    The Electroclassic reacted to jaslion in Nvidia Tesla m2090... what is it for?   
    Basically this one is old and a like gtx 1050 would obliterate it in plex for less power.
     
    So can it? Technically with lots of trouble. Really skip it and use it for decorstion or something.

    Machine learning in a server.
     
    Thats about it.
     
    It does NOT have self cooling capabilities it needs high pressure forced air through it.
     
    As a desktop card its extremely niche and basically useless

    It's a GPU meant for servers, so basically compute GPU tasks that don't involve a display output. Performance wise, it should be a bit slower than a gtx 580, but with 6gb of vram instead of 1.5gb, along with lower clocks.
     
    You can use it as a paperweight.

    It's just as you said. A GPU for servers and processing compute tasks that run well on GPUs instead of actually outputting to a screen. It's too old to make any real use of it unless you only have access to 2011 hardware in general. There's more power in a random cheap laptop nowadays.

    It looks like it would work just fine. I would recommend a case with a mesh front for airflow though.
     
    Check out pcpartpicker.com, you can switch the location to Mexico also.

    I’d get 3200-3600mhz ram, 80+ gold psu, and the ryzen 7 5700x if you can. 
     
    You might be able to squeeze in a better boot drive if you try hard enough.
     
    Could you send a link to the case in here so I can get a better look at it?

    If contributors can't follow simple template instructions and passes their posts as news, the Wan Show and TechLinked will really loose their (questionable) reputation as a trustworthy source for news.

    The Electroclassic reacted to Jurrunio in Planning my first build   
    3200G + graphics card from the get-go is imo a bit of waste of money, as the iGPU wont be used. On the other hand I'm not sure if you can find a 1600AF or 2600 for a similar price
     
    1650's price to performance in most country is awful (as its performance is even worse than an RX 570) so it's rarely recommended. Also is standard height cards expensive? LP cards are half height, which means worse cooling as the cooler shrunk.
     
    8GB DDR4 means possible upgrade in the future, would prefer just getting 16GB from the beginning but this isnt crucial
     
    That HDD will be a big slow storage
     
    If you're on the cheap, dont get PCIe SSDs. They feel the same during use as SATA SSDs. More capacity tends to be better value but there's only so far your budget would allow
     
    Awful PSU
    Get something better
     
    Finally sb who picked a case that doesnt choke itself from the beginning

    The Electroclassic reacted to Sorenson in Apple quietly ditches AMD   
    I wonder if using their own silicon for the CPU and GPU will actually make more game developers pay attention to the mac. The way I look at it is, any game that ran on the upcoming chips in the macs would be easily portable to the iPhone, iPad, and apple TV (all of which support game controllers). This might make porting games to mac actually worth it to developers.

    We do care about performance, we just aren't willing to sacrifice an interface and ecosystem we prefer just to say we score higher in a benchmark.  To abuse car analogies: if you go shopping for a car based purely on 0-60 times, you're A) missing out on so much more and B) probably not very fun.

    I used to think the same until I got an iPhone, all you have to do is press the power button twice & your card is ready. (Provided FaceID passes, but I haven't had it fail yet). Carrying zero cards is great because i'd definitely end up losing them if I did.

    Apple Pay is coming to Mexico after nearly 6 years of been announced. And, while Android Pay and Samsung pay have been established for quite some time, it looks like the Big Apple is ready to take the spotlight (and, who knows, maybe the lead) for contactless payments. While multiple banks already offer cards with NFC chips on them, as well as NFC-enabled card readers, it hasn't been the mainstream yet, but with the Cupertino-based company finally adding support for The Land of the Coronas, this might change soon.
     
    9to5Mac, iDownloadblog and many other news outlets have covered the news. Twitter user Juan De Santiago added a card from Banregio, Monterrey-based bank, successfully.
     
     
    Obviously, the verification process failed as support for Apple Pay hasn't been announced officially yet. Looks like it's the only partnered bank so far at the time of the writing, I've personally tried it with cards issued by Bancomer, Scotiabank Mexico, Santander and Banorte and none of them worked.
     
     
    Dominican YouTuber (and I dare to add, Latino MKBHD) Victor Diaz, MARCIANOPHONE, also confirmed the news with another customer of Banregio via his own fanbase.

    Which means that Apple Pay might launch soon in Mexico to compete with already stablished services like Android Pay, Samsung Pay, Aregntina-based MercadoPago and more, being already accepted in multiple locations around Mexico.

    That said, I've legit have only ever seen 1 person pay with their phone in a store here in Canada...
    It's just so much easier to pay with a contactless card... no need to open any app or select anything, you just take it out of your pocket (the same you would a phone) and press it. Done. No extra steps required.
    Sure it might be convenient if you carry like 10 cards on you... But I sure don't.

    We use the 8K cameras to take "pictures" all the time.
     
    Since it's on set anyway, we use it to shoot the video thumbnail more often than not. We just roll a short snippet of footage and then the editor extracts the best still moment.
