The second monitor is wide, really wide. 7680 pixels long. 3x Ultrawide. ha!
When I made this thread, I was thinking about monitor configuration within linux and how it's like ten times easier in linux. Configure your monitor setup, save config file, and move on with your life. Actually, I could use some advice on using Intel and Nvidia drivers together in Linux. I couldn't get it to work with multiple monitors. ^The same exact setup but in Linux. You're using Intel HD Graphics and Nvidia drivers together to display multiple monitors within Linux? How many monitors are you using? Which Window Manager are you using? What drivers are you using for Nvidia and Intel? Thank you!
Default Ubuntu (Pop Os, but shouldn't matter) with Gnome.
Everything worked outta the box, I didn't have to do anything.
I plugged one monitor into the motherboard, and the other two into my gpu.
Not even a fancy computer, a Hp ProDesk with a GT 710.
Did not have to do any configuring what so ever outside of the placement that I wanted. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
1 Intel - Right
2 NVIDIA - Left/Middle

Not sure if this is relevant or will help, but,
One thing I have noticed, (On Linux, but probably true on Windows)
I could not place a Monitor of another GPU in between two other monitors of another GPU.
Example of Invalid Scenario for my triple monitor system, Nvidia, Intel, Nvidia
(Also Linux monitor placement is soo much easier, thier must be a config for windows somewhere?)
The NVIDIA Panel in Linux supports both Nvidia Monitors and Intel Monitors, I was able to fine tune via that. Is that not an option in the Windows Version?

XMP 3333 @ 1.4 Volts is where I ended up.
1.4 Should be safe right?

can you list the exact model of ram you have?
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3200MHz C16
Based on reviews, tomorrow I am going to see try and see which batch of modules are actually on the ram.
Looks like theirs at least 3 different batch's.

i think you can
It depends on the motherboard.
However anecdotally, my pre-built computer does support using the onboard GPU at the same time as my dedicated GPU.
If you have the GPU with you, you can try it.

Your laptop's NIC might be limited to 100mbps (AKA 10MBps), first check if both Ethernet controllers on both devices are even capable of gigabit. A lot of laptops do not have gigabit NIC's.

Block the Update Server IP's/Hostnames in the Firewall/Hosts File? Can't Update if it thinks their no internet connection.
Edit: What are you using the machine for that it needs to be running windows?

HDMI 2.0 @ 4k60 ~18gbps 10 Meters 4k, 30 Meters 1080p
Ethernet Cat5e ~1gbps 100 Meters
Ethernet Cat 7 ~10gbps 55 Meters
You will run into Frame Rate & Resolution Issues.
Along with Latency with the conversion, compression and decompression, Etc.
Possible, Yes, Practical, Meh

Still related to power fluctuation. Same scenarios. Air conditioner kicks up, screen goes black.
If, a UPS doesn't solve it, try a differnet outlet, if that doesn't work......
That's all i got.

okay.. it does not work... the unit itself is working, but my monitor is still going black from time to time. What now?
Is it still related to the power fluctuations?, or just randomly?

Okay. I see.
Another thing is lets say that my desktop's power supply is 450Watt, but I am pretty sure that during normal usage it is about 300+ watt, so I need to go with 450 Watt anyway just to be safe?
Not Necessarily, but after accounting, the monitor's and laptop, yea, Plus a little but of buffer is always good,

Could you recommend a brand for me? I am not sure which is good...
Also did you experience this kind of issue before and a UPS solved your problem?
I have not, my power is fairly stable.
CyberPower and APC are two good brands I have used.
Worst case, you return it if problem isn't solved, but a UPS is always good to have anyway.

Can I connect my laptop's power supply to it too??? That monitor fried my laptop's mobo a few months ago...
then how do I calculate the wattage I need?
Monitor watt+desktop watt + wifi router watt + laptop watt?
Yes? for the 1st one, Yes for the second.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002RCNX8K/ref=twister_B00EU2ZXCO?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
For example this lineup goes from 420W to 820Watts, Just pick what ya need. I would go Max Desktop Wattage too, not idle.
I think under MAX load it's 10-15 Minutes. Idle probbly closer to an hour ithink. -
Just now, mrchow19910319 said:
huh? can I do that?? can I connect my monitor and desktop and wifi router to one single UPS?
Depends on the UPS, but most likely yes.
I have two, well my Router is on the other side of the house.
Two things to look for, max Wattage of the UPS. and how long it will last at your idle use and full power use, if your using it just to for power stability, just make sure it has enough wattage.

Can I buy a UPS just to add some sort of buffer in between? Could it prevent damage to my system caused by unstable power?
Yes, get one for the WiFi too

I always thought if it was so great then why does Linus use 2 mice and 2 keyboards on the WAN Show, that was enough for me not to bother trying it. Especially since there is NO TRIAL version, I'm hesitant to pay for software that promises what amounts to magic voodoo but doesn't prove it works with a Trial version.
Synergy is free technically, only the complied version is paid, if you download and compile yourself then it's free.

Why would they use virtualization? For what purpose?
a 7 gamers 1 (2*) cpu sort of setup, but instead of it being 7 gamers, 7 editors.
I would guess there's to many bugs for their setup atm.
My old HS's plan, next upgrade cycle is to go to centralized server for the engineering computers with thin clients.
The library computers are already using this.
Plus Intel sponsored, (assuming their sponsorship allowed for it) they could have gone all out , and have produced and multi episode series on this @LinusTech
Edit:
saw @nicklmg's comment
SpoilerThis was directly answered in the video by referencing this video.
Maybe Next Gen Cpu's with higher clocks will be more efficient? (Or more realistic next upgrade cycle 5 years from now?)
I would be interested to see if using more lower core count higher clocked, in a multi socket board, instead of just 1 ballin cpu, would be a better solution.
so essentially 4 of these https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/xeon/e7-processors/e7-8893-v2.html
vs 1 of these https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/xeon/e7-processors/e7-8890-v4.html
or somethings in between.

No Virtualization yet for the Editors? , Maybe next upgrade cycle?
They complained about Windows "Check for updates" button taking forever on WAN show... but linux isn't that fast either?

One thing to keep in mind is that on Linux, the updater updates (almost) all your applications.
On Windows, it basically only updates Windows, some drivers, and a couple other MS Related Applications. (Office)
