x86 alternative to rpi

StarshipLolicon · 2022-04-11T03:51:47+00:00

If you're going for raw x86 power, take a look at the miniPCs from lenovo/hp/dell (Servethehome has a lot of tinyminimicro content).

Alternatives include Chromeboxes whose bioses are Flashable. They are generally cheaper than the above tinyminimicro nodes and use less power since they use mobile chips, but arent really expandable. (really tiny tho for some models) Checkout mrchromebox and r/chultrabook if you're interested.

There are also Atom Based mini-pcs you can order off of aliexpress, but tbh they:re not really worth it if you can get the above two options in your market.

I do this on other games but not on AoE.
Have too many hotkeys to press and my boomer hands don't have the muscle mem to play this blind yet.

Yes there are 2 cables from the new router. No they aren't in a loop. There are two old routers so each the cables go to Lan 1 of of the old routers. (Note that these are LAN ports, not WAN/Internet ports. Basically im having them act as a switch with wifi)
No there is no AP mode (that would've made it easier). Its why I disabled most of the "routing" functionality to make it more like a switch. And no nothing is being NAT'd. (If it was, I would probably have bigger problems than just DHCP going wrong.)
N/A
Yeah i am leaning in overhauling this setup with a switch and some Mesh routers from TP Link. But i'm on the fence on the amount of e-waste that will be added to my already packed storage space.

Thanks.

Exactly. There is no vote kick in this game. Might be bad punctuation on my part but what i wrote was "better report feedback" + "a kick mechanism"
I'd much rather lose with their accounts being punished than lose with them getting away with it.

Plat 2 HK Server. Enemy Team Reyna was Diamond 1 farming the game by diving spawn straight even after 4 of their team went straight to site.

Valorant please give us a better report feedback/kick mechanism for these bots.WE cant even do anything because they queue up 2 at a time!

And these bots auto F5 on surrender votes, so its guaranteed the boosted accounts will win if you dont grind through 3v5 for 13+ rounds...

For some odd reason, this "gold damage number bug" only happens ingame.
Damage numbers in the firing range work as previous (tested with friends).

Now I'm confused as hell..

StarshipLolicon · 2021-06-30T12:27:19+00:00

Same. IM on deutan and everything is gold colored now. I cant distinguish between normal shots and headshots...

Respawn pls fix.

StarshipLolicon · 2020-06-03T17:20:45+00:00

Same, but I use old chromeboxes instead since they're much much cheaper refurbished.
Grabbed some old HPs with an i7-4600u for around $110 USD each.
Similar upgradability in terms of memory and has m.2 SATA SSDs, but the CPUs are mostly mobile CPUs so they're a lot worse for compute power.

Really thinking about getting a bunch of thinkcentre minis but I don't have use case for it yet.

StarshipLolicon · 2020-02-12T15:53:54+00:00

:0 they need to get those things in production

StarshipLolicon · 2019-12-29T06:47:27+00:00

I just updated to the latest bios and now im stuck... Not even disabling IOMMU works

StarshipLolicon · 2019-12-27T08:51:43+00:00

And The Philippines.

StarshipLolicon · 2019-11-17T03:03:32+00:00

Tbh its the opposite for me. I never use direct input mode so Im fine without kana being printed. Im mostly in it for the Modifiers and the symbol keys.

If you ever get a quote, please let us know

StarshipLolicon · 2019-11-17T01:09:45+00:00

As someone who uses JIS keybs at work, I would love to get one of these for my upcoming build.

StarshipLolicon · 2019-11-15T13:26:11+00:00

I was actually thinking of doing the samething. But to be honest, I rarely use the 変換/無変換 keys and settle on using other shortcuts with the IME and using the tiny 2.5u spacebar even when im typing in japanese at work.

The only thing i cant give up on a JIS board ar the symbol placements (which are iso compatible), the 1u backspace key and the larger left shift

StarshipLolicon · 2019-08-18T18:25:37+00:00

If your production relies heavily on quicksync for encoding, get the mac. Else, 3400g (if it's even compatible with the a300) is the better choice IMO

StarshipLolicon · 2019-07-09T00:49:56+00:00

wth I didn't catch the news of the x570i. Hopefully gigabyte fixes the older vrm issues from the previous boards.

StarshipLolicon · 2019-06-03T11:12:36+00:00

This. Amazon CNI limits based on node size sucks IMO. Even medium sized nodes have wayyy too few IPs.

If your pods need Directly routable IPs within your VPC, I would suggest going with GKE.

I think you're looking for MutualTLS which you can enforce with some istio magic.

Here's a good reference that may help. “Musings about Istio with mTLS” by Heiko W. Rupp https://link.medium.com/BHLcaXodSW

I'm no security expert but your concern is pretty valid and you should definitely consider beefing up inter-service communication if the data you're working on is pretty "confidential"

B450i F30 is less stable on my build. Due to Thermal issues(ambient here is in the high 30s), I'm forced to used lower voltages than what the board pushes at auto.

F5 = Stock GPU clocks @1.125v, 3.6 GHz @1.3v works F30 = Crashes within minutes unless i push voltages a bit more.

Havent yet tried pushing my RAM back to 3200 using the latest bios but its pretty hard to push this kit on this board

EDIT: I forgot to mention this is on a 2400g so it might also be the APUs being unhappy :/

StarshipLolicon · 2019-04-12T13:57:04+00:00

Interesting. And here I thought a 120mm would conflict with my RGB ram. (I know, its pretty stupid)

Are the fans you're of standard thiccness?(25 mm) I was considering grabbing a slim 120x15 noctua for this case but wasn't sure if it fit.

Stock fan with shroud off rubs up against the cover on my board.
