The Windows 10 software fastboot option is enabled by default. However before the update I would not see the Windows logo and just go straight from POST into the login screen. Now however I get to wait at the Windows logo for a short while, and boot times are longer than with the setting enabled. So the motherboard UEFI option to me still looks like the faster option.

After not having used my pc for the past year all I could think about was firing it up and starting gaming again. As expected there were many updates to be installed, but after installing the 1709 update, my pc reboots to a black screen or continuously shows a frozen post screen. After a few reboots Windows decides to undo the update and I'm back again with my desktop and everything working. After this happened a few times I decided I'd just reinstall Windows and be done with it. I make a new bootable USB drive aaand it boots to a black screen when trying to install Windows. I decide to dive into UEFI and disable the Windows 8 features ( fastboot and secure boot ) and I'm fully able to update and reinstall Windows without any black screens. Enabling fastboot and putting an old Windows 10 ISO on the USB drive also installs perfectly, until Windows forces itself to update again. So, from what I can gather, is that the Windows 10 1709 update breaks fastboot with my motherboard (MSI Z77A-G45). I'm on the latest UEFI firmware, my VBIOS is updated, I've reset CMOS. No matter what I try, I can't get fastboot to work with the latest Windows update. Does anybody have an idea what could be a solution to this problem? Or am I just doomed in running Windows 10 without fastboot from now on?

Hi I'm currently trying to setup a plex media server on my nas. Unfortunately, with my current situation, I have no local access to the NAS or the home network but I do have VPN access with local network sharing enabled. Problem is, when entering the Plex web-UI through UnRaid the plex-app doesn't want to see the unconfigured media server. This is apparently because my IP adress ( 10.8.0.6 ) is not in the same subnet as the server ( 192.168.1.10 ). Is there a way for me to "spoof" my IP or configure the Asus VPN server in such a way that I'm added to the local subnet ( 192.168.1.0 )? Sincerely, Isocadia

Would be incredible to have since the room I often put a rental projector in always manages to get peoples heads in the bottom of the screen

Well, the PS4 does Uncharted 3 1080p 60fps, which I wouldn't call a "ultra-low" quality game. Most game will probably run fine with just some lighting and shadow effects removed and some polygon/viewdistance reduction. I think that having PS3 quality games like The Last of Us or Uncharted 3 in 90fps or 120fps in VR will have a much bigger wow effect than the slightly better image quality we have now at 30fps...

I have been using the dot for a while, and I don't miss the "go to first unread" button at all. Seems the perfect solution for quick access to both OP and first unread.

They charge around 110 euro's for building, installation and delivery. What specs would you recommend getting based on the specifications they supply, maybe if I only alter them I bit I can still get some sort of discount

These aren't my only choices, they can build anything else, it's just that they say they give a small discount on these specific systems. I could spend 1599, but if it is possible to get the same amount of FPS for less then I would rather have a different build, even if that means I don't get a discount.

Alright, before everybody starts to flame the fact that I want a prebuild, I really don't want to build the PC myself. I really don't so don't try to convince me. I have a store nearby which builds computers and then gives a minimum warranty of 3 years on the system and extended warranty on the parts where they apply, which I really like. The thing that I need help with is choosing exactly which configuration I want, because they offer a small discount on their pre-configured PC's of which I've listed the specs below. Do these prebuild machines give me the most FPS I can get for my money taking into the consideration that they are being build for me, or should I aim for a completely different setup. I want the HDD and SSD space etc, what I mostly wonder about is the CPU and GPU combo etc. The rig will only be used for 1080p and future 1440p gaming and some office work etc. Nothing of the rendering sorts etc. Anyway, thanks in advance for the help. I know that everybody will want to convince me to build the pc myself, but I really want the warranty and the guarantee they give me that the system will be working fine and the help they offer when something goes wrong.

I have no idea whether this has already been stated, or that I am just to blind to find it, but I would love to see the "Go to first unread post" button in topics again. I'm having a lot of trouble to resume reading threads since I can't remember where I left off Isocadia

They haven't announced the patreon officially. I found it through a tweet from Berkel. Last news was they were planning on announcing it somewhere these months

If you want to upgrade now ( though I would wait for Pascal/Polaris ), why not buy a used 670 and SLI? Here in the Netherlands I still come across functioning 670's for about 100 eur.

I did the exact same thing, but luckily I was able to sell it to a friend of mine while I was building his PC haha.

What do you do when your parents want over 6TB of network storage and you love assembling computers? You start looking on how to build your own NAS ofcourse. So that's exactly what I did. So, I came up with the following part list: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Pentium G4400 3.3GHz Dual-Core Processor (€64.90) Motherboard: Asus B150M-K D3 Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard (€64.90) Memory: Corsair XMS3 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3-1600 Memory (Purchased For €0.00) Storage: Western Digital WD Green 2TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive (€81.90) Storage: Western Digital WD Green 2TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive (€81.90) Storage: Western Digital WD Green 2TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive (€81.90) Storage: Western Digital WD Green 2TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive (€81.90) Case: Fractal Design Node 804 MicroATX Mid Tower Case (Purchased For €60.00) Power Supply: SeaSonic 450W 80+ Gold Certified ATX Power Supply (€86.90) Case Fan: Fractal Design SSR3-140-WT 56.1 CFM 140mm Fan (€9.45) Case Fan: Fractal Design SSR3-140-WT 56.1 CFM 140mm Fan (€9.45) Total: €623.20 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2016-01-08 09:06 CET+0100 Intel Pentium G4400 + Asus B150M-K D3: I want the system to use as little power as possible while being powerfull enough to transcode a single semi-high bitrate bluray rip. Also the motherbord has 6 Sata ports which is really the minimum, though I would prefer 8 or 10. The RAM I still have lying around and the Node 804 has been bought second hand. Since the NAS is going to be used for semi-professional storage of business files, I want to have a reliable PSU with a high efficiency, which is why I went for the Seasonic. I'm gonna start out with 4 2TB drives in software RAID 5 ( still looking into which OS specifically, either openmediavault, unRAID or FreeNAS though for the last I would have to buy ECC RAM ) but the array will be expanded in the future when needed ( probably over the course of a year or two ). The reason I went with WD Blue's is because RED's are quite expensive in the Netherlands and since I'm going software RAID I'm not sure I need TLER etc. The two extra fans are for cooling the HDD section of the node 804. So, any recommendations from more experienced NAS builders? It's my first time looking into NAS like systems so I'm not 100% aware of all the possibilities so ofcourse I'm checking with the community
