Is there a significant difference between high quality PSUs and low quality ones that aren't complete garbage?
For example, if someone plays vidya and the system consumes 400W from a 650W PSU, will there be a difference if the PSU is a Corsair VS/CX instead of a Corsair RM/AX? Does the quality of PSU matter if you don't max it all the time?

You could check the homescreen thread on /wg/.

You just need a bg scroll animation on the group of icons, and the center screen has to be the screen it has to be on. That's atleast how I did it.
Hi, what are everyone's thoughts on this build?
I think I have all the parts finalized, but I'm still deciding between the 390 and the 970.

Create e.g. a button in kwlp. Then you should go to the "Animation" properties of it, add a bg scroll animation, with the center set on e.g. screen 1, if you want it to appear on homescreen 1. You'll basically be swiping through homescreens with your clock on the same location. You might have to mess around with the speed property as well

I got a problem.
My brother has a USB headset that works on his Windows 8 machine, but he got a new headphone today that plugs into the 3.5mm audio ports and now the Windows is complaining that the sound is disabled.
I believe I knew the issue. That Windows disabled the sound because it the USB headset isn't plugged in, but I went to the sound settings and set the motherboard's Dell Conexant audio as the default and the headset is showing up as plugged-in in the Dell Audio program, but windows is still saying sound is disabled and don't know what to do now.

How do I read this chart?
I understand that I can use the SATA3_0-4 connectors no matter what I put in the M.2 and can't use SATA3_5 if I have a SATA SSD in the M.2.
What I don't understand are the SATA Express and PCI connectors.
What does "No devices installed" mean in this context?
The third line seems to be telling me that if I use a M.2 SATA SSD, I can use every connector except SATA3_5.
But then the three other M.2 SATA lines presumably only tell me that PCI and SATA Express devices are optional.
My problem with that is that it is redundant and inconsistent, (they don't bother putting NA at SATA3_0-4)
As I understand it: If I use a PCIe x4 SSD, I cannot use the SATA Express connector, but what about the PCI?

How do I determine a good CPU? It doesn't seem like there's a simple linear scale based on something simple like GHz, it seems like there are CPUs that have lower GHz but are more powerful than others because of things like architecture. I just don't understand how you're supposed to figure out what's better than what and how to decide.
Also does AMD even matter for CPUs right now? It seems like everything is i3 or i5 or i7. I never see anything mentioned about AMD.
>>54428814
>I never see anything mentioned about AMD.
Probably because various tests and benchmark sites suggest that while AMD CPUs have similar multi-thread performance to Intel ones, they have really low single-thread performance compared to them. And a lot of software most people use is usually single-thread.

I need a suggestion for GPU upgrade
Power supply is 600W linkworld with 1X pcie connector
Hope it won't blow up with new GPU,and no i can't upgrade PSU too low on cash.
What OS is this? I see almost everyone with this os how you have multiple terminals
>>54428814
Passmark multi-core results
intel i3s: up to ~6,100
AMD A10 APUs/x4 athlons: up to ~6,100
intel i5s: up to ~8,100
AMD FXs: up to ~10,300
Most games today use more than 1 cpu thread so going with AMD doesn't make too much of a difference especially in DX12 games. And unless you encode video 24/7 power consumption isn't something you should worry about.
Going above an i5/FX processor is completely pointless unless you're running a server or encoding 4K HEVC video. That being said FX processors are pretty old and you should wait for AMD Zen processors if you want more juice than an i3.
Finally AMD processors are always cheaper and offer the same multi-core performance. For example the AMD 860k is ~$80 and the intel i3 4370 is ~$160. Both offer pretty much the same 5,600 multi-core passmark. With the 860k being able to overclock whereas the i3 can't.

No one has tried, as it's a bad idea. LTO tape might survive decades in storage, but it fastly degrades when read or written.
You can try doing it, but be prepared for the tape to die after a couple reboots. Also tape is painfully slow.
>>54429338

>>54426570
Yes, just use a beginner distro so you can learn bash a lot better and you'll get a better understanding of GNU/Linux in general. Also I think this question was more meant for the "friendly GNU/Linux thread". But to add on, if it's on a VM it really doesn't matter too much but in general it's good to know basic GNU/Linux functions and the way things work out. I'd start out by using Ubuntu with unity, then using another distro such as Mint with xfce, or move onto another DE. You just want to get a feel for the DE's and find which one is the most comfy for you. You can always install a dual boot of a distro you like to get a full experience that's faster and not well, on VM tier hardware.

so there is contradicting instructions on this linux live program.
its just a program that functions without an os, from boot, on your usb/cd/dvd.
first, it tells me "if you're using linux live usb creator, follow this link and download ISO file"
with "iso" bolded
then when i actually get to the part where im supposed to download it, they say "download iso file if you're using cd/dvd. download zip file if you're using usb"
im using usb. so do i download the iso or the zip?

