<mputtr> evenin <nb-ben> if I have both integrated GPU and PCI-E GPU, can I use two monitors on each one of them? <nb-ben> or should I connect both to my PCI-E GPU? <nb-ben> I mean, one monitor on each of them (two total) <terabit> nb-ben: most pci-e gpu’s will let you have dual monitors these days(I know my 550ti does) <terabit> I doubt if your os would run to graphics cards at the same time <nb-ben> I actually have 550 ti <mputtr> then you should be able to use your 550ti to output 2 monitors <nb-ben> I have two 1080p monitors (1920×1080) <terabit> if it could there wouldn’t be a need for virtualizing the hd300 <mputtr> you need another gpu if you want a 3rd monitor <terabit> hd3000 * <mputtr> nb-ben your 550ti will do fine <nb-ben> I see <terabit> my 550ti has 2 dvi and one hdmi <terabit> it should be able to use all <nb-ben> I will not be able to use two DisplayPort cables tho right <mputtr> nope <terabit> (3 monitors) <mputtr> it can only do 2 <nb-ben> I’ll have to use an HDMI or DVI on at least one <mputtr> nb-ben you can only output 2 monitors max for the mid and low end cards <terabit> there are cards that do 3 monitors , you should get those <mputtr> the super high end ones can do it. but those are rare <nb-ben> thank you <mputtr> np <nb-ben> mputtr: the top row is the main display right? <mputtr> terabit your 550ti can’t do 3 monitors simultaneously by itself <mputtr> nb-ben there is no main display <nb-ben> my bottom row lacks DisplayPort 
<mputtr> you just pick whichever you want <nb-ben> only top one has it <mputtr> it’s just how they organize it <mputtr> that’s all <nb-ben> bah guess I’ll have to screw a bigg hole to run DVI through the table <nb-ben> bigger * <nb-ben> drill* <mputtr> there’s no such thing as a “slimmer” port? like the ones w/o the screws? <mputtr> (this i dont know.. just wondering) <mputtr> well if you know how to drill a hole, you’ll be fine then <nb-ben> it’s a masterpiece table I have made lol <MrSparkle> you could cut the wire then try to attach the plug back onto it <MrSparkle> good luck <mputtr> roflmao <nb-ben> as soon as I got out of military I decided I want a huge no-bullshit table <DaveWM> drill 4 smaller holes <nb-ben> made a 4 meter long table <mputtr> because that’s logical, to cut the wires 0.o <nb-ben> out of full wood <DaveWM> overlaying eachother <nb-ben> has no legs, connected to a wall <nb-ben> well, one middle leg <mputtr> support? <DaveWM> to make one ovalish connector, won’t be a big ass round hole <mputtr> what about those triangle thing that you can use for support <nb-ben> I drilled planks to the walls <nb-ben> and set it on it <DaveWM> of course how can a hole overlay another?…. how can nothing touch nothing.. <nb-ben> and added a leg at the center <DaveWM> that’s like half a hole… there’s no such thing… <DaveWM> ah! <mputtr> oh <nb-ben> it hurts me to drill such a beautiful thing <nb-ben> lol <mputtr> i thought that if you wanted a really really leg-less wall, you’ll need those triangular support things <DaveWM> i completely rebuilt my computer desk to accomodate my hardware <nb-ben> it’s like <mputtr> pics <mputtr> ! <nb-ben> you screw planks to the wall <DaveWM> still got more work to do on it <mputtr> upload some pics man <nb-ben> and then you use the planks for support <nb-ben> I will 
<mputtr> lol <nb-ben> it is still not completely done though <mputtr> cool <nb-ben> well I guess some people wouldn’t know how to make it better <nb-ben> I want to add a lower table at the center, to level mouse and keyboard from monitor <mputtr> *shrug* <nb-ben> gonna cover that part with glass I think <nb-ben> so that it’s smooth <nb-ben> though idk yet cause it will make mouse not work without a pad <nb-ben> that + 2 monitors + keyboard + mouse + awesome-but-simple chair <nb-ben> been my dream for a long time lol <mputtr> lol <DaveWM> http://imgbin.org/images/6651.jpg I had to make that cabinet