So I had everything working on my machine, then after going to the software update checker and updating there I tried restarting the system, after that everything slowly started going to shit, I have now reinstalled the system 2 times total. Now the screen is glitching, typing this here seems like its taking so much longer and is delayed, and almost like my screen is lagging with a high ping 400+, on the side of my browser the icons are poping in and out of existence, and general lagging, switching tabs sometimes goes back to the previous one before going back to the one i switchd to, also my second monitor has stopped begin detected after that update

Hello, new user so sorry if this has already been suggested… would it be possible to add DAW benchmarks into your CPU testing? As of right now the music production community doesn’t really have anyone doing this, at least not easy to find and consistently updating with new CPUs. adding a Ableton and another DAW benchmark would be AMAZING and would help A LOT in terms of trying to build the a new music production PC. latency when tracking with plugins and VST’s is still a major problem for home producers who don’t have the outboard equipment to offload the work from the CPU. I don’t think it would add that much work to your benchmarks but at the same time you could potentially get a LOT of traffic to your videos from “ Music “ people. As of right now no one’s really tackled this testing to my knowledge…. anyways love your videos.

Remember when Nvidia cut loose one of their top board partners because they wanted to start producing ATi cards as well?..... I wonder what the incentive to move to only Nvidia was, it seems from an outsider's perspective that their partners are treated worse.

It makes you wonder if after all the claims of NVIDIA having tiny margins for AIBs, perhaps AMD are just as bad but due to smaller sales its even less worthwhile for AIBs to bother?

Hey guys, I ran into a bit of an issue. I am running custom windows storage server. Rig: AMD Threadripper threadripper 1900x 32 gigs of ram random low power gpu just for troubleshooting. Mostly we connect to it via a network. windows Server 2019 40gb sfp+ card, that connects to a 40gb sfp+ port on our switch I didn't want to fuss with Linux, unraid or other software, since windows server works fine. I have a mix and mash of different capacity drives that are pooled using Stablebit drivepool. And we have 2 instances of dropbox running on the server as 2 users. Not sure where to even begin setting something like that on other software. We mostly use it for storage backup, so there is no issue with the capacity or throughput. Recently I bought Seagate Exos X16 Sas 16TB Enterprise hard disk. Didn't read the description, so didn't realize it was a SAS drive before it came. So I taught ok, and ordered LSI 9200-8i card. I got an adapter for it, since the cable it comes with does not have the SAS connector, only SATA. That did not work. So I ordered another cable, thinking maybe the adapter didn't work. I got the Startech Sas808782p50 mini sas cable. Connected that one to the LSI card, to the Exos drive and to power. But nope, still nothing in windows. Not sure how to troubleshoot it at all. I do have one drive that is connected to the LSI through the original sata cable, and the LSI shows in the device manager: Anyone that knows more about this than me that can help? Thanks!

or open air frame. I dont know of any that are designed to support server boards, but you can always get a big slab of wood (or any other material), and sink some standoffs. Or get some random chassis from ebay. Depend on the actual chassis its .. well, about $300, but why do you even have this board in the first place It's not eATX or EEB, I don't know what you are talking about. Those two are 12x13 inch, that look way longer than 13 inch. You know it's not intended for a normal case when you see the board cutout and the custom PCIe risers. eATX, EEB (and MEB and CEB) are all square(ish) so they can be fit in like a ordinary case.

The limit is the available space in the device. Cool on top, at 3cm I think the top part would be hot, if it was like 15cm tall then sure. But I think that 3cm arent that tall

Casio still makes ribbons, rollers, and paper for their adding machines for the same reason.

I've also done that on massive speakers but the tiny sensitive coil of the compression driver would instantly vaporize from a whopping nine volts

Yeah that's what I would typically do, but that is really tricky with a compression horn. The actual diaphragm is probably the size you'd find in a good pair of IEMs, albeit with a much larger magnet - the actual driver moves a tiny amount of air which is then amplified by the horn. Since the work the driver does is so incredibly small, I can't discern any difference from the polarity.

Some sites are safe and some are not. We are not allowed to talk about those sites here in LTT Forum, its against rules.

Back in my age days, I used to plop 9v batteries to each terminal to see how much of a noise (more like a pop) made to find out polarity. Not sure if it was the correct move lol

i'm looking to buy windows but I am not sure is buying it from 3th party websites safe.

Yeah I just did to my system couple of hours ago. Unraid is unnecessary IMO. Other than that HW selection looks good. Have fun.

Unless there's some circuitry involved before the speaker driver, you can just try it both ways and see which sounds better. Flipping polarity doesn't hurt it, it just causes the speaker to take a hit to audio quality and volume as it's now firing in reverse (sort of)

I think they would be more unhappy if there were scratches on the circuit board and the pci-e connectors, on important parts. Small scratches on the surface of the fan heatsink, that shouldn't bother them (atleast I hope so).

Do you host munera every time new mods get promoted or does it change each time?

Only because that's a Japanese brand and Japanese government offices still use it and need the ribbons.

After going through a bunch of Monoprice interconnect issue's, I'll never buy a Monoprice product again. I ended up throwing out five brand new unopened XLR and RCA interconnects and not to mention the ones that were in and out of the home theater system. Don't even want them near my house. Garbage products.

Banned because I'm currently building kilometers of conveyor belts*, and I'm starting to worry about my sanity.

Do you mean a firmware update for the ssd? It does sound like it went bad. Have you tried to test it in another pc? Do you still have warranty for it?
