Went to The Greatest Race on Earth, snapped over 3300 pictures, absorbed about 77.5GB of storage space, and will be working on a photo gallery and article for you!

I wish I could make it! Hopefully next time though.

For my HEMIWagon, so far it’s been the rear differential swap. Stock unit is a 2.82 ratio, pull your eyes out open diff that has these teeny little axles that have a habit of cracking or shattering at the splined ends. The unit is considered the 210mm differential, and it’s nothing spectacular. I opted to upgrade to a…

This franchise has reeled in how many dollars, and the CGI looks terrible. Is this the actual trailer?

Well, if we’re really going to be pedantic, it’s a sheer top, so not actually topless.

I have zero explanation for this one...

Thanks!

Equinix is actually a client we are starting to work with. We sent some hardware and some guy decided that he wasnt even going to try the equipment we sent down. What a mess that was.

I could never get into the Nikon workflow. I have nothing inherently against Nikon, but I shot a handful of images side by side, and the Nikon images had so much more noise. Stills, not even video. I really just couldnt get over it. Ive just stuck with Canon. My 7D had served me extremely well, and if I could find…

You know what, I expected the worst when I got it. I expected to see ridiculous artifacting, grainy image, etc. When it’s set to 4k, it’s really not that bad. When I say it’s not that bad, I would put it on par with any cell phone that shoots at 4k. The footage is compressed, it has overall bad white balance, and it’s…

So oddly enough, my machine was built to be as physically quiet as I could possibly make it. Part of my job is datacenter break fix, so I understand that most people who think of a server machine immediately think you need earplugs to be in the same room, but my machine is way different.

This is why even companies like AutoCAD offer remote rendering services (AutoCAD has for a few years now).

The only i7 I have is in my laptop.

Streaming video really depends on how it’s happening. Are you running an HDMI cable straight to the TV, or are you just hosting a file share the TV opens?

I tweaked my GPU support list to allow my GTX660 to utilize CUDA in Premiere, so it’s a little misleading, but I haven’t had any issues with monitoring most effects in realtime because it passes off the monitoring to the GPU in most cases. If you’re relying completely on the CPU to monitor and process effects while…

You’d be very surprised. Xeon Phi is targeted for server use for a reason. An application server or high frequency trading server will really benefit from Phi. Premiere Pro, Media Composer or any other video editing software will benefit, but will certainly not show the same level of performance increase.

It was kind of the point of me posting it how I did. I’ve long disagreed with how Gizmodo does their “computer” articles.

Actually no. The Xeon Phi cards require a compatible motherboard to function AND the number of programs that are capable of utilizing them are on a bit of a really small list.

I actually have mine still. Supermicro S2DGU motherboard. Started off with dual 450MHz Pentium II Xeons, upgraded the BIOS and went to dual 700MHz Pentium III Xeons, and there was an overclocking setting in the BIOS that made it good for 733MHz. Maxed it out with 2GB of SDRAM as well.