taller by removing the bottom and putting in a thinner pannel, it also slides out like a drawer now to access the pc <nb-ben> and that huuuuuge table, cost me only about $150 to make if I round it up <DaveWM> I plan on actually putting guides on it, I got some strong double action guides, just havent had the time <DaveWM> http://imgbin.org/index.php?page=image&id=6652 there used to be cubbies/shelves above the monitor area, but I lowered the hight so that its just tall enough for my monitors but would support my lcd tv right <nb-ben> I see <nb-ben> that’s actually not a bad idea dave <A_J> Hey nb <mputtr> wow, you smoke while you’re at the computer? <nb-ben> I guess if you put the guides underneath it then you also eliminate the possibility wires would get caught <nb-ben> at least most of it <DaveWM> also had to remove the back of the cabinet, cause my computer case is too deep for this desk <nb-ben> hello A_J <mputtr> and wow.. that’s alotta monitors <DaveWM> antec 900 is a beast for a mid tower <nb-ben> ugh <mputtr> i like my full tower <DaveWM> yeah, the tv is a new addition to my monitors <mputtr> very cool. <nb-ben> just realising my girlfriend flew with my cell phone <mputtr> im happy w/ my dual monitor set up <DaveWM> I wouldnt mind a full tower… not sure where i’d put it… <DaveWM> lol <nb-ben> lol <mputtr> fits under my cheap ol ikea table just fine <mputtr> with 7inches of space <DaveWM> yeah, i’d be fine with dual monitors, the tv is for… watching tv from my pc… the other monitors are just because I happened to have them <DaveWM> lol <nb-ben> I like building my own furniture <mputtr> lol <nb-ben> idk, it just makes me feel good <mputtr> see… i would build my own stuff too <nb-ben> exactly how I want it <mputtr> but…. i dont have a home yet.. just an apartment <nb-ben> yeah apartments are tricky <mputtr> no place to buy and store nice hardware <nb-ben> cause you’ll leave it at some point probably <nb-ben> unless you bought it? <mputtr> otherwise, i’d have a freakin circular saw, and a dremel tool, and all that <nb-ben> mputtr: how big is the apartment? <mputtr> nb-ben and where would i keep something like a circ saw <mputtr> not big enough 
<nb-ben> mputtr: on the wall <mputtr> lol no thanks.. there’s simply not enough space <nb-ben> mputtr: shelf under the ceiling <DaveWM> on the shelf… next to the guest towels <mputtr> do you know hwo much shit i would be getting from my gf <DaveWM> ya know… just to show them you mean srs bznz <nb-ben> mputtr: if your ceiling is high enough, you can build an attic with simple plates <nb-ben> mputtr: or just shelf your walls real tight <DaveWM> I suffer from a serious lack of space myself <mputtr> she bitched and moan bad enough when i had my recurve bow case out in the living room <nb-ben> mputtr: at places that are above your head level <DaveWM> still working out this space to handle my recording equiptment and computer parts and allow me space to work on stuff <mputtr> too bad i dont think i’ll be living there long enough to really make changes <DaveWM> so its mostly all about going vertical, cause I don’t have the horizontal space <DaveWM> shelves cabinets and more shelves… <mputtr> i would go for that <DaveWM> stack and stack until you need a safety hat to safely inhabit the space <mputtr> but yeah… i just dont live in these apartments long enough to really make those changes <nb-ben> mputtr: check this out: <mputtr> watching <nb-ben> your apartment is probably bigger than that <DaveWM> I built a work surface to the right of the computer desk to work on computers, i rebuilt it so that it has a pull out with my midi keyboard under it, also going to add a large pull out for hand tools on it<mputtr> OHH <mputtr> i’ve seen this before <mputtr> very cool <DaveWM> but atm I got it a little too high, noticed that when I was getting my pc all cleaned out, even on my tall bar stool its hard to look into the