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...

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...

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!

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

Anybody played this game? Wondering what everyone thinks about it. I'm generally into souls-like games, but at $40 I just don't know if it's worth it. Looking for a new game to play co-op with my friend (online coop). Can anyone recommend any other games that are fun coop shooters?

Hi everyone, Wondering if anyone else has run into this- I just installed Manjaro for the first time, KDE plasma variant. My mouse just doesn't work well. It works well enough for use, but it's just not smooth. It often jumps around the screen and just feels laggy. I'm using a 2GB nvidia...

I'm looking for suggestions for a GPU. Doesn't need to be in the RTX line, but that would be a huge plus. I don't want a 'small form factor' size card with the low-rise adapter, but I'm looking for a card that is shorter in length, eg. something that isn't a foot long and will fit in a smaller...

Hi guys, So I'm looking to assemble a new pc for the purpose of a home server. Looking for recommendations for the CPU. Obviously the market is currently leaning in favor of AMD when it comes to price for performance, so I've been looking primarily at AMD's offerings. I'm right now looking...

Hey guys, Wondering what everybody's favorite Linux distro is for 2020, and why. I'm looking for opinions on general use distro's (so no Kali, not interested in Arch, etc.). I generally just stick with Ubuntu, mostly because it's so easy to use, well developed and maintained and has such a...

Hey everyone, I've been looking for a new home server and came across these offerings, and it seems like a really great deal. Wondering what everyone else thinks? I understand these are 8 year old servers, but even still... they come loaded with 48GB of RAM, 2 Xeon's and 4 working drives? That...

I recently posted in the cpu sub with a similar question, now I'de like to know about gpu's... Basically, it's been 15 years since I've purchased components to assemble a pc... well it's tax time and I'm due for a new toy. Where does the current gpu market sit these days? I know nvidia has the...

I need a NAS. I've been considering 3 options, synology, real rack-mount server, or home-built. I'll put a budget on this of ~$500. Synology: I've always had cheap NAS/DAS devices but this time if I buy a pre-built NAS it's synology or nothing. I was looking at the 718+ because of the ability...

Hey everyone, I haven't built a computer in maybe 10-15 years... since core 2 duo's were a thing and the intel "i" series was in 1st/2nd gen. Things get busy and life takes priority. Anyways, thinking about building another pc. I'm a software dev and I do some gaming... so I'm wondering where...

I just started playing rust and just wanted to see what people have to say about this game. I enjoy it but it seems somewhat pointless... what exactly do you guys aim to do when playing this game? Do you spend your time scavenging for resources to recycle, or do you mostly just try to kill...

Hey guys, Just wondering what everyone's popular opinion is for web app frameworks. I'm familiar with both python and javascript, and have used both for small in-house applications. I personally really like the simplicity and features of node especially when paired with sails.js... and how all...
