hi!

Are these dummy HDMI plugs neccessary?

I have some 1080ti rigs prebuilt but not running yet. I don't want to cause any delays by not having these (if needed.)


Any help appeciated! Cheesy

The juniper Srx220 seems like it has all the bells and whistles. A little pricey but I'm sure it does a superior job.

Is ZyXEL USG60-NB any good? $675 Canadian on amazon doesn't look too bad.

Even the USG60 with security bundle,  $871 Canadian.

Thanks for input guys!

I'm just looking for a hard wired firewall I can add downstream from the service provider's modem. No wireless.

Not as technical as some of you guys are so building my own seems daunting.

Is it worth spending $1000-$1500 on this? With a license too.

Wondering what you guys use as a firewall. I know the meraki mx64w has been recommended by people in the past but just looking for something secure, user friendly, remote access and fail-over capabilities.

I'm not a network guy so thanks for understanding in advanced.  Grin sparky

Thanks jmigdlc99.

As long as mining and masternodes are in the books of being reliable with satellite internet, that is good news.

Hey dudes.  Cheesy


I am wondering if anyone has experience with satellite internet minining within the city. How is the signal reliability and latency?

They have not pulled fiber / high speed cable to this area yet. I'm only asking because listing agent mentioned this as we are looking for a warehouse.

I have no experience with satellite so hoping I can get some helpful opinions from ya guys.


Cheers!

Re: Virtual memory and SSD question - Asus270-p / 1080ti

I thought I was going a little over board with the 256gb SSDs. They were only $100 so I'll try a smaller one to save some cash. I only have 8gb ram sticks. I read somewhere 1-2gb per card was sufficient.

For now I'll only be using nice hash but I want to go for stability and performance

That is a good tip on the virtual memory - thank you guys

Virtual memory and SSD question - Asus270-p / 1080ti

Hi newbie here

I am wondering what the recommended paging file size should be - min/max. Is it 2x the ram?

Asus prime z270-p
16gb ram corsair cl14
windows 10
1080ti x 8
256gb ssd

Is my 2 x 8gb ram over kill?

Is the ssd sized appropriately? I want to go for stability and performance. I see people using 32gb usb sticks though...
