    MadDuke got a reaction from Ender Wiggin in Any M.2 to 10GbE/10GE/10GigE out there?   
    Hi everyone.
     
    Has anyone seen something similar to this, but with 10 gigabit ethernet?

    I've switched to mITX  (Phanteks Shift) and would like to keep as low profile as possible. I truly only need a fast SSD, single GPU and a CPU in my setup. For everything else there is USB3.1 Gen2 and Gen1, but a 10GBe ethernet would be a must so I can access my NAS PC fast so I don't break the bank on local storage (plus the point is not to have it locally)
     
    Kind regards,
    MadDuke

    Actually. Being a Behemoth like Google (or Microsoft) and failing and canceling service while also buying full games would set an important precedent and out of that we would get a lot of really good pro consumer laws.

    I'm sick of these "reviews".    
    Expectations from these service are unrealistic.  And yet, people act like they always bring their xboxes and playstations around from one room to another all the time

    Am I the only one that expected this to only really work reliably with a hi-end router and/or an ethernet connection? 
     
    And, according to most of these reviews. I would expect something like a Read Dead Redemption 2 for PC get something like 2/10 considering how it launched

    The stream device itself will work better on ethernet of course. That is a matter of bandwidth. 
     
    The controller can work on wifi. 
    But connecting it to a default ISP crap of a router. That will not be a great experience probably if streaming also from the same crap router. 
     
    I mean. We are entering WiFi 6 territory and here from my apartment I'm the only one broadcasting a 5GHz signal. Everyone else is still on 2.4 GHz. 
    I even use the 80 wide band I think because there is literally nothing to screw with my signal hahaha.

    I agree. But I hate double standards. I have an Asus Rog Phone 2. So, all I would need is a simple USB-C dongle with ethernet and HDMI and play on a big screen wherever I go with a normal connection. 
    And I can then only pay for one month when I want to play and skip on the other months. (even though the default free plan will also be available for casual gaming).  
     
    And if someone says you shouldn't need a dongle. Then all the macbooks of this world and most ultra portable PCs should also get a 2/10 mark on their reviews
     
    That's what I'm saying about double standards

    Yeah.  Here in Croatia it's 20 USD for 150 down 15 up cable inside building, optics from there or 100/100 or 250/250 for 20-30 per month if you have FTTH. 
    Worse case scenario for most people is around 30-60 down if they have to use DSL. 
    Flat Rate.   
     
    And my point about this service is that you don't have to buy an Xbox, PS4, Switch or PC.

    Except that even one of my 220 USD 32 inch 75Hz MVA 1440P monitors has freesync that works great. It's not freesync 2, not gsync but sure beats the hell out of not having VRR at all. 
     
    I don't need a gsync compatible sticker that would increase the price of the monitor when more than 90 percent or freesync monitors work just fine. (from reputable brands). And you have reviews to find out if they don't.

    I never said freesync monitors don't work.  In fact I didn't even comment on their quality.    AMD placed virtually no regulation on monitor makers to use the free sync logo, so it was slapped on anything that could do it.  The post I was responding to claimed many freesync were relabeled gsync compatible without mention of AMD at all, I was merely pointing out that the regulation on Gsync was so stringent that not many freesync monitors qualified for the sticker.

    I already have an 1700 there clocked at 3.9 on a 120mm AiO. 
    I just don't know if I'll be putting an x42 inside or simply go with the custom looop completely. Though I'm lazy with the 3d printer and don't have enough time to use it for a custom printer pieces for the custom loop (to mount stuff like reservoir and pump) so I'll go 140 probably.

    This is it. This is what I've been waiting for and going soon from a Ryzen 1700 to 3950X without doing anything and just slotting the CPU inside my PC is a tremendous kudos to the AM4 platform.
    I would say, since I've been using an up-to-date PC from 1995 this has truly been the best platform I have yet encountered as far as upgrade paths go.  
    Top of the line CPU and 2 years (and a half) more than double the performance (2x the core count + meaningful IPC improvements + clock improvements + new process node). 
    And all of that with no extreme OC necessary keeping the power/heat consumption in a normal range.

    Hehehe. But one thing I'm also quite looking forward to if it becomes true. It's next year 8 Cores per chiplet.  If AMD makes the 7nm+ production before Intel goes to a new node and makes it only a bit better IPC wise than current Zen3. There goes the gaming crown. (to those who care)
