Thanks for getting back to me! 

The system is built and OPNsense is installed on a little ITX 9900K. I have an Intel 10g NIC for the device too. I think it's total overkill but hopefully, it should run for ages and not give me any problems. 

I am set up with Comcast DSL at my house. It's rated for about 600Mbps down and 120Mbps up. It's not great but it's what I can get in my area and the price is nice at $55 per month. 

I don't like the Comcast router/modem even though it's high-performance and free. It's WiFi6 and has never failed once, but it broadcasts the xfinitiywifi signal for all users to piggyback on my network, which is the real reason I want to turn it into a bridge.

As for my network requirements, it's pretty simple. I don't need a VPN or anything like that. However, my work laptop is quite aggressive and talks to everything on my network. I was thinking about setting up a VLAN so my work laptop is completely isolated from my home network. I guess I would need to buy a managed switch for that?? Right now I setup a guest account on my WiFi and I connect my laptop to that. I think it's fairly well isolated but that laptop has fangs 

Hey Guys! I've used consumer-grade routers for the last 20 years and I'm just now diving into this madness 

I decided to go with OPNsense. It looks like they provide many more updates than pfSense. I built my first router but haven't given it internet yet. I'm going to put my Comcast modem/router combo in bridge mode and run this bad boy as the DHCP host. 

Any tips or advice?

I'm drinking the Kool-Aid myself. 

My 3090 died playing Cyberpunk so I decided to pick up the A770 and check it out. Obviously it's not a contender for the top Nvidia cards, but it doesn't pretend to be either. I appreciate the value of this card right now but I really love that fact that it's getting noticeably faster every few weeks. 

I have big plans in store for overclocking and I just picked up a second A770 so I can brutalize one and let it ride the lightning 

The ARC card looks amazing for the price and it's just the start. I am excited about this GPU and I am looking to grab one as soon as it's available again. Anyone out there have one?

Hey keyboard nuts!

My wife is about to take a hammer to my current mechanical keyboard because of the late night typing. I need a recommendation of a silent mechanical keyboard, something similar or quieter than a rubber dome one.

As for the budget I'd like to stay in the $75 range if possible...

Team Group has a new mask out, what do you guys think, would you wear it? 

Hey Guys!

I have been using my smartphone for review pictures, but I am continually fighting it and I want to try something new. I really don't know anything about cameras, but I want to try out a simple pint and shoot. I have been looking at cameras on eBay and I was just going to randomly grab something around the $100 price range, but thought it would be a good idea to reach out first. I was looking at the Sony DSC-W800, it seems like a good piece of hardware for the price.

I am looking for something that takes amazing pictures (mostly macro), is easy to use even for a complete noob, and is also cheap AF....that's all Any help for this noob? Want to trade me a camera for some computer hardware?

Team Group has as a huge selection of innovative RGB incorporated products, and on September 22 their product line is getting even bigger.

Nice, I didn't think about it in the way that you could also use this to essentially replace a busted VRM, even if you are not interested in extreme overclocking.

That's exactly right! I have also seen cards with damaged PLL, 5V, and 3.3V rails...all of those broken voltage regulators could be replaced with this device. It has lots of applications outside of extreme overclocking!

Very nice presentation! If my work bench skills were bit less sloppy I'd be seriously thinking of how many dead cards on ebay might be saved with this. And the wife would be asking "Why are you getting another card for a computer U don't even use?" LOL

 

Seriously,a very nice write up that made things easy to understand and explained what I was looking @ very well.:thumbs_thumbup:

Thank you! And yes...my wife would say the exact same thing...with a strong eye-roll tossed in for good measure

Elmor recently started taking orders for the AMPLE 20A power card. It’s a simple little single-phase VRM that can be used to replace a broken VRM or simply overcome that pesky OCP/OVP. The most common potential usage would be for a GPU memory rail. However, with an output voltage from 1.0-3.4 V it could be used for many different applications.

I obtained a test sample of this new device and I intend to put it to the ultimate test. I have an RX 580 GPU with a damaged memory voltage rail, but otherwise the GPU is in perfect condition. The plan is to solder on the AMPLE power card and observe the impact on the memory overclocking. I know what the card was capable of before the memory VRM died, so it’s the perfect test case for this little device. So follow along as I put this thing to the test and find out if it’s capable of delivering sufficient power to 8 GB of GDDR5.

