  1. This should have been something that microsoft could have been doing a better job of scanning for. If they were doing a better job at auditing the skills that could be used then this attack would have been impossible. Outside of that they would have just had access similar to any other phishing compromise.
  2. Assuming you have enough graphic horsepower you could setup VDI's for them to remote in to and play from. The issue will be making sure they have access to the GPU related resources they will need (GPU passthrough). You can solve a lot of that issue by going with Quadro cards, but they are going to be expensive. Then everything would be local and the only work you would need to do is setup the VDI environment and forward ports for them to connect. Now if the people above have a decent machine already to play on then it would be a lot more effective to just setup a vpn connection they can connect to and access the server as if it was a LAN connection.
  3. Watching the video it only happens with fast movement. Your gpu utilization is at 50% and your fps seems to be locked at 60hz. Are you using vsync? Are you using the fps target via the Radeon software? My guess would be it is something related to that.
  4. The arctic F (airflow) and P (pressure optimized) are some of the best budget fans i can suggest. They perform in par with much higher price options and you can find them in 5 packs for about 25bucks.
  5. It shouls be fine. We are talking relatively simple setups. When you go to having plex on a server machine, with 1 small NAS, and a storage server... which doesn't even count another usb 3.0 quad bay storage i have plugged in (yes i have too many digital shows, movies, audiobooks, etc) Anyways I do much as you have and mapped raids to drive letters on the plex server then I can keep all the content separated manually ao i am not reliant on plex to build all the libraries. Then I have them mapped again on my machine so I can easily move thr content to a drive from my machine and instantly have it reflect in plex
  6. Not sure how that card will work, but I know that if you use the integrated gpu on your cpu it should be able to do 2 1080p transcodes and a 4k direct without issue.... if you have enough network and IO headroom on your NAS. Might consider running them dual homed.
  7. You should post your hwinfo of the core voltage (not pid). I am going to second that this is more than likely a voltage issue.
  8. Do you know how you got it? In my experience this particular pup (potentially unwanted program) is tossed in bundled software... so depending on the software there might be other items of concern.
  9. Ehh.. if you can watch a short YouTube video you can make your own Android box for like 50 bucks with a raspberrypi
  10. It is basically just rebranded mayhems stuff if I remember correctly. It works fine. I have some UV reactive green in mine for about 4-5 months now without issue.
  11. Don't have this case, but looking at pics if you have a 3 slot GPU cooler it will be really tight... if it is only a 2 slot then you should be ok (on air). If you are water cooled then the spacing doesn't matter. I do have a phantecs 719 though and the amount of and there is probably 2.5 inchs of room between my 2080ti and waterclock.
  12. If your ISP one is dns locked you can't do much outside of configuring each device. In any case the Cloudfront ones are good. Opendns lets you do a lot with choosing and blocking based off net category. It just comes down to what you want to use and how granular you want with the blocking.
  13. Without knowing pretty much everything about your system noone will really be able to help. It is almost impossible for us to guess with any type of certainty for what it might be.
  14. I mentioned it too. Both it and precision are good options. So just go with the one you prefer. I mean spending the money on an ftw card and not using the free and easy auto OC tools is pretty much wasting some free performance.
  15. It could be a case of rounding too. Since it might start to reduce the boost by one step at 50.5c or something silly like that. Either way we are talking 15mhz which isn't even 1%. So you are losing 1 fps. Honestly being a ftw3 I would grab afterburner or precision (probably precision with an evga card) and have it run the auto-overclock and then save the profile. You should be able to get that card to 2050mhz at a min and another 500+ on the memory. So you would gain much more than you are losing for this and the temps of the card probably would stay largely unchanged on water (in my experience).
  16. Btw since your pump is ddc I would try setting it to 100% in bios and see if that helps. It might be running a generic fan curve that runs it much lower than it should be... plus trying it at 100% will show you pretty quick if there are improvements im temp from flow rate.
