  1. Hi, as some of the long time viewers of LTT might now there was a video about mining crypto with harddrives; Burstcoin. Now that crypto is back this topic is getting interesting again, mostly because burstcoin does not use graphics cards, cpu or asics but just plain old hard drives. I would like to start mining burstcoin because it seems te be quite profitable now and is gaining a lot of popularity, the only thing is the mining hardware. Hardrives aren't that difficult to get and there are enough websites that crawl amazon products and calculate the cheapest drive ($ per TB). The thing that I'am struggling with now is finding the correct motherboard for this application and the correct balance between buying a more expensive board with more sata ports or buying higher capacity drives. What would you recommend for a 100 TB configuration?
  2. Good question, I'am not sure about HDR you could try setting it via the Nvidia control panel; that is how I got 4k 120zh working.
  3. https://www.amazon.com/Display-Emulator-Compatible-Windows-fit-Headless/dp/B07C4TWZRM I would reccomend buying one of these things and plugging it in like a second monitor. It tricks your gpu into outputting a 4k image that can be streamed to your tv. It is basically a virtual monitor.
  4. Yes I see, looks cool but yeah probably fake.
  5. What probably happends is that windows update thinks it has a better driver than is currently installed and tries to update it. This can happen when you have a non oem driver installed. I would suggest installing the offcial driver from acer, those will not automatically get update by windows update thus not create the problem again.
  6. Your findings are correct, you IPS modem only makes the connection to the outside network (wan) and your own router is going to have to do the rest (the internal network). It sounds like you are missing an dhcp server, maybe you can find this setting on the router. What isp do you have and what router would you like to use?
  7. https://youtu.be/sBeI30ccb6g Just came across this, how cool is that. Curious to see what hardware it actually is and how they managed 1024 logical cores. Also what kind of software did they use for this.
  8. 3 years ago this video: https://youtu.be/nJ4ea5NNqcg went up on the LTT channel, it was about a (then) small crypto currency Burst which is mineable with acces harddrive space. Instead of continius hashing like SHA it uses your harddrive (or ssd) to read pre done hashes. This makes it really efficient and transaction costs really low. On april 24th there is a update of the blockchain planned, this will improve the network a lot and make it ready for real use and a lot of troughput. With this announcement the populairity started rising again and a lot of people started mining again. I would really reccomend doing this with acces harddrive space since it is a lot of fun learing about this stuf. I had around 6tb of free space on my nas and I'am using it to mine as we speak. Hope to se an LTT video about it again. (I'am not a financial adviser or anything, so I don't know about recommending to buy it. Just sharing the cool idea behind the cypto)
  9. something like this, it can get quite difficult and you need to be quite fast.
  10. Very annoying problem cant believe they didn't fix it yet. When I was upgrading and repairing macs I had this problem so often. They only way to resolve it is to use an other mac to format the disk in disk utility. Disk utility in the recovery just doesn't seem to work well. If that doesn't work try formatting it first in an other file system (exfat or fat 32), sometimes after that worked it will allow you to format it for mac os.
  11. I used to have a similar problem with my old computer, it turned out to be the 24 pin connector. There are four pins that are optional and can be removed from the connector, these weren't plugged in completely and caused instability. I would recommend reseating everything. I used to run my computer on a not grounded outlet, and didnt experience any problems so I dont think that your problem.
  12. Sounds like a gpu problem. I have experienced similar issues when using a amd gpu on chinese boards like these. I'm not sure why it happends but is seems to be a problem with pcie power management. Try using DDU to uninstall you gpu driver. If that doesnt work just reinstall windows 10 .
  13. Hi, I'm looking for weeks now but can't find one traffic control game on steam. I wanted to use this for a challenge with friends but ended up doing it on a android tablet because there was one in the play store: https://goo.gl/ceNLBu . Hope some of you know one or have seen one. Thank you!
  14. It would make a little bit of a diffrence ig, but I reallt dont think doing it would be worht the hassle to install or unintall your cpu when its mounted like that.
  15. Hi, So I'm planning on making a video about Deliberately increasing you ping to obtain a advantage in a online multiplayer game. Ofcourse this doens't work. I did some digging and wanted to show everyone one and for all that this doen't give you any advantage. The problem is, to make the video I wanted to show 4 diffrent pings. 1. my normal ping to the server about 8ms 2. a longer but still quite decent ping of 30 3. a quite bad ping of 100 4. and a really bad ping just to show. But the problem is, I could't find ant way to do this. Is there any way how i could achieve this? If any of you has suggestions to what games i should try let me know too. (I was planning on doing: CS:go, Fornite and Pubg) Thanky you very much.
