Rough Sea from NCL Escape in Caribbean on December 15, 2023

This is a view towards the west out the balcony door of Stateroom 9152 on December 15, 2023, during some relatively rough sea conditions on board the Norwegian Escape. It is somewhat peaceful... It is just raw 4K60 video shot with a Sony A6700, with no editing or processing. It is using the built-in microphone. 🔴 Please subscribe for more content like this!

How To Use the BIOS FlashBack Feature on ASUS Motherboards

H3vvpATO_PE | 30 Jan 2023

How To Use the BIOS FlashBack Feature on ASUS Motherboards

This video shows how to use the BIOS FlashBack feature on ASUS motherboards. This video shows the ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming WIFI II motherboard, but the procedure is basically the same for any ASUS motherboard that has the BIOS FlashBack feature. It is extremely important that you download the correct BIOS for your specific motherboard and that you rename the BIOS file to the correct name for your motherboard. Note: If your system will already POST, you don't need to use this method. It is much easier to use the EZ Flash 3 procedure inside the BIOS Setup program.

How to Pick the Best AMD EPYC 9004 CPUs for SQL Server 2022

JZmlznB-wnY | 10 Nov 2022

How to Pick the Best AMD EPYC 9004 CPUs for SQL Server 2022

The new Zen 4 AMD EPYC 9004 "Genoa" server processors offer a significant performance boost over their predecessors, and they will be excellent choices for SQL Server 2022. They have a 14% IPC uplift and higher base and boost clock speeds. This means that raw single-threaded CPU performance should increase by 25-30% in most workloads. AMD EPYC 9004 has up to 96C/192T with twelve channels of DDR5-4800 memory, 128 lanes of PCIe 5.0 support and 64 lanes of CXL 1.1 support. This family also has AVX-512 support which SQL Server 2022 can leverage to help Columnstore queries in batch mode. Early Geekbench scores provide more evidence of how much more raw CPU performance Genoa has. SQL Server 2022 will also get a substantial benefit from platform improvements like DDR5 and PCIe 5.0. ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 0:00 Intro 0:41 Zen 4 Generational improvements 1:08 Genoa clock speed increases 1:46 AMD EPYC 9004 platform improvements 2:28 Preferred AMD Milan processors 3:04 AMD EPYC 9004 initial SKU list 4:11 Secret decoder ring for AMD EPYC 9004 names 5:10 Best AMD EPYC Milan SKUs for SQL Server 6:45 Best AMD EPYC Genoa SKUs for SQL Server 8:27 Intel Xeon Platinum 8375C Geekbench score 9:07 AMD EPYC 9374F Geekbench score 10:27 Bonus Chorizo footage! 🔴 Subscribe for more content like this SOCIAL =============================== 📝 - BLOG: https://glennsqlperformance.com/ 🐦 - TWITTER: https://twitter.com/GlennAlanBerry 👥 - FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/glenn.berry.92 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glberry/ Host, Video: Glenn Berry

How to Enable Intel QAT Backup Compression in SQL Server 2022

qeziSrXsE8Q | 23 Oct 2022

How to Enable Intel QAT Backup Compression in SQL Server 2022

This video describes and demonstrates how to enable Intel QAT Backup Compression in SQL Server 2022. This is a new feature in SQL Server 2022 that lets you use Intel QAT backup compression for compressed database backups. Intel QAT backup compression has two modes, software mode and hardware mode. Software mode does not require any specialized Intel hardware and is supported in SQL Server 2022 Standard Edition. Hardware mode does require QAT capable hardware and is only supported in in SQL Server 2022 Enterprise Edition. Whether you have QAT capable hardware or not, enabling Intel QAT Backup Compression is very easy (as shown in the video). There are three main steps: 1. Install the latest Intel QAT drivers and restart SQL Server 2. Run an sp_configure command and restart SQL Server 3. Run an ALTER SERVER CONFIGURATION command and restart SQL Server I have a blog post that reinforces this video: How to Enable Intel QAT Backup Compression in SQL Server 2022 https://glennsqlperformance.com/2022/08/25/how-to-enable-intel-qat-backup-compression-in-sql-server-2022/ ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 0:00 Intro 0:16 Initial configuration 2:08 Installing the Intel QAT Driver 4:19 Enabling Intel QAT Backup Compression in SQL Server 2022 9:57 What is the benefit of Intel QAT Backup Compression? 13:23 Outro 13:40 Bonus Chorizo content! 🔴 Subscribe for more content like this Links to Amazon are typically monetized on my channel (affiliate links) and may return a commission of sales to me from the retailer.

