mnathanihmm.. my synergy setup doesnt seem to work [15:22]
mercutiowhat's it doing?
firewall is one of the first things to check
[15:22]
mnathaniI get the yellow lightning connection on both machines [15:22]
mercutioi think default port is 24800 [15:22]
mnathanitcp or udp? [15:22]
mercutiotcp
so you can telnet to it :
:) even. this keyboard sucks. i am doing stuff on my synergy server, and using keyboard direct, and it's of course a terrible one :
oh, there's a better one plugged in too. hah.
[15:22]
mnathaniworks now
mercutio: thanks
was the firewall rule
@mnathani
[15:27]
BryceBotmnathani: Have you checked whether Windows Firewall is enabled and dropping packets?
1,571 results found. Here's #389 Feb 11, 2014 10:49:08 <mnathani > and you need to have the /48 enabled I assume
[15:27]
mnathaninow there is a slight lag for mouse movement as the surface pro3 is on wifi [15:28]
m0undssurface pros are so nice
how do you like it?
[15:28]
mercutiomnathani: sweet. [15:29]
hmm my power supply seems to have 2x4 pin power supply connectors next to each other, is that the same as the normal 4 pin power supply that plugs into motherboard?
(it's also got the 20+4 adapter somewhere else, .. but 24 + 4 seems to be requried)
[15:36]
.... (idle for 18mn)
m0undsyea, that's common (the 2x4pin) [15:55]
mnathanim0unds: the surface pro 3 is awesome. Loving the 2160x1440 resolution [15:56]
m0undsif one has the little tabs on it or whatever to sort of link the two together; the little tab things typically fit under the raised part of the connector on the cable side.
mnathani: nice
[15:56]
mercutiocool. i haven't done anything with hardware for ages, and i have 3 cheap systems to put together
using old bits etc.
there's quite a lot of ok looking cheap stuff now to upgrade old computers with
like tehre's an asrock motherboard with j1900 quad core cpu, and ddr3, and one usb3 port, that's nearly as fast as core2duo 3 ghz
which should uh be able to upgrade most xp/p4 type machines.
this one is g3258 though
[15:58]

m0undscool
i have an extra motherboard after i got an asrock board that was DOA and was in a hurry and just bought another new board from another mfgr on amazon
i think i might put it in a slim sort of case and put an i5 cpu and maybe 8gb of ram in it w/a 120GB SSD and use it as a steam streaming box in my living room

only part i don't have is the cpu
and the chassis
[16:19]
mercutioerk i spilled thermal paste on motherboard oops
apparently it's not electrically conductive
and trying to get it off is being a bitch
i probably shouldn't have tried to get it off
what socket?
1150?
i'm pretty curious what these g3258 cpus go like.
they're really cheap, haswell dual core no hyper threading
[16:21]
m0undsyea, it's a z87 motherboard [16:23]
mercutioi've never tried z87
i went z77 b85 z97
[16:24]
m0undsah [16:24]
mercutiob85 is so much cheaper than z87
all the z87 boards were hell expensive
[16:24]
m0undsi was using all amd stuff til the haswell board [16:24]
mercutioit may be diff there [16:24]
m0undsthe one i'm using is kinda barebones, geared for oc (gigabyte z87x-oc or something) [16:24]
mercutiobut it's like twice the cost to go z87 instead of b85
well it was
ahh i see
[16:24]
m0undsi think i paid $140 usd for it which was cheap-ish
the asrock one was $160
[16:25]
mercutiothe barebones ones were just as bad as b85
i'm going all asrock
since z77 extreme 4
z77 extreme 4 is pretty nice, as it splits the lanes on the two pci-e x16 slots to x8
most of the cheap new boards want to do x16 and x4
[16:25]
m0undsyeah [16:26]
mercutioand i'm using infiniband, which is x8
and pci-e 2
so it's actually slightly bandwidth starved at x4
[16:26]
m0undscool, infiniband is good stuff
don't see it too often
[16:26]
mercutioit was pretty cheap [16:26]
m0undsyeah [16:26]
mercutioi got 4 cards for something like US $150 [16:26]
m0undswow
nice
[16:26]
mercutiothen it's expensive for cables still
and they're short
[16:27]
BryceBotThat's what she said!! [16:27]
mercutiothat's copper [16:27]
m0undshaha [16:27]
mercutioit does about 13.5 gigabit i think
and it was about 15.8 gigabit with x8
so it doesn't really matter.
it makes nfs fly though
esp. with ssd raid :)

well the computer works fine in spite of the thermal paste, but the monitor started smoking :) [17:20]
