  1. Have a look at wireguard VPN as well! I personally use it and it's been fine with FreeNAS. I'm still on 11.1 - not sure if that matters
  2. So I have 2 really old SSD's that are in RAID0. The drives are fine but the motherboard failed that's why I'm trying to get the data. I was running Windows 10 on it if that makes a difference. I've used ReclaiMe Raid Recovery to get the RAID information and UFS Explorer Raid Recovery to Build the Virtual Raid given the sector size and which disk was first. Now, I can see my files through the virtual raid using UFS Explorer and I've also tried copying some files and it worked fine, but I'm trying to figure out how to create an image/iso of the raid array so I can mount it in Windows or see it in Disk Management. The reason why I want the image/iso is because I want to actually clone it to a single SSD using like Macrium or something. I have software on that RAID that I would like to use, and I don't think copy pasting that software would make it work. Thank you!
  3. Depends what "all games" means for you. For AAA like game titles you might want to get the GTX1080 to be able to consistently get 60fps on "all games mostly AAA".
  4. I personally have the Sony MDR1000 but that's cause I got it for a really cheap price. On that note, I'm not saying it's bad. I love it, it's my first noise cancelling headphones. I've also tried the QC35, the bose is definitely more comfortable but looks wise they're both ok to me. I'm not an audiophile of any kind, for me the mdr1000 sounds great and the battery is amazing as well. I heard the PXC 550 can get sweaty around the earl. It's also a design that's not for everyone. You can't go wrong in terms of noise cancelling tho, but I heard (again not an audiophile) that sennheiser is best when it comes to sound quality.
  5. If you can clone it that would be great. I just did a clone on an 8.1 recently as well on a friend's old laptop, but that depends on how much space is the new drive and how much is she using
  6. Any SSD will usually do, especially if it's an old laptop. Then it just depends on brand preference. I like the evo, definitely my first choice for an ssd.
  7. Yeah these z77 boards are going out. I just sold my old z77 extreme4 and it got sold pretty quickly. If all the motherboards you can find are $300+ maybe you can sell your 2500k and get like a 4th gen i5 and a z97 board for the same price?
  8. Kinda important. Sometimes they're already on the case tho, with some extra ones depending on your motherboard size. Which case do you have? Can you take a picture of it?
  9. It's a nice console, but I'd say wait around Christmas time for some bundles if any
  10. Pick whichever you want I bet you'd be happy with whatever route you go as long as you have a budget that you'd follow
  11. Not sure what else it would be. Last time I had a port-forwarding problem was when I didn't know what a double NAT was and I had it LOL Maybe just try creating the server over again?
  12. Yeah seems right. @Enderman might have a point, are you using double NAT?
  13. No not the global IP. The IP of the device hosting the server
  14. What is the IP of the server you're hosting Terraria to? that's where you should forward the port
  15. Looks good and maybe you can use that spare $ to buy more RGB if your client really wants it
  16. I think it's better to go with a higher base if there's no overclocking
  17. damn you just scared me, sounds fun! LOL Thats true, just not willing to spend that much right now. I'll definitely think about it tho. And thanks for the philips screwdriver tip!
  18. Hey guys so I'm starting to notice my card aging so I started overclocking it. Sadly, it reaches thermal throttle speeds really easily I've thought about watercooling it with an AIO and an NZXT G10 but that would make me spend about $120CAD cause I dont have a spare AIO lying around and I don't think it's worth it. I've come across the Arctic Accelero Mono Plus, only about $60CAD. Did some research and it doesn't officially support the GTX980. I saw some people do it on non-officially-supported cards like a 1070/1060 but couldn't find any for the 980. I looked up the specs and it supports up to 200Watts. Since the 980 is a 165W TDP card, should it be able o handle it? Am I missing something? Should I be worried about the VRMs and VRAMs not being cooled enough if I do this? It comes with mini heatsinks aswell so I thought I could use those. It's a reference ASUS gtx980 if that helps. Thanks!
  19. I live west of toronto so buffalo ain't that far. And wow I've never thought of that LOL I'll definitely think about it. Thanks!
