Speccy thread

Time for a fresh screen

New rig.

Why is your motherboard so hot, lad?

incorrect reading
BIOS says its 23°

It's too goddamn hot today.

Waiting on Vega and Theadripper to drop. Probably buy the 16c/32t CPU, a new kit of ddr4 (thinking 64GB of 3200mhz 4x16GB) and 2 VEGA cards if they're truly going to be between a 1080 and 1080ti as some rumors suggest. Then maybe another nvme SSD.

Are you rich?

He's right though, that would cost less than $5k which is the price of the latest quadro

Like so fucking rich that I don't have to worry about any bills ever? No but I'm far from poor. My job also offers profit sharing checks. I make $1000 for every Billion dollars the company makes. (I usually get cut a check for around $10k a year on top of my weekly income. $6k after taxes).

So I use that check or portions of that check to upgrade shit. Pay off my car etc.

It depends on the usage, I don't think you need the 16C for gaming.

You should think of a 1080 Ti, is your screen a TV too? I got the 50" Samsung UHD today and can't wait to game on it. But I need to get the cables first.

>price of the latest quadro

so? I game on my PC and do video editing/encoding. With 32 threads, I can game, encode a 1080p blu-ray remux, render an edited video, and have a VM up all simultaneously.

...

yeah it's the 55js9000, input lag is 20ms, 240hz/ 120fps is possible but it's technically capped at 60hz. you can check that on rtings

I tried hdmi but I'd recommend dvi to hdmi 2.0 cables on amz. as long as you get ycbcr444 it's fine

I get the irony but it's just like overclocking going to the highest performance possible when you hit the highest level in a world then a new realm opens and it's just starts all over and you question your motive afaik I built this for 4k video before realizing how early everything is still so early in terms of storage and bandwidth

For what it's worth hitting 8k then 16k to scale is nice, machine learning is another ballpark but if you're running a 100 VMs allocated to a hundred users on a network then it's cool but threadripper is so good on the server level, enterprise perf accessible to the consumer is great but the downside is buttoin mining obliterating prices (how vega scales to that)

pasta

>Hitting one high and then another opens up

Yup. I'd never have thought I'd have 16 threads without dropping a G. Now there's talk about 32 thread CPUs with all the bells and whistles of Server stuff but with unlocked multipliers. I though Ryzen would be my stopping point, but 8 DIMM motherboards with 64 pcie 3.0 lanes, multiple NVME mount points, etc. And all of it from AMD.

I was always rooting for AMD even when I had my i5. Now that all this is a reality, I can't help but want it.

Yeah AMD was always straight to the point and very honest. Previous was a 955 BE Deneb one of the legit 4 cores and the ati hd 6x/7x series were great when buttcoin took off before amd bought them out

when you're running enterprise level or professional rendering equipment at home it's just great, just consider for one the internet of things, you could industrial revolutionize everything through an rfid/nfc server for smart homes with emphasis on encryption and global connectivity if you live in another home

traditionally the frugal mindset is fine for delimited purposes but hitting the level where you go beyond what's possible and useful instead of just being limited, and it's creatable and the knowledge is available. This is where the trickle down on normie hardware happens, it's pushing this principle of tech overall esp. with automation around the corner

the price is right nevertheless, I'm seeing nvidia charging gpus that are going to be the price of automobiles at this rate and hopefully AMD provides a realistic counterbalance for non-speculated perf that's actually useful instead of branded

...

To be fair, this cost about the same as a car in 2006. All hardware is original 2006 build.

Just upgraded edition.
CPU under full load, 212 EVO fan at idle. This NT-H1 paste ain't bad.

Built for gaming now used to hoard shit

...

...

I used this pos for 7 years

Shit posting machine, dual booting XP and Xubuntu. I might try others distros too.

>All these white dick sized hdds
>while your girlfriend is taking all 8TBs

Really shitty family prebuilt pc

forgot pic

I want 8tb hdds, just waiting for them to become more affordable. I have even more externals hdds,(250gb,320gb,3x 1tb, 2x 2tb) The 3tb wd internal was only $75 and the external was $80 I think.

Installed a couple of spare laptop HDDs lying around the house.

spare parts shitbox

I'm proud of my screens
