Better than my VM. Damn VMS. The best you can get is Virtualbox.
How poor is that? Like $280?

Looks like $280.

Too poor right now for a monitor, that counts right?

if you're really poor, why are you nerds paying upwards of $300 for GPU's?

Literally what is "poor" about this at all? Or are you just saying that so we'll call bullshit and indirectly stroke your fragile ego?
Looks like an average mid-range system to me.

Non-hyper threaded duel cores really don't cut it anymore. I'd go for an 860k if you wanna stay cheap or spend a little extra and get an i3.

How can moderately high-end new consumer hardware be "poor" from any realistic perspective on this board?
Maybe if you're in charge of procurement for a large company and are routinely dumping $250,000+ on UNIX hardware.
All these windows 8s and 10s...
>>51872300
techspot got a i3 to 4.5 I think with those new skylake chips and the decoupled base-clock

There is one, I'm pretty sure that hard drive is failing. It's over 10 years old.
>>51873030
Use something like victoria to diagnose it.
Should I buy a new CPU or GPU first?
I'm looking to spend under 420 CAD
>>51870712
What does /g/ think of my gaymen laptop?
>>51872390
Well, PC parts in my country are already prohibitively expensive, 780ti's when brand new were selling for around $1100.
I have an almost minimum wage job. I'm not in university or anything, but I can barely afford my 2nd hobby.
Personally, I consider that poor.
>>51873400
Shet.
>>51872575
There we go.
>>51873360
CPU upgrade will likely be an intel route, meaning mobo change on top of CPU costs.
At your res, I'd just keep the gpu and cpu for a year or so but start saving now.
Doesn't work on Chrome OS :(
>>51873388
>940M
I think if it was advertised as a gaming laptop you should sue.
The GT 940M is gud, but only GTX products should be called gaming, if for no other reason than lost features
someone help me pick a fucking motherboard or something. also someone told me to get a xeon processor but idk
>>51873543
>940m
Isn't that only a little faster than a 9600GT?
>>51867305

Where's your speccy I wanna see how cool your card runs.

Desktop is off, it's a 280X Vapor-X and if i leave it on the normal fan profile it doesn't go above 75. My own profile lets it hit 82-83 in the interest of dat quiet.

My HTPC.
I think I need to reseat my HSF
>>51878826
how's the gode running for you? tried OCing yet? I heard it was a little better for that since the lid was soldered on for this SKU...
>>51878844
Haven't played with it much. Just installed it last night.
Big speed boost coming from the a4-5300 it replaced
>>51867305
I have a very small ITX case and maintain great temperatures.It was cheap with a lot of discounts. It runs everything I throw at it without maxing over 56c. This is on air cooling with just another 1 120mm.
>>51878871
any particular reason why you're not running faster RAM with it?
>>51878957
I actually have DDR2400 in it that I picked up last years black friday.
This is just an HTPC that stays on forever, and also runs my plex server. For what I do with it, I figured I'd keep the ram clocked lower until I play some games on it.
Then I'll turn on XMP and run it at 2400
>>51879006
gotcha, good call. still, if efficiency was your goal, you might have been better served with the cTDP-capable A8-7600...

>>51879219
what games does that GPU handle well at 1080p? any surprising answers?
>>51879232
It can't handle games at 1080p, that monitor is just my TV for movies. I need a new GPU and a new PSU
>>51879295
not ANY games? I would have figured it would handle at least minecraft w/o shaders, etc. I have an HTPC with a Q6600 and a GT 430 that's practically passively cooled and it can handle indie games surprisingly well; 1080p 30fps on Sir, You Are Being Hunted high settings, 720p 30fps average on Insurgency with medium settings. SteamOS.
I know the 430 is much stronger than the 5450, but still... even my old GTX 8600 256mb could handle SOME games at 1080p.
Have a 120gb SSD as well but got really mad with the cabling and broke the SATA connector.
>>51871735
Trying to melt your system m8 ?
>>51873764
Pc literally will melt
>>51879393
Sure it can handle games like COD 4 and those other indie games. But the 5450 is just weak, it actually can handle GTA IV. Idk how
