I will get an oscillioscope in the next few days (the Siglent SDS1104X-E) Now I also need/want a function generator: at least 40Mhz 2 Outputs (probably not needed, at least not for my current Projects) PC Software (which works out of the box with win10 or Linux) My preffered Price range would be 100€ to ~200€ maybe 300€

I think I will buy the Siglent SDS1104 and use the rest of the money for a function generator. Thanks for all the advice!

We in Austria have a Shop called e-tec.at there I get discounts everytime I ask if they can still do anything with the price. But they only have very little margins on expensive PC components like CPU MB and alike. You can get a better price cut on cheap things like USB sticks.

Just go to your local retailer.

I want to buy a oscilloscope for little electronic Projects like creating VGA signals or simple arduino Projects. Requirements / Nice to have: >7" Display 200Mhz / 1GSa (?) FFT (pretty much a must have for me) Function Generator (or should I buy an extra Function Generator? what's more budget efficient?) 4 Channels (Nice to have) VGA/HDMI output (would be really nice) Decoding of SPI, I²C,... My preffered budget is in the range of 400 to ~700€ If really needed and or there are features which are worth it I can spend up to 1200€.

a thin wire is an excellent idea, have to use it next time ^^. I ended up heating the cooler with an hair drier, about 60 to 70 degrees and with a lot of force it came apart. I never saw a thermal paste that hard after such a short time span, even 10 year old PCs I disassambled never had this hard thermal paste. Thank for the advice!

I just disassambled a 2200G build to update a X470 MB to support a 3600. I ve used the stock cooler with stock thermal paste. The cooler got with the CPU on it nothing odd yet. But I cannot get the CPU off of my cooler, its like the ve used thermal addhesive instead of paste. the paste which got out on the sides of the CPU is not hard just like dried out thermal paste. Any Ideas how to get the CPU off of the cooler with out the risk of bending the pins?

effectively its an open case PC.

Out of these three cards the MSI would be my choice, because I do not like the EVGA translucent design (but I never saw one myself) If I have to choose an EVGA card my choice would be the XC ultra, because its only 10€ (roughly 11 USD) more expensive. If your case supports it you could go for a vertical mount to counter GPU sag. I cannot comment on how silent they are, I do not have any of those cards nor do I have cards from that brand.

is that a madcatz logo on the right of the CD Drive?

Welcome!

The only problem I can think of is when cooling subambient, your radiator will warm up your water, you would have to make a valve to decupple the radiator from the loop. Also water temperatur probes are probably a must so you do not freeze the water when the CPU is at idle. and of course condense water.

it will bottleneck the CPU, but because its PCIe it will work with any new motherboard, also Z390

Or just lay it on the PSU and tape over it, it's not very fancy but works.

I ve a PC with in HDD just hanging from the top, it still works, as long as it won't hit anything and makes a short you are fine

with the 3700X you can use a cheaper X470 or B450 Board and with some of those you will even get pcie 4.0 also 2133 ram is well in spec with 3 Gen Ryzen Chips. (it would be even better to have faster RAM for added performance, maximum 3600)

If it was my Project, I would mount the HDD to the air flow holes ore drill new holes there. (maybe add some padding to minimise vibration) Or doublesided Tape on the PSU ^^

Aslong as there is not anything obvious all your equipment schould be fine

Aa far as I am aware, all Ipads which suport the apple pen have palm rejection EDIT: there "school" IPad has Palm rejection Source: apple.com search for "reject"

In this case most of the time its not as simple as just downloading, many games on steam are pretty heavy compressed, so you Steam decompresses the download stream while downloading, so installing the game is faster after downloading. LTT Video where the download is capped by the CPU and not the connection: Downloading Games at 10 GIGABIT?

Yep, I learned that the hard way ^^. I would love getting my hand on one of those ^^ Thanks for pointing that out I updated the main post.

Thats a bummer, also the 2400G has only 8 lanes dedicated to the x16 Slot and I do not think there is any CPU for the AM4 sockel with integrated graphics and 16 lanes for the x16 Slot. What do you mean wit an second m.2 card? If I remember correctly, I heard that Zen3 will support PCIe 4.0. with that it would be possible to run their low end 3200G with 8 x PCIe 4.0 lanes multiplexed to 16x PCIe 3.0 Lanes?

I probably have made this part a little unclear. It is an PC thats only used for minior things like as a apache server for testing websites or other similar things, it is running 24/7. It is not used as an user PC. (I will update the main post) But how do I do that? The BIOS I have got at the moment only can do two time 8 lanes as I understand it.

Hi! I recently bought an ASUS x16 to 4x m.2 nvme to use my 4 x 1TB intel 660p as NAS storage. I thought about putting this card into my 24/7 PC (Ryzen 2200G ASRock X370 mini-ITX). EDIT: my "24/7" PC does not have a dedicated graphics card, what it has got is an, 2200G, ASRock X370 mini-ITX, 120GB SSD, some HDDs, 8GB Ram Its used as an testing server for websites, ftp servers, databases and so on... After some testing I got to the point of realization that that is not as easy as I thought... At first only one SSD worked after some searching in the BIOS I found an option to split the x16 PCIe into one x4 Slot or into two x8 slots. That made an second SSD work. After some researching I found out that this techology thats used here is called PCIe bifurcation. Apparently I was very lucky with my motherboard to get two SSDs working, because in this reddit post some guys said that only ASRock impliments bifurcation on some of their AM4 Boards (with that one beeing the only one besides its Brother the B350 Version of his board) Is there a very slime chance of getting a 4x4x4x4 bifurcation on this Board (or even another AM4 Board) working? If that is not possible, which consumer platform/Mobos implements PCIe bifurcation for that what I need?

In general I would say an ryzen 1600 or 2600 or similar, but you would have to by an new motherboard so an 8400 would be the cheaper option. What motherboard do you have? EDIT: Your motherboard for an pentium G4560 Kaby lake is not kompatible with an coffee lake CPU as I suggested. With that I would recommen buying a Ryzen 2600 with an motherboard that fits that CPU
