    32GB Optane/1TB 2.5" HDD vs. 1TB factory reference SATA SSD (Phison S11 w/ Toshiba 64L 3D QLC )?

    I would take the lower complexity of the single SSD any day.

    FreeNAS Questions

    FreeNAS works fine with less ram. The ram requirements really only start to get crazy if you want to use zfs deduplication. As long as you're not planning to run Plex on the server itself, it should be fine. (Note; I only have experience with version 9. I don't know if they did anything crazy...

    Nvidia ,Rtx2080ti,2080,2070, information thread. Reviews and prices September 14.

    My question is, why are they even bothering with 3rd party manufacturers anymore? Nvidia has proven they know how to make a board and a cooler. I'm surprised they still sell the chips to others.

    [TomsHW] PCIe 4.0 - 32GB/sec over x16, 300-500W slot power

    What? I don't even... No, you are the one who is wrong. Flattening a wire does not increase its current carrying capacity.

    AMD is looking for people to help beta test drivers

    Same here. I've had to roll back 2 out of 3 of the updates I've done this year. Now if only I could figure out how to get them to stop bugging me to update every day...

    [VC] NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 Specifications Leaked, Faster than RX 480

    Based on some shoddy napkin math, it "should" cost $260. I wouldn't be surprised to see $300, but anything above that is a bit too much. (Assuming they stop the founders garbage at the 1070 level)

    [VC] NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 Specifications Leaked, Faster than RX 480

    They should just stop beating around the bush and use pure relative performance in their graphs.

    Fury X at $440 a good buy?

    I'm pretty sure the Freesync only works over DP. OP, I'm facing the same problem as you. I have the same monitor with a 290x. My plan is to wait as long as I can until Vega/Titan. However, I'm going to get a Vive "soon". If I can't get the performance I want out of the 290x for that...

    1080 envy made me finally check what the alternate bios button on my 980ti would do.

    Ferzerp, you might want to try the "no hairworks on Geralt" mod. It does what it says on the tin and only applies hairworks to creatures (on Geralt it looks super sketchy anyway). I have a 290x and I'm getting a steady 55fps at 2560x1440 with hairworks ON. For some reason, there is a huge...

    Pathtraced Quake 2

    It's because the sample density decreases the further you get from the camera. I would really like to see imported_bman's idea of integrating this with the normal rasterized version. It must cost practically nothing to render this game on modern hardware.

    Going for 1440P with a GTX970. 144hz, G-sync, TN or IPS... Confused

    I would say go 1440 and don't look back. The increased resolution is a big productivity booster. For gaming, if you just don't max every setting you can still get acceptable framerates. My current setup has two 2560x1440 monitors; one is a matte TN 144Hz with freesync, the other is a...

    BenQ XL2730z and Crimson 16.3.2 and beyond causes random corruption/flicker on desktp

    The video would immediately crash. MPC handled it pretty gracefully, Media Player just locked up. I also noticed scrolling increases the flickering.

    BenQ XL2730z and Crimson 16.3.2 and beyond causes random corruption/flicker on desktp

    Another thing I didn't notice until just now... the driver update killed most video playback! Browser based video still works, but MPC-HC, Windows Movies, and Media Player all crash out, or only play sound. I've just rolled back the driver as well.

    BenQ XL2730z and Crimson 16.3.2 and beyond causes random corruption/flicker on desktp

    I have version 2, and a monitor purchased this year definitely does as well. To check your firmware version, you can turn off the monitor, then hold the fourth black button for 5 seconds, and press the power button before releasing the fourth button. Finally, after the monitor is running, press...

    Do you use both shift keys? or only one?

    Interesting... I voted both, but then I did a typing test just to make sure. I almost exclusively use the right shift with my right pinky! I am right-handed, I've never had any formal typing training, and I have a quite high typing speed.

    Any definitive answer on Pascal's FreeSync/ActiveSync support?

    Good replacement thermal paste for 980 Ti?

    It is relatively expensive and doesn't have very many suppliers, but I guess you can charge a lot when you're the best :) I got it at performance-pcs.com, but only because I was ordering other stuff as well. If you factor in shipping, amazon is probably a tad cheaper.

    Does socket 1151 require anything special to mount 1150/1155/1156 coolers?

    I just moved from 1156 to 1151, and the same cooler fits on both. As for the second question, I de-lided the processor the day I got it. I can't comment on temperature differences because I never tested the original temperatures. The layer of TIM did not seem to be overly thick, but there was...

    Good replacement thermal paste for 980 Ti?

    If you're not overclocking, I'd say just use whatever. If you want the absolute best paste, I believe that current consensus gives the award to 'Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut'. (I'm using that on my 290x and it hasn't caught fire yet) If you want liquid metal... be very careful since it is...

    Z170 Mobos with dual intel NICs

    In case anyone stumbles upon this thread: I ended up with the GIGABYTE GA-Z170X-UD5. I can confirm that it has a I219-V + I211-AT configuration. Also... neither Windows 7 nor Windows 10 had built-in drivers for these network adapters! Under Windows 7 it also did not have any USB driver support!

    Gigabyte Z170 BIOS with Dual-Link DVI

    [DEAD] Canada - BENQ XL2730Z Freesync monitor 450$

    This would be an awesome deal considering I paid ~600USD for this last month. Except... it shows as $800 on the website. If they are showing prices in CAD, that equals ~600USD.

    Broadwell vs Skylake: moving from Lynnfield I5-760

    Broadwell vs Skylake: moving from Lynnfield I5-760

    I currently have an i5-760 as well and I am itching to upgrade. Sadly Skylake doesn't seem to be the awesome upgrade I was hoping it would be, considering I plan on keeping this chip for another 5 years. How do you think a new Skylake i5 or i7 would compare to an i5-760 running at 4.2 GHz?

    1440p Worth over the reduction in FPS ?

    I am using two 2560x1440 monitors right now. They are: TN 144Hz freesync (BenQ XL2730Z) IPS 59Hz (Random Korean A- panel) They both have their places. At first I was quite disappointed in the BenQ, but it just really needed calibration. The 144Hz is very nice. Dragging a window from...
