It's not a whole lot of earnings at this point, but there's definitely money coming in. For starters I would need at least 11GB again like I have on the 1080 Ti, so that leaves little options.

Quadro cards don't do it for me with their prices. If I were to get a RTX 3090, what CPU should I pair up with it? Keep in mind I'll need to get a new MB anyway and I'd like to keep using my current DDR4 memory.

The issue is that (sometimes) with bigger renders I will run out of the graphical memory on the GPU. Then it falls back to main system memory which slows down the render. So if I get a GPU that has less graphical memory then I will run into the issue more.

Hi, Currently I have self-built PC that I've had for a couple of years. It has a Intel Core i7 8700k, 64GB of memory (DDR4 4x 16GB at 3000 MHz) and a GTX 1080 Ti. The MB is a ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-H Gaming. Only the CPU is watercooled using a pre-built loop from Cooler Master if I remember correctly. The power supply is a 750W from Corsair I believe. (RM750x?) (Currently not at home as I'm on holiday but I will check if anyone prefers as soon as I get home). Right now I play heavier games like F1 22 and some of the latest Call of Duty, but I also do 3d rendering using OctaneRender. The budget is more or less a "depends on how long I want to spend time saving up for it" if you get what I mean. Any ideas/recommendations?

Thanks, I know that the XPS series isn't for gaming, but wanted to ask here to see if anyone had some advise on if there were some tricks. In that case I'll look into XTU, thanks! Being able to use it a bit for gaming would be nice as it's still a good-spec'd laptop.

Hi, From work I was given a Dell XPS 17 2022 model (yes, given, I can also use it for anything personal, they don't want it back ) The specs: Intel Core i9-12900HK 32GB (2x 16GB 4800 MHz) memory NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 512GB NVMe SSD Now my question is, would it kind of work as a gaming system for when I'm not at home? It runs very hot at the moment when playing a game. For example F1 22 on Low settings it still runs very warm, currently I have it on a laptop stand with a fan on it. I was wondering, are there any tweaks and/or settings to change that may make it perform a bit better and/or run cooler? Thanks!

Okay, many thanks!

From my previous post (fixed a typo too, I accidentally put moving to full HDDs instead of SSDs): Yes. Slowly moving to full SSDs, but currently I have three Samsung 850 EVO SSDs in it, and slowly more as I can afford them. Plus another question: what do you mean with per channel? Could you explain that?

Yes. Slowly moving to full SSDs, but currently I have three Samsung 850 SSDs in it, and slowly more as I can afford them.

Thanks. I'll see if maybe later today some more replies come in and then we'll see.

Hello, I currently have a HP ProLiant DL380G6 with a Smart Array P410i. It has a 3 gigabit SATA limit and I found a Smart Array P420 that has a 6 gigabit SATA limit. Could I put that in one of the PCI slots and route the two backplane cables to it? Would that work or am I thinking too simple here?

Ben wel benieuwd naar de vakantiefoto's. Wil er ook wel naar toe, maarja, hier gaan we al ergens anders heen

Go watch all the seasons, I hope it didn't remove any fun of watching NCIS... That's why I put the spoiler alert there just in case.

I don't know if you watched all seasons yet so.. Spoiler alert (Season 13) It would be Ziva David (Cote de Pablo), she left the series but in Season 13 it was stated that she had died in an explosion in Israel.

12V AC on the Ethernet Shield. This thing: https://www.kenable.co.uk/images/EUT_0.5M_NETWORK_SHIELDED_CABLE_INTERNET.jpg The metal part, that's where the 12V AC is coming from, and that's where I got the heavy tingling from when I accidentally touched it with my finger back when it was not grounded. Now the power cord is in a grounded outlet, problem solved (probably it's sneaking away using that instead of the ethernet cable shield) but I was curious to find out why it was there in the first place.
