I need some help getting pointed in the right direction...
We have a remote farm that we want to mount a couple of cameras. One camera as a sort of area shot the other more directly at the ground. When it looks stormy, then be able to watch or pull up archived footage to look for hail.

I've been running a 32in 1440p display at both home and work for about 18mo. I just sat down to my old display, a 32in 1080p and was amazed at how much grainier it was.
I've been thinking about getting a 32in 4k display at home...how much would that annoy me at work with "only" 1440p?
I run an msi b450 a pro max with a 3600x, 32gb ram and rx 570 for a minecraft server running ubuntu. This morning I shut it down to install a 3080. When I started back up the monitor went on and the cursor blinked and then stopped. The VGA debug light just stays on. Swapped back to the...
I know I cant be the only one that keeps an old machine around to test new configurations and concepts so I can reinstall a new OS without screwing anything up.
What does everyone use to test stuff?
I have an fx-8350 with 16gb of ram with a mobo that actually has an nvme slot. Gpu is either...
I have a monoprice display the showed a vertical red line last week. Good news is the display is still under warranty for four more days. Bad news is the line disappeared. How do I get it to show up again so I get a picture of the error for them?
I have an old Z97 system sitting in the store room that i got out last night to tinker with. I plugged it in and noticed the net jack didn't just work...it took a reboot. But ok, whatever. Over the night, it went through all the updates.
This morning, no network. Not only that, when I plug...
I have been using the old tried and true IntelliMouse since they came out. On one of the ones I have the thumb button is busted. What is the modern equivalent?
And I've had the Pro and the regular optical, and honestly, I like the regular better...thumb button back, ring button forward...
Working at trying to build a dual boot Windows/Hackintosh and my 3080 isn't compatible with MacOS. Looking to acquire a 6900 xt or a 6950 xt. Could trade back a 3070 or 3080 10GB.
My bluray drive i use to rip DVDs on my machine has been dying, so I hot a new on a few months ago. The old drive finally couldn't read anything so last night put the new drive in. What I didn't realize was the new drive is capable of reading 4k discs with a firmware reversion. Not only that...
I got one of these m.2 10gbe adapter thingies. Why, well, because I didn't have enough regular x4 slots and PCIe lanes to handle a regular card and my capture card.
I got the thing plugged in and all, and it seems to work that is until it gets so hot it cuts in and out. The heatsink on it...
I need to find a suitable mate for the existing ram I already have.

It is teamgroup 3200 single rank unix modules running...
More of a rant...
But the backside ram on the 3090 sure is annoying. It just gets smoking hot without any true heatsink back there when really getting taxed So, it seems really the best way to control the heat back there is a full coverage water block. I have a couple like that and they're...
I got this SP NVME

earlier this year and it is now massively corrupt. Not sure of anyone else's experience on them...
I'll RMA it, but sure makes me gunshy.
I've had this motherboard since I "won" it in a shuffle. I went out and got a waste of sand 11700 (non-K) to put in it for a minecraft server.
I got it working on Tuesday. Now, this morning I can't get it to POST. I acts dead mostly dead. No beeps, the fans won't spin, the troubleshooting...
I'm trying to setup a 10Gb/s network between my main NAS, my Windows Emby/Minecraft server and then a test NAS.
NAS is a 4790k with a 10gbe card and the Windows box is a E5-2699 v3 on a Gigabyte X99-UD5 with a 10gbe card. The test NAS is an old FX-8320..nothing special. These boxes are...
I took advantage of the newegg sale like ten days ago and grabbed four of the 20GB drives to replace the four 8TB drives in my Emby box as they are getting full.
Present system:
Uses are for hosting Emby and hosting a minecraft server running a bunch of mods
Gigabyte X99-UD5
E5-2696 V3

