100% honesty here. RAM overclocking is a pain in the ass as far as stability goes. You can definitely try it, most of the time it's not worthwhile.

It's not worth it. You wouldn't see any difference in real world performance. 16GB is way more beneficial than some extra speed.

Xeon vs i7 and Compatability
Neroxis replied to Eazy Cheezy's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Deadeye has it right. You will need the different chipset. Xeons are nice because they allow hardware passthrough in a virtual machine. It's super nice when you want to pass a gpu to a VM. The Xeons also will support ECC memory, which is awesome for ZFS. -
Oh, you're right. I misread it as CL18. Editing.

You should be going for quantity. The Crucial is a 16GB kit. Edited: I can't read

Wired routers are kind of a fickle thing. it depends on your internet connection. If you have something like gigabit you will need something with power. I have an Edgerouter Lite. In order to connect to my ISP I have to use PPPoE, which has significant hardware needs. This is one of the few routers that can do gigabit fiber PPPoE WAN. If you're talking about routing internally, most anything with a gigabit port ~should~ give you full gigabit internally. It's when you have a gigabit WAN connection you run into issues. If you are looking at wireless, the Unifi APs are absolutely incredible. I use one at my home and get coverage all the way through my back yard and detached garage.

Just seems odd. You could have a legitimate use case. Multiple workstations for different mediums. So long as you're not running more than 2 instances of whatever program there shouldn't be any issue. You are right, though. Adobe is a nightmare when it comes to licensing.

My wife has an Adobe CC account that she uses for work. It's our account, meaning her work does not pay for it. I am curious regarding the license. From what I gather I can have it installed on 2 PCs at a time. She uses the image editing programs but doesn't touch the video editing programs. I produce amateur youtube videos and would love to use Premiere but I don't want to kick her off of her desktop/laptop by registering the program on another machine and using one of the two. If anyone has any experience in the issue I would love to hear.

FTTH gigabit

You are correct. My edgerouter was putting eth0 on 192.168.2.xx and eth2 to 192.168.1.xx. So even running through the router itself there was no phoning home. I like to keep my media server on the same subnet as my hardlined desktops. Less chance that someone on wifi can poke around.
-
Having just set up a Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite and a UniFi AC Lite AP last night, make sure you have the access point and controller on the same switch. I was having problems where the controller was on a different subnet and the AP wasn't getting picked up. Setup is fairly straightforward from there. Best of luck!

Yep, brand new CAT6

I am currently subscribing to Centurylink and receiving gigabit fiber. I have my Netgear R7000 directly wired into the ONT fiber box and signed in through PPPoE. I cannot seem to get anything faster than ~350mbps down and 450 up. From what I gather this is an issue with the particular router. I was curious if anyone had been able to get near a gigabit throughput with a similar setup. I've also seen a few people mentioning 3rd party firmwares but nothing gets past 500mbps. If this is a hardware issue are there any comparable routers that offer a full gigabit connection?

I am about to move into an area that offers Century Link Gigabit fiber. I am moving from Comcast and have a Netgear R7000 wireless AC router. From what I gather this has the ability to run through PPPoE from the fiber to ethernet box. I have been seeing mixed comments regarding not only throughput of the router itself and the ability to turn off vLAN tagging from CL. Any insight as to this viability would be greatly appreciated. I've seen a few guides that show the vLAN tags getting changed so it is doable. However it seems this is where the total throughput on LAN drops. I'm not sure whether this is a firmware or chipset limitation. I would really love to be able to get full gigabit speeds on the LAN and not have to pay for equipment rentals.

i want to build a NAS for business use

http://www.newegg.com/Firewalls-Security-Appliances/SubCategory/ID-529 Things like this. They encrypt your traffic and do a lot better of a job dealing with any soft of external threat. I tend to take quite a few precautions when it comes to data security. I assume someone in your position would as well. If it's for your business you could also potentially write it off on taxes.
