Okay so mine took 54 days since order date till me getting my items in Australia. That's longer than aliexpress purchases. Kinda disappointed in the shipping speed tbh. It took 11 days to fulfill the order from order date plus another 43 days on that since fulfillment. Good quality stuff, don't get me wrong... shipping price ($44 AUD) and speed (54 days) sucks

Thanks I have posted there as well

Hey All, I seem to have a weird issue in which my UniFi AP 6 Lite used to connect via the wired uplink but now doesn’t and will mesh from another access point. It was working for a while just fine, however as I usually do a periodic check in unifi connect I saw that it was no longer using the wired uplink hence this round of trouble shooting. I have 2 other UniFi AC Lites working just fine using wired uplinks. I have tried to turn off meshing in the AP’s settings however it doesn’t connect via the wired link anymore and just will stay isolated if i do that. I have tried factory resetting, no luck I have used a simple cable tester on each of the patch cables and the in wall run which all show as no broken connections, so it’s not that. I am using the POE injector to save my POE switch so i unplugged that and tried to go through the POE switch and still has the same, not using uiplink issue. I have a not been in the roof or climbing around or had any work done in that area or in the roof to damage/disturb the cable (plus there are a bundle of cables running the same length if one was cactus i would assume others were as well) The only thing I can think of at the moment is something to do with the AP 6’s ethernet port is damaged/not working correctly so it can see the power but the data aspect of the connection is not doing anything Anyone got any tips or things I can try??.. Kinda annoying when it is the best AP out of them all and I’m getting sub-par issue with it being the newest as well.

Hey All, Been watching LTT for years but first time jumping on some gear (water bottle/desk pads) Anyway, just wondering as I have my tracking number but it hasn't updated in 7 days (it was purchased 11 days before that) While I understand that they are busy i thought once the tracking number was provided it would at least move to in transit or something on DHL. So my question is does LTT store send out as they get orders or do they wait for a pallet to be sorted or something then have them ship out? Can't say im in a rush for them but just wondering what kind of turn around are people seeing

Sure, i would ideally like the CPU to come in stock first... then i can slap the 1080 in the new rig and get me going... I'm doing some hand me downs for my kid to get him off an older gaming laptop so essentially getting bits anyway What an awesome couple of builds!

Great system you got prepped there and im already jealous you snagged a CPU already

I am genuinely curious on how many others have a PC worth of bits already or in the pipeline for a build where the last components are going to basically be the GPU or CPU of your choice. I have a whole PC basically sitting in their boxes waiting for stock of either 3080 or 5900x What components have you got just sitting there? I guess this is a bit of a build without an actual build and a list without a critique as you already have the vast majority of it lol. For me it would be; Case - Thermaltake T25 TG (Mainly to match the 2 others I have) Fans - About 8 or so 120mm UpHere RGB ring fans (Again to match the other PC's) Storage - Samsung 980pro 250GB, Crucial P1 1TB Motherboard - ASUS Prime x570 CPU Cooler - Corsair ML360R PSU - Silverstone 750w 80plus Gold RAM - 2 x 16GB T-Force Delta RGB 3600MHz dual ranked dies Extras - 10 way Fan Hub

Considering the new cards have just been released you may already be doing this. But what about a video editing comparison on the new Nvidia/AMD cards? I would love to see how both teams stack up within programs such as davinci resolve and premier pro.... output times for a similar video, stack a heap of filters/etc... timeline scrubbing... Taran could make one and just output the same video with each card, he could give his feedback on each and how they feel in program. He also may be able to provide insight on what he feels is the bang for the buck sweet spot card between them all. Could do the same thing within resolve with someone in the office who is versed in that *shrugs*. Heck you could then mash them together in segments (as they both would have the same script anyway).

Thanks mate I'll keep an eye out for Pugets stuff.. i am hopeful, but i would say you are right in Nvidia most likely being where I end up

Hey all, Like a bunch of people i will be upgrading to some new gear. I do a small amount of gaming these days but have been actually doing more video editing from trips, etc. With these new cards there are page after page of gaming benchmarks and synthetics on youtube. I was wondering if there are any good/reputable videos for the new cards specifically centering around video editing? I know that either card I get will be better in gaming than the 1080 i have on my 4K monitor so I'm not too concerned about that so video editing is probably more of a factor for me now. I notice my 1080 chuggs a fair bit in Resolve when working with GoPro footage, hence wanting the GPU upgrade. I am leaning towards a 3070 however there are essentially no FE cards projected to come down under, we had 1 retailer with a handful that were raffled off. So the new Radeon pricing for the 6800 is very competitive when compared to the partner Nvidia cards.

Hey All, Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing issues with booting windows 10 recently? I noticed that recently that my PC will boot past bios and potentially lock up either on the lock screen or just after getting past the lock screen. Essentially I cant use the mouse/keyboard during this time and need to hard power cycle. It doesn't happen every time and once booted i don't have lock ups or issues during use. I have turned off fast start and initially thought through searching that that was the issue, but it has come back again.

I have tried a few but end up back at ubuntu based distros... Mainly because what i want to do most of the time (android building/server) tasks are easily achieved and can be done on a relatively light distro. Anything else, while fun for a little bit become mondane and annoying when you need to hit google/stackoverflow just to get day to day things working on your rig.

