I have a friend gifting me an i5-9600k as an upgrade from my aging i7-4770. So I am in search of a decent but not super expensive Z390 board for it. I don't know if I'll bring my hardware RAID card over for scratch drive use or not, but I'd like the option if I can. Please save me from the...

I'm looking for a dual band PCIe 802.11AC adapter that won't break the bank. I had purchased an Edimax EW-7822UAC and they seem to be hit or miss as to if they will work or not. Mine didn't and I'd rather have internal anyway.

Although it will mostly be relegated to use with my Roku & Blu-Ray players I will have a Raspberry Pi 3 running RetroPIE hooked up so I figure it fits here. I am looking for an inexpensive but decent 5.1 surround system for my house. Currently we have an old Sony 5 disc DVD 5.1 system we got...

Not sure if this is the right place, but I need to pass the 70-334 & 70-333 certifications for work (Core Solutions of Microsoft Skype 2015 for Business & Deploying Enterprise Voice with Skype for Business 2015) but I want to take a practice test for each before hand. Does anyone know of a good...

Hi, After getting laid off I decided that getting my CCENT, CCNA & CCNP would help me in my job search. Problem is, I do not have any hardware to use for this process. I'm thinking of buying a lab kit off eBay or Amazon, would the following be the correct hardware to take me through my...

Is a GT 440 powerful enough to be a dedicated PhysX card? I have one that I will be installing while I wait for my GTX770 to come back from RMA but if it will work for PhysX I'd like to keep it in my computer.

Does the computer with the UniFi controller software have to be running all the time or can it be shutdown and still have the APs work?

So right now, I have a Linksys E1200 Router, a Rosewill 5 port gigabit switch, D-Link 5 port gigabit switch & a Trendnet 8 port gigabit switch. Switches work fine but I would really like to consolidate them as much as possible. However, the router is pissing me off to no end. Been having...

I am thinking of working towards my CCNA (or CCENT) and I know I will need to build a lab for it. Would one of the lab kits on eBay be worth my time, or would I be better off getting the pieces individually? Right now, I am looking at this one...

Ok, I am sick and tired of crappy SoHo routers and cannot justify a full blown enterprise router at home. I have been reading about the RouterBoard RB750GL and for the price it appears that it will be a good fit for what I want. Does anyone have experience with it or RouterOS. If you do and...

I replace my dead Radeon HD 5770 with an ASUS GeForce GTX DirectCU II around Christmas. Since I did that I have been having issues with games crashing. At first I thought it was my PSU since it was technically lower than the required wattage (550w vs 600w). Tonight I just put a 600w PSU in...

I have an extra Steam key for Sid Meier’s Ace Patrol & Sid Meier’s Ace Patrol: Pacific Skies. Asking $2.50 each. Prefer Paypal payments. Will be sent as Steam gift.

Not sure if this is the right spot but here we go. Basically, I have two VPSes. I want each one to be a backup for the other (so one is primary for one site and the other is primary for another site). But, I want the MySQL databases between them to be replicas and to also be able to pull any...

I just installed OpenIndiana & napp-it on my MicroServer after I realized that using OmniOS + napp-it & using NFS to export it to Ubuntu so it could manage the shares didn't work quite how I needed to. I am currently downloading my backup from CrashPlan on my MicroServer. I need to know how to...

Is it possible to flash a LSI SATA/SAS 9212-4i4e to IT mode? I am planning my MicroServer upgrade (currently on OmniOS omnios-d3950d8 & napp-it 0.9) and I want to be able to add drives in an external enclosure as well as a ZIL & L2ARC drive. Looking at that card as it will give me the four...

I am going to be redoing my home storage server. Currently I have Ubuntu Server 12.04 + Amahi loaded on my N40L but I want to switch to ZFS RAIDZ1 or RAIDZ2 just since I have some data I want to protect as much as possible and the ZFS checksums are part of that plan. I will be loading...

Looking for a smallsih (~64GB) SSD. Doesn't have to be super high performing but needs to be good enough to use for Intel Smart Respose Technology. Definately doesn't have to be brand new, but has to have life left in it.

I'm looking for a CPU cooler better than my stock Intel cooler that also won't put a lot of stress on my motherboard when I bring my computer to a friends for mini LAN parties. I have an i5-3570k and plan to overclock it in the near future which is another reason I want to swap coolers. My...

What is the best way to determine if your HDs are advanced format drives? I have 4 1TB drives and I know for sure 1 is AF, 1 is not AF but I have no clue about the other . I have the following drives Western Digital WD10EADS-65L - Not Advanced Format Western Digital WD10EACS-00Z - Not...