  17. So you are running two gpus. When in SLI they have to share the same OC and such. So the way power boost works is part of it is based on temp. So the temp of that last gpu will be hotter due to being down stream. It shouldn't be much hotter, but that is why. As for thr usage that could be many different things, but more than likely is just how SLI is utilizing the card. It could also just be the block isn't making great contact too so heat isn't transferring as effectively.
  18. honestly your temps are fine. Your clocks are fine. So I don't think you need to really do anything.
  19. what is the temp in your room/house? If it is say 30c and your setup does a deltaT of say 7c... then that means no matter what you do 37c would be the lowest you could do. Now for every degree you shave off on ambient that should directly effect the rest of your setup. Also blowing an ac at one rad will help some, but the other 2 radiators would add heat back to the water. The only way to do it would be to have it be on an intake rad and then you would have 2 rads getting cold air and one that didn't unless you can 1 rad as intake and the others as exhaust And lastly let me just say you are giving yourself a headache for a few mhz you won't even notice in games. I mean for trying to flex a benchmark fine, but even if we were talking 100mhz more... that is still 1-3fps difference which at the fps those cards push will be completely unnoticeable.
  20. Hard to tell from angles, but need to confirm. You do have a fan on each 120mm segment on these radiators right? So that would be atleast 3 fans per radiator. I would also have the front and bottom fans as intake with the top and rear as exhaust.
  21. I would say that is pretty firmly average across the board. Have seen air hit as high as mid 2100s and seen water break 2200 with most being in thay 2070-2100 range.
  22. Is it the predator? If so that does have a true DDC which should be fine. Just out of curiosity can we get a pic of your setup? Might help when looking for a possible issue, but it could just be your ambient temp is high. Also I know you want that 2077 boost, but unless we are talking benchmark flexing the 22mhz will not make a noticeable difference. We are talking at 1% here so if you average say 140fps at 2077 you will be sitting at 138-139 at 2055. If even that! Sometimes the 22mhz makes no fps difference outside of synthetic benchmarks.
  23. So that pump is going to be better than a standard aio pump, but will be weaker than a true ddc or D5. Second it all comes down to deltaT. Which in this case we will say is the difference between your ambient temp and you water temp. This is one of the better ways to see how efficient your setup is. If your cpu (even more so being intel) has cooler temps than your gpus then part of me suspects there might be some flow issues. So I think you have the phoenix stuff. Which doesn't have a great pump. It also is full of quick disconnects that are hard on flow rate. So part of me thinks this explains the problem. Is your cpu thr first component in your loop? If flow is low then the variance from start to finish can be much higher since the water spends more time in the components and more time in the rads. So you average is about the same, but your in/out temps can be 3-5c different. So as you have higher flow that drops drastically to less than 1c of variance.
  24. as with all major companies this entirely falls on your skill level and the worth of said skills. Someone doing major game engine work is going to have a skill worth more than someone writing a few scripts to do xyz. Comes down to the abundance of labor as well. Everyone is learning how to make simple scripts in college now, but very few have the ability to understand and improve on something more complex like a game engine.
  25. So the take away. Blizzard is bad about annual raises (Most companies are) - Solution you have to either get a promotion or move to another company. Developers are paid much more than testers and CS. - this is also not uncommon. So the talent needed to be a good developer is much more rare to come by than someone to test or handle customers. Then you have the over abundance of people in those roles. This means that you have an abundance and don't need to offer high pay to entice them. This issue is only compounded by the fact this is in Cali where cost of living is stupid high. Good for them for speaking up and sharing this information. It may or may not actually do anything of worth, but it will allow everyone as a whole to make some important decisions. Working for these companies look great on a resume... so take as a minor form of compensation and use it to go somewhere else. Go to a competitor, start up, etc. So just remember the only way to get a good pay increase is to A) Get promoted. B) Take a new job. Annual raises are generally more of a cost of living increase... so sub 5% for a lot of places. Promotions and job moves normally come with a 15% or higher increase.
