  1. Hey all Just got a chromecast and I am currently streaming netflix/twitch to my tv however I want to use my pc audio (gaming headset) and not my tv shitty speakers Cant for the life of me figure out how to do this any advice woulds be greatly appreciated thank you
  2. Hey all, I have this AIO cooler that I am reusing and I can't quite figure it out. Do I need a backplate or do I just simply screw it into the motherboard? There is no manual. Thanks
  3. Okay I just found this specs are here seems to support every thing doesnt it?
  4. hmm ok interesting, how do I know if it supports ecc memory? For example, this board says ddr3 1600 memory supported... does it have to specifically state ecc support?
  5. this is pretty decent thank you for this, I will have a look around ebay
  6. Yeah im starting to feel that way when you say "standard form factor" do you mean to fit into standard atx cases? because I dont plan on using a case if that makes a difference
  7. Hey, I currently have a xeon w3690, 24gb ddr3 1600 ecc ram and a gtx 1060 lying around and wanted to make a cheap desktop All I need is a motherboard. Does anyone know of or can reccomend a cheap motherboard that could support all these 3 components? I am having trouble finding one. The cpu socket is lga1366. I have found a few old server ones but I remember seeing something in a previous thread about the pcie lanes not good enough for a 1060 (my knowledge is somewhat limited so I am not sure the validity of this) Thanks
  8. oops forgot to list 6600k 16gb ddr4 Ram gtx 1080 not sure if relevant but OS is on ssd
  9. Hey, Every time I put a YouTube or twitch video full screen it starts to lag. It works perfectly fine when in theater or normal view. I have 2 indentical 1080p monitors. Normal videos that are played through VLC work as normal it's only when I am on browser. I currently use chrome. Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this it is very annoying. Thanks. e/ think i fixed it, my tv was also plugged in but not on. As soon as I unplugged it seems to have fixed.

  14. Yeah this is nice also, but the z800 looks like my best option
  15. Like i would need to acquire a different 24 pin mobo connector etc? the motherboard mounting I can handle
  16. Hey all, struggling to find a decent 2x socket 1366 mobo with pcie slots im using 2x xeon w3690 been looking at ebay and the best price vs performance mobo that I could find thus far that also looks good is the z800 here is a link: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-HP-Z800-Workstation-Motherboard-Systemboard-Dual-LGA-1366-576202-001-/230658365549 anyone ever used this board or see any problems I may occur? I have built several pcs before but never on the xeon side of things.
  17. thank you, when i did some research I had no idea what I was looking at
  18. xOnly reason I ask is that someone is selling them to me 38x for $200. They are all working, so I was gonna mess around with them but would it be too difficult for someone with zero experience with server related setups?
  19. Hey, thinking about making a NAS what would I need to run these types of drives? Seagate Cheetah NS.2 SCSI 600GB 10K RPM Thanks.
  20. The ad doesn't say anything about not working which I would of thought is something you would say, just says removed from old NAS, he has 38x for sale, surely all 38 arent working.
  21. Wow okay I had no idea,I am going to assume not then, are they enterprise quality? , its 4 am atm so I cant ask him
  22. Seagate Cheetah NS.2 SCSI 600GB 10K RPM They are selling for $5 each, in good condition apparently Does this seem like a good deal? Are these HDDs good for a NAS or desktop? was looking to get a few From a local listing Thanks
  23. Got a guy selling 2x Titan X maxwells in good condition for the same price as I could sell my 1080. Is this a good deal?
