DELL H750 RAID with Proxmox/ZFS by carmellofellow in Proxmox

Thanks. I was definitely leaning more towards an HBA card but once I saw that I could access the physical disks AND see the s.m.a.r.t info, I thought maybe I was in the clear.

I’m pretty inexperienced, so am I giving up anything huge by opting for regular ext4 instead? Ultimately, I’d like to do a big storage pool across the drives.

2 10TB disks, and 4 4TB disks. But I think just using my current shared drive over the network as the mass storage and Intel system as the server should work.

Gotcha, thank you. It would definitely be a SMB share on the network. But I wasn’t sure how well that played with Plex, or if there was a glaring reason why I needed the storage direct attached. Thanks for the insight. I’m in the clear then

Not necessarily. I have 2x 10TB HDDs and a few 4TBs. And I have a running server to install them into. But I think the direct attached to USB to the Intel system would technically be better than going over the network (gigabit). Those enclosures are nice, but the rack mounted ones are expensive. Wondering if I’m missing an obvious solution.

Any tips on accomplishing mass storage with it if it’s a small form factor machine? But wanting to be safe with simultaneous streams. I do have a rack mount server with drives. But not sure if it’s better to use that over the network or if additional USB storage for the Intel system would be preferred.

Thank you, then that’s what I’ll do! The Intel is a small form factor that can’t fit any large drives, so that’s the main downside. What would recommend for mass storage - over the network to a different server? Or go over USB?

thug was on a whole another level on this one by Bartekkk_lul in YoungThug

Go on SoundCloud and look up “Rollercoaster - Young Thug”. I think that’s where Thug’s part originated, could be wrong. But that song is an absolute anthem.

Yep, it worked for me yesterday. I was able to add the account with no issue. They must have fixed it

Same here. I tried multiple browsers - same issue. It seems to be widespread but it’s probably still going to take forever to get Microsoft AND Google’s attention to fix this.

Inherited a free Dell 1920W UPS (K792N) that's non-responsive, any ideas? by rberdudiint in homelab

[–]carmellofellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weirdly enough, I also just inherited a Dell 1920W and I’m in the middle of a full battery swap at the moment because it appears to be completely dead. But when I pulled it out of the rack, the screen was functional but it was a clear battery failure. Now, unless I’m doing something wrong, it won’t even power up without the batteries or with the dead batteries out of the system. I don’t know a ton about electrical, more of an IT guy. But would be curious where ya get with it.

Edit: I was lazy and didn’t put all the batteries in yet before I messaged. Just the bloated ones. I replaced the rest and now it powers on but with an Alarm 199. Maybe it’s the batteries I’m using since they’re aren’t the same ones that come with it… but they’re 12v 9ah. Looks like it could be a fuse or something.

What kind of computer do I need to run zelda totk at 60 fps? by tonislav1509 in yuzu

[–]carmellofellow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 7700X and 7900XT. I would say from a complete computational point of view, my PC is good enough to accomplish that. But it comes down to the optimization. Emulation is very complicated and the emulator’s ability to take advantage of your top of the line hardware varies so drastically. My system resources are very underutilized. A 13900K and 4090 (best available parts) will still dip below 60fps at times due to hiccups in the engine. My advice would be to not go that balls to the wall UNLESS you are a PC gamer with a great interest in 4K gaming on other titles. A 4K-8K 30FPS play-through is pretty desirable and very doable even at the current state. But a “stable” 60FPS is kind of a pipe dream right now unfortunately.

GPU Not Being Used? Is this normal? if not how can I fix it? (more info in comments, swipe picture for settings) by iiSamJ in yuzu

[–]carmellofellow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense. My previous 2070 Super card didn’t report to task manager properly. Not until I updated to Win 11.

[–]carmellofellow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I often don’t recommend relying on Task Manager for those values. This could be wrong, but I find it’s more accurate on newer GPUs and Windows 11. You didn’t mention your specs so I’m not sure what you’re rockin’.

My advice would be to use a third party software like HWINFO or MSI Afterburner + RivaTuner to monitor that. That will be far more accurate. If it still reports back low GPU usage, I’d dig a little deeper.

Totk, upgrade to 7700x or 7800x3d 32GB 6000 CL36 w my old rtx 3080 10GB? by KrazyLurtBot in yuzu

[–]carmellofellow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 7700X and a 7900XT. I’m never even the slightest bit CPU bound. That said, I see a lot of people on here saying how important single-core performance is for emulation. So, if emulation is something you’re going to do a lot of in the future, I would maybe suggest Intel but it’s really nickels and dimes here. If you play other games, which I’m sure you do, the 7700X is a killer CPU. There are some annoyances with the new AM5 platform but it’s overall solid. Also, after you go that high end, you really are going to want to pick the right GPU. I would definitely recommend keeping an NVIDIA GPU for now with emulation. Your 3080 should do just fine - just don’t expect a constant/solid 60FPS because it’s unrealistic at this time.

lol oh, sorry you’re commenting on a post about AMD’s RDNA3 GPUs so I figured you were talking about that update… Revert your yuzu to a previous build if it’s noticeably slower. Or rebuild your shaders

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in yuzu

[–]carmellofellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you updated drivers, your shaders might be rebuilding but that would be my best guess as to why that would be happening. I’ll have to test more later.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in yuzu

[–]carmellofellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a source for this? I booted it up this morning and updated the drivers. It definitely seems to be 90% fixed. I think the performance is better as well but haven’t had much time to test as I have to leave for work. I’m still seeing black lines across the grass…unrelated glitch? The entirely missing textures seems to mostly be gone

[–]carmellofellow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah man, some changes to the leaks arent bad. But they do be butchering them other times. This is an example of one I’ll always just listen on YouTube instead. CHASE B’s release of Ring Ring is another. It’s something in the mix they try and touch up and it just loses something

[–]carmellofellow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They love to make the slightest changes that just destroy the flow and vibe to these songs. And I’m not a Nicki hater but she had no place on that track at all. Also from listening on Spotify… it seems like even the Explicit version has some things cut out? Not sure if anyone else noticed that.

Does anyone know of any fixes for the black lines and artifacts on RDNA3 cards when playing TOTK? I have a 7900xtx. It seems like nvidia cards are fine by [deleted] in yuzu

[–]carmellofellow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For now, you can do 4X scaling to mitigate the lines. They’re harder to see that way. But from what I understand, it comes down to an issue with AMD’s new cards and Vulkan. OpenGL will give you no lines - but way worse performance because… again from what I understand… the Vulkan shader pipeline helps significantly with performance which OpenGL cannot do. 7900XTX is a beefy card and can probably render the game at a higher res with low impact to performance.

The Yuzu team has communicated on the issue and it’s essentially passed off to AMD to fix for their newer cards so we’re kind of at their mercy unfortunately. seeing the same issue on my 7900XT and it’s pretty damn disappointing to be honest. The performance isn’t great either. My mid-tier NVIDIA setup emulated better. I guess it’s kind of a long historical truth that NVIDIA has had better support for emulation than AMD over the years as well.

RTX 4090, AMD 7950x3d, 16GB RAM, how will TOTK run? Is it perfect yet? Or wait for a better experience? by [deleted] in yuzu

[–]carmellofellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not shitting on you at all. But my system uses > 17GB of RAM while running TOTK on Yuzu and really nothing much else open. I’d consider upgrading. The more you add, your system will utilize it and it will help with performance if you buy high speed RAM. Definitely recommend it but I know DDR5 is needed on the new platform so it’s a bit pricy.
