@iGolf: No trolling. Get an SSD, they are amazing.

@Bear Jew: The hybrids are a good compromise as a stopgap measure until full size SSDs are available. The (much better) alternative is to keep your OS and Apps on an SSD and your data on a HDD but that is fairly hard to manage effectively for the computer illiterate.

yeah, i have two HD's on my desktop, an SSD and a super big one. so far, everythings been saved on the ssd lolol

Actually, I'm pretty sure that I have a dedicated graphics card. I'm running two 24" 1080p monitors that work pretty well majority of the time and have recently ran recent games on medium settings without much of a problem (Diablo 3 and Call of Duty Black Ops)



Also, I'm wondering if it's worth upgrading to a newer but cheap graphics card (sepdning $100 or less hopefully?) or will the difference will be too subtle to see an improvement?



It sounds like SSD HDD's are unanimously supported by ftp regs But for me to see an improvement doesn't that mean the HM and the postgreSQL database has to be on the SSD itself? And since my PostgreSQL is already 108GB, so I would need a 256GB SSD minimum to store the database and run HM and things from there, am I right?

Technology can be very confusing at (most) times for me.

Last time I checked desktops seem to be very good value for the money these days with all the touch screen win8 laptops and tablet/hybrids coming out...so maybe I should just deal with the problems now and save up for a new desktop?

Thanks again for the help guys, it's very appreciated.

you should search a little about postgreSQL. My db was also that big, but that was due to 80gb being a copy of files as backup or some ****. Anyway I could delete those 80gb without any issue.

I'm just curious when people ask these kinds of questions. What exactly do you expect in an answer?
11-15-2012 , 10:56 AM
for some it's easy for others a bitch
11-15-2012 , 12:43 PM
The current 100NL games are unbeatable. Stay away.

Of late it's been less populated than the 100NL. I have to imagine that's going to flip though before too long.

After calling her yesterday, I just got a voicemail from Linda Olson in the SDNYC DOJ office

"Administrator will be assigned or appointed before or by Jan 1, 2013, he or she will then set up rules for the administration of the petitions process to get your money back."

At least we have some sort of timeline?

Unless you want to play 3D games on higher quality than you do currently, forget a new graphics card - I wouldn't expect any difference whatsoever for 2D desktop-type applications like poker / HEM.

How Postgresql gets configured can have significant performance effects, one common problem was if it was set up to write a log file by default, in which case you get both a performance hit and massive log files in your postgresql folders (might be the problem that curve had). I don't have any up to date links for configuring postgres, but HEM forums have stickies and threads on all that stuff.

Thanks a lot again. I'll look into the issue at the hem forums and see if I can improve it. (if not ill just delete the entire database completely and reinstall everything... (The last choice but always seems to do the job)
11-17-2012 , 07:41 AM
yeah that was mine issue beaucoupfish.

There's some irony that this thread is only starting to fall off the front page now that FTP is actually back up!

bumt!
11-18-2012 , 11:46 PM
