  2. Question Gaming laptop recommendations

    Hi all, My daughter is currently using one of my old workstations for light gaming (Xeon X5650, 24 GB RAM, GT730 graphic card). My wife is complaining that the computer takes too much space and would like me to find an affordable laptop as replacement. My daughter would use the computer mostly...
  3. Dell Latitude 5580, unusually slow?

    As mentioned above, a SSD will likely fix your issue. I have a Dell Inspiron 11 that was extremely slow and was barely usable, it turns out the hard drive was the problem. It had a slow 500GB hard drive that I replaced with a SSD and it was like having a brand new computer. My kids use it all...
  4. Are business laptops generally the best for students?

    I cannot speak for all the older Thinkpad, but I know the T460 have a much better battery life than the T430 for example. The newer processors are more efficient, also the battery size might be different.
  5. Are business laptops generally the best for students?

    I have a Thinkpad T460, I got it for less than $400 on ebay (FHD, i5-6300U, 8gb RAM, SSD) with over 1 year of warranty left. It is a great machine, not the lightest, but very robust and very good battery life. I would say that it would be ideal for a student. I upgraded the memory to 16GB abd...
  6. Question Lenovo t450s - Do you think this is a hardware or software issue?

    This is a weird issue and I am glad you were able to fix it. I have a Thinkpad T460 (i5-6300U, FHD, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) running windows 10 pro and I have never experienced any of the issues you mentioned with it. It is a good machine, I was considering upgrading to a T480 this year and get a...
  7. Question If you had a laptop with a missing bottom case and zero way to purchase a new one what would you use?

    You could 3D print one. I would love to here about this new, not yet available laptop!
  8. What is (are) your favorite desktop environment(s)?

    Posting from Ubuntu Mate, which is my favorite desktop environment and distro.
  9. Question Is it bad to keep the case open?

    I will echo the previous comments, you will have no issue keeping the case open for a while.

    Here is the result using my old dual Xeon workstation (16 cores, 32 threads) ------------------------------ encoded 1806 frames in 416.47s (4.34 fps), 11820.04 kb/s, Avg QP:29.09 HandBrake 1.1.2 (2018090500) - 64bit OS: Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.17134.0 - 64bit CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690...
  11. Upgrade Dell Precision T3500 to Windows 10?

    I have a T3500 (X5650 with 24GB RAM) running Windows 10 without any issue. You should be fine.
  12. Intel "Coffee Lake" Builders Thread

    8700k for sale on ebay for... $999 starting price. I am wondering how many were available for sale today. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Core-i7-8700K-Coffee-Lake-6-Core-3-7-GHz-LGA-1151-300-Series-95W-BX80684-/272874869966?hash=item3f889c14ce:g:bO0AAOSw22dZ1ef5
  13. Intel "Coffee Lake" Builders Thread

    What a disappointing launch and day! I took off work and drove to MicroCenter in Houston, and came back with nothing but wasted time! I should have called before going. I will wait for the CPU to be available before buying the mother board and memory. I am guessing it's going to be at least a...
  14. Intel "Coffee Lake" Builders Thread

    It looks like it is store pick up only and, I checked Houston's store and it is sold out. This is a very frustrating launch, I am considering picking up a 1800x at $349 from MicroCenter...
  15. Intel "Coffee Lake" Builders Thread

    Microcenter has the 8700K for ... $499!!!! http://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.aspx?Ntt=8700k
  16. Apple A11 Bionic performance

    This is fascinating, I really like seeing this level of performance in a mobile device, and I hope the performance gap between smartphones and laptop will keep decreasing. I also hope Snapdragon processors will catch up as I am not an Apple person at all. I look forward to running large finite...
  17. 1800x for $399 at NewEgg, 1700x is $309.

    The 1800x had been at $349 at micro center for a while. The 1700x is at $299. Those prices are looking good! http://www.microcenter.com/product/485473/Ryzen_7_1700X_34_GHz_8_Core_AM4_Boxed_Processor http://www.microcenter.com/product/485483/Ryzen_7_1800X_36_GHz_8_Core_AM4_Boxed_Processor
  18. What were the specs of your first computer?

    Mine was a 80286, 12.5 MHz, I think it had 640Kb of RAM and a 40MB hard drive. It had an hercules screen (single yellowish color, with pixels on, off or increased brightness). I remember being able to install Windows 3.0 with that limited screen. I then upgraded to a color VGA monitor. I wish I...
  19. Which of these 2 processors are much better for a laptop?

