Abundance of System Ram. What to do with it?
Reciever replied to Reciever's topic in Desktop Hardware
My daily driver system only has 2x dimm slots and sadly my cpu doesn't support ecc ram. I don't have any system that I am aware of that I can install them to. Used to have a 5820x precision but I gave it away -

Most people dont sit on new coins, they transfer it into ETH or Bitcoin. I'll be passing Qubic mining, CPU mining seems like a pain. I mine Raven from time to time but usually during the Winter to warm up the house. -
Yeah, its a compromise at this form factor with OEM's. My own x570 board only has 2 NVME's and 2 DIMM's for ITX

Took me a moment but it looks to be the Dell Precision Compact workstation. Not sure how long they've been making this SKU so prices are likely still to be high, but like most enterprise hardware the value tends to drop off like a rock after their service period. https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/desktop-computers/precision-3260-compact/spd/precision-3260-workstation

I looked at the Samsung offering first but they were much more expensive, almost settled on the SN850x but the GM7000 was 25-30 USD cheaper for near same level of performance. At that level of performance I doubt I will be able to perceive a difference relatively speaking. I have been dabbling with ImageUSB to provision multiple drives (each with multiple partitions) so I finally had a use case where I needed a really fast drive to host the data that it pulls from. Up to this point I still didnt really see much merit to NVME (for my use case), of course now I want to make a Windows installation via RAMdisk as an interesting project (no idea how though). -

So I got that tower M.2 heatsink installed in my PC on an Acer GM7000 2TB PCIE4 drive (that I have my OS on). Acer doesnt make it in-house, its one of those OEM supplied but branded Acer products, BINIX iirc? Im not running anything particularly intensive (at all) but I just had to have it on. Thus far havent seen temps above 32c Now I want to get the Sonnet 4x10Gbps USB C pcie adapter or perhaps the GV-Titan TB3 card from Gigabyte. That might actually be better since it would be actively powered by the PSU. Wont be until next month or so. -
4x32GB DDR4 3200Mhz ECC 20+16GB 1333/1866 ECC 200+GB DDR4 sodimm unbuffered Anything interesting I can use these for? Looked to see if I could build a RAMdisk but that seems to have gone extinct with DDR2 Honestly if I were better at electrical engineering / PCB related stuff what I would love to build would be the following. A USB4 enclosure that can house an NVME drive that would clone to a 128GB RAMdisk that then reports (and behaves) as a (bootable) Mass Storage Device to a PC. My work does a lot of Windows deployment type stuff so it would interesting (to me, at least) to see how long a deployment would take when the PC and its own storage are the only limiting factors. The NVME holds the data that we want to deploy (non-volatile) and clones to the RAMdisk (volatile), Naturally would need its own power source as well. I dunno, I just have an abundance of random stuff and am trying to think of an interesting use case for it. You guys got any ideas?

Oh that must be a sweet little box there! @Snowleopard Perhaps in the future you might come across the micro form factor with dedicated pcie come down in price (Dell sells them now as "precisions") but they dont have HX processors. That Minis Forum PC looks pretty sweet though

This intrigues me greatly, I have been on the fence about getting an RTX 3080 for my Clevo since it doesnt have external power

Its an unfortunate bi-product of the current times. Spend more time dealing with those with the loudest wailing instead of addressing probable constructive criticisms. -
I like products that have modularity in mind. While you do have to mod it a bit, thats a fairly small compromise for what you get in return. Thanks for sharing!

Do you have a programmer? Maybe needs a different vbios? Tricky part would be what to cross flash, I dont know of another MXM 6600 XT to even suggest...

Yes I have recently come across that method as well. For my personal use case it would be my route to go as well but for work I stick with the above as I unfortunately cant trust people to remember what the PW they set on customer systems which creates more work for me. 270 was right about the price I chose to take the dive for my own 5800X3D, still serving me well as my DD though I would imagine that a 5600X3D would be pretty similar in most games, production couldnt say though, I dont dabble in that on my own time. -

During the OOBE setup you should be able to to open CMD (Shift+F10 / Shift+Fn+F10) and run OOBE /BYPASSNRO. This will allow local user account creation, or at least it still works for me as some state it doesnt work. -
Are you trying to run via SG or PEG mode?

Looking forward to your results!

I have been loosely following the thread but have been busy with work and professional development. Built up a couple of esxi hosts, researching a good product to use for a homelab switch. Using a 2960x for now but plan to buy the brocade icx6610-24 (or 48, based on price) started getting a few different vm templates setup so I can spin up a server quickly and expect to start training in server 2019/2022 and hybrid azure. Have a few 10Gbps cards now as well. Also planning to try my hand at moonlight / sunshine on the 10850k platform. Going to need more ram for it as it's still using the 16GB and sadly ecc doesn't work with the platform. Some of the guys in IT have been training recently so I'm hoping to get in that momentum as well. Im still reading much of what is posted as well as moderating. Which reminds me some posts recently were removed due to having no relation (even loosely) to this thread. The repeat offenders know who they are. -
There have been wars started over catalysts that later turned out to be false. With that precedent which was carried out in the stone age by relative comparison today then it should be fairly concerning what is to come.

So recently have been looking around for a strong product in the 8-9" arena (Android tablet) and wow has the market vanished in the middle. The Alldocube tablet looked promising mostly because of its price/performance offering is pretty strong but 1 speaker kind of kills it for me personally, I mostly use my tablet for streaming media. I have been using the MediaPad M3 for maybe 4-5 years now and its been great for what I use it for but the battery is starting to show its age. It looks like the Y700 2023 is the new price/performance king in the 8" tablet form factor. Has anyone here had any experience with one or perhaps any thoughts on this model? https://www.giztop.com/lenovo-legion-y700-2023.html

As mentioned earlier on this page, the manipulation of information as well as its dissemination is a simple but chief concern in relation to AI.

Very much this, has also been my chief concern relating to this topic.
