  1. I have a general question about your videos and I'm not sure where to ask it. You say you're shooting in 8K! YouTube is only showing the 4K. I've got two questions: - what are you using to shoot 8K video on? There aren't a lot of choices today. - Can you upload a short clip of 8K content somewhere? I'd love to see a clip and try it out on the one 8K display I have access to.
  2. I'm not sure I "got" this. If the speeds didn't top 10 GBit/sec, did it perform better than a 10GB Ethernet? I guess it will be somewhat better because nobody ever gets more than 10 GB on a 10 GB Ethernet, and the storage is on its own dedicated network, but how much better is it?
  3. What's missing from the RGB universe is RGB diskdrives. In fact, I'd love a spinny drive (not SSD) with glass case and RGB inside so you can see the heads seeking. Maybe the head/arm can be coated with UV paint and blacklit. @LinusTech -- Tell your friends at Seagate to get on it!
  4. How are you going to back this up? Do you have any tape storage on site? Every NAS we have here at chatterbeak.com we have x2 so we can have two copies on-site, and an offsite cloud backup.
  5. First CPU that I owned was a 6502 (in a Commodore PET, back in 1978) First "GPU" (graphics card with some acceleration) was probably some Tseng Labs, maybe the ET-4000. I'm not sure. But the first computer I programmed on was a DEC PDP-11/70 at my high school back in 1977 or so.
  6. > Also, another side question, would it be able to handle 4k editing? Premiere Pro can do 4K editing on nearly any modern Intel i7 machine. I've done it on 3-year-old iMacs (without 4K monitors, but with 4K video) and on my 2 year old. 3000x2000 Surface Book. I have a 4K dual-monitor display at work and edit 4K with Premiere Pro all day on it. BTW: Photoshop, After Effects, and Premiere Pro can all make good use of your video cards for rendering, transcoding, etc.
  7. I was surprised how good the built-in sound on my motherboard was. I used to run the optical SPDIF to a optical-to-5.1 converter, thinking I'd get noise from the computers if I didn't. But on my latest computer (built around a Supermicro X10DAI) I put the speakers into the jacks on the Mobo and it sounds find. I'd give the built-in audio a try. If it sounds good to you, you're done.
  8. For non-gaming though it works well. You don't even SLI them to take advantage of dual NVIDIA GPUs in programs like Blender, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere, etc. Things just go faster--often twice as fast.
  9. I bought a Corsair keyboard with red LED backlight. But after seeing all those Linus videos I realized I made a Big Mistake and should have purchased the RGB one.
