**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Aug 17 03:00:04 2019 Aug 17 03:16:06 Why do you want a graphics card at all? Aug 17 03:16:18 * Maxdamantus uses three monitors on integrated graphics. Aug 17 03:17:04 5120×1080 Aug 17 03:17:43 Maybe having a 3840×2160 monitor is significant, dunno. Aug 17 03:21:08 Based on the specifications here: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/75043/intel-core-i5-4570-processor-6m-cache-up-to-3-60-ghz.html , the "max resolutions" must apply to individual monitors, not total output, since my total horizontal resolution is 5120 Aug 17 03:21:46 (those are the specifications for my CPU) Aug 17 03:24:30 note: my monitors are 1920×1080 (HDMI), 1920×1080 (DVI), 1280×1024 (VGA) Aug 17 03:25:20 * Maxdamantus imagines newer CPUs/motherboards would support three outputs without requiring one of them be VGA Aug 17 03:31:42 I still use Core 2 era computers. The video controller integrated on the motherboard is not UHD capable and only has one output for one video monitor. Aug 17 03:32:35 Right, but presumably you're wanting to get something more recent, since you said "somewhat recent" Aug 17 03:35:40 Apparently DFI makes a fanless Nehalem era or later stationary computer that can use the fanless PCI Express video card I currently use but DFI never replied to my request for quantity=1 pricing and I did not spend more time trying to find pricing, such as from a distributor/reseller. Aug 17 03:37:55 I do not need a newer/faster than Core 2 computer but I want a fanless computer and, ideallly, with non-volatile main memory too. Aug 17 03:38:25 Presumably if price is a concern, wouldn't it be more effectively to just buy second-hand parts? Aug 17 03:38:33 s/ly\>// Aug 17 03:38:53 s/ab\>/ly/; s/ely\>/e/ Aug 17 03:40:20 s/mly\>/mably/ Aug 17 03:40:23 I doubt that I could find this type of fanless industrial computer for sale used. I have not even found it for sale new. Aug 17 03:41:09 If you buy parts you can just mix and match things to get what you want. Aug 17 03:42:05 eg, there aren't really any CPUs that are particularly made to be fanless. You just get a passive heatsink and put it into a conventional CPU. Aug 17 03:44:07 It has RS485 and other specialised industrial stuff that I do not need but it is fanless, supports up to at least 16 or 32 GiB of main memory, and can use a “desktop” video card that uses a PCI Express ×16 slot. It has a specially designed metal chassis/case so it can be completely fanless. Aug 17 03:45:33 Okay, but is the motherboard special? Aug 17 03:57:04 The usual components categorisation site used here has a category for fanless cases (though there are only currently three cases in the category): https://pricespy.co.nz/category.php?k=v2229 Aug 17 04:42:52 Apparently they are DFI models EC511-SD and EC511-HD. They are sold as a single product with the motherboard in the case.

Aug 17 04:54:49 Here is one of them on the current DFI Web site: Aug 17 04:54:49 https://estore.dfi.com/index.php/ec510-ec511-hd.html Aug 17 04:54:49 Apparently it sells for around 686 dollars, presumably USD but lots of countries use a currency named dollar, including Taiwan, the home country of DFI. Aug 17 05:01:12 Here is the other model on the current DFI Web site but without any pricing: Aug 17 05:01:12 https://us.dfi.com/Product/Index/127 **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Aug 17 16:18:59 2019 Aug 17 18:37:04 ~beasttweaks Aug 17 18:37:05 methinks beasttweaks is http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Sixwheeledbeast/Scripts Aug 17 18:39:51 can I add a wlan connection with gconftool? Seems there is some connection UUID? Aug 17 22:33:11 Broke my stylus (poor fragile things, they suffer when software is slow). Took a 3D doodle pen, and heat-melded stylus back together. Rough, patchy, bulging like a broken bone, but it works, for now. Cleaned out much of the dust from stylus bay. Aug 17 23:10:35 Temperature of melting for stylus is somewhere under 200°C, or so.
