| tripleclones | hey all | 16:35 |
| tripleclones | any recommendations for *cheap* GPU's that work with three monitors and Ubuntu nicely? | 16:36 |
| popey | PING Azelphur ! | 16:36 |
| Azelphur | ooo, this my jam :P | 16:36 |
| Azelphur | tripleclones: what's your use case? | 16:37 |
| diddledan_ | I want your monitors, Azelphur | 16:37 |
| Azelphur | diddledan_: I sold all the old ones already :P | 16:37 |
| diddledan_ | nono, the new ones :-p | 16:37 |
| Azelphur | hehe | 16:38 |
| diddledan_ | your setup looks totes amazeballs | 16:38 |
| tripleclones | Azelphur, basic - IDE, Remote Desktop, text nothing too intensive | 16:38 |
| tripleclones | but would like to play Team Fortress 2 and the like from time to time on one screen | 16:39 |
| tripleclones | but certainly not 3D modelling or such like | 16:39 |
| Azelphur | tripleclones: I haven't actually tried, but I think AMD is generally a bit nicer for multi monitor than nvidia, however AMD is lower graphics performance | 16:39 |
| tripleclones | Azelphur, I saw this | 16:40 |
| tripleclones | http://www.ebuyer.com/451860-sapphire-hd-6450-1gb-ddr3-flex-dual-dvi-hdmi-pci-e-graphics-card-11190-12-20g | 16:40 |
| diddledan_ | yeah IIRC nvidia binary drivers limit the number of outputs you can have active (although they might allow 3?) | 16:40 |
| tripleclones | but didn't know if I was being too tight :) | 16:40 |
| Azelphur | diddledan_: they allow 3, using it right now. :) | 16:40 |
| diddledan_ | \o/ | 16:40 |
| Azelphur | tripleclones: I have a feeling that although that card has 3 ports, it may not be able to make use of them all at the same time | 16:40 |
| tripleclones | it says it can in Eyefinity mode | 16:41 |
| Azelphur | Then you should be ok, although as I say never actually done triple head on AMD before | 16:42 |
| tripleclones | but I don't know if Eyefinity is going to be OS specific? | 16:42 |
| Azelphur | shouldn't matter, it was only about the number of CRTcs on the card, which apparently is 3 | 16:42 |
| diddledan_ | I don't really get the pount of eyefinity - native support is better IMO because when you maximise a window with eyefinity (based on really old evidence) it uses all screens instead of just the one screen it's on | 16:43 |
| diddledan_ | point* | 16:43 |
| tripleclones | Azelphur, what GPU are you using? | 16:43 |
| Azelphur | diddledan_: the goal is to work with games that don't have multi monitor support, tricking them into thinking it's all one big display | 16:43 |
| Azelphur | tripleclones: I'm using a GTX 980. | 16:43 |
| diddledan_ | aah | 16:43 |
| diddledan_ | I'm not really a gamer - I use gfx and multiple monitors for productivity purposes | 16:44 |
| Azelphur | it can drive up to 4 monitors, as can pretty much everything kepler, but I think nvidia may limit it to 3 in software for Linux. | 16:44 |
| tripleclones | yeah thats more then I'm willing to spend atm :) | 16:44 |
| tripleclones | shame on nvidia though | 16:44 |
| diddledan_ | the new amd driver system sounds clever - same kernel module for both the closed and open source varients | 16:45 |
| tripleclones | so this would be in my budget | 16:51 |
| tripleclones | http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/amdradeongraphicscards/amdr7370series/r7-370p-2sf5.html | 16:51 |
| tripleclones | sounds like the sort of direction I should be looking yeah? | 16:51 |
| Azelphur | tripleclones: yea have a go with an AMD card, I guess you can always return it | 16:56 |
| ali1234 | tripleclones: just get nvidia, it actually works | 16:57 |
| ali1234 | nvidia doesn't limit the amount of outputs you can use with a single card | 16:58 |
| ali1234 | they limit the amount of outputs you can use when you have two cards running your monitors | 16:58 |
| daftykins | nvidia \o/ | 17:23 |
| daftykins | except for the GTX 970 debacle, that was immoral | 17:23 |
