Dell, Razer, Asus, MSI, HP, Lenovo, all have their direct sites you can order from, you can also use subsidiaries like Amazon Newegg B&H etc., or brick and mortar walk-ins like BestBuy but selection there will be limited,

i paid close to $4500 for my Precision 7770 with 12950HX, 3080Ti 16GB, 16GB SoDIMM ram, 256GB M.2, and 4k 120Hz, that's a very basic configuration maybe a month old by now (retail price for the unit is over $9k and also includes a 5 year manufacture bumper to bumper coverage),

*Official Benchmark Thread* - Post it here or it didn't happen :D
MyPC8MyBrain replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
clean both surface sides with 70% alcohol and let it evaporate, apply a layer of electrical tape as a protective layer on the cpu/dgpu silicon all around the die as close as you can, apply LM TIM on cpu/dgpu and the copper side on the heat pipe, and finally use the soft one side adhesive weather strip to create a protection wall around the cpu/dgpu right on the electrical tape application as shown below and above (cut it to fit your space its a bit wide, note i was lazy and didn't apply the electrical tape layer in these early images) -

it really depends on how hard core you want to go, i would get a good set of pads in the right thickness you need (I wouldnt mess with phase change paste for pads in a laptop chassis), also id grab both Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut & cryonaut (its good to have both on hand, make sure you get a decent amount enough for few applications), use cryonaut on cpu and Conductonaut on your dgpu (if you want to go hard core go cryonaut on both cpu and dgpu), a more conservative approach is to apply Conductonaut on both cpu and dgpu, for a proper LM TIM application you want both these on hand too https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RZYY2T1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CSGEFU are you able to ballpark performance percentage you gained after the recent set of tweaks haul? -

thank you for the update, glad to know you finally cracked your sought after 9k score 👍 once you get your re-paste and pads redone you could prob see 5-10% further increase, beside that there's more you can do but it sounds like your a happy camper atm, -

@ryan did you ever deploy the few tweaks posted earlier? -
sure you can you will need to either make the bridge yourself or get a splitter like this https://www.newegg.com/battleborn-131106131282/p/35Y-000B-00009?Item=9SIA85V3DG9612 as long as components don't draw power from both PSUs simultaneously you should be fine,

you should be able to use two power supplies, server cases are prebuilt with two power supplies, you mainly need a board supporting two power supplies less concern about the case itself, some consumer cases also have space, it will come down again to your board, for manual integration investigate how miners daisey chain their power,

i think the 4 fans in the back should provide some basic airflow until you decide to be nicer to your friends there 😉 -

MyPC8MyBrain replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
what kind of a friend are you letting your only friends sit on the floor? 😮 i bet they will feel way more refreshed if they were raised with decent airflow below too 😉 in a pinch 4 matchboxes will do the trick even bottle caps will do more then having the board on the table, -
one of our customers runs 2 x 3090, id imagine that physically 2 x 4090 can fit, but... second unit bus/lane speed, and power supply for 2 x 4090 may pose an issue,

i like that 😉 no doubt! i have been using linux well over 30 years through its evolutions and flavors surging over time, i have most respect for linux and linux users, 100% the issues remains allot of users just don't know or its not intuitive for them to unleash the platforms full potential, -

@Reciever linux is not fun on a laptop its also not fun for desktops, it can be made tolerable but that doesn't make it user friendly, its designed to be a server not a personal station (unless you like to inflict pain on yourself), if you need to hone your Linux skills just side load any Linux flavor you like with WSL https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install its essentially windows native hypervisor you can run any systems you like side by side with windows as if it was a virtual container but its not a virtual container its just the ease of deployment and manageability is similar! it has full standalone dedicated hardware access not shared, while running side by side with windows, -

@ryan you are derailing the thread to network and security topics, next post better be a bench with +9k or they will change the topic title 😅 -

MyPC8MyBrain replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
i am aware, that is "same broadcast domain" as mentioned above 😉 for that to happen you had to execute malware locally first! (that packet cannot traverse anywhere beyond your logical broadcast domain which is essentially your local network wire connected to the same physical switch, unless you're physically in a hostile environment none of this matters when you're home behind your routers firewall and a nat environment) -
*Official Benchmark Thread* - Post it here or it didn't happen :D
MyPC8MyBrain replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
that can only happen if one compromises the access point, physical wire, or if one is on the same broadcast domain of its victim! someone attacking or distributing malware on the same broadcast domain can be located in minutes, since TAZ days there's been allot of progress, data providers cannot afford to be hacked now days, firmware updated to address many of these holes, its very hard now days to find a new tcpip exploits that are untraceable or do not have a pre-recorded signature pattern, -

MyPC8MyBrain replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
that is correct expose no service there will be no open ends to attack, the rest is common sense just like when someone catches something you don't go near him until he is cured, you know better today not to repeat these steps, im sure you had your firewall and defender on when you got infected before regardless, downloading something or executing infected exe with malware on your own is not hacking, that's just not smart putting it politely, its ok to make small mistakes, we learn and improve from them every day, its like two sides of a coin. -

MyPC8MyBrain replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
@ryan i promise! when you are done applying the tweaks and achieve your desired +9k score if you are still interested i will teach you how to render any attack method assuming worst case scenario where the attacker is connected directly with a crossed network cable from your laptop directly to his with zero obstructions with your firewall turned off and defender disabled, -

excuse me... I'm roflmao not going off on this thread with regards to security, i did unleash my point of view here if a real hacker wanted to hack your pc he would despite whatever guards you think you have, it costs time and money and unless you're a high profile person of interest no one has any interest! make sure you have a backup and don't worry about things you shouldn't worry about 😉 -

MyPC8MyBrain replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
put "disable" and expose power plan and all other disable tweaks all in one .reg file and import then reboot, there is also one command prompt to issue as well to restore ultimate power plan, order doesn't matter, -

MyPC8MyBrain replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
huh... it's as fast as it takes you to copy and paste these snippets to a .reg file save then right click to select import, if you don't like something you can undo with the re-enable reg i also included, ooh and a quick reboot to make sure everything takes after you're done importing, how you want to get into deep tunning and tweaking if you cant muster this little challenge? 😄 (get used to it yesterday and on your own free time 😛)
