Howdy, [H].
My current build is as follows:
i7-10700
Gigabyte H470 AORUS PRO AX
Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32 GB (4 x 8 GB) DDR4-2933 CL16
TEAMGROUP MP34 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME
EVGA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti
Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV
The build itself has been... meh. I've built several machines before, and...
I am switching to an SFF build and want to change platforms at the same time. Everything works just fine. Prices are OBO.
$220 $190 - Gigabyte H470 AORUS PRO AX
$115 $110 - 32GB Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR4-2933
$190 - Intel i7-10700 (Non-K)
As above, I'm building out an old LGA1366 and want to max out the triple channel ram. Looking for three 8gb DDR3-1600 sticks. Registered or Unregistered is fine. ECC would be sweet.
I have a Seasonic X-1050 1050W that's been in the system for nearly 8 years. The warranty was 5 years. It's been bulletproof. Never overclocked, and frankly, probably never used at 50% capacity.
I'm doing a significant system refresh. Should I trust it moving forward, or retire it for a new one?
Pretty simple question. My LGA 2011 started throwing CPU fan errors, then wouldn't boot. I figured the H80 finally took a dump as the LED on the front only worked on 2/3 of the fan speed settings.My new cooler showed up and the CPU will be here shortly. I figured I'd pull apart the tower, dust...
I've been eyeing a GPU upgrade with the RTX 30xx series coming out. I've been toying with the idea for some time that I might want to upgrade, but have not kept up with chipsets/features that much. I'm wondering what the best budget upgrade might be for the following system:
Intel i7-3820...
As in title. My 680 is finally showing it's age 8 years later. I'd like to move to an RTX for RTX voice (professionally, that has a lot of use for me as I'm behind a microphone all day). That said, bang for the buck is really the higher priority.
I do game, but more often than not am running...
Greetings, [H].
First, this is furniture related so if it's not appropriate, I'll understand.
I need to replace my current media cabinet. It's an old 1950's entertainment stand that used to hold an AM/FM radio, 5" turntable, and cassette to cassette reel, which started like this and was gutted...
Asking $300 for the Mobo. Will entertain offers.

Am willing to bundle. I believe I have the boxes for...
I've got three EA231WMi monitors. They've been mostly bulletproof. One has been flickering for the last couple days, and today, I think it bit the dust. It will flash my desktop for 2 seconds, then go black. My power indicator stays blue, so it appears to understand it's getting a signal (rather...
I've been asked to spec out a system for a small 7 camera system. Ive done the math, and determined that a Synology 2415+ will likely be the host, as it's got software built in for our purposes. I need cameras that have the following. All indoor use.

Long story short: I have one and it's simply too large for where I live right now. I'm only using half of it, and I'd like to make space.
Here's the details:

So while on Christmas vacation, some tool decided to kick the side of my car repeatedly, severely damaging it. The vehicle was in it's assigned spot in front of our townhouse. The complex has security, but nothing that covers our spot, which is ten feet in front of my door. I'd like to set up my...
I really want to take the plunge on a nice set of headphones. I prefer they fit over my ear and are durable as I can be a bit rough with things (ei, I'm a 6'1 vet who has to navigate the airport with a 16 month old son. Things tend to get thrown around a bit and I'd like them to survive).
I...
Hello [H],
I'm in a fairly unique situation in which I need to communicate to someone in the same room with me via headset. What would be the best way to speak into my microphone, and then deliver my voice into their headset only? Would I need to use a second sound card?
Basically, I want...
Can anyone recommend a good $100-$200 pair of active noise canceling headphones? I'm looking for a pair to replace my Panasonic RP-HC500's that I bought back in 2005 as the circuit finally crapped out on me.
I realize I didn't answer these question initially. I've added them to assist in feedback. Thanks everyone.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
This build will be pushing a Oculus DK2 that I will be using in my doctoral research protocol. DK2...
I'm trying to figure out the best solution for semi-mobile work. By this, I mean I'm looking for either a laptop, or a Mini-ITX system that I can carry in a large backpack.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a 15" laptop with a full HD monitor, and the ability to drive 1 (preferably 2)...
Looking to put together a highly mobile platform for running virtual reality experiments (I'm a clinical psych graduate student). I run a GTX680 in my main machine, but it's in a massive Caselabs case.
Whats the best small form factor card these days for both single applications and SLI...
I'm looking into laptops, and was wondering what the mobile equivalents are to my desktop Gtx 680, as I don't want to step down performance worse. What's the minimum gpu I'd need?
Is anyone familiar with anything comparable to iSpy? I really like the interface, would like something that I don't have to shell out for monthly. I don't care if I need to purchase it outright.
I recently had a replace a failing drive in my freenas ZFS array. Everything went well, and the new drive is re-silvered and working, but I have a device labelled "Replacing-3" listed in the volume status that shows as degraded, and my only option is "Replace" in the GUI. Everything else...
Hello [H],
I'm a doctoral student in a clinical psychology program at a major university and have recently been tasked with managing certain confidential information for my lab. Currently, the information in question is dispersed on multiple portable USB hard drives, with no systematic...
Is it possible to migrate the OS bit of FreeNas to another device while keeping my volumes intact? I've been looking all over the place and haven't had any luck finding a specific guide to doing so.
Hi All,
So I've got a CIFS share on my FreeNas 8.3 server that I've been having some issues with. When I attempt to delete directories from my windows machine, every once and a while I get the error that the file/folder cannot be deleted because it's open in windows explorer. If I try again...
So I set up a small freenas storage system to experiment with the system and i'm really happy with it. My questions are as follows.
My main computer case has a 4U bay (the case is a Caselabs TX10D). I would love to utilize the bay I have, but I don't know anything about rackmount hardware...
So a while back I built a duel rig in a Caselabs TX10D. I have a side dedicated to my NAS, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to expand it as I've filled my native SATA ports on the board (Asus E35m1-Pro).
My questions are as follows:
Firstly, if I want to expand this system to a...
Basically, I've been trying to USB install WHS 2011 for hours now. After dealing with lots of "A required CD/DVD driver is missing errors", I got the system to boot into the new OS. However, I'm sitting at the "Preparing your Server Screen" and it's at 5%. An hour ago, it was at 4%.

So I was playing SC2 today when I was called away. I paused the game (Which was fullscreen on the middle of 3 monitors running on a GTX 680) and left. I'm assuming that my system shut down on it's inactive timer.
Anyway, when I came back, my middle monitor no longer works.
It doesn't...
Might anyone be aware of where I could locate a copy of the Seasonic X650 (SS-650KM) pinout? I've hit a snag with my sleeving, and need to confirm the plug data.
Has anyone used smart power strips? I'm trying to figure out a good way to eliminate Phantom power from my pc rigs. It's not that I'm too lazy to turn everything off, but I'm pretty forgetful.
Any suggestions?
Is anyone familiar with a good place to buy colored ATX connectors? I realize they are molex parts, but it seems like I either have to order 100 of them in a batch, or they don't have the specific connector I'm looking for.
Any help would be great!
