Okay. Thank you so much. You took away my concern of investing quite a bit of money for a 10gbit switch and then still beeing limited by the routers 1gbit speed. Now I can finally start ordering all the componets. I really hope everything goes fine Thanks to both of you for your help.

Okay thanks fo your help, you cleared up some of my confusion.

Thanks for your answer helped me a lot. Since I am quite the beginner when it comes to networking I don't really know anything about subnetting. My current setup is a cheap Tp-link switch (https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Ethernet-Optimization-Unmanaged-TL-SG108/dp/B00A121WN6) that connects my PCs and the NAS. What I undersand from your respons is as long as the switch is capable of layer 3 routing I should be fine. Is that correct? I'm sorry if I didn't understand your answer correctly.

Hi everyone, I am quite the novice when it comes to networking. However, I would like to install a 10gbit network in my flat, since my NAS and my 2 PCs are both capable of 10gbit. I read some articles a watch some videos so I know there is going to be a lot of work ahead of me. While reading those articles I got a bit confused about a couple of things. First of the difference between Cat6a and Cat7. I have read that Cat7 is more or less Cat6a with better shielding. However, if you use an RJ45 connector on a Cat7 cable you would loose those shielding benefits and therefore Cat7 is not really an option for a home network. I would like to know if that is true, since Cat6a cable is cheaper than Cat7 cable and would reduce the costs of my project. And my second question would be regarding the combination of a 1gbit router and a 10gbit switch. In the attached picture is a simplified network diagram that reflects the situation in the planed network. From my ISP I get a modem/router/wifi combo unit with 1gbit ports. So if I connect my router to the switch and my NAS and PCs to the switch will I then be limitted to 1gbit transfer between my PC and NAS or do I still get a 10Gbit link between the two? Thanks in advance for your helpfull answers.

If you are a computer enthusiast there is no reason why you shouldn't have a SSD. Faster boot times, faster load times, faster file sharing, ... those are just a few benefits of an SSD so why are you still running a HDD?

Yay finally won something

if i turn the core frequency up by like30-50 mhz I get artifacts

1537mhz while gaming thx for the fast reply

Hello everyone, I'm relatively new to overclocking. I flowed a guide from the forums (https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/403328-nvidia-amd-graphics-card-overclocking-guide/). I got a stable overclock of +225 on core and +500 on mem without touching the voltage. so my question is if this is a good overclock and how much more can i get out of the card if i increase the voltage.
