If you are going to upgrade to 10g in future: make sure to have have enough PCIe x8 slots and lanes available. also: if you buy a Razen 3600 CPU: buy a x570 mainboard and not a b450.

You should look for a used Supermicro SC846. You will find it on ebay for less then 300$ with redundant power supplies, drive caddys and backplane. The Supermicro case is easy to upgrade, and you will find a lot of replacement parts if smoething breaks.

i made an bios update a week ago, cause the release note say something about the "improved RAM compatibility". maybe i should try to downgrade the bios to the last "known good" bios.

Hi, first of all: this is the first time that I really want to overclock my system and have a funny behavior here. My system has the following hardware: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600x Mainboard: MSI x470 Gaming Pro GPU: MSI RTX 2070 Aero 8GB PSU: Corsair HX1000 Platinum Furthermore CPU and GPU are water cooled. The maximum temperature under full load is about 40°C for the GPU with water cooling. I was going to overclock the GPU. For this I used the MSI Afterburner. If I increase the Core Clock it works so far even up to +240mhz without problems. Also a control with Kombuster shows no artefacts or similar. But as soon as I start TimeSpy in overclocked state, the screens turn black and I don't get any more output from the graphics card. It doesn't matter if the card is overclocked with 10mhz or 240mhz. Only when I disconnect the monitors for about 10 minutes do I get a signal again. This doesn't seem to be a software problem entirely. If I don't get a signal, then I also don't get a signal under my Ubuntu which I have running next to Windows 10 on the system. On BIOS level I get a display signal all the time. have you ever experienced such a behavior?

as i already mentioned. my current wan speed is irrelevant. I want to be future proof to avoid that i have to upgrade in 3 years. my goal is a 10G solution. so the hardware has to be capable of handling 10g throughput. It needs to be powerful enough to route 10G between to interfaces. i know what a router should do and what not. I know what pfsense is capable of and what not. neither a network diagram, nor any information about my usage is relevant to answer my main question: Is a Pentium D1508 or a Atom C3758 really powerful enough to handle at least 2 x 10G of bandwidth. This question is about experience with the corresponding hardware. So: just ignore anything else, just focus on the question if those cpu's are powerful enough for 2 x 10G I know that i will also need a switch, thats nothing we need to discuss. So please stop focusing on what you think i need. i know exactly what i need / want. All i need in this thread are experience reports for 2 x 10G capable embedded mainboards with a TDP below 35w

The pfsense (or something comparable) needs the 10GB as its connection to the switch. I want to be future proof and don't want to bottleneck myself when i start to invest a few thousand bucks on such a system. Therefore i need one 10G port for the WAN connection and one to the switch. There are low power embedded boards available, like the mentioned super micro board with a Pentium D1508 and 2x10GB ports, or something like the ibase MBN802 wit a 8 core Intel atom and 4 x 10GB/s Both are advertised with a 25w TDP. My question was if the CPU of those boards are powerful enough to handle those 10gbit/s interfaces. Currently i have just a cable internet connection, but looking for hardware for a future FTTH connection.

the wan speed is irrelevant. i want to have the possibillity to run 10gbit/s to connect my nas with full speed. So it need to be capable of 10gbit/s.

Hey, i'm currently thinking about building a new home Router. I thought about running pfsense or something comparable on it. The main focus is on a low power consumption. Also it should be able to handle at least 2*10gbit. It doesn't need so much ports or any wireless lan. I plan on buying two ubiquity Access Point for wireless lan. I've found the supermicro X10SDV series. They come with a intel D1508 cpu and with two 10GB nics on board. I'm not quite sure if the CPU is powerful enough to handle those 10G ports. Does anyone have one of those boards and is it really capable to handle the 2 x 10gbit/s best regards, Kai

i used a cheap lvds board. i've found a ebay seller who offered a lvds controller board for this specific display panel. the controller boards provides a hdmi input where the rapi connects to. the case is just painted wood and some stickers from redbubble.

Hey, i would suggest you to make a NAS video which is affordable and realistic for home power user. i bet less then 1% of the viewers here would buy a 40k$ all SSD stornado. You should have a look at a 2000$ price point. this is more than enough for building a 12 bay NAS with 8TB drives to get 80TB of usable storage including a hardwareraid controller, nice sas backplanes and enough performance for home users. if you need some inputs for the hardware to choose: let me know.

depends on the materials you wnat to print. if you are fine with pla and petg you should have a look at the anycubic i3 or the jgaurora A5

i could not work with different monitors on one pc. the small or big differences in color, sharpness, screen size (they will have differend frames) would drive me crazy

Hei guy, a few years ago i had a spare notebook isplay panel laying around attracting dust. So i were thinging what to do with it. my idea was to build a transportable arcade cabinett. I used qcad to draw the parts of a custom enclosure, ordered some parts (arcade joystick, some buttons, controller for the display panel) on Aliexpress and started the build. I've cut the wood for the enclosure on my cnc router. this is the result: On the Softwareside it is just a standard recalboxOS

you should have a look at the Acer XF270HUA. i do have three of them. Its a 27" IPS (some people say that its a VA Panel, haven't opened it to verify), WQHD Display with 4ms response, 144Hz, Freesync and is gsync compatible. you can get some "like new" on amazon for 330€ or brand new for 429 i can definitely recommend those Monitors

I do like those videos more than seeing another "hey we've build a new gaming rig" video every week. How to build a PC does not change. To see someone building his 10000 PC gets boring. I think diverse topics keep them up and running and I would like to see more factory tours, more new non-gaming focused technology, and more scientific related videos. For example: the cyclotron video was really interesting