The AMPLE Device

The device ships in an anti-static bag with the 6-pin connector added in as an accessory. This gives you the flexibility to power up the AMPLE from any qualifying voltage source you desire.

Product Specification

• Output voltage adjustable 1.0-3.4 V using the on-board potentiometer (range can be increased by adding your own potentiometer)
  
• Nominal input voltage 12 V (functional from 4.5 V up to 16 V)
  
• Max output current 20 A (thermally limited). Active cooling may be required to achieve high output current.
  
• Efficiency at max output 91.5% (3.4 V, 20 A, 750 KHz)
  
• Switching frequency selectable between 300 KHz and 750 KHz
  
• OVP (+20%), OCP (24A) and OTP (Tj = 150*C)
  
• Output voltage can be monitored and adjusted using the EVC2 VMOD1-header
  
• Ships with a PCIE 6-pin power connector which can be soldered on by the user
  
• Switch 1 OFF = 750 KHz switching frequency
  
• Switch 1 ON = 300 KHz switching frequency
  
• Switch 2 OFF = PSM = Power Saving Mode, higher ripple but lower loss at low loads
  
• Switch 2 ON = CCM = Constant Conduction Mode. The PMIC is always regulating to the best of its ability, for the tightest possible voltage regulation. In some cases, for example with this project at 3.0V+, that will create a high loss in no-load or low-load situations.

There is one switch on the device which acts as a mode selector. There are a total of 4 different combinations you can set, which change the output delivery settings.

For controlling the voltage there are multiple different methods you can choose from. To make things simple, there is a potentiometer on the power card for direct control. For more advanced control, you have the ability to integrate the device with an EVC2 module using the vmod connection.

Mounting the Power Card

Before you just hastily solder on the AMPLE device, you should take the time to power it on and make sure it works. I would suggest powering it up and setting the desired voltage before you attempt to solder it on a GPU.

The underside of the AMPLE has power and ground planes. In my particular case I won't need these connections so I decided to insulate them with a few layers of Kapton tape. This is an unnecessary step, but in my case there were a few components on the card which were extremely close to shorting on the AMPLE device.

I chose to mount mine with 0.8 mm copper plate. I kept the plane-to-plane distance as short as possible. Furthermore, I always prefer to make my ground connections on the front of the card after where the main connection is.

In the picture below you can see both ground connections come after the memory plan connection. In my testing this provides the best realized MHz whether it be core or memory external VRM replacement.

Test Setup

The overall goal is to compare stock PCB memory overclocking with AMPLE power memory overclocking. To make the test consistent, I will use the same load voltage for both test conditions. The test methodology is to overclock memory and record the passable frequency in Fire Strike GT1. I will start at 2280 MHz, increase +10 MHz until it becomes unstable

• PowerColor RX580 8GB Golden Sample
  
• Z490 test platform
  
• AMPLE VRM on memory rail
  
• Memory IC: Micron D9VVR
  
• 1625 MHz strap timings copied to 2000 MHz strap (Most efficient timings possible without diminishing returns on frequency)
  

In order to get a realistic look at the voltage response of the device, I have placed voltage test points (TP1-3) at various distances away from the main inductor. During the load tests, I will also be conducting thermal tests of the mosfet heatsink. Ambient temperature for all tests around 24c

The voltage read points are as follows:

• TP1 = AMPLE power voltage at C10 cap
  
• TP2 = GPU plane voltage at solder connection
  
• TP3 = Memory IC voltage at MLCC cap on back of card, at least 100mm distance from AMPLE Vout solder connection
  

Test Results

Voltage droop is the enemy of external VRM mods. It’s important to know exactly where the voltage droop occurs because it can narrow down the cause. The voltage test point results indicate that the droop is not caused by the solder connection. The voltage droop is present at the C10 capacitor so therefore it’s coming directly from the AMPLE VRM. This makes me happy because the solder connection is relatively perfect, but it’s mildly concerning to see the AMPLE being stressed under load.

Regardless of any droop, the card was still able to pass FS GT1 test at the highest possible memory frequency. There is effectively no difference between the stock VRM and the AMPLE VRM for this test application.

The temperature reached a peak at the end of GT2 and was still climbing. With the Fire Strike test, GT3 is CPU based so it had a cooldown period. The max temp of around 50c seems reasonable but further testing may be needed. Sustained loads of 1hr might show a different result.

