  1. That can be easily had in a consumer desktop system? In terms of X86, the only missing name that holds a license is VIA.
  2. Bahh, screw it, Ill spin up a second box before the event kicks off. My Mac Pro was begging to get used for something!
  3. Hype to kick this one off! Heat in my office is gonna kick my ass, but in all fairness to me it was even without the spicy components spun up for folding
  4. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Sapphire-Nvidia-GeForce-GT-320-1GB-GDDR3-HDMI-VGA-DVI-PCI-E-2-0-x16-Video-Card/233614655602?hash=item366484c072:g:L2kAAOSwQ3le4Abc Found one for ya. FYI you arent allowed to post looking for threads outside of the marketplace, which you don't have access to yet.
  5. Another event for me! Have a bit more compute this time, been folding with my GTX670 24/7 since the COVID event started, and still going as strong as it started. Which... isnt very, but hey, better than nothing. My setup has gotten much better since the last event, 280MM CLC on top of my 3900X and a hybrid 2080 super All full tilt for #TeamLTT
  6. Use DDU to clear out the nVidia drivers, make sure all your motherboard drivers are up to date as well. Then reinstall them.
  7. the nickle is plated over copper. All other things even, nickle plating doesn't add or remove much from the thermal conductivity and is purely for appearence. I also prefer the EKWB for appearance, either the aceal or plexi topped blocks. I believe the corsair is cheaper (though I may be wrong), so pick your poison really.
  8. Remember to quote people so they see your reply David. I use a bunch of SW3 120mm's in my build. Very happy with them.
  9. How it's survived this long is beyond me
  10. Have you tried simply not putting in a password? Some quick googling shows that the default might be nothing at all.
  11. Full disclosure, writing this on my 2020 iPad Pro 12.9” + Magic Keyboard. I 100% expected this to be a Linus missing the mark extravaganza as the other iPad reviews of late have been. However, i think he basically got it. I am, by trade, a device repair technician at a business that I own. The device i use to get business is basically irrelevant to how much money I will make. All I need is something that turns on every time with no major weird quirks, and a good battery. So, I bought an MacBook Air. And while it was CERTIANLY an upgrade from my slowly dying Thinpad X201T, it still felt... slow? Not slow as in the sense of things took to long to open, that was fine. It was a very quick device every day. But it kind of felt like I was doing around a race track in a Rolls Royce Phantom, while everybody else were in Katerham’s. Like a massive vessel being lazily thrown around by a rough tide. Trying to fight an MMA champion with a sledge hammer. You get the point. Switching from my MacBook Air to my iPad made everything feel faster. While I have no hard proof that switching made me make more money, every action feels sharper. By hobby I am a writer and video editor, and by education I am a student majoring in law. As a writer, I love the keyboard. These new switches feel fantastic, and the key caps have this soft coating on them that just feel excellent. The adjustment of the display also helps with neck pain, an issue i was having with my MacBook Air. I would either tilt the display back enough to solve that and strain my eyes, or bring the display close enough to see comfortably and strain my neck. As a video editor, truth be told I haven’t actually had anything to edit as of yet. But, I know the power is there. And finally, as a student, the extra snap compared to even a quick laptop just makes me more productive. The ONLY thing that sucks, and this isn’t Apple’s fault, is that I cant have 2 instances of chrome running side by side. I have to use chrome and safari if i want 2 browsers open. I don’t mind it, but it was an adjustment. I have already written quite a bit on this keyboard between school and my hobby, and can 100% say that this is only a quarter-step down from the full fledged magic keyboard on the new MacBooks. But, everything else i gain over those device 100% makes up for it. Overall, the iPad Pro with the Magic Keyboard feels like what the Surface Pro wishes it was. A way to use a device that can adapt to any situation that comes to mind, yet is not conventional in any of them. A sort of Swiss Army knife device. If you can only carry one knife with you for every situation, you pick up a Swiss Army knife. If you can only carry one productivity device with you for every situation, you pick an iPad Pro. While it is a bit unconventional in the way that you interact with it, it is quite possibly the most well rounded “laptop” we have offered to us at the moment. Plenty of power, a fantastic display, lots of battery life, a massive suite of software, and a way to interface with it that allows options that will fit almost everybody. While it isn’t the best at any one thing, I don’t feel like that’s ever been the spirit of the iPad.

  13. chrome extension. And, when somebody replies to your thread, quote them so they see you replied. I only saw because i left the tab open
  14. try h264ify. That's what I use on my T430
  15. Test all the PCI-E and RAM slots, but if all checks out you basically got it for free. I love the older Z series towers.

    This has been rumored for a long, long time. I believe it's happening, though the timeline seems ambitious IMO. As somebody who has adamantly refused to wear glasses despite needing them... I very well might give these a shot if the AR bit is any good.

    No I knew they worked on Catalina, but supposedly it was going to be cut *after* catalina. Though, I cant find it anymore.

    The 2014 air was sold until 2017...

    The 2012 Pro is still supported on Catalina!? Even more miffed they cut my old 2014 air from support.
  22. Either remove the filter from the 011 Air, or use the 011 Dynamic. I would personally do the latter.
  23. Mineral oil PC's have impressively low temps (lower than conventional water cooling), at the expense of high maintenance.
  24. Looks quite good. As for the notch, you DO have to remember everything that is *in* that notch. Lots more than most of the "notchless" phones out there. I dont mind it personally. I really love the direction Apple is going with their Pro mobile devices. The flat edges and round corners... reminds me of everybodies favorite iPhone design series, the 4 through SE. As an avid fan of the 5s especially, its a good direction to be going in. If there isnt much of a price jump, and the spec bump is great enough, might upgrade my 11 Pro Max to the 12 Pro Max. Can say, not a fan of the navy. Wish/hope they keep midnight green around. Though, it not being included on the iPad Pro refresh kind of spelled that one out.
