  1. I am using vnc viewer. I am slide using this machine for storage. Is setting up a way to transfer files between my main Windows 10 machine to the Linux server easy?
  2. What would the advantages of using Linux be? I know it's a popular OS for servers but I'm used to Windows. Is it really that easy to use?
  3. The one I found is called TightVNC i5 4590, 8GB RAM, Windows 10 It's a Minecraft server so I'm not too worried about it Onboard graphics for an i5 4590
  4. So I want to put my computer im using as a server in a closet with just Ethernet running to it. But whenever there isn't a monitor plugged into the computer remote access will not work. Is there a way to get around this without plugging a monitor into it?
  5. So I am working in a Dell prebuilt office computer. It has one HDD and a DVD drive. When I opened it up I found two normal data SATA cables and there was only one normal SATA power cable. Going into the DVD drive is one mini SATA power cable. The power cable attaches into the motherboard in a mini 6 pin connector and splits off into a normal SATA power and mini SATA power. Is it possible to buy an adapter or different cable? Or is this system limited to one drive?
  6. I want to remotely access it remotely locally on the same network at home. I want to put the tower some place I can’t hear it as well
  7. I ordered a used office/school computer off eBay with a i5 4590, 8GB RAM, and a 2TB HDD at a good price. I also ordered a 500GB SSD to use as the boot drive. I want to use this sever for storing media, running a small Minecraft server, and Plex. How should I get started? Should I use Windows 10 or Linux? What do I use for remote access?
  8. Unpacking assets is a cpu and storage task
  9. I have been looking into getting a home server just to try some things. I wanted to do things like running a Minecraft server off of it, doing one of those Raspberry Pi ad blocker servers, or using it for Plex. Is using a Raspberry Pi 4 for Plex or a MC server feasible? Or am I over gauging the capabilities of a Raspberry Pi 4? If so, what are my other options?
  10. I have been looking into purchasing a tv to do some of my casual gaming on. I am only planning on spending under $250 on a 40-50” tv. I saw this refurbished tv on sale on Newegg and it doesn’t look like a bad deal. Is it really 120hz or is it motion interpolation? Should I get this or shoot for a 4K 60hz tv?
  11. i wanted rtx minecraft now tho
  12. Should I get a 2070 Super for $500 or a water cooled RTX 2080 for $570?
  13. I can't decide what RTX 2070 Super to go with. Are the reference cards quiet and cool? Or should I go for a 3 fan card from like Gigabyte?
  14. Hello currently I am running a r7 3700x, 16GB CL14 3200mhz, and a GTX 1070 on a 1080p 180hz G-sync monitor. I have been hitting 60fps on most games but I want a little more. Since I play a lot of competitive FPS I want a little more than 60 since I value high refresh rate over visuals. I just got RDR2 on Steam and I am only able to average about 35 fps on max settings. I think that's the type of game I would want to experience with a lot of eye candy. To increase FPS which GPU should I go for? I have really only been looking at the RTX Super cards. I have been thinking between a 2070 S and 2080 S
  15. I want a bigger screen and battery isn’t getting me all day anymore
  16. I am looking to upgrade from my iPhone 7. I was looking at the 11 but the LCD screen has been putting me off. The XS has an OLED and 2x optical zoom which is appealing. I think the darks would look a lot better on iOS 13’s dark mode and make the notch less noticeable. The only thing is I would probably only be willing to buy it used due to price. Which should I get? I cannot decide
  17. We don’t have the same exact motherboard but this might help. I have the ASRock x470 Master SLI/ac and was having trouble getting my memory to get past 2166mhz. After doing this I still wasn’t able to get it to 3600mhz but I got it to 3200hz.
  18. How much better is it? Would that only matter if I was overclocking or had a 3900x?
  19. Should I purchase the x470 Taichi ($160) or x570 Asus Prime ($165) for my R7 3700x?
  20. But at that point should I just get an X570? That’s about where they start
  21. Any idea where it would be? Also, any better X470 alternatives that are high good for $140?
