Would you rather use an intel nic or a Realtek one though

I got an rx580 and I haven’t played a single game on it. Not even solitaire or minesweeper.

Cygni posted:So I've got a great little HTPC/NAS, an Ivy Bridge i7 - 3770S in a tiny ITX Antec case with some external USB drives attached for mass storage, and it is more than powerful enough for whats in there and what i do with it... if you really want to build something hilarious and amazing, just search on aliexpress for "x79" or "x99". You'll stumble upon an entirely new world of chinese manufacturers stripping old server hardware and building brand new motherboards that support cheap v1/2 or v3/4 xeons on the desktop

They’re gonna save it for hedt because its not like theres any reason to buy intel hedt

Not sure why you would buy an 11900 over an 11700? Ok you lose some boost and a few mhz’s but still 8/16?

BIG HEADLINE posted:At least they're not using proprietary ATX connectors on their *motherboards* anymore. They used to change the pin-in config so you couldn't easily replace or upgrade the PSU without seeking one out that had the correct connectors, but they made it possible for you to plug in a regular ATX PSU because *reasons*. PC Power & Cooling sold Dell-wired units, and I nearly killed my P2 450 box trying to plug an Antec unit in and realizing poo poo was awry when I smelled burning plastic before I even hit the power button. Probably saved my PC. yeah now they just use propriatary connectors too and the power supply only supplies 12v with the motherboard providing the other voltages granted the power supplies are high quality, but

I’m not worried about it because (and i could be completely wrong about any or every part of this) - the circuitry and components aren’t expensive or rare - if dell and hp, companies well known for pinching out cheap pc’s by the million can do it, then theres no reason why companies like asusor msi can’t. - those micro desktops for offices already do it with a power brick and those bricks are absolute garbage tier quality - adapters already exist / will exist - most good psus are already capable of putting out their whole output on the 12v so its not like the old days of cross loads - seasonic made a psu which only does 12v and has an additional module which does the 5 and 3.3 and the 24 pin comes out of that. With just a new set of cables and not using that module, its basicallt 12vo - the enthusiast builders and small companies are a tiny part of the market

the core naming scheme is a dumb way of naming things in the first place. pentium 4: okay, it's the 4th pentium core duo: sure, it's got 2 cores now. core 2 solo, duo, quad: sure, it's the second version of core core i7: the 7th generation of processors oh but then there's core i5 which is the 5th generation? wait i7 2nd generation? 3rd generation? core i9? core i3?

remember that intel dropped celeron and pentium in favor of "intel processor"

Core i was never good naming but at least it was consistent for a long time. Like it was i7 for the 7th generation of something but then they turned it into 3 5 7 and then added another number for generation instead of going up to 8

The wildest intel processor is still the first 10nm chip they made just to comply with a deadline, and they shipped it in a single lenovo laptop in china.

I’m trying to figure out why the xeon platinum 8156 exists
|
# ¿ Aug 14, 2023 03:24 |

Looking at the various lists, it still doesn’t seem to make sense even for licensing; platinum 8256: 4c8t, 3.8-3.9ghz, 16.5 mb L3 cache, 8 sockets, 105w tdp, $7007 versus: gold 5222: 4c8t, 3.8-3.9ghz, 16.5 mb L3 cache, 4 sockets, 105w tdp, $1221 So you lose the ability to do 8 sockets but you save $5786

At least its better than the xeon naming A xeon platinum 8156 is better than the gold 6254r right?

People demand more rgb and metal covers and those costs have to come from somewhere (not by decreasing the mobo price though)
