    *** Microsoft Windows 11 Thoughts & Discussion Thread ***

    While clearly not practical to the same level these days - it's stories like this that make you appreciate how far from the "good old days" of Microsoft, that Windows 11 actually is https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/19/wing_commander_windows_95/

    Glasses wearers - help please!

    Assuming the screens are the same size and the scaling is set the same, then at 1080P you should be straining less as everything should be bigger. Even if the screens at work are smaller e.g. the more typical 24" for 1080P screens, then the Pixels per Inch will still be lower (i.e. everything...

    Large custom windows iso, not seeing images

    Why an iso / wim? Why not just image with something like Macrium Reflect?

    Need some inspiration for garden / shed placement

    How big is the existing shed? 5' x 4'? I think a 4m x 2m shed is going to look ridiculous in such a small garden. Personally I think an 8'x6' (2350x1750mm) or 9'x6' (2650x1750mm) would be the best option to the left next to the wall, that way it won't come out past the fence and won't come too...

    Need Help Choosing DAS Backup Solution

    May as well have not bothered backing up then... you don't know the actual brand or model of hard drive being used inside it, or where it was sourced from Good luck with that from a brand no one has ever heard of.

    How to attach twin wall polycarbonate sheeting to my wall greenhouse

    I don't know - I've not got a router, but always looking for an excuse to get one

    How to attach twin wall polycarbonate sheeting to my wall greenhouse

    Could you use a router to cut a groove into your framing and then slot the polycarbonate in?

    Mixing and matching RAM

    Outside of synthetic benchmarks or the select few memory sensitive games then I doubt you'll be able to notice.

    Mixing and matching RAM

    Yes but they aren't in order - hence why it has 2, 4, 3, 1 after the DDR4_

    Mixing and matching RAM

    The bit above the table is key - ChannelA = slot 2 and slot 4, Channel B = slot 1 and slot 3. So you need to use a slot from both of those channels, i.e. slot 2 and slot 1, or slot 4 and slot 3 (which is what the diagram below shows, for 2 modules use either DDR4_2 and DDR4_1, or DDR4_4 and DDR4_3.

    Mixing and matching RAM

    According to the manual slots 1&2 are what should be used for Dual Channel (although 3&4 is also acceptable)

    Mixing and matching RAM

    The best option then is to buy a 2x 32GB kit - you've nothing to lose by trying it with your existing RAM (although probably better to put the new kit in slots 1 & 2, and move your old RAM to slots 3 & 4). Worst case it ends up being unstable and you remove your old RAM.

    Mixing and matching RAM

    The bigger question is what are you doing that you think needs 64 or 96GB of ram and is "ok" on a 2700X CPU?

    Official 2024 Chinese Grand Prix Race Thread - Shanghai International Circuit - Race 5/24

    The only downside being that now an incident in the sprint potentially means the car doesn't get turned around fast enough to make it out for race qualifying. A good comparison of the different years changes to the sprint format here...

    BMW and M Power Owners

    Presumably it's the same auto boxes in those as the current Minis, in which case the 7 speed getrag dual clutch was very good in a Cooper S I drove (a car you'd typically think would be something that would benefit from a manual), and the 8 speed aisin is supposed to be just as good

    Over-rated / terrible movies?

    Much like everything by Tarantino, I thought it was an overrated pile of crap

    What now for VMWare? What now for virtualisation?

    Surely if enterprise support is needed then they should be using xenserver rather than xcp-ng?

    Mixing and matching RAM

    It's certainly possible, but not always advisable :) 98% of the time it'll be fine, especially in your case the likelihood of it working is increased by them being from the same manufacturer, same speed, same timings etc. The other 2% of the time it can be a case that no matter what you do...

    Recommend 92mm cooler

    I've used this one before, decent enough - it's got it's own backplate and brackets rather than push pins. My basket at OcUK: 1 x Raijintek Aidos Direct Contact CPU Cooler - Black (SKU: HS-013-RT) = £14.99 Total: £18.98 (includes delivery: £3.99)
