Did you read the article? These displays are meant to be used by medical staff, non medical staff get the same basic office displays you see in corporate IT. And no they are not the same displays with a different badge; it says right in the article what their certifications are and what metrics...

Agreed, the Youtube RGB gamer aesthetic is played out AF. I'm currently using a PC-9F here and feature wise and cooling its good enough but would love to see Lian Li return to form and produce something actually good looking that isn't just a ploy to maximize surface area for glass and RGB to...

It is broken though. You can hardly move a system across the room with full sized GPU without fear of it ripping it self out the PCIE slot, cooling sucks, space is inefficiently utilized, ect, ect. At some point you just need to brake compatibility with ancient standards that no longer serve...

Agreed, its a nice looking industrial design and one of the few cases that isn't ITX doesn't need a glass side panel, and RGB to "look good". Fractal are pretty the only other game in town that isn't making garish, ugly AF "gaming" boxes.

They went through a lot of trouble to design a custom motherboard, GPU, and case to leave all kinds of improvements on the table. There are so many form factor and cooling improvements that you could make when you are essentially braking ATX compatibility. Since power is going through the board...

Kinda figured they weren't able to keep them fully utilized on their own but you think a company like IBM with as much capital they have and being so close to research side of things they could have been a player in the foundry game had they played their cards differently. In hindsight seems...

Does anyone know why or have a link to a story as to why IBM sold off their fabs? IBM has always been doing stuff like this and from my casual readings on TSMC at lot of the advantage the have no is due to their close relationship with schools pursuing cutting edge fabrication techniques the...

In regards to the NPR test the track that is the easiest for me to pick out is the purely vocal Susan Vega track. Its by far the most simple track and one that original engineers behind the MP3 standard used to test against. 320 and lossless on that track both sound "good" to me but if I go with...

Whatever sounds best to you. Both are pretty basic delta simga DACs so there isn't going to be much difference from a technical point of view.

Headphones have been weird game for me. $100 headphones vs. $100 speakers, yeah headphones 100%. Anything much beyond that though its not that cut and dry $350 headphones vs. $350 speakers and I'd rather have a set of KEF Q150s which regularly go on sale for $350 than any of the $300 headphones...

Probably back in the day but 20+ years later I doubt there is much you can do to optimize things. That said I'm pretty sure LAME is still in active development.

Don't spend money on this overpriced BestBuy level shit. Build your own mesh network with Unifi or other pro level gear. It dosen't have to be (and shouldn't) the latest bleeding edge Wi-Fi standard, buy APs that use established and vetted standards at whatever price to performance you need and...

Pretty silly, and kinda pointless but oh so very cool. I may end up getting this..... I would be really cool if there as audio VU meter option but the E-ink is probably too slow to be useful for that.

How many Skittles did they have to melt to make one of these I wonder?

Adopting bleeding edge Wi-Fi standards is never a good idea. Regardless though this category of network hardware is always overpriced and there are more flexible solutions out there for less money that are likely more reliable and are going to be supported far longer. Unifi is just one solution...
