Because 27" and 1080p would make the pixels look like Lego bricks. Try 1440p.

What is this, 2009? 4k or bust.

It's pretty impressive.
There is no reason to have a cd / dvd drive in 2015.

>I have no use for CD/DVD drive in 2015, so you shouldn't use it.
i use a cd drive to make lossless copies of my cds.
But then how would I burn the ISOs on my CDs to play on my PSone?
So my dad hates technology and can't use a computer, but wants something he can browse the internet with. I have a shitty old HP laptop with Windows XP that I could give him, but I'm thinking he'd struggle with anything that isn't a tablet. What do you recommend /g/? Install GNU/Linux? Get a tablet? Windows 98?

You have to be 18 to post here, faggot.

Chromebook.
>>51820959
XP's pretty simple, install Chrome and make sure it's the only icon on his desktop, set the Homepage as his email and make sure passwords are automatically saved for ease of use.

So /g/, please tell me what makes the 1280x1024 monitors attractive ?
>>51820752
It's a monitor and fulfils more of a role than you,OP.

They're not. 4:3 is cancer. Any movie or media is 16:9 these days. Working on spreadsheets on my 21:9 is so cash.
Only to japs because as far as personal computing goes they still use WindowsME
Why does my computer have so many weird, stupid problems after upgrading to El Capitan? Why couldn't they get it right, like they have with every OS release up until this point?
Is it because they started hiring developers who microdose on LSD at work?

they might actually be innovative at apple if they did this
What kind of problems are you experiencing? Mine is working literally flawlessly.
So Christmas is fast approaching and I want to spoil myself. What phone is the best out there that isn't going to break the bank? i.e. S6 Edge.
If the s6 edge costs too much you can always take the poorfag approach and buy an iPhone :')
>>51820713
Well, I don't really like iPhones. I want to stick to Android and I'm thinking the Z5 Compact is the best bet for me.. Was looking at the one plus two but read some bad reviews.
>>51820776
If it was up to me, I'd save a little money and get the z3c simply because it has god tier battery and that's important to me. Coming from a nexus 5 ;_;
What does /g/ think about demonsaw?

Help me, please. This is making me go insane. Can someone tell me how to view like an event log of things/processes/scripts/programs running on my computer in real time as they happen? I don't mean the task manager because this particular problem is something I'm 100% does not pop up on the task manager. In Counter Strike Global Offensive, after a certain while in game, I get COLOSSAL fps issues, going from 120 (I'm on a laptop) down to 20 and lower, and it remains this way for 30 seconds, and then goes back to normal. This repeats what feels like every 4 minutes...

Windows has some logging facility, Linux can let you log even way more (and still play CS:Go).
However, you really just want to record what processes do in terms of RAM / CPU / disk / network usage. A detailed log is so many entries you can't process it anymore without statistics generated with regex and the like.
>>51820431
PS: On Windows, it's the "resource monitor" thingie. Or you use the "sysinternals" ((now bought by MS) software on older versions of Windows.
>>51820431
so there's no way I can see what's even going on when I get the fps issues?
being using pic related for a few days, pretty comfy, I want to go for the $19usd plan, should I? are there any others worth trying before?

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that CD/DVD's are dead?
>>51820251
Are they? I just burnt a dvd to install windows 10 on my new pc, and i booted void Linux on my old laptop with a cd.
Just because you don't use something doesn't mean it's dead.
>>51820453
Why didn't you use USB drives?
>>51820453

Why doesn't Terminal support emoji?
>>51820145
Really
Terminals are shit. The only good thing about them is that there already exists a lot of tools for them.

Does anyone know of good sas controller that can support any sata drive and not just a select few?
why get a sas controller if you intend to use sata drives?
>>51820113
What are you talking about? A SAS controller is precisely for SATA drives.
LSI stuff usually doesn't care.
I've been using LSI controllers like LSI SAS1068 for consumer SATA drives for ages.
I never see any good threads about speakers around here.
Let's have one, post your setups and tell others what you think about it.
On a side note I've been taking a peek at Soundplates, are they any good?
They would be ideal given the design of those things.
Onkyo is pretty good right?
>>51820038
When I have $1000 I spend it on my graphics card that's why.
I bought a pair of ELAC BS 263 for my desk because that's where I listen to music all the time.
So far I'm pretty happy with them.
I really like the design of them, and the sound is excellent.
They're powered by a Musical Fidelity M1PWR connected to an M1SDAC also by MF.
Kind of an overkill, but they seemed to be the best bet around the time where I got them price-performance wise.

Did you just say 800$ dac?
