cool- thanks for the response. For some context, I'm a self-taught coder (JS/TypeScript, Node/Express, Python, PHP, HTML/CSS, some C#) and do some development projects on the side (think gigs on sites like upwork). I've worked in IT for the past 12 years or so doing the network/sys admin thing...

Hi guys, I would like to know from a developers perspective, what exactly are the benefits of utilizing cloud services? Which products and service offerings are most commonly used in the field of software engineering? I wasn't exactly sure how to word this question- I understand what cloud...

I should have added that I currently use an HDMI switch and a single monitor to switch between each of my computer setups. I would therefore have one hdmi cable coming from the Elgato output into the hdmi switch to handle the "gaming pc" video output, and then I would have another hdmi cable...

Hi everyone, To make a short story shorter, my girlfriend's brother passed away recently, so I acquired his setup. This consists of an 8th gen i7, 32gb ddr4, gtx 1080ti sc, and an Elgato HD60 Pro capture card. I'll admit I had no idea what the elgato was when I first spotted it, and until...

cool, thanks ill give it a shot

congratulations ... you know everything probably just going to sell all of it and get a 32gb kit that'll just work i wish i had all your 1337 ram knowledge :(

Looking to get something a little better than my 8th gen i5-8400. Let me know whatever you have available and a price. I don't have any heatware, but being the buyer, I'm willing to pay first. Thank you!

Correct- all the slots and sticks work independently, so I don't know what the problem is. I was thinking it's the PSU only being 500W with a 1070GTX ti sc, but I really don't think that's it anymore. Yes the sticks all look visually identical, stickers, codes/numbers, etc. I don't know much...

yes

That's not it... problem is elsewhere

Incorrect- sorry if I wasn't clear enough. The goal is 4x 8gb dimms, all the same. 2x 16gb kits of Corsair Vengeance RGP pro. It only boots with 1 kit inserted (16gb), when all 4 dimms are installed (32gb) it won't boot. Goes into an immediate boot loop and won't post. It's the same exact...

This is really all I was looking for... sounds like it'll do the job for me.

well if you like details... I've been out of the pc enthusiast scene for a long time now. I built a few pc's in the 00's and early 2010's, (think core 2 duo - sandy bridge era)... that's when I knew a lot about pc hardware. Life happens (went to prison, had a kid, etc.) and I stopped caring so...

Hey everyone. New (to me) rig I'm working with here... It's got a gigabyte B360 HD3 for the motherboard, and it's running 32gb of Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro (CMW16GX4M2C3000C15) More info on the mb: Gigabyte B360 So, it's 2x 16gb kits, to make a total of 32 gb. The problem is that when all...

2560x1440

I don't get it... I mean I do... minute amount of ancient RAM, running at (comparative to now) super slow clock speed... ha ha? Is there a pun here I'm missing or something, or is that it?

I inherited a new rig from the death of an in-law. I'm trying to get it up to par and capable enough to use as an extra gaming pc. Should I consider upgrading this gpu, or will it still handle most titles at high-max? Any feedback from anybody else running an eVGA GTX 1070 ti sc? resolution...

Right, like i said in the op, i understand that no form of raid is equivalent to a backup. But for my purposes, I don't think any variation of RAID makes sense. The drives are for data storage only, no OS/booting. If I have one drive which backs up to the other once a day or whatever, if the...

Hey guys, I'm in the market for a storage solution, some sort of NAS. I'm torn between just buying a synology or a pc/server setup with some extra drives and doing it that way. I've had some low-end nas devices in the past, that I always ran in RAID 1, but now that I think or it, it doesn't...

I do game on it, and it handles things much better than I had initially expected. Currently it's got 16GB ddr4, 2x samsung evo ssd's, an 8th gen i5, and the 2gb gtx 1050 that it came with. I've been able to play any game I've wanted to play on it and performance is smooth. Settings are usually...

This isn't a home/custom built machine. It's just an HP Pavillion I was given that I'm trying to max out the performance on... so it's just a regular HP Pavilion case with not too much extra room. Also the psu has no extra connectors for the gpu, which is why any card I'm looking at needs to be...

So that's it then? the 1650 would be my highest performance option for my situation? I don't know the actual length limitation, I have to measure. I just know that it doesn't have a whole lot of extra room than what my current 1050 gtx is using.

Well i don't need a low profile card. Normal profile, but my case is kinda small so it needs to be of the shorter single fan variety... also psu doesn't have any of those extra 6 pin gpu connectors... so I'm looking for the best card this pc can accomodate.

Thanks for the suggestion... any clue how soon? Any other options that are currently available? Any versions of the gtx 1070 or 1080 that don't require extra power?

Hey guys, The title pretty much explains it. I need the most powerful "small form factor" graphics card I can find. When I say "small form factor", I mean length wise; not height/low rise. I have a small case that this needs to fit inside. The other requirement is that it doesn't need any...

5 years? Have you seen the price fluctuation in the past 1 year?

lol jeeeeez. Had no idea it was that bad! I wonder how all those mining companies are doing now. Well, maybe I'll just buy some bitcoin because the price is pretty tanked right now...

different strokes for different folks man... how many times have you seen a raid controller die? I'm not saying that what you said has no merit, but if you wanna talk about low risk...

Hi guys, Wondering how profitable it actually is to get into crypto mining. How much one could expect as an initial investment to get running, the cost to run the server, and the expected payout? Maybe if you mine, let me know your return rate? I've always played with the idea of making a...

Not trying to be rude, but that question doesn't make any sense! It's a hard drive... it'll do just as well as any other physical spinning disk to store your data... though it's a single point of failure. However, in most cases, performance sucks when using the usb port on your router as a...

I totally get it if you're buying 2+ of them. Just the fact that they market these large drives as back up solutions for people who don't know any better doesn't sit well with me. They should only be sold in qty of 2 or more lol

sounds much better than I was expecting!

Hahaha, what a throwback deal! I remember forza 2, that was one of my favorites... along with the skate series. I have an xbox one now, but I don't ever use it. Used it for a while to stream video content... but now that smart TVs are the norm I just don't see a use for it anymore. IMO I'll...

How is the build quality? Isn't 'over powered' the walmart brand of gamer gear? Never trusted it since I heard that. I've been 'away' for a while, and when I came back I needed a pc. I found an hp pavilion with an 8th gen i5, 16gb ddr4, gtx 1050, and 1tb ssd for $300. It's the first time in...

Are people cracking these to throw in a NAS or something? I never understood what kind of normie would spend a decent chunk of money on a single large capacity spinning drive, to put all of their data on

I can add- I've worked with these drives since ~2014 and have never had to touch any of them. They have been running for 6 years now with no failures in an enterprise server environment.

That's the jetbrains suite of products, right? What restrictions does the free community version put in place vs. the paid retail version? I had tried their python and javascript focused offerings, but found them both to be excessive for my needs.

Javascript is huge these days... now that node is popular, you can use javascript for both front and back end. I love python... but I'm a sucker for these higher level languages. I despise java, but that might just be due to the difficulty I found in learning it back in college when I had no...

Eclipse IDE is a good java IDE... if you need a full-featured IDE... otherwise just use visual studio code. For most, VS code offers everything you want/need.

Cool, didn't know there was already a thread for this. Thanks guys
