spootdev 56 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 What Infiniband cards / cables do you use. Do they direct connect or through switch? Sent from my HTC One M8s using Tapatalk I'm using older Mellanox cards as well hooked into a 20gb switch atm........will probably be dumping the 20g cards, cables and 20g switch "soon" after a 40g switch purchase as I see some used ones pretty damn cheap right now.

shaefurr 1337 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 This is still a bit in progress, waiting for some replacement server parts and cable wall covers to come in, need to clean out the server and do some wire management. But finally got around to upgrading my TV from my 46" to a 58" 4k. Don't mind the tiny speakers, living in an apartment I cant exactly blast anything anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony24 2 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 @ Nice, wish I had a room similar like that. Have a question thou and probably the wrong spot for it but I have 2 BIG files (8.67GB, 14.35GB) that won't play through my Jailbroken ps3 and amazon tv stick from a i3 4330 (wifi don't have money to buy another 75ft cable to router), Is it bc of the processor or is it bc its on wifi. speeds about 50mbs. Even tested it from my pc from LAN, didn't work, even though my pc is i7 4770K at 1000 mbs. PS3 error said something about cpu, pc or ps3 cpu?

If you have to go with wifi, I would go with nothing less than 802.11AC. Problem is I don't think the PS3 can do AC. So..... if you are running N make sure it's in N-Only mode.

Guest asrequested Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 @ nice! What are some of the Amazon Echos abilities? P.s. The NZXT cases a super nice! The Echo continues to grow with it's 'skills', but the vast majority are useless to me. I bought it primarily for the voice control possibilities. I have a harmony hub, and I was hoping that Amazon would add native control. After doing some research, apparently there is a program language conflict between them. Hopefully, in time they'll figure it out. In the mean time, IFTTT is bridging the gap. At this point the only voice control it gives me is turning on and off, which I like. The NZXT case is really nice. When I was planning my build, I researched a lot of different cases. I hadn't heard of them prior, but I read a review and NZXT was used in comparison (favorably). So I took a look. And I have to say, it's great! The drive cages are configurable, there's lots of space, no sharp edges, sound deadening etc. I'm very happy with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like there's something else going on. Two devices not playing the files, and if you didn't have enough bandwidth, the file should transcode and you should be able to play it. I suggest you start a new thread in the server area, and add as much detail as you can. Screen shots, logs, explain in more detail what you mean by 'won't play' etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaefurr 1337 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Spent the day rewrapping my keyboard tray in new vinyl, and installing some led strips! More lights are always better right? I haven't quite decided which color to set them to, I like white but god it shows dust I didn't even now was there. Think for now I settled on a indigo color. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my 4690k OC'd to 4.5Ghz, peaks at 65C under full load. The stock MSI coolers work so well ive never bothered to water cool the GPU, it peaks around 60C even after hours of gaming.

colejack 30 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Here's my current server and storage setup. Now not all of this is for Emby. One 4U is the MediaNAS and Emby runs in a VM on the Dell R710. The rest is regular storage and lab. If there's any interest I can create a full break down of what everything is and what its used for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most led strips will run in 12 volts. That is a good piece of information. The yellow wire off your PC power supply is 12 volts. The LED strip most likely will have 4 connections Red Green Blue and the 12 volt. So, active wire to the 12 volt and the return line (usually the black wire) to the color you want. But wiring like that will only give you one color. Also, one last piece of information. USB will power... You guessed it 12 volts. So you can power your led strip off the USB in your tv.
