    dronebynsa got a reaction from ArunCanSeeYou in Should I halve the amount of RAM, to upgrade to a 1050ti   
    I'm confused by this question... if you currently have 16GB of DDR4 memory, why do you have to move to 8GB if you upgrade your GPU?
     
    Edit: I thought about it and realized you're probably talking about a build in pcpartpicker when you say you "have it." With that said, I currently run a 1050Ti with 8GB of RAM since I'm waiting for a decent deal to upgrade to 24GB. It runs everything great, including CS:GO. For rendering or video editing, I'd recommend the 16GB for sure.

    dronebynsa reacted to Selder in DAN A4-SFX v2   
    Hi guys,   FB told me beginning this week that it was one year ago that the first version of the DAN A4-SFX case was delivered, a couple of days later that build was finished.   Early Januari version 2 of the DAN A4-SFX case arrived, and slowly the new internal components arrived, and I was able to finish the build Tuesday.   With this thread I wanted to take the liberty to show you guys the finished build.         These are the internal components. Dan A4-SFX v2 Intel Core i7-8700K Boxed Asus ROG Strix Z370-I Gaming Asus GeForce GTX 1080Ti Turbo Asetek 545LC Noctua NF-A9x14 PWM, 92mm Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK32GX4M2D3200C16 Samsung 960 Pro 1TB Corsair SF600 Corsair Premium PSU Cable kit Other peripherals are:  Logitech Brio 4K Ultra HD TP-Link USB 3.0 7-Port Hub HP Omen X 35 Black Audioengine A2+ Black Logitech G Pro (Qwerty) Logitech Pro Gaming Mouse Logitech G240 Cloth Gaming Mouse Pad Logitech G440 Hard Gaming Mouse Pad Logitech G933 Black Oculus Touch Black Oculus Rift
      Installing the motherboard is a piece of cake.  Installing the Asetek 545LC with the Noctua fan too.       But then the challenges started Because of the SFF-size of the DAN A4-SFX, there's not a whole lot of room to route the ATX cables decently.  I first tried routing them between the motherboard and the center plate of the case, but the retention bracket of the Asetek 545LC didn't leave much room.     I tried installing the motherboard with higher standoffs, but that didn't work.  I like to have the backplate installed too, and the connectors were too skewed.     So then just route the ATX cables from the CPU side to the GPU side.  I needed the space on the CPU side to have enough room for the tubes of the Asetek 545LC.     This is how the cables exited on the GPU side.  I could then only hope that there was enough room between the Noctua fan and the GTX1080Ti...     And there was!      It is as if they were made for each other.  The space between the Noctua and the GTX1080Ti is exactly the height of 1 ATX cable.     After a bit of fiddling I was able to tuck away the ATX cables decently enough.     Meanwhile on the CPU side of the case I was able to mount the Asetek 545LC on the i7 8700K without any issues.     View from the CPU and top-side, you can see the tubes of the Asetek 545LC protruding the case, I wasn't sure I could install the sidepanel on that side.     But my fear was unneeded, there is enough clearance to install the side panel, phew!       Old delidded 7700K on the left, new not-yet-delidded 8700K on the right.   I'll get my professional-grade-photo-taking girlfriend to take some high quality photo's over the weekend.  With the plexi glass my iPhone-camera-photo-taking-skills are urgh...      Also, RGB is life!    As I said, I didn't delid my 8700K yet, I first wanted to see the performance of the Asetek 545LC.       These are the temperatures after a lengthy Quake Champions session at 3840x1440 100Hz ultra quality.  Not too shabby at all, obviously these aren't the best temperatures available, but all well within the thermal limits of all components.   Added a mirror for optimal viewing pleasure...   This v2 build is done, there's not a whole lot on my to do list.  Maybe add a very small case-fan at the bottom to push some cool air over the motherboard since it doesn't have any airflow.  And maybe add an ROG addressable LED strip or something for more LED-porn.   Not surprising I'm very happy with the new little gaming case Thanks for reading!

    I don't know who shot this, but the fact that Linus is just as passive aggressive with them too is hilarious... At "28:00" he goes "don't worry cameraman, I will wait for you I won't jump ahead again -- I'm not a terrible person." or something along those lines lol...

    dronebynsa reacted to porina in FSLabs intentionally installing DRM that can steal your passwords   
    Not a legal expert here but agree with the above. Regardless of their justification, their actions may constitute crimes in the EU including computer misuse (attempting to access systems they do not have authorisation to do so), and data protection (obtaining, keeping, using personally identifying information without legal right to do so). That there may have been a copyright infringement before that does not give any waiver of those rights. I dunno if they could play the EULA game either to maybe get around that. Further, they will likely find it difficult to use illegally gathered evidence to support any action they further take. At best, this will be a PR disaster for them.

    dronebynsa got a reaction from LinusTech in Is Floatplane worth it to you? [Poll]   
    I shared this on your poll, but I think people also forget that Floatplane is another way to support a content creator you enjoy. Same way I think of Discord nitro... I spend a large portion of my days chatting there, so I pay the $5 to support Discord and have a few cool perks. For me, Floatplane is a lot like that. I enjoy both @bitwitand LMG content, so I pay $3 a month and support them. On top of that, we get a private pilot chat in Discord which is nice because sometimes it's calmer and more sensical than our general chat. Oh, and we're blue on discord.

    Hey guys!
     
    So as some of you may know, last Wednesday we created and released an Official LTT Discord to the Floatplane sub-forum. We wanted a bit of breathing room and time to fix bugs with permissions, work out rules, and other things before going ahead with a public launch. It seems like we've worked out most of the kinks so we're going ahead and launch this to you awesome peeps over here in the forum and our socials before later expanding to our YouTube community.
     
    There's already more than 4000 people on the server but this is still a "soft launch" for now. Eventually you'll probably start hearing "and check our Discord server @ discord.gg/ltt" at the end of videos, but for now we're just publishing it here, and on social platforms.
     
    Join the Discord!  
     
    PLEASE NOTE: Your Discord account MUST have a verified phone number to chat at all. We also recommend link your forum account to the discord! There is also some exclusive Floatplane member chat rooms, as well as automated notifications for video releases (the floatplane rank will sync when you link accounts).
     
    Enjoy,

    FYI the colors are wrong. I was confused at first because the colors didn't make sense with the graph but they are just wrong.
    Red = avg
    Dark gray = 1% Low
    Light gray = 0.1% Low

    No, the 2200G doesn't do any GPU work, only CPU work. He did this to compare a cheap ryzen + dGPU with the best new APU because they are similar priced.
