    Question PCIe network card with both Wifi and LAN (Ethernet)?

    Thank you guys for all your help! Looks like the most sensible option would be just replacing mobo. I didn't realize that there are no such cards at all. Weird for me still :) It's a bit difficult to explain it shortly, as this is PC for specific purposes. Machine is accessible by WiFi running...

    Question PCIe network card with both Wifi and LAN (Ethernet)?

    Well, I found this analogy utterly stupid. IMHO better one would be "Why can't I buy a sports car that's also a roadster?" Please englihten me if I'm wrong? And WHY I'm wrong? Thank you :)

    Question PCIe network card with both Wifi and LAN (Ethernet)?

    Hi. I'm looking for a network card with both WiFi and LAN (RJ45/Enthernet) support. For PCIe slot connector. I literally can't find a single one. I need both WiFi and LAN connection. Have internal WiFi card for PCIe and LAN port on my mobo. But LAN on my mobo died recently. I have only one...

    Question [I7-10700K] Will switching to liquid cooling result in noticeable temperature drop?

    First I'd like to thank both of you for your reply. Here's the Advanced Tuning tab of IXTU. I hope it's what you've asked for. These are my current settings at 5.0 GHz all-core, 1.275V. Rig is stable, temps are generally below 60C for standard usage, but could easily jump up to 90C. Yes, I'm...

    Question [I7-10700K] Will switching to liquid cooling result in noticeable temperature drop?

    Hi all. I'm running 10700K with air cooler from SPC - Grandis 3. Good, large, quiet fan cooler. But during standard operation my CPU has about 50-60 Celsius degrees, gaming results in 75-80 C (peaks up to 85, but rarely), benchmarking (not stress test, just pure benchmark) in Intel XTU gives me...

    Question Can Xonar DX work without external power supply?

    I've found many complaints about these particular cards and its' socket. Loose pins, no contact, breaking plastic etc. Mine looks OK though. I did it, checking visible parts of socket (pins). Looks good, but I don't know about solder joints cracks inside the PCB. But the card works properly -...

    Question Can Xonar DX work without external power supply?

    Hi all. I've got one simple question: Can Asus Xonar DX work without additional power input? Being powered by PCI-Ex only? The issue that bothers me in details is that I have Xonar DX in my rig. Properly installed with external power connector plugged in. The card works good - I use it in...

    Question Replace Xonar D1 with PCI-E equivalent - Xonar DX, AE, something else?

    So I have E10K plugged in and tested for two days, I can share some thoughts as requested. Please note - I'm not audiophile (not even close) and I can't compare with D1 directly. Last time I used D1 was about three weeks ago. Let's get to the point: 1. E10K sound is softer. I don't mean...

    Question Replace Xonar D1 with PCI-E equivalent - Xonar DX, AE, something else?

    Schiit products are hard to find in my country, so I'll need to buy it online on Amazon or something. I don't want to make a blind shot and spend 200 bucks for these devices at the moment. So I've ordered Fiio E10K in my local shop. I'll take it home, plug to my rig and test sound quality. I can...

    Question Replace Xonar D1 with PCI-E equivalent - Xonar DX, AE, something else?

    @Insert_Nickname, @Muadib Well, I never seriously considered external DACs and amps - pure lack of knowledge on my side. Seems worthy to take a look and read something about it. Are there any reasonable options within 100$ range or should I prepare more money? I've seen for example Schiit...

    Question Replace Xonar D1 with PCI-E equivalent - Xonar DX, AE, something else?

    Well, I can't tell anything about quality of Xonar SE. If I can, I wouldn't ask, right? :) So I'm curious too about this one.

    Question Replace Xonar D1 with PCI-E equivalent - Xonar DX, AE, something else?

    Hi. I've checked the site, but it's not what I'm looking for. I prefer internal sound cards, as Xonar D1/DX. Thank you for your suggestion though.

    Question Replace Xonar D1 with PCI-E equivalent - Xonar DX, AE, something else?

    Hi all. I'm looking for advice. Recently changed mobo for a nem one without PCI slot. So my Xonar D1 is not usable anymore. I was perfectly satisfied with its sound quality. As mobo sound card is really poor (Realtek ALS1200), I'm currently looking for a replacement with PCI-E slot. I consider...
