----------------------------------------![]() I believe that many Teams are getting more Members because most crunchers like joining a Team. If more of us posted here, we could get more great Team Mates. THIS is how we drew as many Team Mates all these years; not many join a Team that is so quiet. I know I wouldn't. How many of you agree or not? EDIT: Ok, we have always had Team Mates well verse in building systems. With the computers at the moment, what would you recommend today? I am lookind at HP or Dell. This time, I want to add something other than a crunching machine. Dell has a all-ii-one that looks awesome; actually two, a VR type. Ok, maybe without the VR would work for me. One that I could also do fun personal stuff besides work. Wow, it's been along time since I stated that one. ![]() 9 October 2018 Total Run Time (Rank) 4651:359:14:18:53 (#38) Points Generated (Rank) 5,863,675,234 (#41) Results Returned (Rank) 14,504,921 (#40) Daily Team Stats from last refresh: Total Run Time --- Points Generated --- Results Returned 1:171:03:16:14 --- 1,707,088 --- 2,697 Brought to you by "Grid Num3ers Fun", a Num3ers Fun Company *tm The biggest and most funniest data corporation on the InterWebs!

One that I could also do fun personal stuff besides work. Wow, it's been along time since I stated that one. [:)) All in one machines tend to run hot, particular when running close to or at 100% load. If you're comfortable rolling your own PC, I'd go with the Ryzen 5 1600 and a B350 Mobo. I'd also get a Corsair single fan AIO cooler, and 16GB of RAM (2x8GB). This setup is probably one of the best computing power per $ configurations out there. My R5 1600 mini ITX build at 100% load runs 6 cores/12 threads at 54 to 57C all day long. You'll need a GPU with the R5 1600, so go with a 1030 if you're not into gaming or a 6GB 1060 if you want to play modern games. For VR you might want to get a 1080, which are fairly cheap now that the 2080 is Nvidia's top card. This setup is also fairly efficient from a power bill standpoint. Now, if you're really only considering a new OEM PC, I honestly have no idea which way you should go, but I'd probably lean toward Dell over HP, and I definitely wouldn't get an all in one. My $0.02. |

NOAA: The first winter-like storm of the season will blast into southern Colorado on Sunday. The storm will bring gusty north winds, sharply colder temperatures and snow to much of the region. Blah blah, "and it will blast into Texas". Ouch! FWIW, it's cooler today down here in SW Florida, as in mid 70s at night instead of low 80s. On the hardware front, I setup a NAS today in my home office (Asustor 4004T). So far, so good. I wish I'd gone this route much sooner. Hopefully I can sort out the multiple files on multiple hard drives on multiple PCs mess that I have currently. |
