  1. SilverStone Case Storage Series SST-CS380 Black - perfect unRAID case? 8x hot-swap 3.5/2.5" bays $179.99 @ Newegg (VirVentures) / $160.99 Amazon

    I bought this case a few weeks ago to replace my Node 804 case. It was definitely cheaper from Amazon vs PPCs (been the "daily deal" for like a month). It's a great case and SAS works fine with my LSI 9211-8i card. The 2x included side fans for drive cooling are very quiet BUT marginal at...
  2. Question Need a new AM4 board

    That's what I am leaning towards as well... Looks like they just reorganized the BIOS and gave it a face-lift. And it looks like the same RGB Fusion crap software that I am dealing with now. Everytime I boot up or the software starts it completely resets every device on my SATA ports.
  3. Question Need a new AM4 board

    I did find an Aorus X570 Master for about $70 more than the CH7 I found which does seem like a good deal.... But it's Gigabyte again. I've read the X570 BIOS is much improved, but I'm still leery. Once bitten twice shy or 3rd time's a charm? :confused:
  4. Question Need a new AM4 board

    Yeah their software is terrible, and BIOS is so buggy. My X370 gaming 7 soft bricks itself 3-4 times a week and I have to pull the CMOS battery to get it to boot since going 3rd gen. There’s a bunch of posts around about it early on and their support keeps telling me I need to reinstall Windows...
  5. Question Need a new AM4 board

    If I can get the X470 Crosshair for $140 does that put it in proper value? My Aorus board has been such a headache, and the software is terrible. I know MB software usually isn’t great, but I should be able to control fans or RGB without crashing my system. Dealing with their support has been...
  6. Question Need a new AM4 board

    Hey all, I'm looking to replace my X370 Gaming K7 with an X470/X570 board that's more stable with 3rd gen Ryzen and has a better BIOS / software. The fan and RGB controls are just unusable - and this is the 2nd time I've had bad luck with Gigasuck, so it's the last. Looking at either the Asus...
  7. Question Suspecting 4k video throttling through AT&T DSL

    I've noticed the same with PIA speeds depending on the server and time of day. Also depends on the encryption settings / strength you're using as that adds overhead too.
  8. Question New build GPU 1080 or 2070

    Hey all, looking to build a new PC and I plan to replace my current 980ti Classified for something a little newer and more power efficient. I've narrowed it down to a 1080 Classified and RTX 2070 (not super) within my budget. I game mostly with League, Overwatch, BF4, and Starcraft 2 at 1440...
  9. Question Suspecting 4k video throttling through AT&T DSL

    I can see this for TV service - but they're not gonna compete with YouTube. That was my other thought here. I am guessing the peering and routing is ultimately based on traffic content? Using a different DNS provider probably wouldn't get around this would it? I've read that certain DNS is...
  10. Question Possible New Laptop

    I've got a work laptop + Docking station I suppose I could use, but I wouldn't want to deal with swapping cables at my desk. Does G-Sync work well over a KVM? I'm also thinking a whole new build like a R5-3600 and 1660Ti might drop my heat down and still perform well.
  11. Question Suspecting 4k video throttling through AT&T DSL

    I've got AT&T Fiber Gig in NC and I get a ton of buffering on YouTube. Videos sometimes take 15s to load, and will fall back to 360p during playback. I am hardwired pulling 900+ on speed tests when this happens. Connecting to VPN everything works great, so I wouldn't doubt AT&T is throttling.
  12. Question Gigabit internet... stick with wifi or run ethernet?

    I didn't even realize that was a C2D you had in that - I'd agree that's holding it back. Not sure what your budget is, but you could get a 5th gen i3 here for under $200 with a warranty: https://www.dellrefurbished.com/laptops?filter_brand=189 Also either of those laptops in the FS thread...
  13. Question Gigabit internet... stick with wifi or run ethernet?

    Running Ethernet would be best, but if choosing between MoCA and Powerline - MoCA is a much better option. I've got gig internet and my wifi speed tests fluctuate between 30mbps and 300mbps depending on where I am in the house and I'm using actual EAP225 APs. Wired to the router I pull 950...
  14. Laptop recs? T470?

    I've always been a fan of the Lenovo T/X series laptops - been using them since the T520/X230 days. Sometimes the Lenovo Outlet has really good deals on clearance or refurbished models, and they come with the exact same warranty (1YR) as a new one. Lately we've been mixing in some Dell...
  15. Question Possible New Laptop

    Hey everyone, coming here for some advice to hopefully rationalize a decision I'm trying to make for an upgrade. Currently running a desktop PC with a 4790K/16GB/980Ti with 2x Dell 27" G-Sync 1440p 144Hz monitors that's getting a bit old (PC in Sig). I've moved to the south and now work 100%...
  16. Why hardly any pink LED fans?

    Not enough demand would be my guess. I think some companies make RGB fans that you could make pink - but the fan itself is black.
  17. Do cases w/ USB 3.1 exist yet?

    EVGA DG-86/87 have a USB-C port on them - but they are still pre-order.
  18. Re-enabling AdBlock. Anandtech ads are unbelievable.

