@Shades I don’t know what weed you smoke, but mine doesn’t link up with productivity like that.

@hawk I’m more concerned about performance from

”client requests shit” -> “server goes and gets it from db” -> “shit gets back to client”

so NPCs do nothing there sorry bud. Solid effort.

Water blocks have been a thing for a while for GPUs. Earliest I remember is a waterblock for the 10 series gpus

i think he means its about time someone made a water block for that card

Fuck yeah man. Good luck with the build! Only critique I have is that GPU, AMD ain't lookin' too hot there sadly Rest of it is sick though.

Yea. I agree on the GPU choice, but as a Linux primary user, I just can’t justify an Nvidia card until the pull their head out of their asses with EGLStreams.

this is the GPU from my old build. I’ll upgrade once I hear good things about Navi (or not... in which case I’ll have to do some thinking).

@Mr Majestic

Ohh then don't even sweat the GPU choice, I forgot you were a primary linux dude. Yeah, absolutely solid choices then. Hopefully AMD has a high-end Navi card and I can finally ditch nvidia and make the switch permanently too.

What sort of $$$ are we looking at here?  I recently bought an I9 but if half of what the internets saying about this new AMD tech is true I may diverge from my rampant Intel fanboyism. ;D

It’s gonna be 550 USD (ish) and basically is always a step ahead or behind the i9-9900k. If you already have an 8thgen+ i9, it’s probably not worth the side-grade for you, but for those who have been waiting to upgrade and get faster RAM, this is an INSANE number of cores for a consumer chip at that price point.

it depends on your workload? Do you do lots of stuff that will use the cores? Maybe side-grade time. Do you have some INSANE PCIe bandwidth usage? Maybe side-grade.

other than that stick to your i9 since you already own it.

that said, this thing is the future and I’m super stoked on it.

my brain is too small to handle this, i think ill stay with google sheets for this one

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I mean... wine works on OSX. Most of ArmA should be fine provided you have a DXVK-compatible Vulkan driver.

also @Strikke OSX with KVM and PCIe passthrough is a life-saver if you NEED OSX for like... work reasons. Works especially well if you have integrated graphics or a second card to use for the VGA for the host pre-child startup. QEMU is a decent manager for this. Took me like 10 mins to get my RX 590 passed through and running near-native speeds in OSX. I never use it because I don’t need it for iOS dev but it’s still pretty cool.

totally not EULA friendly as far as apple is concerned... but sorta ethical if you own a recent MacBook.

keep in mind to run the latest version of OSX your cpu has to have the 256-but vector register instruction set (AVX2)

But really. BattlEye was purported to work on the “native Linux” ports from BE. I played Oly once on it when the versions were the same for like a day.

makes me wonder if there’s a way to get the Winblows version to use the “native” BE.

to answer @MAV, I do literally EERYTHING ELSE in Linux so it’s annoying to have to reboot and halt everything else to play ArmA. I’d play a lot more casually if it didn’t require shutting down and switching to ONLY doing ArmA stuff. I can develop, test, etc. for ArmA on Linux, but live servers won’t work Because BE.

my brain hurts from reading this

We robbed him easily over 10 times

@Millennium miss your voice bud

Millennium is puss bitch who loves kisses on the neck

I used to use XFX exclusively... Rma'd 2 cards, one I burnt out over locking, other fan failed.. Never had an issue with rma

FUCK YOU YETI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
