ooh dual socket! what is it for?
edinbruh@feddit.it 5 months ago
It’s a supermicro x8dal-i with two xeon x5650 from 2010. 6c/12t each, base frequency 2.33 GHz, turbo to 3.2 GHz single core, 3 DDR3 ports each in two Numa nodes, for a total of 24GB at 2400 MT/s. It only supports PCIe 2.0, for a 1060 3GB.
It’s slow as hell in single thread, it’s acceptable in multi thread. It doesn’t go out of memory. It sounds like a lawnmower. It boots up between 1 min and 6 min. It overheats and shuts down in summer (hence the desk fan and the little fan blowing on the chipset). It chokes that 1060 with its slow PCIe. Lots of sata, only one 128 GB SSD. Most games from before the 2021 run. Overall pretty cool. It has two Intel gigabit Ethernet.

Reminds me of the guys who submerged everything in oil.

You set the bios to always turn on when power is back and use the switch and you just unplug and plug it from the wall

Erm what the sigma this is a shitposting thread
smokebuddy@lemmy.today 5 months ago
was intended to be a meme based on the “are you a nerd test” where half the questions were about “are you on a PC with no case”, while my PC is running with no case

My pc can run modern games more or less but only if I remove the side panel which prevents the voltage regulators on my graphics card from getting so hot it overheats the vram.