How to Flash the Gigabyte Z690 AERO G DDR4 with Q-Flash Plus

This video shows you how to use the Q-Flash Plus button to flash the BIOS of a Gigabyte Z690 AERO G DDR4 motherboard, even if no CPU, GPU, or RAM is installed. This technique will also work on a fully assembled system, so there is no need to remove all your components to use this procedure. This feature is useful if a more traditional BIOS update (using the regular Q-Flash BIOS utility or the @BIOS Windows utility) failed. The Q-Flash Plus procedure may also be valuable in the future when Intel Raptor Lake processors are released, since they probably won't work in this motherboard without an updated BIOS version.

Secret Lab Magnus Desk Review

Secret Lab Magnus Desk Review

This video shows the details of how to assemble the Secret Lab Magnus metal gaming desk and what my long-term impressions are after owning one for several months. This is a sturdy, well-made desk that is easy to assemble (especially with two people). The desk weighs 93 pounds by itself, and the box it arrives in is 117 pounds total. It is pretty sleek looking, and the magnetic cable management features are very useful. I liked this desk so much that I recently bought a second one. My main criticism is that I wish they offered a model that was 72" wide. This would give you more room to have a tower PC on the desk. ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 0:00 Intro 0:17 What is this video about? 0:55 Description of the Magnus desk and accessories 2:15 Detailed specifications of the Magnus desk 2:27 Looking at the component parts of the desk 3:18 Attaching the four legs 3:41 Attaching the mounting blocks for the rear cross member 4:09 Attaching the rear cross member 4:52 Installing the cable management tray 5:09 Flipping the table over (it is heavy) 5:24 Attaching the rear cover 6:00 Installing the Mag Pad 6:21 Looking at the completed desk 6:50 I wish the desk was a little wider 7:28 What the system looks like now 8:26 Bonus Chorizo footage 8:44 Outro 🔴 Please subscribe for more content like this Corsair 5000D Airflow Tempered Glass Mid-Tower ATX PC Case - Black https://amzn.to/3ruIGXS Better Homes & Gardens Square 4-Cube Bookcase (White) https://amzn.to/3GpX0oU Corsair K100 RGB Optical-Mechanical Gaming Keyboard https://amzn.to/3otF9aB Corsair MM800 Polaris RGB Mouse Pad https://amzn.to/3ruetIq Corsair ST100 RGB Premium Headset Stand https://amzn.to/331e2vQ Elgato Wave:3 Premium USB Condenser Microphone https://amzn.to/3sk2AUI Elgato Wave Pop Filter https://amzn.to/3HzG94a Elgato Wave Shock Mount https://amzn.to/3HryBk5 Elgato Wave Mic Arm https://amzn.to/3J5RJob Links to Amazon are typically monetized on my channel (affiliate links) and may return a commission of sales to me from the retailer.

How to Flash the Gigabyte X570 AORUS Elite with Q Flash Plus

mVxS7DkIEnk | 22 Nov 2021

How to Flash the Gigabyte X570 AORUS Elite with Q Flash Plus

This video shows you how to use the Q-Flash Plus button to flash the BIOS of a Gigabyte X570 AORUS Elite motherboard, even if no CPU is installed. This is very useful if you have bought a new Ryzen 5000 Series CPU that won't work in this motherboard with an old BIOS version.

SQL Server Diagnostic Memory Queries

PzqdUXq6sAk | 20 Sep 2021

SQL Server Diagnostic Memory Queries

Microsoft Data Platform MVP Glenn Berry demonstrates a set of eleven SQL Server Diagnostic Memory Queries that help you understand your memory usage in SQL Server. Memory usage in SQL Server is often poorly understood. These queries show you how to measure your memory usage to determine whether you are under internal or external memory pressure or both. They also help you understand which databases are using your memory and what indexes, queries and stored procedures are driving the memory usage. Finally, there are several queries in this set that help you find possible candidates for SQL Server data compression, which can be used to reduce your memory usage. These queries will work on SQL Server 2012 and newer. They will also work on SQL Managed Instance.

