    Hardware recommendations for gaming VMs

    Hah. Tried that route before, was denied. Server room is right out for me.

    Hardware recommendations for gaming VMs

    Masters thesis on big data. It's why aws and azure are critical, because I can get rid of much of my existing hardware, but I need a certain minimum amount of on premises perf and RAM.

    Hardware recommendations for gaming VMs

    Going back to dual Xeons puts me in the same spot. If it was simply something that could be solved with $$$, I'd buy retail Xeons. Money's not really an issue, sound is a big one followed by heat.

    Hardware recommendations for gaming VMs

    Perf hit is only 1%-3% in worst case scenarios in testing on raw hardware vs. virtualized for my use cases. Should be largely negligible. Noted on the 6700ks. It's a big pro on the 6700k route that the hardware would be near silent to silent on the server side. Gonna have to read up more on the...

    Hardware recommendations for gaming VMs

    Hi, I should probably explain my current configuration before asking for advice. Current, racked: Dual Xeon E5-2690s, 256gb RAM, ZFS 4TB SSD storage/ZFS 32TB spinning rust. Runs Proxmox for 2x virtualized gaming machines (6 cores allocated), ZFS raid arrays, etc. ZFS is allocated 92GB of RAM...

    Performance penalty of CPU limited algorithms in a VM

    If you are using a type 2 hypervisor like VMWare Player, it is going to be incredibly slow in the circumstances you describe under certain conditions no question. A type 1 hypervisor with modern hardware can see a peformance penalty in the single digits, but a type 2 can wreck havoc with...

    Video Card recommendation

    Ugh, that sucks. I think I have to go nVidia this generation if I want two DL-DVI ports.

    Video Card recommendation

    It's cheaper to go with a 7970 than a 7950 and an active minidisplayport.

    Video Card recommendation

    Hey guys! After the awesome router recommendation from a month or so ago, I decided to ask here for a video card recommendation. Normally, I'd just order straight off of the 'egg, but... I have to have two dual-link DVI ports. The only 7950's I've found with 2x DVI the 'egg has listed as 1x...

    Router

    Dear AT, I've been out of the network game for years. What I'm looking for is simple however. I want the best router with the following criteria: Sub-$200 Dual USB ports (Pref 3.0) with Samba-or-similar sharing - This is a big one. If I can find a router that can do this at 100 MB/sec...

    Unarmed black 17 year old shot by Neighborhood watch captain in gated community...

    Yeah, I can see that I've wasted my time. Last time I'm transcribing anything... Lol indeed. Ideological zealots, on either side, suck.

    Unarmed black 17 year old shot by Neighborhood watch captain in gated community...

    This is incorrect, there is no way to prove murder 1 even assuming GZ was on top and a lot of other factors. Murder 1 in Florida requires premeditation. GZ had zero chance for premeditation, unless you are seriously trying to claim GZ had an opportunity to plot for weeks in advance to jump out...

    Unarmed black 17 year old shot by Neighborhood watch captain in gated community...

    Listen to the rest of the interview, it's all covered. The witness explicitly states that Zimmerman was definitely on top, and yes, this applies to before the shot.

    Unarmed black 17 year old shot by Neighborhood watch captain in gated community...

    No, the interviewer and witness both explicitly said that she saw them before the shot. Seriously, I even made a fucking transcription of the interview in this thread, and you people still refuse to realize this. The witness also explicitly states she saw Zimmerman on top before the shot. I...

    Unarmed black 17 year old shot by Neighborhood watch captain in gated community...

    Witness "First we heard a howling sound, then we heard a help sound..." "Could you say who was saying help or not?" "No, I couldn't" ... "Second time I looked, um, I looked so many times outside so I don't know which time is which, but the first I remember it was too dark, then a guy was on...
