I have 16gbs of G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series Ram set up in a 4 x 4 configuration but Windows will only load 8 gbs of it. BIOS detects all 16 gbs, and I have tested each individual stick and they all work fine.
My first thought was to go into msconfig and set the maximum memory to 16384. After a restart Windows refused to get past the boot screen, so I went in through safe mode and unchecked the "maximum memory" and restarted again. This time however windows booted normally and detected the full 16gbs of ram and was using it.
I thought the problem was solved...

You wut?

Which is best, should I upgrade? Currently on Yosemite.
If you're on Yosemite already then going to El Capitan is a no brainer, it basically fixes everything.
>>51290104
Really? I've heard mixed responses, and the reviews on the Mac App Store for El Capitan are like 3/5 stars.

how do i take a screenshot of a virtual console (TTY1). hardmode, no GUI
protip, do not acknowledge that the furry exists and it will go away. Do not give it attention for that is what it seeks.
Why the fuck do you guys like OsmAnd so much? It's a pain to put in addresses.
I'm going back to Google Maps.
>>51290062
I like it because I can use it without having an internet connection.
>>51290091
Enjoy being lost then
The maps are free as in freedom (and also more accurate)
I can't get a response on reddit so can you guys just take a look at this and tell me if there's anything I should be worried about like something being overpriced or bottlenecked?

you won't be getting good oc with this board.
you should go for non-k and a lower chipset.
the 390x isn't really suited for a itx build.
either a lower wattage gpu or blower style/aio watercooler.
****Just my opinions****
Are you overclocking?
1) If not, then you don't need a "k" on that CPU. K just means you can overclock and you pay a premium for it. Get the non-k if you aren't OCing.
2) Unless you have some special need in mind, you really don't need to OC. That CPU is already stronger than any game is going to need. CPUs aren't the gaming bottleneck.
Watercooling is almost always a meme, especially closed loop coolers. Watercooling only makes sense if you're overclocking like crazy and are doing...

>Personally I would go with a bigger case case over an itx case, but you know what kind of case you want better than I
I have that same case.
I advise against it, OP, it's a bitch to work on and it likes to vibrate and make a buzzing sound. Unless you're living in some Japanese capsule hotel you have room for an ATX board in a midtower case, you'll be glad of the extra space sooner or later.

Can this accept ATX form factor parts or not? If so, what size?
>>51290024
I wouldn't be too sure about it. Workstations often take their own funky form factors.
ATX could probably be worked into it, but with these machines you usually want to stick to the motherboards designed for it.
>>51290024
I have a thinkcenter case that looks like that. If I remember right it was some kind of BTX variant. OEMs do that because a.) it doesn't cost much to have a custom design when you're going to order a million copies, and b.) they want to discourage upgraders from using standard parts.
>>51291191
Looking at the original motherboard for that case it appears to be BTX.
Anyone else like running alternative operating systems? I am getting sick of Linux or Windows.
>>51290011
where is the iso for this anyhow?
or is there no pre put together iso like getting RHEL without paying?
do BSD?
your only options (when it comes to OSes) are either some version of Windows, anything that uses the Linux kernel, or something BSD-style

Hi! I recently had to hock my gaming rig due to personal bills, and am stuck using a older low profile system, So I was just wanting to see if anyone on here had a decent low profile GPU for a small price + shipping maybe. Thanks!
>cant keep up on bills
>spending any money at all on a GPU
mate
>>51289843
HENCE SMALL PRICE+ Shipping. I already paid up all my debt with the price I got out of my rig. So I'm looking to spend like 25$ on like a GTX 650 or like a 7750 just to play a couple games with my friends.

What is Java used for? It didn't catch on on the desktop. It's used to make Android apps, but the main use is in business (the "enterprise"). What exactly is it used for? It's been the #1 language in the Tiobe popularity ranking.

Its only good for Runescape
and html5 does that better already
enterprise developers write their enterprise applications in enterprise Java™
enterprise.
>>51289781
Enterprise stuff, University, Android, some desktop apps (which it honestly works perfectly fine for as long as you skip AWT/Swing and use JavaFX), and that.
Who /oldphone/ here?
Anyone else have an old phone and doesn't think they'll upgrade in the foreseeable future?
Pic realted, my Moto /G/

/oldphone/ here.
note 5 --> moto x pure --> nexus 6p --> v10
considering upgrading, can't stick with an old phone for much longer.
I also fell for the moto g meme. But my reason for not getting a new phone is that i am poor. Why wouldnt you want to upgrade from that pos

It's becoming painful
My boss got it into her head that we should all have new computers, so we're getting win10 laptops next week.
How does I win10 without sending data to M$ headquarter-pounders every time I p2p ?
I can't change the OS, but I can install any app I want, so I'm thinking of installing Windows 10 Privacy Fixer.
Is that enough, or am I doing it wrong ?
Also, ITT win10 protips.
>>51289598
install Gentoo and get a Windows 10 skin, they won't notice, trust
>How does I win10 without sending data to M$ headquarter-pounders every time I p2p ?

Love to do that but can't, got to install proprietary windows software (SDL Trados).
Why isn't this working?

Nothing better than lighting up a B&H before peacing out on a sloot
I run a photo blog so camera is with me daily.
I always carry my monkey pipe to 420 on the go.
I need a new laptop.
I won't do much more than streaming music and movies, word processing, some very light gaming (running emulators and such)
Budget is $1.5-1.8k CAN
Things that are important to me:
1. Build quality
I need something that looks and feels good and will last me 5 years
2. Decent specs
Again, not doing much but I guess this ties in more with reliability considering most things are soldered and inaccessible
3. Sleek, portable design
Looking for a 13", don't want anything crazy bulky or too heavy
Considering rMBP, XPS13, ???
XPS15 which is the same as 13" for any other manufacturer.
Exact use case for an rMBP.

Why do you try so hard to get other people to eat shit from their hands?