Linux can help, depends on what linux distro your looking to use. There would be a lot of preferences out there but lite linux and lubuntu (box based on ubuntu) should be light enough and still be easy to navigate around... if your feeling particularly adventurous you could try puppy linux but there are differing learning curves in doing more than just simple tasks

Not an android computer... its a build computer for dev work

Hey all, I have been using an intel G3528 as the brain for my current NAS setup. Its connected to 2 sets of mirrored 3TB HGST Deskstar 7200rpm drives as well as a 128GB SSD Boot Disk and 128GB download disk (old and punished SSD). This is running Ubuntu 17.04 with access through samba shares. I have been setting up a wired Cat6 LAN network in my house as well as beginning to buy a bunch of 4MP POE cameras to use for a CCTV setup with BlueIris. I will have at the minimum 3 CCTV cameras as of next week with an expansion to probably 6-7 in the future (my POE switch has 8 ports ). I have read that for a setup such as what I'm looking at I will most likely need to use a better CPU. My gaming system at present has a 4790K and my android build PC has a 5820K. I still run builds, probably not as much as I used to, but was thinking of maybe using my 4790K with UnRAID, splitting 1 core&thread to NAS duties and the other 3cores&threads to CCTV duties. Will I be leaving myself short with NAS duties if i run this route? Should I just throw my 5820K in the system instead? If i setup UnRAID will I have to reformat all of my storage disks again? I was thinking of picking up another drive and using another spare SSD i have lying around for CCTV cache and somewhat long term storage (Or am i missing something that I wont be able to confirgure?) Should I pick up an add in NIC for dedicated LAN access to each VM? Thanks all.

While i understand why you are keen to jump on the latest CPU bandwagon, as if you don't do it someone else is going to anyway, but I don't know. It just feels wrong. Weirdly, using a buzz term for it, it does just like, 'fake news.' It just feels over extending and creating a video during the Ryzen buzz just to say you have a video out. You can see why people are pissed and I think you will most likely not make this mistake again. I watch every video and live stream and enjoy the content as a whole but this video could have been better spent on a Ryzen motherboard round up or Ryzen chipset reviews or testing overclocking ability between the B series and X chipsets to see if any performance is gained between them.

Damm dude that is awesome lol

Just bought this myself today as well. Waiting for it to download...

hit up XDA Developers - http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4 have a read through the general thread, there are a couple threads within that have some information about which devices can and cant be rooted to allow for further custom firmware to be flashed

Holy moses... that is one expensive, yet dam fine case you'll have to do system pics for sure. Personally, i would one of those phase change cases, which are about that price.

I have been wanting to sure up my network around the house, with about 20 devices connected if not more at times to wifi across 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz networks, our poor TP-link D7 cops a hammering. I have changed the router to optimize for the best channels on both bands. So I picked up 2 x kits of these D-Link AV2 2000 Gigabit Powerlines. We don't own our house so powerline is all I got for better connectivity. In the future in my own place ill get a 24 port switch and wire the whole house, a mate of mine is a sparky so a case of beer (in his case probably protein powder haha) and ill be good I also picked up 2 of the TP-Link 5 port gigabit switches (cheapest ones), nothing special but they work perfectly. Further picked up 2 x 2M Cat6e cables, 1 x 5m Cat6e cables, and 3 x Cat6es with 2 x Cat5e (both of those cat5e's came with the powerline adaptors). Attached a powerline at the router, my desk, my room and one to the satelite television. put a switch in the room to mediapc/NASpc, PS4 & a further cable to my laptop (when im in there) put the other to the desk attached to my build rig, gaming rig and RPi2. Seeing speed improvements from 4mb/s while on wifi (close to router) to up to 58Mb/s on the powerline from 2 i7 based PC's... the dual core media/Nas PC still see's lower with maybe around 9Mb/s weirdly (potentially CPU bottleneck???)

if your using windows 10, you can actually re-install windows and it will activate itself. If you upgraded from windows 8.1 or whatever your key will be a generic key. if your laptop is one from like acer or whatever, you may be able to restore windows back to factory settings. may even have a windows backup point that u could restore from a few days ago? failing that use a program like ccleaner and clean out some of your old junk files, etc. Have a look at what is in your start-up list, see if there a useless programs eating your cpu. check and see what is running away, 4gb is not a whole lot, it may be getting filled rather easily...

So I took everyone's advice on board and read further. At this time I decided to ditch raid altogether regarding raid 1 (which is all I was going to do due to needing to stick with windows at this time anyway) and just set up 2 sets of like drives. I did this due to not having perfect environment of multiple storage drives and a best case filesystem. If I had run raid 1, if raid fails I could still lose almost everything. I decided that I would use 1 desktop drive and setup media files commonly accessed through home group shares. On one of the Nas drives I placed more important document files and photos. I will also set local shares. I configured firewall rules to limit sharing (although in widows it says to everyone) only to 5 local ip address and I actually have incoming connections blocked on all other both internal and external ip's to the pc. I then setup a batch system that will mirror the contents of the desktop drive to the second desktop drive and the Nas drive to the other Nas drive based on what has changed filesystem wise and content wise as if it is more of a backup I guess rather than a concurrent write at the time. Why? Well I guess for raid 1 I didn't necessarily need the immediate write to 2 disks. Further this (from what I can gather) will limit unnecessary read/writes on the second disks for which the primary disk will be taking the brunt of the daily work load, in serving content to the TV, as well as sharing that content to all others on the network. I only add maybe a few files per day so a once daily at like 3am script will be all I need right now. I have been researching a powerline adaptor, but to see best results I would need one on the modem end and 2 (1 to where my gaming and building pcs are) and the second to where the TV is. I still want to do a proper Nas and I will in the future for sure thanks to all who threw in their thoughts/ideas
