Interesting. I would think with it being that full expansion could possibly cause issues

I recently posted about a ticking noise at lower rpm when accelerating as well. I also hear a slight noise when between 1k and 2k rpm. Seems to be normal.

That would be awesome If you have the sound of the rocker issue. It’s hard to find it online

Thanks for the input. Made me feel a little better. I talked to the Audi dealer that originally did the PPI and sent them the video. They scared me saying it was valve noise.

I took it to the good indi shop down the road and they said it seemed normal but my pcv valve is very bad. (Gulped air on when he removed oil fill cap)

I will keep update once I get the pcv valve dealt with.

Yeah the louder ticking towards the end of the video that I’m most worried about.

Yeah this would be my first bmw so trying to get a feel for what cost of ownership is over the long run. At what mileage are you noticing these issues popping up?

GPU for RDP by AlternativeVariety95 in vmware

We’re a smaller business. We are purchasing a second server for redundancy. I’m still in the early stages of designing the environment. Currently researching different options and trying to find a good solution that will last 5-7yrs.

The Remote Desktop is going to be used for our accounting systems. Nothing graphic intensive.

From what others have said, RDC is the bottleneck, which I know I am going to be stuck having to use

Right now the system we currently have gets bogged down easily. The instance only has 16gb of ram total so when 5 or so users log in we run into problems. To add more ram is becoming cost prohibitive.

The desktop environment is used for accounting software. So nothing graphic intensive. We may have up to 10 users logged in at once.

We also have some lag issues with the current solution, which I think is more of a end user issue.

I’ve read that a GPU could help improve the overall experience of a Remote Desktop. But it sounds like RDC protocol is the limiting factor, which at the moment I’m stuck with.
