I'm making a home computer using 2 atmegas, and need a name for the project.
>>55081252
No you don't.
pc@home
>>55081252
Why do you NEED a name for it?
one easy to install, and without botnets?
gentoo
>>55081245
Lubuntu or Xubuntu.
If you are not dumb and understand that Mint was not hacked, but the website, and the attacker (Microsoft presumably) tried to defame them, Go for Mint Cinnamon.
If you have a little more experience, go for Manjaro or Devuan.

Why are you asking here? There's a board dedicated to video games.
WTF is this? How can they add extra pins? Does Broadwell-E have pads that aren't typically used?
Ok, after reading some forums it seems that the 2011-3 socket processors do have unused pins that can be used for extra vrms.
Downside is that it makes it very easy to fry your cpu.
Sounds dumb
Holy shit msi treats overclocking like the most amazing thing you can do to a gayming pc until you can't even boot into windows.

>put too much vcore through your cpu

Nothing has changed.
Please let me know if this build is ok

OP here. Do I need anything else at all? Is the motherboard compatible etc etc.

You have two EVOs listed, get the new model
Why is everything so expensive?
Install Gentoo, not Windows
Go for 16GBs of RAM
Get an 850 evo

>>55081396
Everything is in NZ dollars so probably seems more expensive if you are American.

Can anyone tell me why the hell does Windows 8.1 upload shit to China?
Does Microsoft have servers there?
>>55081084
nice malware you have
>>55081139
But all system processes and files show as legit using md5 checksum
>>55081084
Just because a server is in China doesnt automatically mean its malware. Any of the ips in your list could be malware. Check the content of the requests with wireshark.

If I tried that on a cell network in the US I'd have to pay about 3000 USD.
Alright boys, I think we have a problem.
I ordered a new Laptop and most of the drivers are exclusively made for Windows 10.
There is literally no way to make it work as supposed with Windows 7...
So the question is, do you go full retard and try to debotnet Win10 or do you run Win7 without 90% of the drivers?
I could switch to linux at that point but linux does not have Visual Studio :^)
>>55080968
Embrace my botnet pussy.
Run visual studio in wine or a VM, OP-kun.

What if OS X, Windows and Linux were combined into one OS, would it be good o bad?
It would destroy the advantages of each operating system
OSX and Linux are both POSIX compliant, so it'd probably be possible to run GNU/Darwin or OS X/Linux with some work, right?
Windows is a clusterfuck and would break everything.

If you're an AMD user you are always waiting for something.
That's the life of an AMD user. Just gotta wait for the next thing, and once the thing comes you're already waiting for the next thing.

It makes sense to give them each a little breathing room. Maybe one release a month starting with the 480. If you're looking to build having this time to see the benchmarks and watching the market react is a good thing.

What's the best way to encrypt a USB flash drive and easily decrypt it when plugged into a PC?
Basically, best portable USB flash drive encryption/decryption software.
>>55080567
First, enable whole-drive encryption on it. Then, disable whole-drive encryption.
Now when you plug it into any PC, you won't have to enter a password anymore.

Is the XPS 13 worth buying over the Macbook?
Only thing that really bothers me about the XPS is that fucking camera placement.
>>55080457
Anything is worth buying over the macbook.
>>The MacBook Air and Pro are the worst buys in laptops right now.
>http://gizmodo.com/where-the-hell-are-the-new-macbooks-1781910047
>>55080457
Yes. Buy the developer edition though for superior OS support.
>>55080639
Standard XPS doesn't support Linux?
