    Gamers report memory RGB lights are damaging GPU backplates

    average 3 chip LED does not emit light in the UV or IR spectrum... UV leds require special glass to pass the UV light (and are extremely expensive comparatively), and IR leds are made specifically for that purpose, there would be no reason to include them in lighting

    So is it true you can plug SATA drives into SAS connectors?

    that's not a PC it's just an expander, if you attach that to a computer via a SAS cable it basically just takes the 4 SAS lanes from your controller and turns them into 24... I use those exact shelves with my lenovo servers... pop in a dell perc h830 card, attach the shelf via a SFF-8644 to...

    Gamers report memory RGB lights are damaging GPU backplates

    RGB leds don't emit UV or IR in any appreciable amount... this is probably more heat related than a light thing

    Remembering the Nvidia GeForce 256 – the first PC gaming GPU

    the GeForce 256 was the first time I questioned my alliance to 3DFX, the GeForce2 was when I switched... still miss 3DFX dearly though

    Pentium 4 2.0ghz Socket 423 SL5SZ

    yes and maybe, the reason it's kind of more useful now than it was even back then is it's got decent windows 98 support (drivers etc), so if you want to play old games P4s are going to be wayyyyy cheaper than PIII stuff is now... so it doesn't matter if a P4 1.7ghz can't outperform a 1.4GHz PIII...

    Intel Publishes "X86-S" Specification For 64-bit Only Architecture

    ARM is just jumping from one frying pan into another... plus ARM was going to take over "any day now" for what, like at least a decade or more? RISC-V is the only ISA that I think has a real future but it's still a bit away although approaching rapidly, the performance improvements on RISC-V...

    I have been having a ton of problems with yoyo WUs just stopping, they stop at even numbers (20%, 40%, 60% etc) and just sit there doing nothing, CPU idle, been aborting them after a while but this is getting frustrating

    ok i apologize for all the noob questions but is it normal for the GPU tasks to not be using 100% of the GPU? all of mine seem to use 70% or so of compute 1 and nothing else

    SETI.Germany's 14th Annual Pentathlon (2023)

    I don't know whats going on with the yoyo projects but the machine was sitting at like 3% cpu usage and none of the WUs had progressed (they were all stuck at like 80% for 8 hours) I aborted them and now it started new ones and is using 100% cpu again
