[FS][US-TX][Local-Pickup Only] Supermicro SC835-Based Ryzen 3700X/128 GiB ECC/Asrock Rack X570-D4U-2L2T - $1800

Price: $1800, for pickup only.

Local Pickup Only. If you want it shipped, let me know, but you'd need to send someone to pack it up and take it to be shipped. I'm disabled and can't lift it or travel with it, which I'm afraid is going to make selling it more difficult. ZIP CODE: 75240.

[Apple Studio Display 2026] Brand New Apple Studio Display 27" (2026) Just Arrived. Tilt and Height Adjust Model. Is the Box Supposed to Bulge?

Please see the photos below. I just got this out of the box. I'll be taking up the damaged shipping and product box with B&H later, but is the actual product box meant to bulge like this?

That doesn't seem like something Apple would ship.

Right now, I'm a bit afraid to open it.

Hello,

So, now that we've had these for a while, I'm curious if anyone has measured the difference in idle power with C-states enabled.

They're disabled in the BIOS by default. It's still not clear whether that's for compatibility reasons or because they just never got turned on.

I'm running TrueNAS on a DXP8800 with 8x 7200 RPM enterprise HDDs, and my system idles around 85 w with the CPU at near zero percent utilization. I'd love to try to make that go down, but I'm not sure what else to try aside from enabling C-states.

Thanks!

Hello, there! I just installed Tumbleweed with KDE (the first time I've used KDE in about ten years, and the first time I've used Tumbleweed in ... ever).

This is an 11th-gen 7w Intel CPU that's supposed to have just a bit more oomph than the Celeron 5095 that went in so many home/small office NASes for a while. I'm planning to set this system up as an always-on tool for software defined radio, so I'd like to maximize the performance that it's got to see how far that will get me.

EDIT: This is the SBC I'm using: https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-h3-plus/

I'm usually a Debian/Ubuntu user, so normally, I'd set the CPU governor to peformance, make sure it had plenty of cooling, and call that good.

On this system, Tumbleweed is using the intel-pstate governor in powersave mode, which I'm happy to see.

However, Tumbleweed with KDE adds a wrinkle that I've yet to encounter: KDE's Energy Preferences. Enabling the Performance mode there seems to be independent of the CPU governor's settings. Is that right?

After all that, some questions:

  1. How do these interact?
  2. What's considered best practice w/r/t the KDE Energy Preferences/CPU governor combo for getting the best performance out of an always-on desktop system (I'm not even letting it sleep as I want to be able to use a remote desktop client)?

Sorry for the absolute noob questions. I'm convinced I should have branched out from Debian, Ubuntu, and XFCE sooner. Thanks for any advice.

EDITED: Typos.
