    Which CPU(s) are the kings in x265 encoding?

    I've been busy hibernating thus lost track of what is what and really can't seem to get any straight answers out of Google these days, even reviews tend to be more 'sponsor' agnostic these days... So I ask fellow oldies who hibernate with their eyes wide open... Do I go say Intel Platinum 8180...

    Hello, I am considering an upgrade from Opteron 4180 to Opteron 4384 and I was wondering if anyone has experience running a 64-bit VMs inside a nested ESXi on this CPU. In otherwords if it supports AMD Rabit Virtualization Indexing that is required for this.

    RAID0 on motherboard's SATA not as fast as expected

    Hi. Forgive the newbie question! I have an 8 x 12TB disk Zfs RAID0 array running on the motherboard's SATA connectors on an AMD X399 motherboard. Read speeds top out at about 800 MB/sec.

It's been water cooled since it started life...