    Not only are some of the ads annoying especially when they scroll up/down the page - they are a good way to get infected by a drive-by ad. Had that happen at a previous job - someone was browsing a forum (not AT) and inadvertently brought down the file server with Cryptolocker...
  19. Title won't update

    Hello Mods, I am attempting to update my WTB thread in the FS/FT forum but for some reason I can't get the title to update... It just keeps saying WANTED DONE which is what it was previously. Not sure what I am doing wrong or if there's a problem on the board side but any assistance would be...
  20. Do I need a ethernet splitter or switch?

    Something like this would be perfect. Plug all the wires in and stash it out of the way - it will automatically do everything else - and everything will all work at the same time. I would suggest looking at an 8 port model for $3 more if you think you may ever add anything else...
  21. full tower case with top edge controls like Fractal R5

    USB optical drive is ~$20... So you can save $20-$30 by getting a (good) case but won't have a 5.25 slot... The R5 is on sale for $89 - so might as well go with the original plan. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352048
  22. Time to disable Samsung RAPID...

    Completely agree here. A small APC UPS can be had for ~$40 on sale which is good enough for most normal desktops is a small price to pay for the level of protection gained. Most people have no idea what joules or clamping voltage is either and think their $10 power strip is really doing...
  23. full tower case with top edge controls like Fractal R5

    Big question - do you need a 5.25 bay? Phanteks P400 has top controls and is on sale for $65 now with promo code... Similar in size to the R5 but not as deep because it doesn't have 5.25 bays. http://www.phanteks.com/Eclipse-P400.html The Fractal Define S is also the same price with top...
  24. New Case reccomendation

    Hey everyone - I am thinking about changing out my case (unless you guys talk me out of it) and am sort of lost on what to look at. Current case is a Phanteks Enthoo Pro M Acrylic which I love - but I think I am having some trouble with ventilation. I've got the 360 RAD up front as intake...
  25. Need help on a new display - refresh / gsync

    I actually ended up getting 2x Dell S2716DG and they are AMAZING. 144hz / g-sync was totally worth it!
  26. Eliminating "CMOS" battery

    I think that most bigger companies these days are still using a 3-4 year replacement cycle on desktop equipment that coincides with warranty expiration. Also on server/data center equipment many places that are keeping their equipment longer are also renewing the service/support agreements on...
  27. Best Buy not feeling the love

    I've gotten really good deals on some of their open-box merchandise in the past. I do however take issue with their return policy. Different return policies depending on how much you spend there annually??? Also not a fan of their returns tracking system - I have been flagged by it before for...
  28. Did you know your HVAC blower speed is easily adjustable?

    The purpose of not having the fan speed on high for cooling has a lot to do with de-humidification. Often engineering and setting up the systems takes location and climate into account as well. A temperature a couple degrees higher with lower humidity is much more comfortable than a low...
  29. Need help on a new display - refresh / gsync

    Hey all - I am looking to upgrade my monitor with a new gaming monitor. I currently am running 1440p 60hz displays and am interested in a higher refresh one. I've got a 980ti and usually play games like LoL and FPS like BF4/BF3/CoD etc... I've been looking at 144hz displays but can't figure...
  30. Advice on what to do next with upgrading laptop.

    Here's the service manual for it - http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03593126 According to that manual the max supported ram is 8GB (2x4GB) so there's a chance your 16GB won't work. Only way to find out is install when it comes. Looks like the max CPU supported is an A10-4600m (should...
  31. Intel CPU Rant

    I think that instead of wanting higher speed processors we need to be looking at the software developers and expecting them to utilize more cores. There's a lot to be said about optimizing code for improvements. I know it's not a direct comparison but Apple manages to squeeze more performance...
  32. Very low power consumption 150W max on gaming pc?!

    This is the key - the meter is not reading something correctly here. I see my system swing by at least 150 watts between load and idle when using my Kill-a-Watt.
  33. Best developer desktops I can buy (and have support on?)

    We've had good luck with Dell as well as Lenovo ThinkStations.
  34. When did desktops start using power bricks?

    We run Lenovo machines here at work and our new "tiny" desktops use the same 65W power brick that the laptops do. They are very similar to a laptop internally - pretty much the same CPU, mini WiFi card, and 2.5" SSHD. They have proven to be reliable, quiet, and efficient - plus it's easier to...
  35. KVM switch question

    We use one of these at work for this very purpose: http://amzn.com/B001D1UTC4 . We use it to switch KB/Mouse between 2 computers that are connected to 1 monitor. Then we just switch inputs on the monitor.
  36. VHS to DVD adapter

    I'll 2nd or 3rd the USB devices. I have an EZCAP 116 that I used for this very purpose and it worked great (http://amzn.com/B003YGJLWU). Even includes the capture and encoding software.
  37. Your thoughts on getting a just-right-for-today, not-futureproofed board

    Both have ALC892 audio and I219V LAN... Looks like they are identical chipsets according to ASRock website. Pro4 has better caps and more heatsink around the VRM area. Definitely not an area to skimp on.
  38. need a wired ear buds that could combat the low volume issue of my new phone

    I've had really good luck with Sony Bumpin Buds MDR-EX37B - had my pair for about 2 years and they get pretty loud. Are your headphones OK on other devices? You could always get a Fiio amplifier too.