case <DaveWM> so I gotta redo the legs about 4 inches shorter <mputtr> nb-ben yeah but unlike him, i dont live in the apartment long enough to do that <mputtr> this is more of his living quarter.. and a bachelor’s living quarter <nb-ben> yeah <DaveWM> i used the original legs from the table, but after adding my 9 inches of cubby under it, that made it quite tall <nb-ben> personally <nb-ben> I want to have a crib like that <mputtr> i love how he did his place though <nb-ben> for an office <mputtr> it’s an awesome bachelors pad <nb-ben> to take over the world <mputtr> lol <nb-ben> 
<DaveWM> really standard keyboard height… and i mean music/piano keyboard… is 27 inches, I got that too high, so dropping it all is cool <nb-ben> DaveWM: it relaly varies from person to person <DaveWM> yeah <DaveWM> nb-ben: this is also my bedroom <DaveWM> its horrible cramped <DaveWM> but the computer area looks bad ass… lol <nb-ben> DaveWM: you want to have your monitor height + distance adjustable and your chair’s height adjustable <nb-ben> and then you’re good <DaveWM> I’m still working out the details… I need more room bad <nb-ben> if you give enough adjustment freedom <DaveWM> that’s why I’m consolidating much of the furniture for multiple purposes <nb-ben> lol <nb-ben> I like open spaces <DaveWM> my main interests being having a digital recording studio and working on computers… <DaveWM> if I have space for that, I’ll feel happy with my world <DaveWM> its still lacking a tad, but its just a matter of time… been too busy with work to get any more done lately, but all of what I got has just been done in the past few months… so its good progress <nb-ben> DaveWM: my room used to feel very tight on space <DaveWM> just gotta drop that work counter and add some more shelves in here and possibly some peg board above the work surface to hang stuff on <Arirang> DaveWM, you only need a mattress, a chair and a table <nb-ben> DaveWM: I just bought a few wood plates and set them on the ceiling, moved a lot of stuff there <nb-ben> DaveWM: now I have more space than I can use <Arirang> All other things are extra <DaveWM> yeah… like I said… gotta go vertical <DaveWM> heh <nb-ben> DaveWM: under the ceiling, sorry <nb-ben> DaveWM: and I have a crapload of place for more <nb-ben> yeah <nb-ben> vertical it is, storage shouldn’t be in your way <DaveWM> also, I got so much shit I keep that I don’t use regularly, gonna go through it and actually put some of it outside in storage for more space <Arirang> That way, when the feds come after you, you can leave everything behind without much of loss <DaveWM> so my cabinets will actually be for things I use regularly and not for storing things I might access once a year or when I happen to have a computer that needs that particular part <nb-ben> yes this is how I did it <nb-ben> I am really happy with it <nb-ben> my mom thinks my room looks like uhh <nb-ben> a storage place (idk the word for it) <Arirang> DaveWM, are feds staking out your house? <Arirang> DaveWM, don’t make the same mistake as that fatso Kim Dotcom <DaveWM> if any of you suffer from anxiety or depression, or just that ugh feeling (actually depression)… when your living space isnt in the order you’d like… it can be a major factor <DaveWM> lol, Arirang they should be <nb-ben> why would anyone be after you dave? <Arirang> depression = self pity <DaveWM> I recently did some shit I feel half guilty about… first “bad” kind of hacking I ever did in my life, before that it was always just shit I did for learning or fun <Arirang> nb-ben, I bet people asked Kim Dotcom the same question <DaveWM> also have been through the three strikes with my ISP for copyright infringement and got cut off… and managed to get cut back on… so I think I’m riding a fine line with the law atm <DaveWM> but half of that wasnt my fault, just me being naive… cause it wasnt even my downloads that got me in hot