Bump, anyone have a 2990WX?

Such a good board, I had a P5Q pro turbo and absolutely loved it. Would have totally bought the deluxe if I had the money for it at the time.

Was recently burned pretty badly by vmware and their licensing. 7K gone and it would have cost an extra 8K to "fix" according to them. We had CDW as our reseller, they seem to have single CPU licenses avail for approx ~$1040. I chose to switch hypervisors, im not sure if this is possible in your...

Got the board! I wasnt sure if I would find one, they dont seem to be too common.

Bizzump.

Bamp

Bump

Morning bump.

I wouldnt be opposed to a 3970X as I am looking to move from 16C/32T up to 32C/64T, but the cost is more important than maximum performance, and I would need a board with 4 functionally usable PCIe X16 lanes for the 4 GPUs I run. The cost of a 3rd gen board with the appropriate PCIe config costs...

Hello, putting some feelers out there to see if anybody has a couple parts ive been looking for. I am hoping to find a good deal on a Threadripper 2990WX and this board: https://www.newegg.com/asrock-fatal1ty-x399-professional-gaming/p/N82E16813157784R Im not really in any particular rush...

Wow thats crazy, I just started watching the video and came here to see if anyone else posted it yet. This is kind of crazy to me.......I really like EVGA cards, and I specifically like their ACX coolers as far as OEM GPU coolers are concerned. Reminds me of when XFX did the same thing to nvidia...

Thanks for the advice, ill be waiting for a bit before I make any purchases for a new PSU. I dont even really need a new one, my current one is great, I just got bit by the upgrade bug is all :D

Hello, I am wondering if anyone has heard any news on whether or not EVGA is planning on releasing a new version of this PSU: https://www.newegg.com/evga-220-t2-1600-x1-1600w/p/N82E16817438041 EVGA has a Gold/Platinum version of the G2/P2 line that they upgraded into the G+/P+, I havent been...

You can buy an IDE to SATA adapter from ebay and then use any drive you want, ive got an SSD in one of mine. It doesnt really help, and I swear some games take longer to load, though 4 play halo multiplayer is noticeably faster, oddly. You can pick up decent ones on ebay for $80ish + shipping...

Yes, because raising prices to objectively wrong levels is sure to curb demand....................... this comment aged like an open can of sardines :(

Just in case you dont have any luck here, you might want to try aliexpress, ive been in a similar situation looking for stock coolers before...

Definitely, you could sell the 1080Ti and buy a 1050ti and still have enough power to play some regular games too. Nintendo and playstation seem to have really stable emulators. I use PCSX/PCSX2 for playstation, and Dolphin/Project64 for nintendo.

Very true, though if push came to shove I have successfully modified the drivers in the past to work with windows 10 and we had no issues at all. though that might have been for a 3rd gen CPU, I forget. Do you have buddies that come over to game? Maybe keep the machine setup as a...

*ACKSHUALLY* You used to be able to right click the networking icon in the system tray, and easily access network and sharing center (In versions before W10), M$ removed that feature from 10 and now you would either need to go through the control panel, or the new network settings application...

What are your use cases? Is this just for home/personal stuff? How many VMs total are you planning on running? How important is performance vs cost for you? Why does your server need a GPU? Depending on the answers to the above questions, you could save a couple grand and go with an LGA2011...

Yes the board was ran outside the case, ive since been able to get the DOA board returned, and found a nice replacement for it (I still have the original one that I broke) Everything is running great now that I didnt try to install it like an ogre :p

Cool, so this is only available through the cockstar launcher AND they already removed the original games from steam? Cant wait to not buy this once its released............

Some people claim pot smoke enhances the computing experience, others just get paranoid............

Now thats a price! I would buy this in a heartbeat if I didnt already have a 1950X, I need a 2990WX for the additional cores :/

Ill be honest and say I think we have different views on new vs used. A car with 40K miles is new to me, I think the lowest mileage car i have ever owned was 120K, and if by "certified pre-owned" you mean you went to a stealership to buy them, thats an additional cost I wont pay either. I only...

Because you can buy another car with a working transmission for less than the $6000 it would have cost for whatever model car you have. Stop buying expensive cars, and you wont have expensive repair bills.

Bump, trying to buy a 2990WX!

Yes, but.... I had it explained to me once and I can sort of see where she was coming from. Some people dont understand the concept of a "system", where you need to follow a series of "logical" steps in order to achieve a result. This concept isnt limited to just computers either, its why IT...

My point was that driving cars with all the electronic BS just makes it less enjoyable to drive, things like traction control can cut power to the engine when you arent anticipating it and you can wind up in some sketchy situations. You cant electrically limit my throttle to 20% when its a...

Excellent! So you got a better board and your DPC latency issues are gone, thats a good ending to this whole ordeal.

Right, but they dont: "It's when your throttle is physically connected to your foot and not the internet." Your throttle body is physically connected via cable to your gas pedal, you dont need to calibrate the pedal to know 0% through 100%, and you can prove that youre getting 100% throttle...

Thats actually not correct. Ever driven a car that has 'boost by gear"? Or a car that thinks brake vectoring is somehow a replacment for a real LSD?

Its certainly not the same. I like that, and agree. I do prefer hydraulic clutch to cables though, I always snap cable clutches (cries in foxbody mustang)

Which part of the country are you from? I got my corolla for $1900, and there seems to be a lot of good cars in the $2000 - $5000 range here in NH. I dont buy trucks though (other people can, and ill use theirs :D), 2016 tacomas seem to go for around 20 - 25K with low miles and good options.

I was just reading this today: https://www.reuters.com/technology/tsmc-says-construction-has-started-arizona-chip-factory-2021-06-01/ Do people even buy new cars? Seems like a giant waste of money to me. Honest question, is it weird that i refuse to purchase a car that doesnt have a cable...

Ive got well over a hundred of these things, no screens have cracked yet (I assume apple would just tell me im using them wrong anyway), but all of them have scuffs on the top cover from being carried with a charger on top of it. Even if youre super careful, the rubber they use on the charging...

Yes I see that now, I was looking at the newegg page (the corsair one seems to be broken in waterfox) In that case, it is indeed a fine warranty period.

I wish I could disagree with this thread, but ive worked in public schools since 2015........ Ive also had the same flip phone since 09, no intention of downgrading to those useless bricks everyone seems to love so much. Its almost like this outcome was easily predictable!

It seems to only be a 5 year warranty, thats not good even for a unit half its price, let alone $600.

How stable is the power at your house? Would it be possible to bring your monitor/computer/peripherals over to a freinds house and try it there? Im still thinking about the rest of the stuff you said, but wanted to throw this out there first as its what popped into my head first.
