    Standard ATX PSU with IBM Thinkcenter E31

    So IBM decided to use a 14pin connector on these things, it's pretty common to get or make an adapter these days, and I did pick one up. Trouble is, it won't work consistently with my Seasonic X850. It seems to be OK under load, but if you leave it sit for a length of time between ten minutes...

    Miners messing with the supply chain again?

    Really kind of a drag. I'd have been happy to give AMD some money but nobody had anything I was looking for in stock(or it was comically priced). And if I had been able to find one, I likely would have bought a freesync monitor to go with it, but noooooooo lol... So another company missed...

    Barracuda Pro?

    Any word on these? Most of the reviews I find are for the giant 10tb one, I need a 2-4tb. I got burned a few years back by Seagate, but I also have three STBD3000100 that I bought in 2013 that have run 24/7, and still are with no issue(2bay NAS and an external backup). HGST's 3tb NAS has been...

    Powering a Lenovo Thinkstation E31

    Thanks Burpo, I guess I'll leave it be and marvel at the efficiency of modern cpu/gpu combo's. Far cry from my old FX/crossfire rig lol......

    Powering a Lenovo Thinkstation E31

    Bought cheap e3-1245v2 brand new one of these, put in 16gb, an ssd, a 10K velociraptor, a 1tb seagate sata, and a gtx 1050ti. This little thing has a 280w psu, with nothing but the PC on I'm seeing 36w browsing and 160W with cinebench and heaven running on my cyberpower UPS display. It never...

    Diesel Cars - am i missing something?

    I noticed yesterday, here anyway, diesel is 20c ish under regular. Which is the way god and Rudolf Diesel intended. :sneaky:

    Diesel Cars - am i missing something?

    What he meant was that it was parked in a garage, not sat in a garage unused. That's what Jaguars, Maseratis and Land Rovers do. :)

    Diesel Cars - am i missing something?

    Congrats man. I thought the TDI was pretty strong too, and it is compared to its forefathers, but after a few weeks it felt slow lol. Everything is relative though. Luckily, unlike a lot of the alternatives, one can pretty effectively increase it's power output without hurting fuel mileage...

    So how are you liking Win10 so far?

    Yep, glad I'm not the only one. I haven't had any sort of viri or whatever since I was running NT4(and NT didn't care lol).

    So how are you liking Win10 so far?

    If defender is posing performance problems one really should upgrade something. It's easily the least intrusive and annoying software of its type I've ever seen. I can't remember the last time I even opened it.

    So how are you liking Win10 so far?

    I'm kinda getting that way too, old age I guess. I remember not thinking I'd like a Chromebook since it was so locked down, but I found that it just get's out of the way of the content I'm interacting with or the work I'm trying to do and just.. works. I learned with Linux, something mature...

    So how are you liking Win10 so far?

    I was doing the dual boot thing for gaming with Linux a couple years ago, it really worked out well all in all. I can see myself heading that way again. I miss my big-boy OS. :)

    So how are you liking Win10 so far?

    Yep, sure you'd be fine with total control, most of us would. We're the minority. Sucks being penalized for others shortcomings don't it. Teach em a lesson, go use Linux. Better yet, give em twenty bucks for it out of spite.

    So how are you liking Win10 so far?

    Like it or not this removing of options to deny updates or turn off defender is because of people that ought not to be doing such. I'm pretty sure the majority fall in that category, and it's a consumer OS after all. I don't like it anymore than anyone else, but I understand it. There are...

    Just got a i7-4790K should i be concerned about it running hot?

    The apples to oranges part is that we don't know if 80c reported for the AMD chip is the same as 80C reported for the Intel, or if either are in fact 80c when software is reporting such. If you take them at face value, the AMD chip never got anywhere near as hot as the Intel chip did(in my...

    Just got a i7-4790K should i be concerned about it running hot?

    I had the same experience, coming from a 9590 no less. They do run hot, you can cause problems running stress tests that use AVX extensions "incorrectly" and induce over-volting(temp). I wouldn't worry about it really, let it cook, they apparently designed it to be that way. Run a decent...

    CPU market stagnation since June 2013?

    Kinda old news but it's unintuitive unless you keep up with CPU related goings-on. And if you do that, you'll be kinda bummed since the market is a bit stagnated. Even the very newest not-cheap stuff is kinda yawn.

    [KitGuru] Sales of desktop graphics cards hit 10-year low in Q2 2015

    Yep, thereby screwing those of us that aren't mainstream. This is why I'm not a fan of the iGPU. There was nothing wrong with a person buying a $100-150 GPU if they wanted to limp wrist some games. They didn't have to spend $300+, and they could upgrade later if they outgrew it. Now it's...

    [KitGuru] Sales of desktop graphics cards hit 10-year low in Q2 2015

    It does eventually, and I'm not seeing that happening anytime soon based on the last 3-5 years worth of CPU or GPU progress. I hope they can pull some rabbit out of their collective hats and in a year or three I can buy a CPU with a 290x worth of GPU for $3-400, but I doubt it. And taking...

    Mine is still screwed up, freezes going to sleep or hibernate about 3/4 of the time. Bunch of yelling about it on hp forums. I'm probly going back to 8.1 on the lappy for now since they haven't fixed it in a month. Whoever "they" are in this case.

    Anyone deactivate an install to use it on a new board/lappy with 10 yet? With 7 or 8 I'd deactivate and it seemed happy to reactivate on the new hardware. I'm hoping one does not have to install 7/8, run the upgrade to get the new hardware ID onto the MS server, than install 10 like it was...

    Convert degrees to length?

    How would one convert degrees to length? As in: a tube is standing straight up on a flat surface, the tube measures 89.8 degrees rather than 90 (with the digital level centered onto the flat surface). Is there a formula for how much material should be removed/added to bring it to true 90...

    [KitGuru] Sales of desktop graphics cards hit 10-year low in Q2 2015

    I'll miss dedicated GPU's. I'll not miss paying for them though. Most people wouldn't dream of paying good-GPU money for one. They would, or already have, bought a console. That's all there is to it. When a GForce256 was $250 or whatever that was one thing, consoles sucked, every gamer...

    Dust be gone: compressor recommendations

    Your best long term solution is a well designed case with good (demcifilter) dust filters. Positive pressure with good filters really, really does work. The difference is amazing.

    I stumbled on a great cpu air cooler. Big size

    As little power/heat as that CPU has going on at stock clocks I would expect any halfway decent block of finned metal with some air moving in it's general area to cool it well enough. Close the case and clock that thing up if it's able and see what it does. 4500 or so oughta do it.

    So how are you liking Win10 so far?

    I keep all that small stuff in the cloud these days, in two different clouds, and sync'd to my NAS. Very little actually ON my PC anymore other than games, OS files and actual program-running files. My photo's from various devices all sync that way as well, other than random stuff on my...

    Poof! Out of the blue this morning my start menu quit. As did Edge(icon gone, empty space), the bar pop out thing on the right that tells you marginally useful stuff, cortana, and the new control panel settings thing. Pretty much everything that was new and not something that looked like a...

    Just had my first real boo-boo with 10 after 20 days or so of daily use. I opened file explorer while my NAS was asleep and clicked on a shared folder and it hung up, couldn't kill it, didn't get it's act together after the NAS woke up. Windows has pretty much always done this sort of thing...

    Why I don't like Windows 10

    No lag on mine, I don't like lag, so I buy fast computers. :) Start10 or whatever there is shouldn't be laggy. Heck I haven't seen a start menu lag since a hard drive was thrashing on a PC out of ram.
