    Audio passthrough windows to linux and vice-versa?

    Howdy Y'all. I've have a question for you guys. I'm setting up two computers, one is windows 10 and the other is manjaro linux (gnome). The windows 10 rig is the main gaming rig. I'd like to connect the microphone to the linux rig so that I can handle voip with my other computer, among other...

    How important are PLP or other enterprise features?

    Howdy people. At some point in the future I'll be looking to put together an all ssd raid array. I was looking at 2 different ssd options to do this, but the enterprise option is almost double the cost per gb. I'm wondering how beneficial these features are. I was looking at 1.5tb optane...

    Asrock Rack ROMED4ID-2T: Ram compatiblity (QVL/non-QVL)

    So would I be able to run dimms outside of the qvl without issue? I think I even have a stash of 256gb Rdimms lying around.

    Asrock Rack ROMED4ID-2T: Ram compatiblity (QVL/non-QVL)

    Howdy. I'm looking to pick up one of these boards if/when the prices drop again this November. I remember reading in Will's review that he mentioned the board supporting up to 256gb DDR4 Rdimms... but there are none on the qvl. Additionally, the qvl list seems a little sparse for any of the...

    [WTB] [US-IN] - Epyc 7003 3rd gen cpu, RAM, maybe motherboard.

    Still looking. Figured I'd add the ram qvl list here as well. Having a hard time tracking down some of these modules and their list prices. Most places either seem to be out of stock or require a quote, or both. If you have any leads let me know.

    [WTB] [US-IN] - Epyc 7003 3rd gen cpu, RAM, maybe motherboard.

    You're right of course, but my current mounting is designed for mini-itx sized boards. I'd also consider the romed8-2T, if the price was right. I'd have to switch my case out, but that would certainly expose the capabilities of the epyc cpu. If I was moving that way then I'd also open up my...

    [WTB] [US-IN] - Epyc 7003 3rd gen cpu, RAM, maybe motherboard.

    Howdy Y'all. I'm upgrading one of my systems and looking to go from a prosumer/desktop cpu to Epyc for more pcie lanes and bandwidth. I figured that I'd check here before heading to ebay. Core count and speed are not as important as bandwidth, so I probably don't need a 64 core cpu. I'm...

    Trying to saturate 100 gbe (with optane), 3rd gen xeon with optane dimms VS something ddr5 and optane U.2 drive array

    Several are running 2x pcie 4.0 nvme drives. About half a dozen or so of the bigger units are running 4x pcie 4.0 nvme raid 0 cards. For a few of the big players I'd like to get my hands on p5800x optane drives at some point. Not all of them support smb over rdna, but we're working on upgrading...

    Trying to saturate 100 gbe (with optane), 3rd gen xeon with optane dimms VS something ddr5 and optane U.2 drive array

    Sorry for the formatting. Chicago manual of style never sat well with me :p. As far as saturation goes. This is for a small office lab setup. Multiple clients (6-24) all connected over 100gbe fiber. The idea is to be able to write 1.5tb to the "cache" at max speeds over 100gbe before it gets...

    Trying to saturate 100 gbe (with optane), 3rd gen xeon with optane dimms VS something ddr5 and optane U.2 drive array

    Howdy guys. I haven't posted here much, but I figured that you people are some of the most knowledgeable about homelab setups and optane so this would be the place to go. I'm getting ready to build out a nas for my homelab. I was previously just using a ryzen chip and motherboard. I'm looking...

    Canada (SOLD): Switches! Dell S6100 (64x40G) $450 && Dell Z9100 (32x100G) $750 (USD; obo)

    I'll be interested in the Dell S6100-ON. I may be interested in both, depending on price. I do live in the USA, however. Let me know what you're looking for or if you are interested in sending things south of the border. ;)

    DANG eu only. Let me know if you'd do the usa. I already purchased some 905ps. But p5800x is the holy grail.

    FS: AMD/Pensando Dual 200GbE DPUs

    Please let us know when you do! The bluefields max out at 200gb/s right? I guess one of my questions would be whether 400gbe networking is even worth getting right now on pcie 4.0, or whether it would be wise to wait for the next generation of DPUs that are pcie 5.0 compatible. I'm still...

    FS: AMD/Pensando Dual 200GbE DPUs

    I have another question. How programmable are these, per se? I know it isn't listed on the data sheet anywhere, but would it be possible to run an 8x breakout cable (200g qsfp-dd to 8x25g sfp28) on these cards? I saw that the ports were only listed down for quad 50g, but I'm curious to know if...

    FS: AMD/Pensando Dual 200GbE DPUs

    If you don't mind me asking, what were these used for? The theoretical max for 16 lanes of pcie 4.0 is only 256Gb/s right? If I recall these are also single x16 slot cards, without an auxiliary card. I may be interested. I'll have to let you know closer to the end of the month when I get paid.
