tell me the minimum size of a laptop with mxm-b support
Reciever replied to xXxWITCHxXx's topic in What Laptop Should I Buy?
14" mxm never seen it before. Plenty of 15.6" options though -

As far as I know that doesn't exist. -

P150em, p150sm, p157sm-a, p775tm, p750zm for a general ballpark range, those are the oem model numbers, resellers will have their own badge on them as well. Zbook 15 but will require modification M15x but uses first gen i7, collectors tend to want these, not as much for practicality. There are more but this is just off the top of my head. Good luck! -
Some of my coworkers asked me to play Grim Dawn recently, doesnt half bad.

*Official Benchmark Thread* - Post it here or it didn't happen :D
Reciever replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
Is that the same fan the Der8auer released a video about? I like 2150rpm, seems to be a good compromise for my personal use case but I cant lie, been tempted with the 3000rpm for overclocking from time to time. Instead of metal fans I'd love to see a company take a shot at reverse blade high static pressure fans for system builders. Would probably be criticized for noise but considering I have about a dozen fans going in my room I dont really care all that much. -
If the P870DM is mpcie then thats usually resolved with an adapter. That being said I believe someone just installed WiFi7 into the P870 in the official thread

Reciever replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
I also like to know, or at least have some inclination of what I am talking about. A lot of people come to me at work or people I mingle with online know that I am a system builder and tinker more than I should. As such, I generally get a lot of inquiries about building PC's so i'll recommend some things based on some criteria. Due to that, I like what I have been hearing about ARC, but have no experience with it. Would love to be able to recommend it for some people without the caveat of second hand knowledge. Might be a while though :( Too many projects and not enough human I/O lol -

I want one to play with. Dont need it for my main PC as I still have my 3090, and these are slower than the 5700XT's according to what I am reading but just interested in the product. -
Good Evening Ladies and Gents! This has become a growing interest for me personally as well as professionally and was curious to what and how others make their own approaches to the topic. For me, since mining has been mostly curtailed these days I have finally repurposed all the equipment that I had, along with some equipment not used for mining and a few additional purchases. As such my starting point is probably different from most which means the learning curve is a bit up there... Open Bench - Would like to setup a multi-head Gaming VM 10850K @ 5.0Ghz 16GB DDR4 @ 4000Mhz 256GB SSD 2x 5700XT's X520-DA2 10Gbps DAC SFP+ 6x HP T630's - HA? Container/Docker? 128GB SSD 16GB DDR4 Optiplex Micro 7050 - Remote End Point i7 7700 32GB DDR4 256GB SSD Connected via switch + WiFi + Console 2x Precision 7810's 2x Xeon E5 2650 12c/24t 128GB DDR4 2-3TB SSD (NVME/SATA) 4x1Gbps NIC X520-DA2 10Gbps DAC SFP+ K2200 Cisco 48p 1Gbps PoE, 4 SFP Its way more than I need right now, but I have been wanting to get a better understanding of how SCCM/MECM works which is its own huge undertaking, then my friend at work told me about vcenter/vsphere and that it looked like what I should be dabbling with (at the time was dabbling with proxmox). As such took a step back and rebuilt everything with VMware. Then later he gave me a Cisco switch, then I realized I still had the t630's and the 10850K system was sitting dormant after I wrapped up the comparison thread. Things are a little out of hand. Im curious what you guys may have up your sleeves?

Chess has defined rules that cant be broken. Life does not suffer the same restrictions You are also comparing one tool meant for a particular purpose, what I believe @Etern4l is saying is that the tool you are using as your example is ill-suited for the purpose when there are better out there already. Apples and Oranges, I believe.

I would never buy prebuilt, I do tend to buy used almost exclusively. That being said I havent bought a desktop in a while. No need. If you still have your laptop, you could also look at eGPU's provided you have an 11th gen processor, they are much better since TB controller is embedded in the CPU now so one of the issues cutting into efficiency was resolved under those scenarios. -

Me as well. Considering how stagnant the space had become after locking out many attributes from the user, given the timing Intel can swoop in and grab all that hype given that its appropriately priced. Still interested to see what AMD does with their strategy in terms of architecture as that was quite interesting as well, but no idea when that will be available to the public. -
Even in the event of shipping from Mexico, its merely assembled in Mexico and not manufactured there. Not saying you stated otherwise, just an additional detail. I have also received PC's from Poland but that was during the covid pandemic when supply was low. A majority of Dell systems that I work with come directly from Genco, which is one of the larger 3rd party distributors based here in the US where I facilitate the customer requirements. That being said I handle personally in the hundreds of systems a day for a single client. The unfortunate part of handling a single one off is that is very expensive and no one wants to pay for that service especially if it ends up failing, then the expenses double.

Its been an issue with the past couple generations of their product line. It looks like most people get around this by using static routing via MAC address but that only resolves things for at home. Just in case it happens in your case that might be a satisfactory resolution since it seems you work from home for the most part. If I had to guess, maybe a crashed app. This used to happen to me the last time I had an Apple device but mind you that was the Iphone 4 lol

It is unfortunate, but there will always be times where particular personalities dont mingle well together. I have my biases just as any other but I do make the attempt to understand others' position which can be quite difficult pending the circumstances. Hey happy to see you are satisfied with your recent purchases! My journey with the Pixel line started with the Pixel 6 then later 7 Pro. Both seem to have the same issue where they drop WiFi every 15 minutes or so and also lose connection to 5G requiring a restart, the latter being far less common. Between this and lack of a desktop mode for when I am in a bind at work its proven itself to be an unreliable tool so I will not be looking at these products for the next generation. That being said the camera works very well, SMS and Teams do quite well and the battery can last me about a day with an hour of video podcasts and bluetooth enabled I usually am around 40-50% by the time I go to bed (dont use my phone much at all at home).

Ah yes, looks like I misread :(

LVDS support should excite quite a few people, though not sure how that will work in practice My P750FM is actually set up to handle the GPU die position, but the odds of me getting one are quite low considering the likely price of these things.

Precision M4600 Owners Thread
Reciever replied to Hertzian56's topic in Pro Max & Precision Mobile Workstation
Dont bother with 2960xm, too hot at stock and no, no overclocking. Look for an i7 2860qm, arguably the best chip for the platform. -
most dont notice it until they experience it. Now I use 144hz for all monitors save for my 40" HDTV. Some will never know that 144hz when dont correctly resolves headaches and nausea as the mind detects incongruity with whats on display and interaction of thereof.

It could be just my experience around Twitter, but I dont remember it ever being touted as a free speech zone. More of a means to be able to interact with your favorite celebrity. It wouldnt surprise me if the marketing changed to lean that direction, but it was one of the reasons I never made an account there, I didnt see the value. These days its being framed as a free speech zone, there are reasons for and against that notion though as @Sandy Bridge mentions its hardly ever a rational discussion. One could argue this is due to having no repercussion to elevating discussions into arguments where insults tend to fly coupled with no intention to even understand the opposing view before ramming their own. I hold all political leanings to account on that.

Until they can get GPU streaming to be faster than response times on the monitor for an affordable price, that aint happening.
