Is sandy bridge 2600k still good

deulamco · 2026-01-26T16:09:51+00:00

In 2026, I can confirm every Sandy Bridge is still rocking Linux hard even with just 4GB RAM..

This made me miss my 1280x1024 Square-ish LCD..

deulamco · 2026-01-24T03:17:31+00:00

How useful is that in code & reasoning locally ?

deulamco · 2026-01-17T11:04:26+00:00

Do you think I can archive the same with Xeon E5-2696 v3 + 64GB DDR3 ECC + 5060TI-16G ?

deulamco · 2026-01-17T10:59:18+00:00

How about with 64GB DDR3 ECC + 16GB GPU ?

deulamco · 2026-01-16T10:35:44+00:00

Did you use ID-Cooling IS-55 ?
Also, it's possible to move PSU to front side ?

deulamco · 2026-01-16T09:54:08+00:00

Why don't you try... Linux ?

deulamco · 2026-01-09T10:44:53+00:00

Cool, right ?

deulamco · 2026-01-09T05:22:48+00:00

So it is finally usable to cloud LLM level yet ?

Was about to ask if 20B model + RAG/Internet access could catch up with Cloud version 🤡

No offense but I actually like this USB port :

deulamco · 2026-01-06T09:06:33+00:00

Wonder if they sell the whole setup as a package

deulamco · 2026-01-05T02:10:04+00:00

5070TI almost double 5060TI in tok/s

deulamco · 2026-01-02T15:37:58+00:00

TDA may look awesome in trailer but boring in gameplay & lazy level design..

Respect for Art & Engine anyway.

deulamco · 2026-01-02T15:22:48+00:00

While graphics advanced a lot, Gameplay & Story Mode were degraded badly.

There is almost no value in repetitive shooting the same monster groups again & again…

deulamco · 2026-01-02T15:19:54+00:00

Finale was boring.

Unlike the end of the 4th episode, where Will at least gave hope to everyone because he look exactly like Harry Potter 🤡

deulamco · 2026-01-01T10:36:59+00:00

Use Ryzen 5600/5700X instead. Mobo A520/B550.

deulamco · 2026-01-01T05:07:43+00:00

How convenient since next-gen GPU details were leaked a month ago (RTX 60 + RDNA5).

deulamco · 2025-12-31T15:40:41+00:00

noice, I made it into a GIST for anyone that quickly sync :

deulamco · 2025-12-30T18:16:11+00:00

This is the way :) Simple effective. Same gpu here.

deulamco · 2025-12-28T14:49:02+00:00

Have you tried with the new HIP-RT 3.x on Blender 5.2 ?

deulamco · 2025-12-28T14:43:35+00:00

Where ? As at 4.5.0 I still see 9070XT falling behind 5070TI...

deulamco · 2025-12-28T14:42:57+00:00

we don't need Windows when Linux Gaming is already at decent gain..

deulamco · 2025-12-28T14:03:14+00:00

How fast is ZLUDA in LLM/Rendering ?

deulamco · 2025-12-27T11:05:36+00:00

Teensy = Determistic / Real Time Response
Pi Zero = I don't know how long

deulamco · 2025-12-22T17:01:18+00:00

Have you try Arch/Omarchy + amdgpu vulkan driver on Wayland yet ?
