    Yeah they probably will go with dell again. I just wish they'd have updated this dock at all in the past 5 years. 4gb ram is not even close to enough and a nvme ssd makes such a preference jump for so little cost when all you need is 20gb of space. For note while I'm not doing anything my system has 3 gigs in the virtual memory.

    Work station if you can call them that.
  4. My boss said they're upgrading our machine for next year. Here are the spec they want. "High performance" for offices that need speed. 16gb ram Intel core i5 SSD Recommended 8gb ram Intel core i3 HDD Budget(ie what I'm getting) 4gb ram Dual Core Processor. HDD Don't use amd because we don't test on anything but Intel.
  5. Just an update. My 2060 super(really happy I didn't wait for a 30xx card) is still going strong but I finally made the big purchase. I'me getting a 5800x and 32 gigs (16 gig dimms so I can upgrade to 64 at a later date) of ram to feed it and everything that goes with that. I also splurged on a nvme m.2 ssd (only 500 gigs) for a new boot drive. The one thing I was sad to see go was my case. I've had the same Thermotake case for the past 14 years but I don't need 5 cd drive bays 2 floppy drive bays and 4 internal 3.5" drive bays. Simply put there are too many drive bays and my graphics card sticks into some of them.
  6. So my mother wants to mov her home office into another room. I suggested that while the room is empty and accessible we run Ethernet threw the wall instead of using the current system of having it duck taped to the floor. Now my debate in my head. The new room is basically over the router on the floor below so the old run of cat5e cable is much longer than would be needed to reach the 2nd floor, but I'm thinking if I'm going to run cable should I upgrade while I'm at it. It's not likely she'll ever need the speed of cat6A or cat7 forgetting cat8 but if I'm going to invest the time to go up into the attic and do it right should I have a more modern cable so I don't have to run it again in a few years or can I get away with the 10/100/1000 for now. For note they have 90MB/S down from Comcast so yeah not actually taxing the cat5e ATM.
  7. Sorry I thought I updated this page. I got it working last night.
  8. So It's late and my brain isn't working also I've not run FAH for a while so any help is appreciated. if I run sudo /etc/init.d/FAHClient start I get Starting fahclient ... FAIL if I run sudo /etc/init.d/FAHClient log I get 02:05:06: <!-- User Information --> 02:05:06: <team v='223518'/> 02:05:06: 02:05:06: <!-- Folding Slots --> 02:05:06: <slot id='0' type='CPU'/> 02:05:06:</config> 02:05:06:Switching to user fahclient 02:05:06:Trying to access database... 02:05:06:ERROR:Exception: Database version is 16 but this program only supports 13 I'm on 7.4.4 which from what I can tell is the current client
  9. Kinda up in the air. My machine I'll be chunking it into is a phenom 2 1090 with 16gigs of ram but I'll be upgrading that in the not too distant future. Atm the GPU is the bottle neck. Btw I'm good with the case PSU and storage. Ok The PSU is out of warranty but It's also a replacement for one that died 4 years and 11 months into a 5 year warranty so they gave me the then current model.
  10. Looking at my amazon points balance and upcoming offers my budget can stretch abit further. Is the rtx 2060 super a good option? https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-WINDFORCE-Graphics-Windforce-GV-N206SWF2OC-8GD/dp/B07TT8QQ5M/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?keywords=nvidia+rtx+2060+super&qid=1583494965&refinements=p_89%3AGigabyte&rnid=2528832011&sprefix=nvidea+rtx+206&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyUUhVS0hXQ0VLMVBIJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNjIzMjM0M0tQVFY4NjNXVDRDTSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMjgxNDM1SkxRU1YyM0pCUjROJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfcGhvbmVfc2VhcmNoX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=
  11. My goal is to have playable (30-40 fps) frame rates on low settings in most of a decade. My budget is flexible. I want to keep it around $300USD at most. I don't need it too powerful.
  12. I'm running a GIGABYTE GV-R667D3-1GI Radeon HD 6670 1GB DDR3 and looking at an upgrade. I know a potato is an upgrade. Basically I want a graphics card that will be like my 6670 HD is today in 2029. Any advice?
  13. Who'd like to see Linus read old cringe computer stuff. Things like Is my son a hacker from 2001?