How to Use CrystalDiskInfo

In this video I demonstrate how to use CrystalDiskInfo, including its advanced functionality. This open source utility is extremely useful for discovering detailed information about the storage devices in your system. This includes magnetic hard drives, SATA NAND SSDs, PCIe NVMe SSDs, and Optane SSDs. You can see detailed information about drive model numbers, temperatures, firmware versions, interface type and bandwidth, and S.M.A.R.T. monitoring data. This lets you easily detect common problems, such as having a PCIe 4.0 drive connected to a PCIe 3.0 slot, or having a slot running in x2 mode rather than x4 mode.

How to Flash the MSI MEG B550 Unify-X BIOS with the BIOS Flash Button

This video shows you how to use the BIOS Flash button to flash the BIOS of an MSI MEG B550 Unify-X motherboard, even if no CPU, RAM, or GPU is installed. This is very useful if you have bought a new Ryzen 5000 Series CPU (Vermeer) or and upcoming Ryzen 5000 Series APU (Cezanne) that won't work in this motherboard with the BIOS version that came from the factory. It is also handy if you have had a BIOS flash failure with another method. This technique will also work on a fully assembled system, so there is no need to remove all your components to use this procedure. This situation is happening to a number of people with new Ryzen 5000 Series processors that require a newer BIOS version than was available when the motherboard was manufactured. This feature can also be useful if a more traditional BIOS update (using the MSI M-Flash utility or the MSI Dragon Center utility) failed.

HP Pavilion TP01-2066 Desktop PC Review

PA7CQPbrB3o | 18 Jun 2021

HP Pavilion TP01-2066 Desktop PC Review

In this video I review the HP Pavilion TP01-2066 Desktop PC that is being sold by Office Depot and Office Max. This small OEM machine has an 8C/16T AMD Ryzen 7 5700G Zen 3 APU that is the star of the show! It also comes with 16GB (one DIMM) of DDR4-3200 CL22 RAM and a 256GB M.2 PCIe 3.0 x2 NVMe SSD. This APU does not go on sale to the retail market until August 5, 2021. It has similar (but slightly lower) performance to a more expensive AMD Ryzen 7 5800X CPU. Having decent integrated graphics means you can build a functioning system without having a discrete GPU. I take a look at the interior of the machine and do a partial disassembly. I also run a number of bench marks to show the performance of the stock system compared to a system with two sticks of RAM (running at 1066 MHz) in dual-channel mode.

This Walmart Gaming PC Is a Good Deal!

This Walmart Gaming PC Is a Good Deal!

In this video, I review, benchmark, and modify a HP Pavilion Gaming – TG01-0023w gaming PC that is sold by Walmart. Walmart calls this machine the "HP Pavilion Gaming R5 1650 Super, 8GB/256GB Gaming Desktop Tower". https://www.walmart.com/ip/HP-Pavilion-Gaming-R5-1650-Super-8GB-256GB-Gaming-Desktop-Tower/943933730 This machine is a good match for 1080P gaming, since it has an NVIDIA GTX 1650 Super GPU. The CPU is a 7nm Zen 2 6C/6T Ryzen 5 3500 that is also well-suited for 1080P gaming. If you can find one of these HP Pavilion Gaming R5 1650 Super, 8GB/256GB Gaming Desktop Tower machines at a brick and mortar Walmart location, you will be able to get it for $599.99, which is actually a great deal. This Walmart Gaming PC performs quite well in its stock configuration, but it is also pretty easy to modify for better performance and more flexibility. In the video, I add more RAM, install a larger capacity M.2 SSD, install more SATA SSD storage, install a GTX 1660 Ti video card, and install a faster Ryzen 5 3600X CPU, and benchmark the results. This video is not sponsored, and I bought this machine with my own money. ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 0:00 Intro 0:16 Tour of the stock system 1:06 Benchmark results from the stock system 6:18 Disassembling the system 7:26 Running Cinebench R20 after RAM upgrade 8:36 Comparing GPUs 9:07 Upgrading the M.2 drive 9:35 Upgrading the CPU 12:37 Fully assembled modified system 13:53 Benchmark results for fully modified system 16:07 Final verdict and conclusions 🔴 Please subscribe for more content like this!

Coyotes in the Back Yard!

FlGTxTjYw6k | 11 May 2021

Coyotes in the Back Yard!

