    AMD vs Intel with ECC RAM support for Proxmox host with TrueNAS Scale and plex etc

    Well, upon further research it seems that ECC support on AM5 is a bit more widespread now and motherboards like the Asus B650 TUF become surprisingly cheap options. I'd lose IPMI compared to the other options but I'd be saving £200-£400 on the motherboard alone compared to the Asrock Rack and...

    AMD vs Intel with ECC RAM support for Proxmox host with TrueNAS Scale and plex etc

    So, the time has come for me to upgrade from my trust HP Microsever which runs TrueNAS core at the moment, and I'm planning to go down the Proxmox, HBA pass-through for TrueNAS scale route on my new server, as I plan to use more VM's and containers to reduce some other physical hardware, in a...

    Change to MM access after 1st January 2024

    I feel like some people don't understand that there are a lot of people who may only look at a small number of the sub-forums and ignore a lot the others due to them not being of interest or simply not tech related in the areas of which some users are interested. Lets say you're interested in...

    Change to MM access after 1st January 2024

    Sucks for those of us who've been here for years (this is my second account before someone says ah but you haven't been here 'that long' as my first was lost due to being tied to an ISP's email address I had 15 years ago), but there are many of us who mostly lurk and ingest and have done for...

    In-Win Dubili any further info/possible release news?

    As per the title, has In-Win mentioned anything about the release time frame/date of the Dubili case it showed at CES in January? Like that stainless industrial aesthetic, and plenty of space for a custom water cooling setup in there too.

    Windows 10 21H2 - WSL Ubuntu install never completing problem

    So I recently got a new work laptop, and I want to setup WSL on it so I can use Ubuntu for my Linux administration work. Here's a brief over view of what I've done; Ran a prompt as Administrator, Ran wsl --install (this completed fine) Rebooted the laptop Ran wsl --update to ensure it was the...

    On Intel Raptor Lake, any truth to the rumors that disabling all e-cores hurts single threaded performance of the p-cores??

    From what I've heard from the Star Citizen players with the frame rates using 12th and 13th gen Intel, it wasn't so much the raw peak FPS that was the problem, but random hitching, freezes and stutters. All of which went away when you used something like ProcessLasso to force the game to only...

    On Intel Raptor Lake, any truth to the rumors that disabling all e-cores hurts single threaded performance of the p-cores??

    Star Citizen really likes CPU resources and spawning threads, and on the hybrid chips it will put threads on the E cores and then you get stutters due to it having to wait on the slower cores. However people have tested and you don't have to disable the E cores, you should use Process Lasso and...

    Ryzen 7950X3D, 7900X3D, 7800X3D

    Are they definitely releasing a 13900KS or will they just go with the refresh in Q3? which I believe is a refinement rather than new architecture. Unless AMD's performance gains here are more than they're letting on, I'm not sure there's much point in a KS product this gen unless it's something...

    Ryzen 7950X3D, 7900X3D, 7800X3D

    The performance difference between CCD's 'should' be a lot closer than P vs E cores though. That tom's article mentioning 'AMD is working with Microsoft on Windows optimizations that will work in tandem with a new AMD chipset driver to identify games that prefer the increased L3 cache capacity...

    Ryzen 7950X3D, 7900X3D, 7800X3D

    This is my worry too, 1 CCD having stack 3D cache and the other not, and the OS unlikely to know or care which core on which CCD gets a task. As you say, not as bad as Intel's P/E cores setup, so the performance difference between running on the different CCD's shouldn't be as drastic. (Of...

    Lian Li O11 EVO

    Tempted to get a Lian-Li 011 Evo to transplant one of my builds into, but trying to decide on Grey or Black. Problem is, the Grey looks like a different colour/shade in almost ever picture I've seen of it. In some it looks almost silver and others darker and closer to gunmetal. Has anyone got...

    New Dell IPS S2721DGF 165hz gaming monitor

    I keep eyeing one of these up as a second monitor for my main pc and/or primary monitor for my second pc, but it seems the panel lottery is pretty bad, delivery time is a best a joke and the price can vary quite a bit. Tempted to grab one of those Gigabyte M27Q instead. Only 144hz but seems it...

    New Alienware Q3 2020

    I've seen a couple of people mention that the AW2721D doesn't have an sRGB clamp, so for none HDR content you're stuck with over saturated colours. I'm a bit confused though, because I definitely remember their product page for it on Dell's website listing sRGB mode. However I just checked and...

    RYZEN 5000 SERIES NOW ONLINE - 5950X, 5900X, 5800X & 5600X COMING NOV 5TH AT 5PM **NO COMPETITORS**

    Well, just to add insult to injury after having had the CPU in my basket while it was in stock, getting through checkout, paypal and then crashing at confirmation page TWICE, when I finally did get an order to go through and the CPU was now pre-order, it appears that PayPal having taken the...

    alienware AW3418DW Availability in the UK?

    Anyone who streams, play games in 16:9 borderless windowed mode and have chat and obs etc or either side of the game? Wondering if that would be a useful single monitor way for games like Overwatch.

    alienware AW3418DW Availability in the UK?

    Does this monitpr support 1:1 pixel mapping? So if a game doesn't support 21:9 you can just run it at 2560x1440 instead (with black side bars of course).

    AOC Q3279VWF - FreeSync,VA,qHD 31.5 inch monitor for £249! (ONLY £199 AT OcUK FOR BLACK FRIDAY)!!

    So what is the overall verdict on this monitor? Seems like most people like it, and while it's slower than an IPS panel, it still pretty decent. Also, any word on 75hz working with nvidia cards? I'd imagine it doesn't show that refresh rate as an option on nvidia cards you could probably just...

    Steelcase Leap V1

    With how much the price of the V2's has gone up compared to a year ago, part of me thinks that maybe going all in on/for a Gesture or a Embody would actually be the wiser decision.
