    Replacement WiFi Router for my dad

    solid choices IMO. This combo or the new Unifi+AP Gateway with a lite switch would be good as well with Cloud remote access

    Replacement WiFi Router for my dad

    you could go the new ultra gateway plus a standard AP for similar cost. but the dream router should work great as well. bonus you would have remote access.

    Make sure the backplane is screwed in correctly(if its miss aligned could cause the drive not to make good contact) Check power plugs on the backplane. I have the same problem on my backplane. 2 ports are dead... it drives me nuts but I just live with it. Also that 1660 seems overkill. You can...

    Anyone went strictly to SSDs only yet ?

    You need to jump on the ZFS bandwagon. When that NAS dies no propriety BS. Any machine can import the pool :)

    data hoarders will be using spinning rust for a long time. You just don't need that much speed for this kind of storage :) Current Storage Server:

    New Pool with Segate EXOS 14 12TB refurb drives from ebay. went Raid 2z. I am impressed with the speed. via SMB using a single USB 3.0 drive I am to pull 230MB/s from my Windows VM with the drive passed directly to it coping the data to VM based FreeNas Core on the same host.

    Intermittent 40Gbit Link on Mikrotik CRS326-24S+2Q+

    Agree. I only use it for live Sports and that's it and news or specials. I download through usenet+Sonarr and plex all my wifes shows. Wayyy more reliable

    Proxmox with 2 GPUs, 1 on an x16 slot another on x4?

    Should be okay if both cards have decent Linux drivers. If I had an extra slot I would test for you. Currently passing a P400 to an LX container vs a full VM without issues for plex encoding.

    OpenSolaris derived ZFS NAS/ SAN (OmniOS, OpenIndiana, Solaris and napp-it)

    proxmox is pretty light IMO. not much worse in terms of overhead than esxi. it has really been the choice for a lot home labers for a while now

    When Will 8K TVs Catch On?

    8K is a waste ATM. Look how long we have been on 4K and its really just starting to matter. Even 1080p at a nice bitrate is fine.

    Intermittent 40Gbit Link on Mikrotik CRS326-24S+2Q+

    and here is me using lacp bonding 2 1gb nics for my proxmox box😆 but I don't even need 1gb. Unifi user so I want to see them come out with a mix switch with some 2.5gbe, 10gb and Poe in one

    New router for 2.5g

    Plenty of good cheap switches. Now if you plan do Unifi at least get a managed switch. Plenty of good ones with 1Gb and 2.5GBe.

    Is it true that 7950X3D suffers from stutter on games?

    I apologize was not aware 1 CCD only had the v-cache and the other was a normal CCD like any other Ryzen chip.

    New router for 2.5g

    it just means the wan port can only give 1gb. but the lan traffic is not affected. all clients can transmit at 1gb speeds

    New router for 2.5g

    sadly with IDS/IPS it can only handle 1gb of throughput. now they don't mention at what level... so you could get more if less features turned on

    Is it true that 7950X3D suffers from stutter on games?

    3d cache or not its an issue with how the CCDs are laid out and how Windows and it scheduler handles thread assignments. There is an interconnect between the 2 CCDs. This is why sometimes the 7800/58003d chips are better for gamers due to the better consistent performance. This is due to the...

    New router for 2.5g

    Unifi just came out with the Cloud Gateway Ultra with 2.5GB WAN connection for 129$. Throw in a UG+ Access point and you got something that just works :) and is much cheaper than that junk

    Look at one of those Plenty of things could replace this ancient box. Anything with 2 Intel GB ethernet would be fine. Something like the cheap mini PCs on amazon for 100-150$ :) Beelink S12 Pro Mini PC would be my pick for 150$. Can do alot more than just OPNsense :) Latest Alderlake Atom...

    so many better systems but I know most of the world pays way lower prices for power. My home lab including networking gear only draws 150 watts under load and I am scheming to reduce this but another 50watts or so 🤣

    10GbE card recommendation

    Look on ebay for this chipset: Intel X540-AT2 should be 30-35$ for a dual port card. 10gbe/1gbe/10mbs card. no 2.5 or 5 speeds but sounds like it does not matter for you. Make sure to grab the right height bracket.

    10GbE card recommendation

    any used enterprise card that's a bit older if you don't care about power. honestly I try and stick with Intel based nics.

    Intel Arrow Lake to remove HyperThreadding?

    the Zen4c was a reaction to the big/little in SOCs and seeing how efficient it can be. I suspect as AMD moves on to next gen chips you might still see the Zen 4c stuff to create a real big.little config

    Intel Arrow Lake to remove HyperThreadding?

    You are correct in less cache and lower frequencies but its not like Intel's E-Cores which are based on Atom architecture and its a different architecture
