    BI build question re: low end CPU

    I can appreciate what you are saying. I have been overclocking for many years (used to be very active on an overclocking forum) and understand the hardware well. I am not concerned. I mostly wanted to see what kind of difference faster clockspeeds would make in terms of BI performance because I...

    BI build question re: low end CPU

    I need the ability to control voltage and clock speed to get the desired performance and power consumption. I have a rack because I run a virtualization lab and other projects and equipment. It made sense to physically organize them this way. I know there's a higher cost but I see it as worth...

    BI build question re: low end CPU

    Ah, ok, good. I have the 1150 build already, this build in its current life is powered off in a closet. I thought about buying prebuilt but giving up on BIOS options and not optimal hardware seems like a waste. I will be looking to buy a 2U case, rails, 90% efficient modular PSU, Noctua cooler...

    BI build question re: low end CPU

    The 55w figure is under a synthetic load (prime95 29.x+, the hot high power versions) so I expect other tasks to consume less (the x265 stability test was in the high 40s). Not all CPUs of the same model are the same, some require much less voltage than others and most are in general overvolted...

    BI build question re: low end CPU

    Hi, I am interested in setting up a PC in my rack for the purpose of camera recording around the house. BI has been recommended to me by nearly everyone so it seems to be the obvious choice. From what I have read, it is able to make use of QSV which is great as I would like to run BI on a 1150...