| diddledan_ | interesting, an MS employee just stated in a keynote at devintersection conference that "guis on the server are poison" | 17:42 |
| tripleclones | diddledan_, MS have been moving that way with the core versions for a little while now | 17:44 |
| diddledan_ | yeah it's interesting that he's effectively saying that they were wromng | 17:44 |
| tripleclones | idea being you have all the gui tools on a client :) | 17:44 |
| daftykins | i think i read you have to install all of it in most cases, configure, then remove | 17:45 |
| daftykins | which is frankly laughable | 17:45 |
| tripleclones | we have some at work, I dont know how they were installed but if I want to make changes to DNS for example I have to access a Remote Desktop with the DNS GUI tool and use that | 17:47 |
| tripleclones | I'm told I can do it through powershell but no one can tell me how :) | 17:48 |
| diddledan_ | https://twitter.com/MrASingh/status/657884094831960064 | 17:48 |
| tripleclones | and I'm not wasting any time learning | 17:48 |
| daftykins | why do you consider it a waste? | 17:52 |
| tripleclones | because I'm not meant to get involved with our windows environment at all | 17:56 |
| tripleclones | and I would just end getting involved in lots of things I shouldn't | 17:57 |

| diddledan_ | I suppose these days if you're a startup you've got two choices: 1) get acquired. 2) get so big so quick that none of the big boys can afford you | 21:23 |
| diddledan_ | seems pretty much every company goes for option 1 | 21:23 |
| diddledan_ | *sigh* apple have made the most money in corporate history | 22:39 |
| diddledan_ | (in one year) | 22:39 |
| zmoylan-pi | i was going to say what about the catholic church :-P | 22:39 |
| daftykins | do you find it amusing that Apple's software for Windows (iTunes and Quicktime) are now the reasons for the most exploited Windows PCs in the US? :D | 22:40 |
| daftykins | replacing Java | 22:40 |
| diddledan_ | oh dear. lol | 22:40 |
| zmoylan-pi | AND adobe?? wow | 22:40 |
| daftykins | ikr | 22:40 |
| daftykins | it's almost cunning planning | 22:40 |
| daftykins | i really do wish i could travel back in time and invest in Apple :< | 22:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | just means it will be a longer fall to my mind | 22:41 |
| diddledan_ | it's nearly 250billion this year and ~50b profit | 22:42 |
| diddledan_ | that's an awful lot of money to wade through till you run out | 22:42 |
| zmoylan-pi | a lot will be wasted on accountants :-) | 22:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | and lawyers trying to prove it's not money | 22:43 |
| diddledan_ | if they pocket it they will prolly be able to coast for some time | 22:43 |
| prd | i gona sleep. god bless poland | 22:45 |
| diddledan_ | o_O | 22:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | there's been no sign of that so far... | 22:45 |

| diddledan_ | yup | 23:07 |
| daftykins | popey: hey what's with you being disgusted all the time? :D always looks like a ragequit XD | 23:12 |
| popey | eh? | 23:14 |
| popey | oh, i just set my quit message to that | 23:14 |
| popey | couldn't think of anything better | 23:14 |
| * popey will change it | 23:14 | |
| daftykins | :) | 23:14 |
| popey | fixed | 23:14 |
| daftykins | yaaay | 23:15 |
| daftykins | it was amusing because i think me and the fellow volunteers were slating Apple again over in -discuss and off you popped :> | 23:15 |
| daftykins | which reminds me, we should rescue shauno! | 23:15 |
| daftykins | zmoylan-pi: you speak Irish! ;) | 23:16 |
| diddledan_ | does "bundle into a car boot with a bag over his head" count as "rescue"? | 23:16 |
| daftykins | yep | 23:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | i can make a few phone calls... :-) | 23:17 |
| daftykins | :D | 23:18 |
