    Power Strip With Individual Power Draw Monitoring?

    I'd like a power strip that monitors the power draw of all devices plugged into it and can be controlled over IP (through a wired ethernet connection). Ideally I could interface with it directly over IP so I could, for example, create a CSV file that contains the power consumption in watts at a...

    Long Flexible M.2 to PCI Adapter?

    Thanks for your suggestion. I just purchased these items and should receive them sometime next week. We'll see if they work. Edit: I tried these out and they work great! There's barely enough room between the bottom of the motherboard and the PSU for the PCIe card adapter (the top does overlap...

    Long Flexible M.2 to PCI Adapter?

    I have an MSI X670-P Wi-Fi motherboard with the following layout: Currently I have the OS boot drive in M2_1, and two 2-slot GPUs in PCI_E1 and PCI_E3. I would like to add a PCIe 3.0 X8 networking card, and I'm OK with it running at X4 speeds, but X2 speeds are a little too slow. Given...

    File Copies In Windows Stops and Starts; V Shaped Ramp In Transfer Speed

    I have two Windows 10 computers directly networked together, but when I copy a single, huge file (20GB) between them, I get performance that looks like this: For some reason, after a certain period of time, the copy speed falls off a cliff and then ramps back up. I can't really tell what's...

    Intel XL710-QDA2 in PCIe 4.0 x 2 Slot?

    I want to directly connect two computers using two Intel XL710-QDA2 40Gbps PCIe 3.0 x8 cards. However, the only slot I have available on my MSI x670-P Wi-Fi motherboard is a PCIe 4.0 x 2 slot (the physical slot size is x16). See "PCI_E4" in the diagram below: If the card I would put in the...

    Pass Through Multiple GPUs to Virtual Machine with Hyper-V

    I followed this tutorial to try and pass through GPUs to a Hyper-V virtual machine: My system has two NVIDIA 1080 Ti GPUs in it; and for some reason only one of them is fully working. Both of them show up in device manager in the VM: But in my application that utilizes the GPUs, only one...
