Thanks. The ram was DDR XMS3 1600 Corsair. 6x4GB was pricey back then. If it will at least run OK I can consider other RAM later. Microcenter is less than 50 miles. Is there any particular motherboard you'd recommend around $150?

I can't seem to find any boards other than for servers. Perhaps I can reuse 16GB of the RaM in a z97 board. It's a shame to throw out the 980x.

Are the old LGA13666 motherboards still available?

I tried three groups of two different RAM modules with no luck. I reset the BISO to default parameters as well with no luck. It frequently freezes, BSODs, sometimes hard drives are missing at BIOS boot, etc. Other times it boots, then reboots several times before completely powering off...

Now it is rebooting, but continues to crash. It could be bad RAM, but even with only two stcks it still craps out. I was already planning to build a new system, but now perhaps I need two as this dead one was going to be the second system. What CPU would be good for the second system, the 4790K?

Thanks. The computer won't boot now, or at least there is no display. :( I'm screwed now.

I thought SSDs were not recommended for the RIAD? I can't figure out why they would be used independently either.

It was very slow an hour or two ago.

It played the same song all night and was fine in the morning. Then I rebooted a couple times and the display was black again. I bought some cheapo single-slot video card for $48. It's OK so far, but installs software. WTF is the GFExperience?

Thanks. It looks like the D14 works with most RAM, including the Crucial.

Is MSI OK nowadays? I like the fact that one can have 10 USB 3.0 ports. I'm thinking of using a 512GB XP941 in the M.2 if it can boot.

Does it clear the RAM modules? I'm think of getting 4x8GB to start and if that works, I'd add four more. How well does your 5930K OC with that HSF?

No, I don't really have any other cards to use. The monitor is dying, but that is not the issue. It works well enough with the other computers. The audio test is a good idea. I'll try it over the next day.

The D750 is what the D610 should have been if the D600 disaster had not occurred. It's very capable for the money and has excellent IQ, but has has obvious performance limitations.

Arrrgh! My main system appers to be crapping out. Half of the time the video will not engage and the screen is gone. I removed the video and reinserted it. but now it blacked out again. It has also locked up a couple for times for no reason. Is it possibly the card or more likely the...

I would refer to that as a misused word. You know I was very close to being a English major, but could not stand the typing. I consumed many dozens of bottles of Liquid Paper in the 70s. :)

That system is not very storage friendly.

Mine is on the 2012 Ivy bridge in the last of the P series. Results are rather consistent. BTW, why did it create a second post when I edited the first one above?

Heh. :) There were no recording devices back then, and I really don't care about old TV shows now.

I have those 64GB drives as well. They are quite fast depending on the host. :) I'm getting 194 MB/sec. reads and 176 MB/sec. writes. on a laptop according to the Crystal. The device enforces write caching.

"Elly May" died. :( Damn, I feel old.

Hehehe. I was PUI on the 31st, but once a year should be OK.

My problems were with the DSLR thread. http://www.storageforum.net/forum/showthread.php/6694-dSLR-thread?p=184191&viewfull=1#post184191 The post was not terribly long, but most of mine are shorter. :)

Try not to "loose" anything. ;)

In APS-C land (DX or EF-S) I'd prefer Nikon or Sony for general purpose use. Canon sensors are not so good ant higher ISOs.

The D610 should be better, but there is not a tremendous difference. The Canon 16-35/4 IS is the one to get in that range. The IQ is better t5ahn anty either of the 16-35/2.8 lenses (or 17-40) and I have three. Look at The Digital Picture, Lenstip, Cameralabs, Photodo and perahops Lensrental...

So do you think 50°C is OK for continual use a few days at a time?

Bummer, dude,. I'm having the botel of champagne all to nmyslef. :drunk:

Do the monitors achieve 4K with a KVM? I'm thinking of buying two new displays, a normal resolution 24" display for working on and a 4k unit for displaying the images instead of printing them. I've reached the conclusion that working on a 4K monitor will not be feasible due to the size of...

I'm seeing this as well, and am also unable to edit my post as the box is simply blank. :( (Win 7, IE 11)

Lately Canon has really been filling in their lens lineup at the high end. Nikon used to be known for the good mid-range glass. However, their better glass is becoming expensive as well and their DX lineup is just lingering. Due to the lack of fast prime Nikkors during the dark, DX only years...

Is there any alternative to the WD60EZRX in a 6TB slow/cool drive for around $300? The Seagate 6TB becomes too hot to use without cooling, and the Hitachi NAS 7200 RPM drive is marginal for heat. Thanks.

I doubt many people seriously celebrate Saturnalia now.

Merry Christmas Happy Festuvus

I'd say the computer has an SSD, so how can it crash?

That seems like two really. Can the extensible version be condensed in the menu or is it a fully re-edited version?

I don't get it. Isn't that a neurotoxic CI drug?

The short answer is that the lenses are really different enough in FL and aperture that they are not directly comparable. The 70-200/2.8 IS is a fine lens, but I have not had one in some years, so I cannot directly compare it. At equal apertures they are probably similar. I have been using...

Well it's been a few years since I was tested. The cognitive test scores were very good, above average for my age group. They tell you to remember some objects and places and then go through some other test and ask to recall them later - I scored 100%. The math and some other general...

I guess they missed me.

:rofl: Illegal? That is really funny.

I'm not understanding the issue, though it seems you enjoyed being disingenuous. :) Is the goal of the scammers to hack your computer or sell you something useless?

I received the second 100-400 II now. That makes five 100-400s altogether. :rolleyes: The IS on these new lenses is really impressive. I'm not very stable anymore, but 1/30 at 400mm is just fine. I'd expect that the younger people can go to slower speeds.

:rofl: How many decades is that?

She has that one. I should have specified the Hobbits.

I have 3x100-400, 3x24-70/2.8 (two original and one II), 3x16-35/2.8 (one original and two II), three 1.4x converters (two-II and one III), 3x1Ds III, 2x5D III, etc. Some other lenses are not exactly the same, but the same focal length, e.g., 300/4 non-IS, 300/4 IS, 300/2.8 IS or 400/5.6 and...

So there are two Blue-Rays I could buy somebody for XMAS?

Oh yeah, the new 100-400 is a major improvement. :) It's not the 200-400 though.

How many are there so far in the series?