SW1 Test results proved inconclusive. Disregarding experimental error, there was effectively no difference in the realized MHz or voltage response.

Conclusion

Overall I am extremely pleased with this little device. It performed exceptionally well and the end result is that I was able to achieve the same overclocking performance as the stock PCB. The AMPLE single-phase power card has been validated for benchmarking purposes.

In terms of the switch options, my expectation was that CCM mode with 750 KHz would be the optimal configuration. The switch test results showed that the various combinations didn't have any noticeable effect on realized Mhz or voltage response. The 10 mV voltage droop is a mild concern because it’s coming directly from the AMPLE, however, it did not affect the overall overclocking result.

With a price tag of just $20,, it’s an absolute must-have tool for extreme overclockers. My RX580 is the perfect use case. The card was effectively dead and useless, but the mighty little AMPLE device brought it back to life and it still holds gold in TIme Spy. Even if the price was tripled, I would still recommend it because of its potential value.

This was just my first test, stay tuned for more tests to come.

Wow, really nice! This is a great tool and very useful, thank you! I am often testing different versions of W10 for benchmark efficiency, this makes it nice and easy to grab any one I want.

Ok guys, anyone out there able to help me setup and optimize Threadripper 3970X? It looks like some people are getting it up to 1 million PPD...which seems like alot for a CPU??

I did a bit of googling and it seems there are some tweaks that need to happen to get the max out of this thing. I read some stuff about 'slot' settings for core/thread count but I am totally clueless.

Also, can anyone give me a really quick summary of how this scales with overclocking? For instance, how much system memory does it use and what the score increase? Overclocking CPU? Mem? I've been in the professional XOC world for some years now but never touched folding until yesterday...I know nothing.

Just a heads up @ENTERPRISE , your team ID has a typo in the OP.

 

Thanks for setting this up!

Good catch, I let it munch last night then saw this a few minutes ago. I swapped teams and now it's working again

I have never folded a day in my life, but I have a rig I can setup and try this out I might need some help from the folding pro's...

 

Nice, but what RES is that at ?

All basic mode... 1920x1080 with 60Hz

The bench automatically loaded in a window, which I have no clue what size that is. I did nothing but install and run on a dirty v1909 W10 install.

Bone stock run with absolutely ZERO tweaks or OS optimizations.... This is just a simple 9900k on Z170 with XMP memory and a stock 2080Ti KP. It looks like the score is higher than it should be, bummer this bench is so inconstant.

I am getting setup to play with this bench again. Looking forward to helping out with the testing and seeing if we can figure out the how it scales.

My biggest complaint is that this bench cannot be run in offline mode, and requires a huge download.

Oh that's really odd. I only did a quick run and I don't remember what my config was. I will have to play more and nail down how this bench works.

 

Hang on lol, how is your score like double mine ? Out of interest did you limit your cores in Ryzen Master when running ? @mllrkllr88

A few things here. Firstly this bench is very inconstant in terms of run-to-run score. Run the bench 5 times and you will see a big variange. I saw a big gain from disabling SMT, so that's something you can try.

I ran a quick one using RhreadRipper and stock card, so I am guessing the score sucks... We need more runs to compare to

The madness begins! I am excited for the new platform and cant wait to start playing with it.

It looks like the winner has been announced, congrats!

December is almost done, good luck everyone!!

Similar to the launch of Ryzen 3000 series, the newly released Threadripper 3 series introduces greatly enhanced memory overclocking capabilities. To test out thees new overclocking capabilities, Corsair sent us a kit of their popular Vengeance LPX DDR4 memory modules. Using the new Threadripper 3970X CPU, we will evaluate the performance of this memory and investigate its strengths and weaknesses. Originally intended for Intel platforms, the Vengeance LPX will be put to the ultimate compatibility test on the TRX40 platform.

Since they were founded in 1994,

CORSAIR has grown from pioneering the high-performance DRAM market into one of the world’s leading providers of high-performance PC peripherals and components. CORSAIR offers a complete range of products to equip gamers, enthusiasts and e-sports athletes, including mechanical keyboards, precision gaming mice, wireless headsets, high-performance components that gamers use to build gaming PCs, and the CORSAIR ONE fully-integrated gaming PC. With a company-wide commitment to quality, innovative design, advanced features and high performance, CORSAIR products have won thousands of media and industry awards, earning their place in gamers’ hands and PCs following years of development and engineering by a team dedicated to building great products they themselves would want to use. -Corsair

Designed for high-performance computing and computer enthusiasts, Corsair offers a truly dizzying array of options. The Vengeance LPX memory modules come in densities of 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB.

