motk commented on Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB Graphics Card $669 + Delivery @ MSY, PCByte and Umart
Video cards are still insanely overpriced, just absurdly so.

motk posted a forum topic KVM Monitor Reccomendations?
Can anybody reccomend a montior that's pretty much a S2721DGF or similar with built-in KVM? USB-C power would be nice but not vital.

Late to this, but look at the site generally the exchange rate changes recently have just crashed any 'bargains' that might be had for a…

The price is a keen driver though. I haven't seen a decent B550 with wifi for a while.

Still looking for a decent am4 matx wifi board.

Cool, now just need a Ryzen 7600 at < $300

It's not the sturdiness or otherwise that's important here. If it has a usb-c port at the back it probably also has a proper header on the…

Basic rule of thumb - if the IO panel doesn't have usb-c, but does have d-sub or vga or ps2 ports, it's junk.

Thanks for the replies - the website is a bit sparse on detail, like manuals or similar.

I guess if the raid card can support JBOD that'd work.

motk commented on H04rd3 NAS Case $315 ($125 off) @ Content Inceptions
I do like the look of this, but I'd like to see a manual or more detailed specs. Is a RAID card necessary? Is it possible to use plain SATA…

Extremely good faith

Or they're complicit in this.

Jog on, dude.

Just wondering if you were born in 1988 champ

You've got to be kidding, we're doing far-right propaganda now? Edit: Just look at the upvotes, a huge pile on within minutes, this is…

Ah, my mistake. Apols.

Where are the 2.5Gbe deals?

Probably doing a scrub. Completely normal and in fact desired.

Really? Doing that on custom hardware seems pretty painful, I'd rather just get a decent nuc and a usb-c disk array

Unless you're using zfs or running VMs, not a lot tbh.

Whoops, you're right!

Infinitely better than a GT 1030, but you might as well save up another hundred bucks and get a 6600. For Granny's computer only, at least…

In terms of performance-per-watt, sure. In terms of actual draw at the plug, no.

It difficult and expensive to find a case with hot-swap caddies and a suitable backplane though.

Basically out-of-band management. Think built-in kvm.
