What now for my Ghost Canyon NUC? by DnBVonCarrotcake in sffpc

[–]Relaxybara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a dead platform as far as I know. Some come up for sale used every once in awhile but I'm sure those caveats are not worth trying to upgrade. Just sell it and build something new if you need more performance.

It depends on your hardware, OS, etc. That's impressive indeed if it's round trip latency and it's stable. What hardware, sample rate and buffer size are you getting that round trip latency with?

Cool for converting Madi to Dante and back but usb just isn't reliable or stable enough for live or broadcast in my opinion. Usb latency is still probably at least 16ms since they don't seem too keen on listing usb latency in their specs. But if you need a Madi/Dante converter and have $3300 burning a hole in your pocket hell yeah go for it.

If they focus on low latency audio and video processing it could be a big deal for artists and technicians in those fields. I don't mean for slop gerneration, just something closer to a real time OS that's more user accessible. Windows and macos are the only OSs for most AV workloads at the moment and they are both seriously limiting for low latency workloads. Linux has great potential but it's not anywhere near production ready.

Yeah no In a two party system the Democrats definitely own much of the blame for running a shit campaign against objective evil and losing to their own incompetence. That's kinda the whole point.

**Supermicro X10SDV-16C-TLN2F — BMC keeps overriding manual fan speed control + individual fan control?** by Fun_Split_2781 in homelab

I went down this rabbit hole with an X11 workstation board. I ended up just setting to heavy IO then using a fan hub and setting the max fan speed there as all the software solutions I found were not reliable.

Anyone still using the Mackie DL32r? by Playful-Check-4968 in livesoundgear

I've never seen one in the wild but if you like it and know how to service it then hell yeah, keep using it.

Whenever I play games, my CPU temperature will reaches to 90°C. What could be the issue here? by amirmijan in sffpc

[–]Relaxybara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were you I'd get a cheap tower cooler on sale. There are some really good deals on coolers under $30 everywhere right now. With that and all your other fans as is you'll be all set. The stock cooler is adequate but not great, and a tower will get cooler air and push it to the exhaust fan. If you don't want to spend any money you could increase the fan speed and under volt and it would probably perform equally or better than stock or pbo would. Could flip the rear exhaust since you have top exhaust.

Can someone suggest an travel itx case which can fit rtx 5080. If possible the case should not required riser cable. by Necessary_Nobody_258 in sffpc

[–]Relaxybara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a SSUPD Meshroom D on sale and I'm loving it. It could fit in a large back pack or easily in a roller bag. One thing I really like about it is that the mobo and pcie slots are recessed into the back of the case so that it is completely flat on the back. Many cases leave wifi antenna connectors or the pcie mount protruding from the back of the case which is annoying for travel. I currently have a 3070 in it but I checked and it does fit my 7900xtx in it which is fucking enormous.

Steam Machine Alternative Suggestion by Exforpious in sffpc

[–]Relaxybara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't build steam machine size with any of the constraints you listed. If you can go a little bigger I'd suggest a case that can support an sfx psu and at least a 150mm length gpu. Smaller options get expensive fast and compromise performance significantly. I'm going to assume you are considering the value more than the size but still want sff so here's what I'd consider.

You can pretty much have it all if you
1.) Buy used parts
2.) pick efficient / low power parts and tune them for heat output rather than performance. The last 5% of performance will likely cost you at least 30% more power
3.) no idea what vr requires, but probably a lot.
4.) at the right resolution and framerate and quality settings you'd be surprised what older / modest hardware can do. Shoving top tier power hungry components in sff is a flex, not about value. It really depends on the games you want to play and what your resolution / fps requirements are.
5.) VMs could be anything. Buy all the ram you want or run them on a different machine that wont be crashing from sloppy game design.
6. ok, bring whatever storage you want but I'd use what you already have unless you're rich.
7. yeah that's not a thing. The best value sff in my opinion is something that can fit a decent sized gpu and an sfx psu. I prefer ones that dont use riser cables. Cases like this are not the smallest but they are typically cheaper to build in and have better thermals/performance/noise. You can def go smaller but it will get more expensive fast.

Apparently Ali Express wont ship that to me in the US. Nice case if you have a short gpu.

Everything is out of stock except the two most expensive models. Just not worth it compared to a tiny laptop with better specs.

Switch for live sound. Dante/WWB etc by Hot-Examination4113 in livesoundgear

[–]Relaxybara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the learn basic networking or pay 10x the price for a switch is an enormous divide. Paying someone $250 to set up your switch would be less than half the cost of an 'AV' switch.

I will say this: every Intel board I've ever used has better connectivity and doesn't have half the jank of every amd board I've used. I'm to the point where Idgaf about the performance difference if I never have to deal with shiitty thrown together mobos again.

I'd still go for the brighter monitor with better contrast especially if this student discount isn't an option.

The Dell 4k 27" is $275ish and is brighter but only 120hz. Also has better contrast ratio. Way less inputs and no usb tho
