>>56457247
That's still overkill, pfSense should be able to handle 4M+ connections and over 500MB/s throughput on that many cores. With full UTM level of traffic monitoring.

Unless you're running a huge web server on your next work with thousand of connections an hour, you're dedicating far too many resources to pfSense.


Dedicated pfSense boxes for small/medium businesses use 4 cores at ~2.5GHz and 8GB of RAM and can handle millions of connections at once.

Not that hard to do. Unless its an absolute freak of a machine or using some really old hardware, multiple GPUs, either similar or different cards, is quite easy to run.

Now, for something like SLI, yeah you need at least 2 matching cards in the same system (EX 2x GTX 660). If you have an open third slot, you can stuff a slave GPU in there for any number of purposes.

They never tell you what's wrong with it other than the brand because the brand is the base of the issue. Example being I ordered a Dell with better specs than that Alienware a few days ago, but it cost me $600 less than an Alienware, but they're both made by Dell.

So?

He's using 2 brands. Brands always have different speeds between them. Some are factory over clocked, some aren't. If he's using 2 different brands then it's always going to be running at the speed of the slowest one.

Not to mention than pny probably has worse thermals which will effect the other one.

Yeah, so tempting to jump on one of those fucking furies, but I`ll hold out for vega like the plan was from the get go.

Other one is an EVGA x58 SLI that I modded to support the x5650 I have in plans for a build for my nephew. Got that one for 30$ "as is untested" Those evga boards were going for 50-70$ for a while, wish I would have bought some more of them.

Not just the fact that you somehow don't know shit about PNY (who aren't the only company able to make reference cards [again proving you don't know shit], but they are the only company Nvidia trusts to make Quadros).

>only retards like yourself buy reference

You clearly don't realize that reference cards exist for a reason. Prime example: small form factor builds. Reference cards blow air directly out of the back of the case, instead of blowing it around inside the case. That's really the only good reason (outside of being historically cheaper) in my opinion. Otherwise people get them for aesthetics (if you're into that).

Honestly, how much do you know about hardware? I can understand that you don't know much if it isn't your forte, but don't get all high and mighty when you're spouting nonsense.

PNY does make the reference cards for Nvidia, though. AFAIK, occasionally they'll actually design the reference boards.
>>
>>56460331
I know a pretty decent amount about hardware actually, but I guess I don't know own muc about the makers of it.

I don't trust pnys thermal management, simple as that, that's why I don't like them. And I could care less if they're the trusted maker, chances are quadros could be made better by someone else, but we've already seen I'm ignorant to manufacturers so who cares.
>>
>>56460326
Yeah, it doesn`t have any of the top end bells and whistles like sata 3, but it supports 100% of the lga 1366 lineup, provided your bios is up to date. There`s also the DX58SO2. That has the extra features, but more expensive and far less common.

I reaally dislike the board itself, but the bios is pretty nice, and compatability is bar none the best seeing as it`s actually an intel board. Chipset will be hot as fuck since you likely won`t get one with the included fan.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-DX58SO-LGA-1366-Intel-X58-Bulk-OEM-No-accessories-/351145882028?hash=item51c1ecf1ac:g:Y0MAAOSweW5VFsZq

>I was wondering if you were talking about reference cards, but then you were talking about workstations, so I got even more confused.
Oh sorry if I wasn't clear. What I meant was there is another good reason to buy reference cards. There's also watercooling, almost certainly you will find a waterblock for a reference card.

It's way too big and way too heavy, otherwise I suppose it is fine.

I'm in the market for a new graphics card, which one should I get?
>>
>>56461238
Depends. Do you use both monitors for gaming at the same time?

I'd go for a GTX 1060.
>>
>>56461261
no, just the asus.
>>
>>56461283
Okay then. I'd still recommend a GTX 1060 (3GB variant).
>>
>>56459977
>A 20$ gt240 is overkill for a second monitor. I did try it, though. Ran into lots of issues because nvidia and amd don`t mix well.
well duh, mixing card brands does tend to not work.
>>
>>56461682
Well, to be fair. It would have ran fine if the nvidia card didn`t keep trying to be the primary card like a little shit.