As the title states, I need a PCI eSATA card. Needs to support Port Multiplication (same type as the SiL 3124) and it needs to work in NAS4Free 9.1 (FreeBSD 9.0).

I plan on adding items to this as I go (and dig more out of their hiding spot). To start I present my Dreamcast. 3 regular controllers 3 controller extension cables Fishing Controller Light gun controller Keyboard Mouse 1 VMU 1 Third party memory card 2 Third party rumble packs/memory cards...

Selling my 32GB Eee Pad Transformer TF101 & dock. Wife and I don't use both our tablets enough to justify keeping both so one has to go. She likes the color of hers better so mine is the lucky one. Item Description : Up for sale is my TF101 32GB with dock and accessories. The accessories...

Which is the best SSD cache drive out of the ones I have listed? OCZ Synapse Corsair Accelerator Crucial Adrenaline Both the Corsair & Crucial drives are ~$100 for the largest capacity so I'm leaning towards them over the OCZ (w/ OCZ you only get a 30GB drive for the same price) but I...

I currently have a Linux box at home running as my DHCP/DNS/OpenVPN/IPSec VPN/etc server. The IPSec VPN Server is Racoon, however so far I have only been able to get it to hand out address in the 10.8.1.1-255 subnet when my normal subnet is 172.16.6.1-255. Problem with this I cannot access any...

Hello, I have a HP MicroServer N40L on its way. I am wondering if they support VTd like the N36L does. HP doesn't list anything and I can't find anything either. I just want to be able to pass my SiL3132 card to a VM since ESXi doesn't actually support said card.

Anyone have experience with it or any GT 545? Wife's Radeon HD 4830 died on me last night so I need a new video card for her. Also wondering how it compares to the Radeon HD 5770 (what I have now) since if its better I may get it for me and put my 5770 in her computer.

I'm trying to get one of the applications we have where I work generating SNMP traps based on information we write to a custom Event Log. I can get the data to the event log just fine, and our test SNMP server can do SNMP gets just fine. But according to Wireshark, no SNMP traps are generated...

I need a 1GB DDR 333+ SO-DIMM for an iBook G4 my brother-in-law gave me. Doesn't have to be anything fancy, just needs to be DDR 333 or better.

Hi, I'm registered for the giveaway. However, I just noticed that my main folding machine at work hasn't turned in a WU since the 20th, come to find out its because it couldn't get any big WUs. I just re-configured it to get all, but will this drop me out of the giveaway?

I'm running FAH GPU Tracker V2 and its showing lots of "FTP Upload Failed" errors. Looks like its my GPU client that is messed up. Anyone have a clue on what could cause this?

I decided to get back into folding now that the temps are decreasing again (AC can't keep up in the summer) & I'm using FAH GPU Tracker V2. I would like to use the XML export feature to upload the XML files to my web host so I can view them at work. Is there any PHP based web app that will let...

I have looked online and haven't found anythign yet, but what I need is a bash script that will send an email out to a pre-determined list of people when a file is modified. That way I don't need to tell my Android app testers that a new build is done (yes, I'm lazy that way). Doesn't seem...

Ok, I got a Commodore 64 for free today and if it doesn't run correctly with its origional hardware I want to build a m-ITX system out of it. Problem is, only mini-ITX boards I can find w/ TV Out are VIA C7 boards that support a max of 1GB RAM. Anyone know where to find a board that supports...

I am in need of a new 785g AM2+ motherboard for my main machine. It must have 4 DIMM slots, 1 PCIe X16 (2 would be nice), 1 PCIe x1 (more is fine), a working NIC & Core unlocking would be a big bonus (my Phenom II 550BE will run w/ four cores).

Ok, I know WD says 3-5 business days for an advanced RMA (my 750GB Black died) but I'm just curious as how how accurate this is. Posted via Mobile Device

Ok, I put my nice Intel PCIe Gigabit NIC into my home server since support for Marvell NICs in Linux isn't as good as for Intel NICs. Is there a relitavely inexpensive PCI Gigabit NIC with PXE support out there? I'd get another PCIe one, but I decided I want to be able to watch TV on my...

Is it possible to use thick provisioning in ESXi when you are using an Openfiler NFS export for your datastore? Other people are going to be using our dev/testing ESXi servers in the near future and I want to prevent any possible issue with space being over committed and then running out.

We added a new server to our ESXi "cluster" (i.e. made it a cluster). It is a HP DL140 G3 w/ 2 Xeon 5140 CPUs, 32GB RAM & 2 73GB 10k RPM SAS Drives. I can run 32-bit hosts on it fine and according to the VMware CPUID utility it supports 64-bit guests. The following are the supported items...

I'm looking for something like this but that costs a lot less. I need 2 of them total.
