Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve Studio 16
Lord Mirdalan replied to SixtyfpsGaming's topic in Programs, Apps and Websites
That's where the hardware dongle would come in. Do you need that? -

Unless you need to jump machines often, skip the hardware dongle. And this: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1366318-REG/blackmagic_design_dv_resstud_davinci_resolve_stud_color.html -
What to offer for combo deal?
Lord Mirdalan replied to Lord Mirdalan's topic in New Builds and Planning
Really, half? I don’t think I can negotiate that well. -
Budget (including currency): <$600USD Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: 3ds Max w/ Arnold, Inventor, AutoCAD, etc. Someone about 1.5 hours away from me is offering a bundle of new-in-box parts for sale. They are: An Asus Prime Z490A ($214.99 new), 16GB of DDR4-3200 ($68.99 new), and an i7-10700k (379.88 new). Yea you did the math right, they want 102% of new price (before tax/shipping). I'm located in Northern CA, what would be a fair offer?
-
Hope springs eternal, I guess. Or maybe stupidity? One or the other.
-
Fair enough. I just googled the name of the website, and the second result was a list of fraudulent websites.

I'm looking to upgrade my rendering machine. I came across this too-good-to-be-true website: https://www.giutrei.club/products/msi-geforce-rtx-2070-rtx-2070-tri-frozr-graphics-card-8-gb-gddr6-256-bit-14472/?variant=0 Has anyone tried this vendor? They seem to sell only Nvidia cards and corsair RAM, and brand themselves like MSI. Thoughts?
-
Close. There's an option to select the default to be integrated graphics or the graphics card. I changed it to auto, and now it boots normally. Thanks! Also, it had hyperthreading disabled by default. Way to go, Dell.
-
That's a thing?

I'm upgrading an Optiplex 9020. It boots perfectly, but once I install the 1650 it won't post. I've tried a cheap AMD card and a Quadro as well to no avail. Any ideas? Thanks.

USB-C flash drive recommendations?
Lord Mirdalan replied to Lord Mirdalan's topic in Storage Devices
I don't know if I'd use that myself. Isn't the sequential performance pretty bad? -

Why would that be better that s solution like this? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1417005-REG/pny_technologies_p_fd128otgsltc_ge_pny_128gb_duo_link.html/qa I;m not saying you're wrong, just curious. -
USB-C flash drive recommendations?
Lord Mirdalan replied to Lord Mirdalan's topic in Storage Devices
I hadn't considered an external hard drive/SSD. Something like this? https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/memory-storage/portable-solid-state-drives/portable-ssd-t7-touch-usb-3-2-1tb-black-mu-pc1t0k-ww/ -
I'm buying my first machine with USB-C, and I've seen USB drives with Type-C on one end and Type-A on the other. Do any of you have experience/recommendations in this area? Thanks!
