Thanks to scrapyard wars and the new buyers guide I don’t know what to buy. Help? so I can get a used Predator XB241H for $175 or a new Spectre C248b 144RN from the new buyers guide for $150 they seem basically the same specs but I’m assuming the Acer Predator is a significantly better monitor? both 1080p both 144hz both have DP what’s the best deal? Better deals out there? $150ish is my budget.

The only full privacy on the internet is through Tor. It’s funny that tor is seen as the dark web, but it’s probably going to be a really important privacy tool some day.

I don’t think it does. I’m an exercise physiologist and low FPS would just simply show you an image after it already happened. You can see an example of this in the video Linus did using the slow Motion cameras not to long ago. so your reflexes wouldn’t improve because you just responding to getting information slower. From a physiological standpoint you would want to train at the FPS that you would compete at. what would help is if you could speed up the game in practice. If you could increase the game speed 10% and practice at that you would have positive adaptations and improve. Actually that’s a great idea! Any pro esports gamers here? I have some ideas.

Thanks for the link, I like the idea that maybe someone besides TSMC and Samsung might make more chips for more things. does Intel do any silicon fan for other companies?

I put the 1060 in and made sure GPU acceleration settings were correct and problem resolved.

Yeah, I have that board and I run random GPUs constantly in all slots. That being said some of the auto miner software doesn’t play well with it so make sure your during claymore or something vs nicehash or Cuda miner.

There’s plenty of you tube videos on this topic, even ted talks. Turns out those site live and dye very quickly based on reviews. Being in a first world country I would question the origin of these items because they are being sold over tor. Probably “fell off the back of a truck” type items.

You can get newest S9e from bitmain directly for under $200 now. but these are all extremely noisy. 40DB minimum. if you have truly free power I’ll send you 5 and we’ll split the BTC? That’s 7.5kw/hour I’m going to assume someone will notice the power draw. these are also all 220-240v power requirement

Today Bitcoin is mined by Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC). If your interested in Bitcoin and want to support the network running a node and mining are great ways to do so. That being said unless you have electricity that is less the $0.05/KW USD you won’t make a profit. The process of mining Bitcoin is simple in concept, you run software that batches transactions for a fee and then hash it with a nonce through SHA256. If your computers guess the right nonce, your block of transactions is submitted to the chain and you are rewarded 12.5BTC. you can mine alternative crypto currency with your GPU’s but profit depends if your power costs. if you want to dig deeper, let me know. I’m in the middle of developing a larger scale Bitcoin mining operation in Colorado currently.

Your best option would be to mine Monero on its new randomX script. If your not paying for the power it might work. CPU’s are not efficient enough to mine crypto currently because of either low value or high difficulty due to ASIC hardware. yes... I mine bitcoin

Maybe we’ll finally get that Intel GPU! https://wccftech.com/intel-ceo-beyond-cpu-7nm-more/

When I click or try to drag the little blue line in the timeline area it doesn't move until i tell it to play. The little blue marker in the playback window works great just not the one in the timeline window where you put all the video and audio tracks. Not sure if it's my system because this wasn't an issue with CS6 version but my specs are i7-7700K 4.2ghz, 16gb ram, SSD, Radeon 580, z-270 mb. I'm not an editor just a hobbyist, but i've read I need an Nvidia GPU? Actually none of that window responds well, clicking on the cut tool or the select tool or changing the zoom etc. I finally gave up on my premiere pro CS6 and am paying full price for all the adobe cloud creative (CC) these issues are with the CC version not CS6 Other notes: CPU usage is 30%, GPU is always 5% when scrubbing the CPU graphics go up to 15% not sure why my card isn't being used. and ... why does premiere use my internet so much while its on? 400kbps constant? is there an optimal config for this that will help? I have a GTX 1060 somewhere would that help?

I appreciate it! You talked me into a bigger SSD. Yes, my mb supports Raid0. Yes everything is always backed up.

I’m running out of space on my SSD boot drive, I don’t know why I want all these programs on it but I do. So, bought a second matching SSD. What is the best way to install the old SSD and the New SSD and retain all of my crap that’s on the old SSD like windows, etc?

Known for their crypto ASICs but built a GPU... I know it’s not meant for gaming but it would be fun to watch Linus try to make it game. https://www.innosilicon.com/html/ip-solution/14.html
