    RIP Gamers, not even the 1080 Ti will save you now.

    I agree 100% with your entire statement, but especially wanted to highlight this paragraph. I'm sure most miners aren't actually in it because of a "prepper" mentality, but rather just another easy money grab. Which brings it all back to how the hobbyist pc gamer gets screwed over because...

    RIP Gamers, not even the 1080 Ti will save you now.

    And the lunacy will only expound exponentially when they figure out how to trade options on cryptocurrency.... Lets trade a make believe item on a make believe digital item, backed by make believe promises, all while deluding the masses in thinking that since a gpu is burning electricity to...

    RIP Gamers, not even the 1080 Ti will save you now.

    I may be wrong, but I seem to recall that historically a video card depreciates over time as newer technology is expected to step into the space that video card occupies. The gtx 670 was replaced by the gtx770 and so on. How is it unreasonable to assume that over an 18-24 month life cycle of a...

    RIP Gamers, not even the 1080 Ti will save you now.

    I am running a 3440 x 1440 75hz monitor. I also don't like to upgrade often (as in 5-6 years). I figure I'd need a 1080 or 1080ti to push the monitor to its limit for the next several years. The cpu I'm not really disappointed with, but I have 8GB ram which I'm starting to see the limitations...

    RIP Gamers, not even the 1080 Ti will save you now.

    I've had the upgrade itch and was waiting patiently in 2017 to to see how vega fleshed out. Then I was between jobs and moving houses, so my upgrade plans got delayed. I wasn't looking closely at prices and tech news at all, and now I'm furious. I was really get amped to do an upgrade. I...

    ST4000DM005 For Raid 10?

    Well I plan on utilizing software raid (mdadm). I like this approach because its easier than zfs vdev pools for expanding the array in the future. I currently have 4x4TB, 1x3TB, and 1x1TB Seagate hard drives. The oldest are five years, and the newest are 1.5-2 years. I've been very lucky...

    ST4000DM005 For Raid 10?

    I currently have 4x4TB Seagate ST4000DM005 hard drives. These are singlets, that I manually duplicate files between to create redundant copies. I am planning a dedicated machine for raid 10. I was planning on getting two additional ST4000DM005 drives, then making the array for an effective...

    How old is your primary GPU?

    I'm still rocking the GTX 670 I bought in March of 2013. For me, its all about Mass Effect Andromeda. I refuse to play that game on my current setup. I will be buying the 1080ti (or AMD equivalent) to power a new ultrawide monitor I also plan on buying.

    RaidZ2

    I have about 6TB of data that I want secure. I thought that a RaidZ2 was second best to only a RaidZ3 for this? Sure I could buy x number of external hard drives for backup, or x^2 flash drives, but I am then still relying on a single drive for this security (and spending more money in the...

    RaidZ2

    Apologies if this is the wrong section for this. Current setup contains 2x 4TB, 1x 3TB, 1x2TB, 1x1TB. All drives are flying solo without any sort of array pool. I am manually mirroring folders of data across the drives so that everything important to me has a second copy on a separate...

    Anyone into filling their own capsules?

    I fill my own cinnamon capsules. I take four per day, and my capsule packer tool will do 50 capsules per round. I usually try to do enough in one sitting (2 hours) to cover myself for 4-5 months. It works well, but I wouldn't want to do this for several supplements, as the time required would...

    Do we loose muscle if we stop taking supplements?

    link 1g per pound is way too costly in money for unnecessary extra protein. 0.82g/lb for you would be 130 g. That puts you two standard deviations above the point where added benefit was not seen any longer, meaning it is already super safe. The 0.64g/lb would be 102g, so realistically...

    Lean Gains by Martin Berkhan

    Something else to keep in mind, toxicity in the body is an impedement to fat loss. Fat stores are a defense mechanism our body uses to quarantine harmful fat-solube toxins. There are many types of detoxes. Some are very harsh, which I would recommend against. A niacin flush if done properly...

    Lean Gains by Martin Berkhan

    For what its worth, I've been doing intermittent fasting for over a year. My routine is really simple: Lift day (MWF): I eat a few eggs and my spirulina, and chlorella supplements around 8:30 am. I start my workout an hour later. I then eat my 'meal' around 12:30. Then I don't eat again...

    RAID Question

    I am considering a RAID setup. I have a large media collection that will continue to grow. The essence of my question is can a SATA port multiplier work with the motherboard sata ports to then use FREE NAS or something similar to create a RAID 1 array with ZFS? I would like to get my array...

    Artifacts on Video Rendering

    Just thought I'd offer a follow up: I RMAd the card and was just informed it was shipped back to me and they found a faulty component (not sure which one). So I'm out $30 to ship it to them (they cover only 1 way shipping) on a $400 three month old card. Not to mention that the original purchase...

    Artifacts on Video Rendering

    I use a 60" LED for a monitor, with HDMI cable connection (monoprice brand for all cables). Precision X shows mid 40 c temp while running game. I'm running a 4.2 overclock, very mild. I don't believe these are the culprit. Thank you for the suggestion though.

    Artifacts on Video Rendering

    This is an example of it during a video. Its similar while playing games. It spontaneously began while playing Mass Effect 3 today. I've had no issues with this card in the three or more months I've used it. Specs: I5-2500k Asus p8z68 pro gen 3 motherboard Gigabyte Windforce GTX 670 (stock...

    Best tool for GPU monitoring

    A little off topic, but better than a new thread: Is there a modification you can make to increase font size on precision X? I sit about 8 feet away from a 60" led tv and really have to squint to see the graphs (which is the most important element of the software). I know you can increase the...

    2500k overclock VID Question

    The calculated offset value was -0.165v, but it would lock up in the bios or boot loop. I decreased it to -0.150 and it got a bsod error at windows startup. I decreased it to -0.140v and it loaded in windows. I blend tested for about 7 hours and it did fine. I am now just waiting in...

    Do 2500Ks all have the same lowest power state?

    I'm not certain this is stable at x16 (0 load) yet. I locked it in about 12 hours ago, and as of yet have not had a lock up or bsod. Under load its at 4.2 at 1.216v

    2500k overclock VID Question

    So is it better to decrease the size of the negative offset (move it closer to zero) or decrease the level of llc (from 4.5 to 3 or 2/5) if you get the idle lock up or bsod issue?

    how should i stability test my cpu

    Others shared this with me, so I'll pass it along to you; the auto overclock will use far more voltage than is necessary. I'm using the z68 pro gen 3 asus board and the auto overclock had me at a bclk of 103 with a x43 multiplier, using 1.3 volts under load. I'm almost done manually overclocking...

    2500k overclock VID Question

    This made me curious: Is there a software application that will run silently in the background, but track your cpu load over time, displaying a line graph to show when load occurs, and what programs were drawing that load? I'd be more agreeable to a bigger overclock if I had more knowledge of...

    2500k overclock VID Question

    Thanks Boris for the help. I'll work on that in the coming days. Another follow up question to anyone out there: I set my vcore to 1.210. Under load CPUZ shows voltage from 1.208 to 1.216. Can vdroop actually become anti droop? Why would it overshoot vcore with llc at 4/5?

    Are My temps Good?

    I hadn't realized Prime95 had updated (I was using 26.6). Honestly I didn't have the time to thoroughly walk through an overclock manually. I also wasn't aware that an auto overclock would run high on voltage. I'm trying to do the overclock properly now. I still only need a moderate...

    Are My temps Good?

    Vcore is showing 1.296-1.304 on asus suite while running on 100% load. It is showing 0.992 while at idle at 1648 Is that too much voltage?
