So what's the consensus on freesync/g-sync? Are they worth it?
If so, which one is better?
freesync support bit less refresh rates but there is no cost to the manufacturers and its an openstandard.
gsync supports bit more refresh rates but there is a huge cost to the manufacturers (which is passed down to you) and its a proprietary.
If you have nothing, go for freesync. Otherwise, choose depending on what your GPU will be and which company you want to support (morally and financially).
Adaptive sync could be extremely helpful in mobile devices to reduce power usage. The benefit to desktops is basically just smoother playback which is nice as long as it doesn't jack the price up by $200
Intel has given their support for freesync (though iirc right now none of their products support it) thus inherently gsync is going to lose as Intel is bigger than both AMD and Nvidia combined.
Why don't you embrace the minimalistic lifestyle?
Sell this useless "high end" desktop if you only play kiddy video games. Sell those overpriced "gaming" peripherals, those "audiophile" headphones, those gimmick 4k monitor.
All you ever need is a trusty Thinkpad running GNU/Linux. Maybe a cheap mouse for faster browsing.

What is your data recovery plan /g/ if your house burns down?
I have two desktop PCs that are used for gaming. PC 1 has:
>Xeon X5650 @ 4 GHz
>AMD R9 270
>6 GB RAM
PC 2 has:
>i5-2500K @ 4 GHz
>GTX 770
> 8 GB RAM
When playing the same game on each of them with identical graphics settings, PC 1 can play at a smooth 60 fps. PC 2 cannot; it drops down to 20-30 fps or worse when things get busy. Both have the latest motherboard...

>Memeon kek5650
im still surprised this setup can beat the second one tho
>>51823731
6 GB is triple channel so not asymmetric.
Yes, it makes no sense to me that the faster machine (in terms of IPC and GPU power) has lower FPS.
graphics drivers up to date?
>Copyrighted source code is just as dumb as copyrighted music sheets or copyrighted math theorems
True or false?
false. writing source code is like writing a book and there's copyright on books.
Imo music and code make some sense at least
Math does not
>>51823098
There's nothing wrong with copyrighted source code as a whole, indeed there are no two programs completely the same, the problem lies in copyrighting common parts.

No.
This is not a committee for development or research of AI primarily, it is for its control and they explicitly state that they will try and intervene, if it ever is created.
Elon Musk is now a front for the Government in the Tech Industry. Space X is helping NASA, His new battery compound/manufacturing business is partially relies on government funding and Tesla is largely dependent on Tax Breaks (not exemptions) and Government money.

Intended for users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are three ways to try Linux, you can:
1) Install a Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
2) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full Linux experience".
3) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with Linux (not recommended)
If you are serious about switching to Linux and if you have Windows dual-booted (recommended for pure newbies), we recommend you use it exclusively for 2 weeks, and avoid...

Why does /g/ dislike Linux Mint? It seems to add in useful stuff that other distros don't really bother to.
Linux MInt is better for beginners, im using it right now. What are the best DE and WM for Mint?
>>51822030
because they don't get to feel superior when they don't have to install it without a gui and shit doesn't break so they don't have to use the terminal
It does nothing better than Ubuntu.

How the mighty have fallen
He doesn't even know how to install linux
>>51821562
it's not really a problem for him. He doesn't care. Also, he's never installed GNU/Linux.
>>51821586
>he doesn't even know how to install GNU/Linux
installing Linux is kinda tough, even I just go with what the distro ships the majority of the time. Fuck compiling that shit, it's confusing to me with all the modules.
Is HyperThreading placebo?
I notice no difference with it on or off.
>>51821146
for some tasks it improves the speed, for some, it gets worse
>>51821146
Hyperthreading for modern games has no effect, yet. Future games will start to make use of the extra threads, which of course makes your cpu more future proof. Also hyperthreading offers less stuttering during high demanding games like witcher 3
Cannonlake will come without HT.
So yes, it's a meme-tech.
Why can open sores babbies only imitate successful commercial software, yet never have any innovation on their own? I have yet to see an open source software that is fundamentally better than its propietary counterpart.