water <Quietlyawesome94> neighbor? <DaveWM> sorta… I missed the first strike… like it got lost in mail or something… the second was some stuff I’ve never heard of.. I was sharing my wifi network with the neighborhood at the time… seemed like th<Arirang> It’s not the downloads that gets you in trouble, it’s usually the amount of data transfer and the uploads <DaveWM> so after that I tightened up security… but that didnt help, cause my parents gave out the wifi address to everybody they know here that they “trusted” <DaveWM> then the third strike came in and we were cut off <DaveWM> was fixing my mom’s friends laptop and took the extra 6 seconds to check her downloads… <DaveWM> and what do you know… there’s the shit that was listed on the notice of infringement that got me cut off <Arirang> DaveWM, I bet the bitch probably was seeding it, that’s probably the reason <Quietlyawesome94> TIP: dont use public trackers <WalterN> ohi DaveWM <Quietlyawesome94> I have gotten on 3 private ones in the last 2 months <DaveWM> so now… since I managed to get cut back on (a guy in tech department said he’s never in 5 years seen anybody get cut back on after the 3rd notice) now my stuff is so tightly locked that even the password wo<WalterN> wait, what? <DaveWM> Arirang: yea she got other people in this area cut off as well <DaveWM> she was seeding and not even realizing it <Arirang> Dumb bitch <Arirang> How old is she? <nb-ben> why do you feel bad about it <nb-ben> nobody will do anything to you if what you say is true, worst case ask questions <DaveWM> here I managed to go years downloading stuff and no issues… a few people use my shit and I get screwed over <Arirang> Yeah, it’s best not to let others use it <DaveWM> so now… you gotta go through me, and its about a 15 minute process for me to add a device to my network now <TuxBlackEdo> what is bitcoin miner? <DaveWM> lol <Arirang> TuxBlackEdo, /topic please <WalterN> DaveWM: http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=26048188 <TuxBlackEdo> yeah thats where i got it from <DaveWM> annoying when I gotta add personal stuff, but at least I feel safe <DaveWM> nice WalterN <Quietlyawesome94> TuxBlackEdo: some sort of stupid virtual currency <DaveWM> a lot of money though <nb-ben> WalterN: I decided I won’t buy that <TuxBlackEdo> Quietlyawesome94, virtual currency? <nb-ben> WalterN: I will probably go with SNB-E <TuxBlackEdo> wtf is a virtual currency? <mputtr> google it <mputtr> plenty of information <WalterN> TuxBlackEdo: its bad assumptions about how money works with computers mixed in and butt tons of fail mixed in <Quietlyawesome94> erm <Arirang> Once again, /topic <WalterN> nb-ben: heh… its just me drolling over stuff… <Arirang> I guess you are free to talk about anything in here, but not that <nb-ben> WalterN: I was seriously considering buying that though <buhman> I don’t know, having some bitcoin wouldn’t be a bad idea <buhman> if deflation is still where it is <TuxBlackEdo> bitcoin is probably a scam <mputtr> http://bit.ly/sbmhRK <buhman> not from what I read awhile ago; <Quietlyawesome94> ^ <WalterN> nb-ben: evidently there is going to be a revised EVGA classified sr-2 motherboard coming with some sort of intel processor revision <Arirang> TuxBlackEdo, you are lucky that none of the ops are awake <Quietlyawesome94> dont click its lemonparty <TuxBlackEdo> Arirang, what did i do? <mputtr> just click the damn link to learn more about it <TuxBlackEdo> is bitcoin a scam or something? <buhman> TuxBlackEdo: no <ra4king> TuxBlackEdo: LOL <TuxBlackEdo> i don’t know what i have done x_x <Quietlyawesome94> no, we just hate bitcoin <nb-ben> WalterN: I don’t really understand what it means except for the explicitly stated <TuxBlackEdo> apparently i am lucky the ops arent awake <nb-ben> (processor revised motherboard) <mputtr> you asked a question that is not worth talkin about <WalterN> heh <TuxBlackEdo>