I need a new to me X299 mobo for my media server. While I posted a WTB here and am hoping for the best, I am also looking through fleabay.
I need it to be full ATX because I need to get my GPU down out of the way of all my drive cages. I use a 9800x coupled with a 1080ti for my decoding, so...
I have an MSI X299 SLI Plus that I've been using with a 1080ti to do my media server. I swapped monitors today and then all hell broke loose. Now, I can't get the thing to boot properly. I get three long beeps and the led code D6, which is a no output to console error...GPU type thing.
So I...
Went to a tour with what could be a new apple product in a few years. Present code name is Wa64.
It is a 2004 cross between cripps pink and honeycrisp. I found it had good texture and sugar but lacked some astringency.
Nothing like some click bait from your friendly neighborhood apple farmer.
My son's nintendo switch doesn't charge anymore. I've tried a different charger, cleaning the port port out with some alcohol and a toothbrush, compressed air, etc. No dice. Anyone have any advice on that one?
Awhile ago I bought a used XFX Vega 56 that had been converted to be watercooled. As it was used, it didn't have the original heatsink for air cooling. No biggie as I had the pieces to utilize it.
Fast forward to now and it is just sitting around and really can't be utilized very well. I...
This is new as of last week...
Any sort of moderate load on my 3090 and it just turns the screen off and makes me need a system reboot. Last night minecraft forced a reboot. I also know it kicks me from the game as my son told me I had left.
What would cause this behavior???
Nothing earth shattering here...just stupid venting...
I have a couple fx systems lying around for some dumb reason...probably because they were free.
I have a fx 8320 and then an fx 4300. It truly is amazing how big of a turd the fx 4300 is. Even with an SSD it is laggy with just every day...
My son's PC seems to sometimes shut down and reboot in the middle of multiplayer AOE II and AOE III. It doesn't seem to happen during single player nor in other games. No clue what is causing it...
Mobo was a MSI B450 A Pro Max and now a B550 steel legend, so that isn't it...
CPU is a 5800x...
I have a vega 56 I purchased used. It had a waterblock installed and didn't have the factory air cooler. It wasn't a big deal at the time as I put it on my beast miner...
Now that mining is effectively dead, I'm not sure what to do with it. The waterblock makes it kinda useless without...
So in my mining card decommissioning project, I have a couple 3080s on full cover water blocks. I am going to put one on my son's machine, which currently is a 3600xt. I can cram a 240 on the top and a 120 in the rear. Is that going to be enough for those to components?
Any guesses what sort of power cost it will take for say 3000 series nvidia or 6000 series radeons to bring back more than the cost of power the week after the merge? My guess is it will be somewhere less than 4¢.
I have a couple 3080s and 3090s I installed waterblocks on that I have been using for mining. It was quite the beast of a contraption I built, using a fountain pump, heat exchanger and then swimming pool water to cool everything. Well, that was that and now eth mining is done and I am left...
After a used copy of super mario odyssey. Only looking to spend in the $25-30 range. If you have one you don't want, let me know....if not, no worries.
I have noticed something interesting the past few days...seems that the price of the Zen3s are going up...
I was getting really excited about ten days ago when ANTonline had the 5900x for $329. Was thinking about an in socket upgrade and figured it would fall a bit further. Now they have the...
I've got a GP-P750GM PSU that is dead. It wasn't an explosive SN, but it has always been weak sauce, so never used it much. Now it is dead. Is it even worth trying to RMA it?
I have a gigabyte 3080 that a capacitor just broke off while doing some thermal pad replacements. Tabs must have been weak.
it reads on the top:
5KB10
820
2.5v
I can't figure out what the first line is trying to convey. Any help?
Pretty sure my X299 media server system board died and I have decided to stick with X299 because of the way the x16 slots are arranged and the clearances in my server case.
I have this brand new in box Strix Z590-E Gaming Wifi motherboard that has been sitting in my closet for months I just...
So it is for a used unit at tisk.com. Now, I know nothing about tisk.com. If legit, it would be tempting to grab one...as far as I can tell, tisk is legit, but I have no experience. If they are known to be fraud, let me know so I can delete it before someone gets hosed...
