https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/motherboards/workstation/pro-ws-trx50-sage-wifi/ This was the board I was looking at. The thing that tripped me up was the 2x24 pin main power connectors it listed. All of my previous threadrippers were standard ATX, so digging through the spec...

Question on the power supplies needed for the sTR5 threadripper boards. Is this a new power supply format, or is this just two ATX power supplies. First time starting to dig into the new generation of kit and I'll be honest - first time I've dealt with a CEB form factor. Figured one of you...

I've got a D5 that has been running since 2017 - that has been a solid, trouble free rig. The only thing on the loops are the CPU... though had the zombie apocalypses prices may be over, who knows. Appreciate the input.

Old Thermaltake Pacific is making noise and I see bits of cruft in the fluid. Suspect I either have a cleaning or replacement in my future. What are folks using these days for a high flow, quiet water pump? Will be dealing with about 350W or so, assuming they ever get around to releasing the...

I'll snap up the first (decent) 3080 I can find. When AMD launches - and if they have availability - I'll likely pick up first available in that performance range.

Centos 8 on both. Had not thought of doing that. Figured someone must have some sort of kill switch if water flow stopped.

So I added a 3900x to the mix and the old 1950x just does not crank out enough heat to tax the 480 cooler. Thinking to do 2 CPUs, one pump. Any recommendations on how to power down one box if the other shuts down?

Ah man... The ram I had in my shopping card jumped by $30 too. Wonder how long this blip will last. Seems a shame to leave a chassis empty.

Anyone know if this will do quad channel?

AMD updated their drivers to 19.50 and Centos bumped the build up to 1911. This works: sudo yum update -y (reboot) sudo yum install -y kernel-headers-`uname -r` kernel-devel-`uname -r` sudo dnf -y install --nogpgcheck https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm...

Damn it. Just getting ready to build out the next box. Was there an event (or increased collusion) that is driving up these drive prices?

I tried a bunch of stuff. Using Centos 8, the video works, but steam won't log in/connect. Using Centos 8 Streams, not so much. Steam works with Centos Streams and the video drivers, until a reboot, then the video drivers cause it to bounce back to a login prompt each access.. Looks like the...

On the AMD side of the house for this box. TR4/w a 1905x

I thought I had this licked. Was gifted a small stack of AMD RX580's and was trying to set up AMD's driver. On a stock Centos 8 Streams install on a 1950x. (Box does double duty for work... so yes, I do run the free RHEL OS rather than some versions) sudo yum update -y (reboot) sudo yum...

I'm retarded... yes.
