    honna1612 got a reaction from fordsrmaster in ATX case with USB-C 3.2 gen2 support aka 20Gbit.   
    Is there a case which has a frontpanel type-C connector with the full 20gbit speed that usb 3.2 gen2 supports?
    I see most cases listed as usb 3.1 which is only 10gbit. 

    Thanks

    ----THIS IS THE ANSWER---
    a) Your sim card is physically faulty and has a low internal resistance, get a new one to test
     
    b) your sd card is physically faulty
     
    c) your samsung account is in an invalid broken state and it tries to sync all the time
     
    Has to be one of those 3 since sim/sd handling is vendor specific and problem persists between samsung devices.

    WOW this post actually became a video: what an honor!
     
    I didnt buy the adapter I quoted in the original post (I just quick searched another one so that global users can find one quickly) I actually bought two of those:
    http://www.ebay.at/itm/Mellanox-ConnectX-2-VPI-Network-Adaptor-PCIe-Server-Card-/331765696568
    (ConnectX2 MHQH19B-XTR)
     
    I used use WINOF drivers and start opensm.exe (In the installer dir) on one machine then no IP configuration is needed because windows 10 will recognize fastest link after 2 min

    I got exactly 10 Gbit at first. It was a cabling problem. Passive copper QSFP+ only gives about 10Gbit. So I searched for QSFP+ fibre and found
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Finisar-FCBN414QB1C10-QSFP-TO-QSFP-InfiniBand-Optic-Network-Cable-WUJ02R4-10m-/112231143635?hash=item1a217f58d3:g:Z5oAAOSwZJBX-iGF

    After that I still got exactly 16 Gbit ramdisk to ramdisk. Still to slow for me.
    Installing WINOF (driver of mellanox)
    http://www.mellanox.com/downloads/WinOF/MLNX_VPI_WinOF-5_35_All_win2016_x64.exe
    gives a special tab in device manager properties which says: Speed up for single port.
    Thats was it.

    Single File Transfers will never go faster than 10Gbit But many copies at once will saturate the link and you get 3.2 Gbyte/s write/read. To fully test the link i used lanbench or multiple file copies at once.
    http://www.zachsaw.com/?pg=lanbench_tcp_network_benchmark
    with this i could achieve the maximum data rate PCIe 2.0 x8 can handle which is 24 real Gbits.

    Conclusion: Still below 100 Dollars. 3.2 Gbyte/s read/write. Cables did cost more than the adapters.
    You dont need Windows Server at all. Mellanox works on fresh installed windows 10 without drivers

    Dont ever listen to the people who always say no (the people above this post) the same guys insisted nobody needs 40Gbit at all and yet LTT made a video about it.
    40Gbit looks cheap at first. The expensive part is the cabling. Going above 3 meters means buying fibre optics for 40Gbit. I managed to get a single cable of 10m for 70 dollars which is very cheap. You would have to pay 150 dollars (ebay price not new) per 10m for QSFP 40G rated cables.
     
    The good answer for you is that some Mellanox cards are Infiniband and Ethernet NICs in the same port. So you can just plug in a good old QSFP to RJ45 10G transreciever module and connect to existing network gear. If this particular link needs to be faster just plug in QSFP fibre optics and you get the full 40Gbit.
     
    I would suggest buying ConnectX-3 which is really 40Gbit (not 24 like ConnectX-2) and you pay around the same price as a 10Gbit Ethernet NIC and also get a 10Gbit NIC inside the Infiniband one.
     
    I personally do not install games local anymore I have my NAS which is 12TB and can do 700MB/s. All my games are installed on the NAS and can be accessed from any PC. With ConnectX-2 i get the full 700MB/s on every machine and all storage is centralized. (Which is really a very good solution)

    Just because YOU dont have a use for your home does not mean nobody else has it. Take the newest movies in 4k for example. The filesize is about 30Gbyte even with HEVC. Quantum Break or Gears of Wars need 80 Gbyte+. Now transfering that much data from A to B is way to slow with 1Gbit. 10 Gbit is too expensive with RJ45 connectors and moving an external drive from A to B is impractical.
     
    Seems the cheap way to go here is Thunderbolt or Infiniband. Both support 40Gbit file transfer from A to B for under 100 Dollar.
    Infiniband switches are cheaper than 10GBase-T too.

    Many adapters from USB 3.0 to Gigabit already exist. USB 3.1 supports 10Gbit data transfer so adapters should be possible.
    It should also be cheap as possible without sacrificing anything said above. Thx

    Panavision DXL 8K 60fps ENOUGH SAID. He wasted over 100.000 Dollars for a compandy that charges 1.5k for a battery pack.
    Any rational person would think about the business model of RED before buying stuff from them.
     
    Panavision also comes with standard adapters (unlike the one linus bought for 2k just to get audio working) so audio and everything works with standard hardware and not like that joke RED. (They were the first to do 8k so they just charged whatever they wanted)
    You can see in the image it comes with most accessories AND 60fps!

    Wow guys think outside of the box for a moment. TODAY: if you have a single SSD network transfer is limited by a 10GbE card. Same thing goes for a raid with more than 1,2Gigbytes/s read (about 8 drives raid 0). This is a solution that costs as much as 10GbE but is significantly faster. Please dont spread your 640k mentality.

    As I regulary watch LinusTechtips on youtube I stumbled across a video called: 10x Your Network Speed.. On a Budget!
     
    I thought that is still too slow. So I googled about alternate technology and found that infiniband can also do normal IP networking.
    So I bought two Infiniband adapters with 40Gbit network speed each and a 7 Meter QSFP cable. All in all less than 100 Dollars.
    something like this:
    http://www.ebay.at/itm/Mellanox-ConnectX-2-VPI-Network-Adaptor-PCIe-Server-Card-/331765696568
     
    I really find the technology fascinating as normal 40GbE Adapters are VERY expensive and I never heard of infiniband before. I bought two cards and they show up with 32Gbit. File sharing speed is at about 5 Gbytes/s (not Gigabit)! I cant find anything wrong with this solution. It works, is cheap and behaves like any other NIC (because of IP over Infiniband)
    So normal SMB and other network stuff works as usual.
     
    So my question is if any of you has also tried this and if someone on this channel could take a look it this to point out the possible drawbacks. (Maybe Youtube? :D)
