    Intel C610, RAID and TRIM

    The version of the OROM is 4.0.something - looks like it's well out of date. I'll find a USB key and try updating it today and report back. Thanks!

    Intel C610, RAID and TRIM

    Windows 10, 64bit. It's a Dell T5810 iirc - so no idea what motherboard it is. It's a C610 chipset, that''s the best I can find... But according to everything I've read, TRIM should work. I've got the latest EFI installed, and I've installed the right drivers. What'd I miss? I tried...

    Intel C610, RAID and TRIM

    I've created a RAID 0 array using Intel's RAID ROM; I've also installed the RSTe driver 4.3.0.1223 (which according to Intel is the latest for my system). I'm using TRIMcheck to see if things are working right, and I can verify that for my two SSDs not in a RAID array that running TRIMcheck the...

    Ryzen: Strictly technical

    What Win10 build were you on? Can you re-test this with the latest insider build that they've released?

    Microsoft's latest tactics against Win7 (scrubbed!)

    FWIW, that is saying that a specific build of Windows 10 is EOL. Microsoft has always said that for support you must be up to date. The outrage over stuff like this is just people being uninformed. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/13853/windows-lifecycle-fact-sheet

    iPhone 7

    Yes, however you can see a color difference. The top is yellow, the bottom a rose gold color. On the pictured unit above, it isn't dual color flash. Reference: my 6S+

    Doesn't have the dual flash either.

    ACME parachute opens after impact

    Having done a few solo jumps myself...this seems really wrong. Tandem jumps usually have a drogue to slow everything down. Then there's the main chute, which I believe in tandems is deployed with a pilot chute, NOT by a spring. The pilot chute drags out the main chute. If something is wrong -...

    iPhone 7

    I use 3D touch a fair bit. Great for moving the cursor while typing or for calling my wife in a single "tap".

    "Donald Trump Can Go to Hell..."

    I remember reading his comments...and they were more or less saying that the other NATO members needed to meet their own defense spending obligations - I think something like the US and the UK are the only two nations meeting the defense spending obligated by NATO - everyone else is not spending...

    macOS Sierra (OS X 10.12)

    To keep it short since this isn't the mobile forum: battery life on all seems sub-par compared to the amazing battery life on my 6S+, updates are awful unless you're on a Nexus phone and if you ARE on a nexus phone, the headphone output is terrible. Oh, and the Apple camera while perhaps not the...

    The correct thread. That little triangle arrow thingy down to the left. That is the correct way to point out a post is in the wrong thread, rather than quoting it. His post is in the RIGHT thread... you have the image in the wrong thread by virtue of quoting it. :) -Admin DrPizza

    DNC chair Schultz dropped from convention amid email debacle over Bernie Sanders

    IIRC, there was an email about creating a job listing for Trump's campaign looking for women. Said he'd call them "honey bunch", kiss them and grab their butts...and then told people interested to send email to jobs@trump.com - that is, I believe, election fraud...

    I'm gonna need a kevlar vest for road trips. Stabbing in I-66 rest stop.

    This was my reaction. Kevlar isn't really known to be very slash or stab resistant. Maybe 1-2 stabs, but that's it.

    YAGT: OMG I love guns

    The SP01 was a dream - first three shots at ~22 feet were dead center, and then the rest were all pretty much grouping around the center aside from a stray hit or two (everything was on target in the end.) It was great. Grabbed the P01 next and...what the F? I'd been shooting a bunch that day -...

    CPU not supported for Windows 10?

    I think I have two - you can't combine them, I know that much. I just use one though these days - Xbox, windows, office, visual studio (my MSDN license is tagged to it too) so its not too hard for me to figure it out. Maybe try writing down which one you used for what?

    Microsoft Refines DirectX 12 Multi-GPU with Simple Abstraction Layer

    Why? If they're not relying on proprietary interconnects between the cards like an SLI bridge...Windows already supports multiple videocards running at the same time (I think that limitation was removed in Win8?)

    Should I upgrade from W7 to W10?

    I'll confirm that what I did a year ago was upgrade and then hit the reset button - was a great way to do it without having to deal with any install media.

    CPU not supported for Windows 10?

    If you install and activate Win10 and then go back to 7, your 10 license should be preserved (just make sure to log in to or create a microsoft account.)

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    Except this isn't a 4th grade assignment, and should not be treated as such. For all we know, those sections were written in collaboration with AMD. We have FAR from the whole picture, and so I'm not going to jump to extreme conclusions like you're doing here. And I haven't claimed there was no...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    Except it isn't semantics, as you claimed that running DX12 meant you were running code from AMD. This article seems pertinent: http://techreport.com/review/26239/a-closer-look-at-directx-12 He started on a path that resulted in Mantle, yes. But before Mantle existed, he was just talking...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    This keeps coming up... I believe that it was during the developer talks for DX12 two years ago that it was said that in fact, DX12 was about bringing some of the custom work done for the XBox One to the PC (and phones, if anyone cares about windows phone 10.) The Xbox itself was released in...

    3 dead after Michigan courthouse shooting

    In NJ, yes. The second a smart gun is sold ANYWHERE in the US, all guns in NJ must be smart guns. It amounts to a violation of the 2nd amendment - all someone need do is sell a single $500,000 smart gun over in HI or something and NJ can't have guns after 30 months. The main problem ends up...

    How to make sure I have Win 10 reserved?

    Install it by running setup.exe. To reserve your copy you need to install Win10 by the end of the month - it's really that simple. The free offer ends this month, and if you have not installed by then (thus creating a Win10 license from your Win8.1/7 license) you don't get it for free. As...

    3 dead after Michigan courthouse shooting

    We have a *very* long way to go before smart guns are even reliable. Hell, the gun locks built into S&W revolvers themselves are known for causing the gun to malfunction, I don't want to see electronics added to the mix. There are holsters designed to prevent someone from lifting a gun off you...

    The NRA’s internal revolt over Philando Castile

    Huh? There are reports of there being a gun on his lap and not concealed. There are seemingly questions as to whether he had a CPL even. All I can tell you is that Castile said he was armed (seems to be something agreed upon) and that he claimed to have a CPL. We don't know much beyond that. I...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    When was the last time that the ratio of perf/$ scaled linearly? Even the 980ti wasn't linear in this regard. You always end up paying more for smaller gains the higher up you get. And people do it, too - too many issues with Crossfire and SLI, as well as general power concerns. A lot of people...

    Man, weather got a lot worse in the past three weeks

    Depending on the outside temp. Keep in mind, we have the free standing AC units that vent out a window - their thermostats aren't that good. Generally, if the high will hit 75 or so, the AC is only needed after 4PM when the sun really hits. If its going to hit closer to 78-80, I turn the AC on...

    BLM: Falcon Heights police fatally shot man

    Officer is worried about her reaching for her boyfriend's gun. I'm not at all convinced this was a racist cop killing some black person, but I do think it was a overly jumpy cop who completely fucked up. If he had been afraid of the situation, the better way to handle it is: Hands out the...
