[1569.66 --> 1572.72] over coax adapters and
[1572.72 --> 1573.50] because they're not
[1573.50 --> 1575.12] carrying any signal in
[1575.12 --> 1576.58] modern houses generally
[1576.58 --> 1578.68] speaking anymore you can
[1578.68 --> 1579.70] actually get away with
[1579.70 --> 1581.80] you know running ethernet
[1581.80 --> 1583.90] over those and they're a
[1583.90 --> 1585.06] very clean signal so you
[1585.06 --> 1585.80] get better performance
[1585.80 --> 1586.20] that way.
[1586.58 --> 1587.32] That could be worth
[1587.32 --> 1587.90] looking into.
[1588.20 --> 1590.26] You know I got a couple
[1590.26 --> 1591.54] of spots that have coax
[1591.54 --> 1592.10] pre-run.
[1593.00 --> 1593.82] That's interesting.
[1594.14 --> 1594.32] Hmm.
[1594.66 --> 1594.94] Hmm.
[1595.06 --> 1595.78] I don't know Alex.
[1595.86 --> 1597.80] Maybe one day in the
[1597.80 --> 1598.42] future.
[1599.24 --> 1600.90] Brad wrote in about a
[1600.90 --> 1603.54] killer MOBO with QuickSync.
[1603.54 --> 1604.68] Yeah he's found the
[1604.68 --> 1608.16] ASRock J5040 ITX board.
[1608.50 --> 1609.74] It's a mini ITX form
[1609.74 --> 1611.00] factor with a quad core
[1611.00 --> 1613.92] Pentium chip and it has
[1613.92 --> 1615.54] QuickSync version 605.
[1615.54 --> 1617.96] Now he wrote in about
[1617.96 --> 1619.70] this one because of
[1619.70 --> 1620.50] energy usage.
[1620.64 --> 1621.96] This one idles he says
[1621.96 --> 1624.48] between 10 and 15 watts
[1624.48 --> 1624.86] only.
[1625.42 --> 1627.40] But it also has four
[1627.40 --> 1628.50] SATA ports which I
[1628.50 --> 1630.56] thought hmm this would
[1630.56 --> 1632.38] make a really nice sort
[1632.38 --> 1633.54] of NAS motherboard
[1633.54 --> 1634.54] potentially because you
[1634.54 --> 1635.60] know four hard drives
[1635.60 --> 1637.74] a small enclosure low
[1637.74 --> 1639.58] power draw QuickSync.
[1640.40 --> 1641.08] You know you're pushing
[1641.08 --> 1642.24] my buttons here Brad.
[1642.60 --> 1643.16] Yeah really.
[1643.16 --> 1643.96] Me too.
[1644.32 --> 1645.06] It looks like a really
[1645.06 --> 1645.74] nice motherboard.
[1645.88 --> 1649.66] Yeah this ASRock J5040
[1649.66 --> 1650.16] ITX.
[1650.96 --> 1651.74] We'll put a link in the
[1651.74 --> 1653.72] in the show notes.
[1654.02 --> 1655.30] But that hardware
[1655.30 --> 1656.16] acceleration that
[1656.78 --> 1658.00] QuickSync boy that that
[1658.00 --> 1658.84] is looking really good.
[1658.96 --> 1660.02] And this you could
[1660.02 --> 1661.28] totally build I bet you
[1661.28 --> 1662.76] for if you had the
[1662.76 --> 1665.16] storage I bet two
[1665.70 --> 1666.40] three hundred dollars
[1666.40 --> 1667.64] to build a nice system
[1667.64 --> 1668.30] with a decent little
[1668.30 --> 1668.70] case.
[1668.88 --> 1669.82] There's some memory
[1669.82 --> 1670.64] around this thing.
[1671.06 --> 1672.82] It's a passive CPU as
[1672.82 --> 1674.80] well so it takes it
[1674.80 --> 1675.70] doesn't need a fan on
[1675.70 --> 1676.18] the CPU.
[1676.92 --> 1678.06] Also it takes a
[1678.06 --> 1679.50] laptop style SO
[1679.50 --> 1680.58] DIM memory.
[1681.32 --> 1682.22] So this thing is tiny.
[1682.34 --> 1682.86] It's got a couple of
[1682.86 --> 1684.46] M2 slots on there for
[1684.46 --> 1685.36] Wi-Fi if you want.
[1686.10 --> 1687.50] So yeah yeah go go
[1687.50 --> 1688.10] ahead and check that
[1688.10 --> 1688.36] one out.
[1688.42 --> 1688.90] That looks like a
[1688.90 --> 1689.96] really really useful
[1689.96 --> 1690.50] little build.
[1690.96 --> 1691.80] Stefan wrote in to tell
[1691.80 --> 1692.72] us about some benchmarks
[1692.72 --> 1693.80] in German that show
[1693.80 --> 1694.72] that the latest AMD
[1694.72 --> 1696.70] desktop APUs are
[1696.70 --> 1698.10] getting idle power well
[1698.10 --> 1700.22] below 10 watts and
[1700.22 --> 1700.72] depending on the
[1700.72 --> 1701.70] motherboard as low
[1701.70 --> 1702.52] as six or seven
[1702.52 --> 1702.92] watts.
[1703.44 --> 1704.16] So it seems like
[1704.16 --> 1704.72] there's something to
[1704.72 --> 1705.42] watch there too.
