Re: My Latest 8-core Project
Thanks. It's still running the pair of E5472's (3GHz 1600FSB quad core). This machine has never played a game, its the office workhorse....and it definitely pulls its weight!

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
Very nice...
Running a 771 chip myself, but found that a higher speed dual-core benefitted me greatly over the E5420. So it's got an L5240 which runs cooler and has a higher clock.
Still using a passively cooled Radeon 3450, just for the odd Counterstrike game now and again.Leave a comment:

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
To awaken another 4yr old thread.... This system has ran as my office machine since its creation in this thread. It's still running rock solid, no issues....but its time to freshen it up a little. There's 64GB of memory on the way, the most the board supports. I also bought a nvidia quadro NVS 510 2GB GPU, as the 9600GT is quite a relic.....and the reason I selected that, it has 4x v1.2 displayports (v1.2 supports 4k stuff for future expandability). I've been running 2x Dell 2709W's, and have come into a 3rd one. Going to try a 3 monitor setup....when I have a lot of stuff going, I find myself still needing more display real estate. I'm also cycling out the HDD's, upgrading the RAID controller, and replacing the HDD's with some 15K SAS drives. Stay tuned.Leave a comment:

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
Just for grins, here's the benchmarks from my main rig at home:
Specs:
...and the results...
Graphics bit me in the ass again....and my older 73gb raptors aren't looking that great either. DDR3 memory speed sure kicks butt though. The CPU's I want are 6-core, but cost about 1200 each...can't afford/justify that....so the e5520's are it for now.Leave a comment:

While not 100% accurate by anymeans, it was a medium we could all kind of compare to. My video card is killing me!! jeez, that thing scored horrible. CPU's and RAM were ranking pretty good. Wish I had trusty old sisoft 2012....the only place I can bootleg a legit pro copy, the download is broken...Leave a comment:

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
I don't really trust NovaBench...
my laptop got 590, my desktop got 754...
I'm going to try this next:

OK, the results are in...
MY DESKTOP is the one with the tree background, my laptop is one with the black desktop background...Last edited by shovenose; 04-26-2012, 06:50 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
Well,not sure how believeable this program is....its saying I have P3's, even after some patch they said it needed.....but here's the result after installing and running without a reboot. I had 2 browser windows up and outlook.
Specs....note what it says the processors are
...and the results...
From what I'm reading about this, the video card is the biggest killer of my overall score....Leave a comment:

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
Last time I did this, it was always sisoft sandra duels, comparing CPU benchmarks.....but that's been a good 8+ years ago... if it wasn't in person, it was posted screen shots. This was a common source of entertainment at any given LANfest. Considering this system was circa 2009 (atleast thats when the CPU's and motherboard were made), it'd be interesting to see where it came in.Leave a comment:

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
vista had suck ballish overhead. I've seen 7 run beautifully on quad core systems with 4gb that xp ran slower
I've seen higher processing power taken up because of XP's 2d rendering, which is barely directdraw. explorer is pretty much cpu based rendering. I've seen scrolling web pages have problems when a flash app is up in a browser on XP, but not on 7. Why? cause 7's video is pretty much hardware accelerated. True there is no performance difference between dx9/10/11 with windows gui cause it used dx9 no matter what, but it used some nice d3d rendering to make windows look awesome, but be video accelerated, taking tasks off the cpu
when was the last time you tried 7? have you?
I do realize that I see this behavior in XP x64 myself...
Don't get me wrong I actually do enjoy Win7 and at work it makes a nice productivity improvement over XP for me...
But at my home computer I never got around to actually using Win7 after the beta stage ended, since I made a clean install of the RTM I've simply been too lazy to install all the apps I needLeave a comment:

Don't get me wrong - you've got an awesome system there - I'm a bit jealous!Leave a comment:

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
I experimented with it on the right - I agree it's perfect for widescreens.
However it went back to bottom because I didn't like the way it put the icons in the taskbarLeave a comment:

That's just a personal preference....Always liked them that way, I believe thats why Billy Gates made them movable... Especially with widescreen monitors. Horizontal real estate is at a premium compared to vertical....so taskbar on the side... its even better on a 16:9. I always use 16:10 wides though.

Re: My Latest 8-core Project
I don't hate XP, but I despise having the start menu across the side.
Anyhow, it looks great otherwise.Leave a comment:

by sam_sam_samRight now Battery Hookup has these e-bike battery packs that are used but I am going to remove them and test them and see how good they are and maybe resell or reused them for another project this is for another day
When I get the rack mounted enclosure that I mentioned in another post I will see how well they fit in the enclosure and how much room I will have left

These battery packs are a little bit hard to get out of the enclosure because they were a little bit glue... -
by BladibladI have an interesting project here. I have a HP RTX 3060 12GB VRAM GPU with a shortcircuit between a (what I believe is) a coil and a cap. The short circuit is so bad that it will trigger a failsafe on the PSU.
I'm a beginner in this field and have managed to do only very simple board repairs so far. I have basic understanding of the components (mosfets, caps, nand chips) but completely diagnosing a board with schematics would be challenging. In this case though, I'm going to hope that replacing only the two shorted components will bring the card back to life (if none of the IC's... -
by EasyGoing1So based on some of the comments in my other posts, there seems to be some confusion or maybe some assumptions, I'm not sure exactly, so I wanted to hit the reset button on the entire discussion and make a few things clear that might not have otherwise been obvious.
First of all, the reason I post in this forum is that I simply do not have enough knowledge in electronics to do some things that I would like to do. So I post my questions in here and I try to be as thorough as possible MOST of the time, so that those of you who do take the time to respond, will be as informed as possible... -
by FireballczHello friends,
I need the latest firmware for Synology DS109.
The filename is DSM_DS109_3259.pat (about 170MB).
Umpossible to download from Synology, because their support for old devices is discontinued as of 2023-05-31.
Please does anybody have a backup?
Many thanks in advance.-