We were taking our two miniature Dachshunds out back to do their business when we spotted two coyotes just outside a basement window. They were busy hunting (and catching) a small rodent, so they didn't notice us. I have never seen coyotes this close in broad daylight. They appeared to be a mated pair with a pregnant female. The male might have a slightly injured rear leg since he was limping somewhat. I didn't see the coyotes as a threat, they were just hunting and minding their own business. It does make me think about being even more careful when we take our dogs outside in the fenced back yard. 🔴 Please subscribe for more content like this!

Dr DMV for SQL Server 2019

Dynamic Management Views and functions allow you to easily see exactly what is happening inside your SQL Server instances and databases with a high level of detail. You can discover your top wait types, most CPU intensive stored procedures, find missing indexes, and identify unused indexes, to name just a few examples. This video presents, demonstrates and explains a complete set of diagnostic DMV queries that you can easily use to detect and diagnose configuration and performance issues in your SQL Server instances and databases.

How to Flash the Gigabyte X570 AORUS Elite WiFi with Q-Flash Plus

How to Flash the Gigabyte X570 AORUS Elite WiFi with Q-Flash Plus

This video shows you how to use the Q-Flash Plus button to flash the BIOS of a Gigabyte X570 AORUS Elite WiFi motherboard, even if no CPU is installed. This is very useful if you have bought a new Ryzen 5000 Series CPU that won't work in this motherboard with an old BIOS version. This technique will also work on a fully assembled system, so there is no need to remove all your components to use this procedure. This situation is happening to a number of people with new Ryzen 5000 Series processors that require a newer BIOS version than was available when the motherboard was manufactured. This feature can also be useful if a more traditional BIOS update (using the Q-Flash BIOS utility or the @BIOS Windows utility) failed.

This is an unboxing and review the GiM KB-28 RGB Case fan kit. This kit includes three 120mm white RGB case fans, one fan hub, one RF remote, one SATA power cable, one addressable RGB connector cable, and all the necessary mounting hardware. I spend much of the review explaining what all the buttons on the RF remote do.

Getting Too Greedy in World of Tanks!

VZmkELltiso | 28 Mar 2021

Getting Too Greedy in World of Tanks!

This is a replay with my commentary from World of Tanks on the Malinkova map in a Tier 5 French BDR G1 B heavy tank. I get two kills, damage six tanks and get 2845 hit points of damage, which is about one third of the total enemy team. This is a pretty good game in a Tier 5 tank! I end up getting knocked by an M10 RBFM tank destroyer hiding in the woods, mainly because I get too greedy trying to kill a Russian KV1 heavy tank. BTW, I was an actual tank commander of an M60A1 RISE\Passive tank when I was in the Marines. Some of what I learned from that is helpful in the game, but the game is not really a simulation. I played the game at 2560x1440 resolution (2K) with all of the graphics options turned up to their highest settings. I recorded the replay on my gaming machine using Open Broadcast Studio (OBS). I edited and rendered the video at 3840x2160 resolution (4K) in Camtasia 2020 on my main workstation. The main point of this video was learning how to use OBS to record a game with audio commentary. ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 0:00 Intro 0:55 Climbing the hill in the east 4:08 Using the windmill for cover 4:28 Putting the hurt on a Russian KV1 4:44 Killing the KV1 5:08 Damaging an American T1 Heavy 6:07 Doing something you should never do in a real tank! 6:28 Beware of tank destroyers in the woods! 7:30 My tank gets knocked out 8:10 Outro 🔴 Please subscribe for more content like this!

NUMA Node Balancing in SQL Server 2019 Standard Edition

xba1bsfFeh4 | 25 Mar 2021

NUMA Node Balancing in SQL Server 2019 Standard Edition

In this video, I describe some problems with NUMA node balancing that you will run into if you install SQL Server 2019 Standard Edition on a machine that exceeds the Standard Edition license limits. I show how to diagnose the problem and some different ways to correct the NUMA node imbalance. Ideally, you would not install SQL Server 2019 Standard Edition on a machine with more than the lesser of 24 physical cores or four sockets. If you or someone else has done this, you will need to understand how to identify and correct the problem. Unfortunately, the SQL Server setup program does not warn you about this or correct the problem by default. This testing was done on a one-socket system with a 64-core AMD EPYC 7763 processor that had Simultaneous multithreading (SMT) enabled, so it had 128 logical cores.
