move on with...

    Need a firewall appliance with certain abilities

    Have a look at Rhode & Schwarz appliances. They acquired gateprotect and have their devices listed as UTM. You can download the ISO and use it for 30 days, full featured. The 9.6.x versions use the old app based GUI. Version 10.x uses the new web based gui. YOu should be able to block what you...

    New build locks up.

    My system had hard locks for 2-10 secs but then recovered to normal operation. It took me months to find the reason. Maybe yours is similar. Intel IRST has a well known bug that may affect your system. Any IRST driver later than 16.2 does trigger that on my rig, that's why I am still on 16.2...

    Intel Officials Allegedly Say that Apple Could Move to ARM Soon

    Well, that was with some nm left to work with but we are getting to the point of diminishing returns in rather big steps, so we started adding cores/circuits and make it more complex. Also this has a finite amount of what can de done and diminishing returns are already present, acording to what...

    Intel Officials Allegedly Say that Apple Could Move to ARM Soon

    Indeed, now give the ARM equal TDP and 2 years time. ARM has many more options to adopt it's design, X86 hasn't. Love my Xs btw.

    Intel Officials Allegedly Say that Apple Could Move to ARM Soon

    Not so sure. Looking at my new, ARM driven, cell phone, it outclasses many of the PC's I come across in daily life, from a CPU power perspective. X86 is not getting more efficient anymore. Adding circuits is not an endless option, and with 5 or latest at 3nm the end of the pole has been...

    Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB RAM Experiences @ [H]

    If heatspreaders on JEDEC spec RAM were essential, you'd see them on every Dell and HP server, and we don't. Contrary, when I used to boost mine beyond 3600 and beyond 1.35volts...they got real warm, despite the heatspreader. That's why some of those kits even have additional RAM coolers, for...

    Rumor: AMD Ryzen 3000 "Matisse" Launching July 7

    SuperMicro Wants to Re-Enter the Gaming Motherboard Market

    I wouldnt buy into Asus IPMI again. I have it on a X99 WS/IPMI board for a server and it is on no way comparable to an iDRAC Enterprise or HP equivalent. It is the most unreliable IPMI I have come across. The cost for proper IPMI hardware is that high, that a 500€ board cannot have it both...

    Future Processors Could Circulate Coolant Between 3D Chip Stacks

    Ehhhhh...NO ! and you still need to make I's to 0's...and that causes a lot of heat. Where to with all the charge from all those I's that are now 0's ? One could say to forget causes a lot of energy to go somewhere else.

    Gaming PC Build, $2,500

    This is true, BUT if you have a tight budget for a monster rig you want the CORE components to match and fit, those things which you cannot add later on or replace cheap, like a 5 year old mouse and keyboard. Those you can EASILY buy 2 months after you got the rig but it will be hard to make an...

    Intel Xeon W-3175X Is the Fastest Workstation Processor on the Market

    I dont think we need a review of Intel's Xeon W-3175X 28-core CPU nuclear reactor....and also not the boards that cost almost as much as a 2990WX Show them our cold shoulder for being that nasty to us to offer such an inferior CPU in every aspect. Yaahh it's a max10% faster...who cares...you...

    RTX Titan Won't Install?

    I'd install Linux Mint 19.1 via the onboard VGA, then once installed it will offer you a Nvidia driver....install that, power down, replug the cable to Nvidia GPU, boot to Bios and switch to PCIe GPU init and try your luck in Linux. Might still be a Windows glitch

    Intel Xeon W-3175X Is the Fastest Workstation Processor on the Market

    I*d buy 2 2990WX instead of 1 Intel. Heck, for both you need 2 PSU's....so whats the deal ? Intel, go home, the days of brute force are gone.

    Asus Prime Z270-A

    The RAM I used in that board ( I know have it in my Z370/8700k combo with max 3000MHz stable tbh ) is a Corsair Vengeance Kit, 4x8GB 3600MHz 16-16-16-36-2T RED, comes with a Fan. I gave that Z270/7700k combo to my son but kept my 32GB, he now runs a Gskill 16Gbit kit 2x8 with exactly the same...

    Home Network (Sharing Excel Files on 4 Computers)

    I think, since you run some kind of business on it as well, make it proper so it works from every device, anytime and anywhere. For that, you should NOT use a windows client but a dedicated box, either a NAS from any of the trustworthy vendors, or, if you dare, make your NAS yourself. Either...

    Wi-Charge Uses Invisible Infrared Beams to Charge Devices

    LiPo's are best stored with 2/3 capacity and they feel best around that value too. I charge my iPhone as often as I can, my last iPhone lasted 7 years, iPhone4, and it's first battery lasted almost 5 years that way. Doing it the same way with any of the LiPo's I own, be it iPhone or R/C...

    NVIDIA's First 65-Inch 4K HDR Gaming Display Arrives in February for $4,999

    Nvidia tries to set an elitism that just makes me sick. 1.000 - 1.500 for a top end gpu is already border like but 5k for a screen just blows the top off. Lisa, teach them a lesson they'll never forgot again where they come from.

    The State of VR in 2018

    I cant get over this nausea, trying for a year now. Still, I think for some niche games like DCS or other flight sims, VR opens the door to a new world, that great it is to dogfight in VR or fly formation, Air-Air-Refuel etc.. this is a different level of experience beyond 2D, if there wasnt...

    Apple Turns Its Back on Customers and NVIDIA with macOS Mojave

    Mojave runs fine on my Mid2012 MBPr 15" with it's Nvidia 650M-GT. No issues. I cant bitch about Apple, their stuff works year in year out. My laptop runs usually 24/7, over six years by now, my last iPhone4 lasted 6+ years without a glitch, survived 2 kids growing up and saw Samsungs come and...

    we need to build things that LAST and which an be reused or recycled to near 100%. We cannot sustain the 980ti yesterady, 1080ti today and 2080ti tomorrow forever. We got blinded and we should admit it. We fell for the devil himself.

    Intel Core i9-9900K 9th Generation CPU Review @ [H]

    You might be right, I never owned one of those. I still think Intel smells the "Gosh, we are falling behind". They never were pushed that hard, now they give you Soldered TIM, extra cores, extra Watts, all those things Intel tried to avoid for years while they could afford it. Now they cannot...

    Intel Core i9-9900K 9th Generation CPU Review @ [H]

    Lots of Watts, LOTS of heat....take a break...wasn't that AMD's strategy to somehow keep pace once they fell behind Intel ? Now it's vice versa. Intel, how does it feel to chase instead of lead ?? Haha, serves you right ! I am about to toss my Z370 board, either with the CPU and get me a...

    Tim Cook Slams Data Collection as 'Weaponized Against Us with Military Efficiency'