In terms of frequency and latency options it starts with the humble 2133 MHz CL13 and goes all the way up to the mind-boggling 5000 MHz CL18. All told, there are 25 different frequency and latency options to choose from. When it comes to kit combinations, Corsair doesn't disappoint there either. The Vengeance LPX comes in 18 different density configurations ranging from a 4GB single stick all the way up to a 128GB kit composed of 8 x 16GB sticks.

Take the already monstrous product line and multiple it by four, as Corsair also offers the Vengeance LPX in four different colors consisting of white, black, blue, and red.

Today we are evaluating the 4 x 8GB kit of 3000MHz CL15 memory, in black.

Below is a screenshot of Thaiphoon Burner, which is a free tool that allows one to read the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) firmware of the DRAM. The SPD information is critical in determining how the stick will perform and how the computer will recognize it.

As the Thaiphoon Burner screenshot shows, this specific kit of memory is composed of Samsung B-Die ICs. Each memory module uses a total of 8 ICs, all of which are located on only one side. As you might know, Samsung B-Die has become synonymous with high frequency and tight timings. Overclockers, gamers, and system builders alike all flock to memory composed of Samsung B-Die ICs. They have become the gold standard to which all other memory ICs are compared.

That being said, this is the lowest XMP bin of B-Die we have ever seen. We theorize that this kit is running the OEM version of B-Die, which is seemingly different and doesn't have the aforementioned attributes for overclocking. Later on we will explore the overclocking capabilities so follow along if you would like to see more.

[ATTACH=JSON]{"alt":"Click image for larger version Name:\tHeading - Packaging and Product Tour.jpg Views:\t0 Size:\t8.0 KB ID:\t2872","data-align":"center","data-attachmentid":"2872","data-size":"custom","height":"64","width":"850"}[/ATTACH]

Packaging is often overlooked. It serves the function of safely shipping the product, but also as a first impression of the overall quality. Corsair ships the Vengeance LPX in a simplistic box and clam shell design.

Inside the box, the memory modules are safely tucked away in two plastic clam shells. It’s certainly not an elaborate packaging, but it is effective and ultimately saves you money in the end.

The outside of the box tells us that this memory was designed for Intel platforms with the Intel XMP branding and logo's. This might pose an issue because we are testing this memory on AMD Threadripper 3.

Our first look at the memory we see the all-black aluminum heat sink. The overall size is quite low profile and doesn’t protrude much beyond the actual PCB itself. The memory module has a lightweight feel in hand but the aluminum feels sturdy.

[ATTACH=JSON]{"alt":"Click image for larger version Name:\tCorsair Vengeance LPX - Product 3.jpg Views:\t0 Size:\t2.05 MB ID:\t2909","data-align":"center","data-attachmentid":"2909","data-size":"custom","height":"460","width":"613"}[/ATTACH]

Samsung memory has been known to produce moderate heat for memory. Within the XMP 2.0 voltage limit of 1.50v, the typical heat output is just a few degrees Celsius above ambient. Although the heat sink is on the small side, we believe it will be very effective at dealing with the nominal heat output.

[ATTACH=JSON]{"alt":"Click image for larger version Name:\tCorsair Vengeance LPX - Product 4.jpg Views:\t0 Size:\t1.03 MB ID:\t2910","data-align":"center","data-attachmentid":"2910","data-size":"custom","height":"348","width":"621"}[/ATTACH]

The styling is subtle but makes a definite statement. Our review modules have a classic glossy black appearance which should make them match other system components.

The potential upside to low-profile memory heat sinks is that they will not interfere with the CPU cooler. This is something that first time builders and beginners often overlook, but tall memory heat sinks can conflict with some large aftermarket CPU air coolers.

