| 07:01.08 | brolin_empey | sixwheeledbeast: DS4 as in DualShock 4 as in the PlayStation 4 version of the DualShock game controller? |
| 07:01.21 | sixwheeledbeast | yes |
| 07:05.10 | brolin_empey | OK. Do they use a standard USB connector? I still have two DualShock 1 controllers with an adapter to use them as a USB HID. |
| 07:06.47 | brolin_empey | I still have not gotten around to opening your Mini-ITX link, should do that now. |
| 07:12.42 | sixwheeledbeast | uUSB and bluetooth DS4 works pretty well |
| 07:14.13 | sixwheeledbeast | limited to main gamepad functions only on the bluetooth but everything works on usb gyro/trackpad headphones |
| 07:17.26 | brolin_empey | OK. |
| 07:57.29 | brolin_empey | sixwheeledbeast: I finally opened your Mini-ITX link. All of the CPU cooler, video card, and power supply have fans. How is this computer with multiple fans relevant when I was interested in the MintBox 3 because it is completely solid-state and still has a discrete nVidia GPU? I do not have experience with recent Radeon GPUs but I would not buy another ATI/AMD GPU based upon my experience with them. fglrx for GNU+Linux+Xorg did not support 8-bit colour |
| 07:57.29 | brolin_empey | depth even though both fglrx on Windows and the nVidia proprietary display driver for Xorg on GNU+Linux do. I discovered that limitation because I wanted to run an X server with 8-bit colour depth. This was with a Radeon HD 3650 in a desktop computer; I do not know if the situation is different with the successor(s) to fglrx. |
| 08:00.34 | sixwheeledbeast | fglrx isn't a thing any more for anything HD5xxx and AMD have open source (amdgpu) drivers now. "solid state" wasn't clear enough I have never heard that term used for a "fanless" system. |
| 08:01.05 | sixwheeledbeast | HD5xxxx onwards |
| 08:04.02 | sixwheeledbeast | any system without adequate cooling will just throttle itself you can have good specs on paper but the performance will be nothing like it. |

| 08:26.03 | brolin_empey | I know that fglrx has been replaced, which is why I said that I do not know if the situation is different with the successor(s) to fglrx. If amdgpu and whatever else has replaced fglrx still does not support 8-bit colour depth then I will still avoid AMD GPUs. âSolid-stateâ in electronics means âno moving partsâ. A solid-state computer is necessarily fanless but a fanless computer is not necessarily solid-state because a fanless computer can still |

| 08:37.12 | brolin_empey | Currently my car, which is already aged a decade this month, is newer than the desktop motherboards I use, heh. |
| 08:40.04 | sixwheeledbeast | it's still not a term used like that in pc building. You can get ITX cases that are machined alu with heat pipes. i wouldn't buy any system with proprietary parts that you will struggle to replace, much worst than closed drivers |
| 08:41.50 | sixwheeledbeast | Fans are generally not an issue with the right system you can have them off at idle to mid load. |
| 08:42.10 | sixwheeledbeast | that's if the main concern is sound |
| 08:44.40 | sixwheeledbeast | The amount of issue i have tried to fix on other systems with the Nouveau drvier I wouldn't go near a nvidia card so it works both ways |
| 08:51.20 | brolin_empey | Sigh. Do you realise that I use the same computers for even at least ten years? I like silent computers. I notice the fan noise from my computers. I use the same computers for long enough that I have to replace things due to dead or dying fans. I compared fglrx to ânvidiaâ, the official nVidia display driver for Xorg on GNU+Linux, not to Nouveau. I use GNU+Windows NT instead of GNU+Linux as a desktop/notebook client platform but I use GNU+Linux for |
| 08:51.20 | brolin_empey | <PROTECTED> |
| 08:52.18 | sixwheeledbeast | so closed drivers then |
| 08:55.26 | brolin_empey | Yes, so what? I am not rms. |
| 08:57.57 | brolin_empey | Is it even feasible to use 4k UHD with an open-source display driver? I like 3840Ã2160 compared to 1920Ã1200 or only 1920Ã1080. |
| 09:01.30 | sixwheeledbeast | Sigh if you want. It wasn't clear what you where looking for, I tried to help and give you some options. a lot of "silent builds" are not completely fanless. FWIW I wouldn't get something like a Mintbox it would have to be something that you can get all the components off the shelf as top priority but everyone has other priorities. |
| 09:03.01 | sixwheeledbeast | amd will run 4k multiple displays with the open drivers, slowly the closed and open drivers are merging which is a good thing IMO. |
| 09:06.25 | brolin_empey | The only reason I was reading about the MintBox 3 is because I subscribe to the news feed for the Linux Mint project, which posted a review of the MintBox 3. As I already said weeks ago, I cannot justify spending that much money on a new computer when the fanful Core 2 computers I currently use still suffice for my use case. |