    I would suggest you replace the hard drive (likely a slow 5400 RPM) with a 128GB SSD right away if speed and responsiveness is of importance for you.
  20. Dual XEON 2696 v4 Workstation Build for Machine Vision, Gaming, Video Editing & Trading Build Log

    I would agree with this, I realize that it depends on the workflow, but I would not use less than 4GB per core (my workflow includes lots of FEA simulations), my dual E5-2690 has 16 cores and 8GB of memory per core.
  21. Dual XEON 2696 v4 Workstation Build for Machine Vision, Gaming, Video Editing & Trading Build Log

    Wow, awesome workstation, that's gonna be a beast! I look forward to seeing the benchmark results.
  22. Windows 7 or Windows 10?

    Changes are always difficult. Windows 10 is different, but it is a great OS and you will get used to it very quickly. I would definitely get windows 10 if I were you.
  23. Hey Deeds, how about 3 terabytes of RAM?

    It would cost $75k if it was sold by Apple. It would be nice to have macOS on custom hardware though. Maybe one day Apple will realize that it would make sense to license their OS to other manufacturers.
  24. WIndows 10 issue... about to give up

    Yes, I have disabled windows update peer-to-peer, I would not mind windows doing its maintenance work if it stopped when I start to use the machine. I is so bad that I can't even play a youtube video... Out of frustration, I ended up formatting my SSD and reinstalling windows, I got rid of...
  25. WIndows 10 issue... about to give up

    I need to get my frustration out of my system and hopefully get possible solutions short of re-installing windows. I have a fairly fresh install of windows 10 (~ 2 months), it was an upgrade from windows 7 pro. Everything was working smoothly until about 1 week ago. Here is the issue, so...
  26. Ubuntu 16.04: Which Nvidia graphics drivers to use (not nouveau)?

    Ubuntu should provide you with a couple of options for proprietary drivers for your NVidia card. You can easily switch from the nouveau drivier to an official NVidia drivier on the administrative menu. Not sure where the settings are located in Ubuntu as I am using Ubuntu Mate. Search for the...
  27. My cheap pre-built PC purchase

    That's a pretty good deal, these off-lease PCs can be great, fit the use of many users and save them a ton of money along the way. I love to see those machines having a second life. Enjoy your new Windows 10 PC!
  28. Windows 10: Turn off snap to corner keep snap to side and snap to maximize

    It only does that when you slide your window on the top of the screen, When you go from one screen to the other, move the window slightly down and away from the top of the screen and it should go right through.
  29. Who's buying a 6 core Coffee Lake CPU? (Poll Inside)

    Some applications are so memory bandwidth dependent that more and slower cores with quad-channel memory will out perform a CPU with less but faster cores. The gain will definitely depend on the workflow. For example, my E5-1650V2 @ 3.5GHz with DDR3-1333 out-performs my i7-6700K @ 4.2GHz with...
  30. Hey Deeds, how about 3 terabytes of RAM?

    I want one! It would give me good Cinebench bragging rights!
  31. Waiting for my Notebook to come.

    Awesome! No driver issues? I know the wifi chips can sometimes give me a hard time on laptops in linux, I usually use Xubuntu or more recently Ubuntu Mate.
  32. Ancient Rebuild

    If the computer will only be used for internet browsing, email and light office work, then a light version of linux is definitely the way to go. You will likely get smoother performance and all the software will come pre-installed.
  33. Waiting for my Notebook to come.

    As long as you have a version of Windows 10 activated on the laptop, you should be able to wipe the HDD and reinstall Windows 10 anytime in the future (when you want to sell). If you want a fast way to recover Windows 10, then having an disk image stored somewhere is a good idea. Another option...
  34. Apple A11 is 6 core (2+4)

    Can the geekbench scores of desktop CPUs and phone CPUs be compared? I am really curious about whether the A11 is comparable to a modern x86 CPU in terms of raw power. My Xeon E5-1650 V2 gets ~3400 ST and 16,500 MT with Geekbench 4.1.1.
  35. Want! WantWantwant!

    Interesting concept and a good evolution path for smartphone. But just thinking about the price makes me cringe....
  36. Apparently sitting will kill you

    Well, there not much I can do then... I guess lying down would not help either ;)
  37. Forgot ninja warrior

    Impressive!
  38. Apparently sitting will kill you

    I read that this morning, I'm still sitting at my computer... but depressed... I think walking every 30 minutes or so would lower my productivity. I've been thinking of using a stand-up workstation, maybe now is the time.
  39. Apple A11 is 6 core (2+4)

    This is in direct contradictions with all the claims that Apple's AXX processors are closing in on desktop CPUs in terms of raw computing power... with some online articles saying that it could power the next generation macbooks. A full desktop OS is a lot more resources hungry than iOS! I am...
  40. Windows 10 or Windows 10 setup just wont load

    I had a similar issue on a Dell T5500, at boot up the bios complained that 1 memory stick (not always the same one) was returning an error, I opened the case and removed all the RAM sticks (9x8GB DDR3 ECC) and remounted them several times and the issue was fixed. I guess there might be some...