First lets examine the memory by using AIDA64 Cache and Memory Benchmark. Specifically speaking,

Memory bandwidth benchmarks (Memory Read, Memory Write, Memory Copy) measure the maximum achievable memory data transfer bandwidth. The code behind these benchmark methods are written in Assembly and they are extremely optimized for every popular AMD, Intel, and VIA processor core variants by utilizing the appropriate x86/x64, x87, MMX, MMX+, 3DNow!, SSE, SSE2, SSE4.1, AVX, AVX2, and AVX-512 instruction set extension. –AIDA64

In the chart below, we compare the four different memory speeds and how they affect the overall system performance. As you can see, the first overclocking test case was the clear winner here. Keeping the memory timings fixed by the XMP profile and adjusting the frequency to the max proved to the be best case for all three AIDA64 tests. The results show that AIDA64 clearly favors frequency on this platform.

[ATTACH=JSON]{"alt":"Click image for larger version Name:\tGraph - AIDA64.jpg Views:\t0 Size:\t109.3 KB ID:\t2890","data-align":"center","data-attachmentid":"2890","data-size":"custom","height":"431","width":"952"}[/ATTACH]

Next up is Geekbench 4. This benchmark utilizes multiple different tests warped into one benchmark, so it’s a great analytical tool to evaluate memory performance. Specifically speaking, it:

Includes updated CPU workloads and new Compute workloads that model real-world tasks and applications. Geekbench is a benchmark that reflects what actual users face on their mobile devices and personal computers. –Geekbench

The Geekbench 4 test results parallel the AIDA64 ones nicely with a small difference. In this case, raw frequency overclocking was not the clear winner. Looking at the overall score, the overclock test 1 and overclock test 3 were nearly tied.

[ATTACH=JSON]{"alt":"Click image for larger version Name:\tGraph - Geekbench 4.jpg Views:\t0 Size:\t115.5 KB ID:\t2892","data-align":"center","data-attachmentid":"2892","data-size":"custom","height":"465","width":"971"}[/ATTACH]

Next, we will examine the performance using a few of the memory benchmark tests offered in the SiSoftware Sandra suite of benchmarks.

SiSoftware, founded in 1995, is one of the leading providers of computer analysis, diagnostic and benchmarking software….Since launch, SiSoftware has always been at the forefront of the technology arena, being among the first providers of benchmarks that show the power of emerging new technologies such as multi-core, GPGPU, OpenCL, OpenGL, DirectCompute, x64, ARM, NUMA, SMT (Hyper-Threading), SMP (multi-threading), AVX512, AVX2, AVX, FMA3, NEON, SSE4.2, SSE4, SSSE3, SSE2, SSE, Java and .NET. –SiSoftware

For both of the tests we ran in the Si Sandra bench marking suite, we found that the combined higher frequency and tighter timings was best.

Next we will take a look at two very popular 3D-rendering benchmarks. Specifically, we will look at how the different memory profiles effect the scoring in the Time Spy Extreme CPU score, and Fire Strike Physics Score. Both of those benchmarks are designed to give a real example of 3D performance, but we are focusing on the CPU system performance parts of the test only.

Across the board we saw an improvement in the scores from memory overclocking. This was somewhat an unexpected result because on Intel platforms the gain from memory overclocking in both of those benchmarks is quite small or nonexistent.

For those interested, here is a table showing all of the hard benchmark numbers from our testing. All of thees figures are represented in the graphs above, but we will give you the hard numbers as well.

Overall there's a lot to love about the Corsair Vengeance LPX. From the simplistic buy tasteful heat sink design, to the staggering array of product options, this memory has something for everyone. While many modern computer builders might flock to RGB memory, the always-popular glossy black design is timeless.

We were pleasantly supervised to find Samsung B-Die lurking under the heat sink. However, once we got into overclocking, we soon realized that there was not as much overclocking headroom as we would have expected. From an overclocking perspective we did manage an increase of 533 MHz beyond the XMP frequency, which is a good touchstone for Samsung memory modules.

With an Newegg price tag of $149.99 they are certainly not the cheapest option available in their class, but they might be the coolest. In terms of competition the G.Skill Sniper X retails for around $115 for the 32GB kit and is running 3000 MHz CL16-18-18. Further competition in the 32GB, 3000 MHz memory field is the Ballistix Sport LT for around $150.

With Corsair's legendary company history backing them, and given that thees our test sample was equipped with samsung B-Die IC's, we feel that this kit is an easy win. The modules would make a great addition to any gaming or performance orientated system out there.

Lastly we wish to thank Corsair for providing this memory kit for review !

My 2080Ti desperately needs that PSU for so it can be a dedicated GPU PSU for LN2 GPU sessions. If I win, I will certainly post pictures of it in use