At first I though about replacing that i3 but its been working well so far, no bottleneck or whatsoever so it can stay for a while. On the other hand the mobo is absolutely shit, I will have a gigabyte mobo replaced it soon
Also gotta thanks MSI for making a good half-height card so I can fit it into the thin case. Too bad there's no half-height variants of the more recent line-up.
Overall for 720p gaming this just works, I wouldnt ask for more

Nice ultrawide. If you do any gaming just upgrade that graphics card.

7/10, small SSD, locked CPU, overjewed 1080

>>56459932
You need a monitor to go with that purchase. The 1080 is a retarded purchase. Just get a single 1070 and wait for Volta or beyond

Why replace the mobo?

Not consume 9000 watts under load :^). Doesn't change the fact that you are a pleb.

:^) 522W at the wall for gaming workloads and maybe a bit less for full CPU use, and thats for everything plugged into my power strip (PC, dual monitors, onkyo 7.1 system). 350W for light use. The thing isn't as much of a monstrosity than it's made out to be.

Probably is, but it's not worth upgrading until you get a DDR4 platform

1. The PCIe x1 slot is right next to one of the PCIe x16 and that gtx750ti of mine is a 2-slot card which completely blocks the x1. I need that x1 slot to install a PCIe-to-usb-3.0 card. The other x16 is way too close to PSU to fit the 750ti
2. It's soundchip manages to be worse than my no-brand chinese made phone's. I am not going to buy a whole $100 DAC/AMP because I only use a $100 IEM, not worth it.
>>
>>56462509
Can you give me more info so I can learn?
>>
>>56462575
yeah OEM boards are fucking garbage, I had an HP one for a couple years with a q6600. wasnt allowed to overclock so it bottlenecked my gpu quite a bit in planetside 2 and bf3.

>>56462575
Why not get a right angle riser card if you're so attached?

>>56462499
yes, it is, especially compared to non-pleb modern Xeons. :^)
>>
>>56462575
Not sure if that's a prebuilt, but did you check the power connectors from your PSU to see if they will work with new mobo? Hopefully your i3 will run cooler after you reseat the heatsink, too

>>
>>56462634
Yeah it's a OPtiplex 790 DT I got for cheap. Everything was working fine so it's a waste to let it be thrown away.
I checked and it seems the gigabyte mobo will work with the psu. Its only a 250W psu though.

>>56462607
The case is thin and space is tight inside, I doubt an angle riser will help much. Also considering my 2nd reason, I am better off with a new mobo
>>
>>56462398

Oh yeah, the monitor was also free.

Pic related, but not all games will be as RAM dependent

What should I go for a graphics card? Usually just play csgo, have been getting a lot of frame stutter on 1080p black bars even with 300 fps. Ideally I'd like something cheapish.

Thanks for your help. Now I gotta figure out how to afford a ram upgrade.

Not necessarily, you're more likely GPU limited. He's getting almost 60FPS even with slow RAM. Just upgrade to a DDR4 platform when you have money or performance NEEDS instead of swapping DDR3 for DDR3.
>>
>>56464839
But anon, I was getting better FPS with my setup (though not everything was on Ultra: I hate DoF, Bloom and HBAO)

the entire world knows this is wrong, you fucked up your benchmark or you have some weird bottlenecking. RAM simply does not affect gaming to the degree shown by your "results"

How the fuck do you not know this? You bought it with your own eyes.

I installed a new card, but the drivers weren't installing. As soon as the drivers installed correctly, the gpu showed up in speccy.
>>
>>56465964
Of course I know my fucking manufacturer. Why doesn't speccy though? On all the pictures here it says (EVGA) or (MSI) or another brand after the gpu model.
