Need a couple of leds and i got myself a nice build :)
dkong - 19:31 (19-11-2013) Just believe in yourself and practice daily.
Leftie - 18:27 (19-11-2013) i don't think i can throw that accurate
dkong - 17:49 (19-11-2013) 23 millimeter per microsecond
Leftie - 14:50 (19-11-2013) how hard should i throw them?
bananaSkill - 14:24 (19-11-2013) duck tape 20 ssds together and throw them in your case.
Leftie - 12:40 (19-11-2013) but then again what kind of case would even fit all those drives XD
Leftie - 12:40 (19-11-2013) maybe it is usefull for workstation kind of idea like people who do really heavy 3d animation with firepro cards etc. and need a lot of storage for raw files
dkong - 00:13 (19-11-2013) 64 gb non-ecc is always a bad idea since the chance of corruption becomes almost 1.
If you have the ability to spend this kind of money on hardware it makes no sense at all to make a do-it-all box like this, with more than 2 GPU's AND big/complex storage solutions. Gaming means desktop OS, desktop OS means no sensible storage solution anyway.
The SAS controller chip is probably at least acceptable and maybe even supported in VMware etc bla bla, but a serious controller has own dedicated RAM and a battery.
Maybe there's something I am not getting about needing 4 GPU's and 22 SATA ports on one board though.
Leftie - 23:50 (18-11-2013) i think it has an onboard controller (don't know if its as good as a dedicated one) and you save pci(e) slots and still run quad sli/crossfire which btw is a bit strange on a z87 chipset as it only supports x4 x4 x4 x4 if i remember correctly and yes only 32GB memory non ecc
dkong - 18:03 (18-11-2013) Nice mobo but the SAS/SATA is a bit bullshit. With this amount of storage devices you want something with a separate controller and server chipset/ecc mem.
