Got the latest Windows 10 build running on my HP Stream 7. Atom Z3735G and 1GB of RAM STRONG
I just had a pretty decent experience with Apple support.
is this rare?
oh sweet jesus

Someone made a driver for XP that lets the 32bit version read up to 128GB of RAM
time to run a billion IE6 windows at the same time
The biggest question here is why is this a thing?
i wonder if Pentium is running this patch
i actually wonder how he’s doing
VEGA Graphics included? I'm liking this very much.
Yes but bear in mind it's a very low config. You won't be getting a lot out of it.
It enables PAE. It was how you used more than 4gb back before 64 bit OS's. It's always been available in the server editions of Windows but MS disables it in the workstation versions for some reason.
Running i5 3570k at close to 4.4ghz on a Hyper TX3 for 2-3 years now. I probably have really bad IHS thermal paste too, as the temps shoot up rapidly to 80-90C and stay there while gaming.

This is 1min of Prime95, it is almost at 100C max by now a few minutes later... The voltages are a bit high for me, but I probably lost the silicon lottery and it started crashing at lower voltages, maybe due to shitty ram.
The lower vcore under load thing is an thing that needs LLC, but crashing in light loads is usually a sign of needing less LLC and more vcore.
It honestly just looks like you just need a touch more voltage to stabilize.
I think leaving LLC at auto might've been a bad idea cause it looks like it gets set at an even higher level by default judging by those load voltages.
I'm now running 44 multiplier at 1.165V static (this is basically the stock boost voltage on my mobo) + medium LLC and it's looking really good. Only ~10mV droop under load, seems perfectly stable so far, I'm hitting lower peak voltage than before and also running several degrees cooler. Looks like static is the way to go. I'd much prefer it if dynamic voltage let you set a custom curve for every multiplier separately rather than just a single global offset on whatever your mobo thinks are good voltages, as it is right now it forces you to push too much voltage at some points while it gets too low at others.
If it goes on like this, it seems like I'll easily be able to push a couple multipliers higher.
We occasionally chat on Steam. He seems to be doing well last I spoke to him.
The Switchable Graphics Vulkan experience (without battery drain):
-> Install nvidia drivers, install bbswitch
-> Write a script to bbswitch on your GPU, detect where your kernel mods are and insmod them
-> Setup the Xorg config files
-> Write a script to setup the xinit command lines and start it
-> Write a Xorg init script to setup a very basic environment and a bash window so xorg doesn't die because nothing is running
(The above are all descript in nvidia-xrun, but with some changes in order to avoid pitfalls of the NVidia driver, such as changing pid and doing insmod instead of modprobe since nvidia-prime will alias your modules to 'off' and fuck you in the ass)
-> Write a script to intercept steam envvars and launch commands:
~/steam_setup.sh:
#!/bin/sh
export > ~/steam_env.sh
echo $* > ~/steam_cmd.sh
-> Write a script to sanitize the variables and launch the game:
~/steam_run.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo "" > ~/steam_env_sane.sh

chmod +x ~/steam_env_sane.sh ~/steam_cmd.sh

. ~/steam_cmd.sh
-> Setup your game so it launches the script instead of itself, by changing the launch options to:
[code]~/steam_setup.sh "%command%"[/code]
-> Launch the game, switch to a new tty, login and run:
[code]./nvidia_xrun ./steam_run.sh[/code]
Now Enjoy your Game! Cmon guys it's the Year of Linux Desktop, everything is well documented and you'll never need to use the terminal in your life, at worst just a copy and paste amirite
Whaddaya know, I can actually score some dank Cinebench runs at 4.7GHz:
https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/209687/1ffb13c4-8192-475d-924e-62d1dfb33be5/47_cinebench.png
That's about as far as I'm willing to push my system, didn't even bother increasing the voltage trying to get it to boot at 4.8.
Realistically, 4.5GHz at 1.21V seems like the sweet spot for my budget Z77 mobo and a Hyper 212 evo. Once I go past that, the voltage requirements rise rapidly, and so do the temps. 4.6 wasn't fully stable even at 1.25V, and at that point the VRM seems to get very inefficient and starts drawing upwards of 100W under load. The couple % performance increase just ain't worth all that extra heat trying to get it stable. All in all I'm pretty satisfied with 4.5, it's more than I expected.
I've been considering trying to push this R5 1600 past 4.0 but it's stable and cool as is, not sure if the .1 or .2 extra will be worth the increase in temps.

Part of a balanced breakfast
I spilled soup on my numpad because I'm dumb.
CAn you Alt+Shift+Numlock from setup?
of course not, there's a superior alternative

I'll bite. Now I'm waiting for people to rip me a new one. Switchable Graphics isn't at all an user friendly experience. · ..
So to build this 5.25" external box I went to the hardware store and got some Aluminum sheet, but upon bringing it home I realize it's just too thin to be useful so I think I'll just do it out of wood, though I may try covering it in the aluminum sheet to see how it looks. Been making some mockups of the size with some cardboard. I think for now I'll make a double-5.25" And in the future if I can properly document the creation I could make larger ones. Since this is going to be MiniSAS, the cables and adapters for internal to external can be expensive unfortunately, but it does give me full speed. I could probably even integrate an internal SAS expander for using only two cables for driving many future drives easily.
Still debating on the Meanwell PSU or going with the SFX PSU.
These talks of PSU quality and whatnot made me want to try making a bench PSU with controllable 5v and 12v rails and see where different parts of the computer start giving up.
I have an old PSU somewhere where I modded it to give out around14V, but had to bypass the safety switches in it. Would be a fun experiment.
Out waterheater popped a leak out of one of the elements today.
Who would have thought a unit 15 years out of warranty and never flushed would have issues.
that desktop nipple keyboard 🤤
Damn, it's even tenkeyless. Just my taste.
If somebody put out a TKL keyboard with the TrackPoint clit and buttons as well as Cherry MX switches I'd buy it.
...or maybe I wouldn't because my Ducky TKL with Browns serves me just fine already and it was more expensive than I'm entirely comfortable with.
That would be absolutely fucking nasty, I need one right now and I don't even like buckling spring that much.
Anyone know why OBS is constantly telling me that the encoder is overloaded on NVENC even though the game I’m playing is running fine and there’s shitloads of ram free?
GTX 770, Xeon E3-1230v3, 16GB RAM. Basically within 1 minute of starting the recording it starts to tell me the encoder is overloading and the recording becomes single digit FPS.
clearly you need water cooling for it to get any higher

You need to be able to run the game and run the codec.
the 770 is piss weak and by hardware it doesn’t support much
kepler wasn’t made for it
Has anyone messed around with using GPU passthrough to do Windows gaming on a Linux machine?
Is setting up a Windows HTPC/backup gaming rig in a VM using passthrough on my Linux based NAS a good idea or an over-engineered crazy one?
Lots of people in the linux thread that have done so.
