    Server Processors

    This is for work, not for me. I'm doing some research on multiprocessor setups in server configuration and I thought I might ask here first. Performance wise, would any quad configuration of Xeon E5 46XX v2 beat out any dual configuration of Xeon E5 - 26XX v2 or is there an equilibrium point...

    Minimalist desk for minimal area

    So. I'm 24 and I live at home with my parents. This is why my desk is in my bedroom. As you can see I really love hockey. And bourbon. And video games. The plant image on the right is an Agave plant. I got it on a trip to Mexico when I went to the Cabo Wabo Cantina in Cabo San Lucas. Agave...

    780 Ti suggestions

    Looking to get my hands on a 780 Ti, I'll be gaming in 1080p with a single monitor. As far as overclocking goes, I'll just be pushing the card to it's limit at stock voltage. Max budget on this is $750 US. Does the community have any suggestions on this? Thanks!
