would want to make a network that would be up scaled to cover an area of 130000 meters sq and handle 100-200 connections at one given time these nodes would be located outside along a street or on top of buildings Would transferring all this data cause issue's on the network ? or would that...

I Have also found this device for the same price the PINE64 (has way more RAM) https://www.pine64.org/

Hey there Guys, Just throwing some idea's around at the moment but i wanted to start prototyping a wireless mesh network using the Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 H5. Was wanting to know if this device would be ok to use if i hook up a Antenna to it still looking at different protocol's to use to...

iv been running 2nd gen i3's and i5's sandy's at the moment for the past year and they can keep hold up for gaming they should for CAD i use them at work but its paired with an GT 730 but ill rather have an xeon about to do a xeon build and will be doing some benchmarks when it gets here. im...

- Asking on behalf - so i got a P7H55-M for free with no cpu, was thinking of putting in a i5 750 can get one for about 30usd but i was looking around on the net and seen the xeon x3440 for the same price and it HT's to 8 core and can fit in my socket so its look like a good buy. would i...

thanks for the great information ill be sure to get an SLBBA one. oh i see i don't shop that much on Ebay they always wanted the world to ship it to new zealand so having another place to find pc parts is great ! oh i see so it would be as good as a 2nd/3rd gen i3 ? thats not to bad i just...

thanks for the reply mate and the info on the mobo! I think ill go with the X5460 just need to hunt one down first! found one one Ali express for cheap as seems to be already modded too but iv never ordered a CPU from them before tho (link is below) I can't find any X5460 locally in my...

please note that the X3220 is an LGA 775 and the X5450 is a LGA 771 so i would have to do a little mod to get the X5450 working and please don't tell me to do i new build i got most of the parts for free and can pick up an xeon for 40 NZD =D

Hey there Guys! so yesterday i got a few old PC's for like 10 buck NZD and low and behold i find a P5Q Pro upon starting my research on the MOBO I heard that it can take an xeon if you mod the BIOS (which i havnt done before so should be fun) i thought i would ask you guys what xeon should i...

thanks for the help guys i don't think ill be going ahead with this one

actually the CPU is this one https://ark.intel.com/products/28018/64-bit-Intel-Xeon-Processor-3_40-GHz-2M-Cache-800-MHz-FSB only a single core

yea i have mate. I'm making what i call the "command" center in my shed =D still un-sure if i should buy it tho. whats your guys take on the PC/sever worth the buy or just junk ?

ok that fine i thought that might be the case given its running at 1.86 ghz so it would be usable for surfing the net, movies running a sever on something like arma 3 or cs go ? Please note im getting this old sever for something like 45 NZD which would be something like 30 USD its an old...

i already have a rig so it would basic be used by my GF to play games and watch movies. if the xeon it comparable to a 1st gen i7 when shouldn't it be fine ? like people are still gaming on duo core or is this xeon worst than a duo core ?

With regards to the 80% gains i meant against my current CPU from what information i could look at i should see a 60% + gain in processing power the i5 2310 isn't the greatest of the i5 line up back then. I mainly play GTA5, ARMA 3, CS GO, LOL and BF 1 and afew other games but i play about 60...