Efficiency and materials. You want leaky shit that also overheats and has a tendency to blow inside of a year, get a CX. You want a really crappy PSU, get a diablotek, now those are shit PSUs.
There's also ease-of-use. A non-modular PSU is a bitch and a half to manage while a modular PSU is so easy a monkey could use it.
Do not skimp on the PSU, ever.

Ahh, just looked it (xfce and unity) up, its the DE, right?
Thanks again
>>54430353
Yes, unity is the default DE for ubuntu but is usually shunned upon for being less customisable and more resource intensive, some people don't like the design either (on modern hardware you should be good anyways). Xfce focuses on being lightweight and customisable but may not look good to you, there's many things in a DE that makes it how you like it. So at the end of the day it's all purely preference whether you like X DE or not. Just experiment with different distros and DE's and you'll find one that's comfy for you.
This is a simple question. Do I need a GPU if I plan to use more than one monitor for work related purposes, not gaming? You'd be surprised how hard it is to find a straight answer on google, some places even say you need multiple GPUs for that.
>>54430462
It depends on the resolution, but generally you want a somewhat decent GPU in general just for having more pixels displayed and for everything being quick/smoother/faster.
>>54430462
Depends on your motherboard, but if you have to ask, then the answer is probably yes, you do need a GPU for dual monitor or more setups.
Which one should I download?
Why does the number of files I'm uploading in pic related not match the number of files in the folder I selected to upload?
I literally selected to upload the folder, yet, my upload appears to be skipping over some files. Are they incompatible with mega.nz? If so, which are they?
>>54430485
>>54430488
Thanks. This isn't for me, this is for a friend's mother who needs multiple monitors for work reasons. I assume a 750Ti would be the perfect GPU. Also, both of those monitors use VGA, and the 750 Ti comes with a VGA converter. Do I also need to buy an HDMI to VGA converter, or do I split it off the VGA, or what?
>>54430543
Are both monitors VGA? If so, you should just get one with 2xVGA output.
>>54430462
Well, you need _a_ GPU at least. So the way you worded the question, I assume you already have an Intel processor with an integrated graphics processor, can you confirm that?
>>54430501
DVD1 only
>>54425314
Yes

Isn't that basically impossible?
The server hides the information of what files are in that directory.
The point is that you can't see them which should work unless the webserver isn't configured correctly.
I think you'd have to try out all possible image names or find a part of the website where they are all displayed somewhere to gather the links.
Please someone correct me if I'm wrong on this.

when does programming become fun? I'm learning right now and I can't seem to keep myself interested enough to want to study for more than an hour or two a day.
I was thinking of watching someone actually write a program on youtube or something and learning from there. Would that prove to be more efficient and useful in terms of understanding and remembering certain concepts? Pic unrelated

I tried going into the android device manager to try to set a different lock but all it says is that it registers that there's already a lock and ignores my request to put in a word lock on it. how can I get into my phone? is it possible to get a micro usb adpator and plug a mouse into it and use it that way? do I just have to replace the screen?

boot into your linux and fire up gparted, wipe your win10 and format it as ntfs, and if desired resize partitions, then boot up the win7 install and put it on the ntfs partition
>>54432287
seconding calibre, I wouldn't bother with it's library function though, just set it up as your default for all ebook .pub etc and open your shit through the file manager, but that's just me

then just set up your partitions however you want them, boot into the winders install and put it where you want, then afterwards you'll need to reinstall grub if winders fucks up or erases grub

most likely use of a shitty ripping program, what'd you use?

So far, system troubleshooting and virus/malware scans find nothing.
>>54432608
I've tried it with two solutions, actually;
Brasero on ubuntu 16.04 was the first, the second was done with imgburn on a windows 7 client.
The disk i'm copying is an ESXi 6.0 disk of which there's only one in the college.
>>54432615
check your power settings, it's probably set to sleep/hibernate when the screen goes off
>>54432629
Put write speed slower.
Also, there should be an option to verify the .iso after ripping and the disc after ripping.

I used to have a 650Ti,but then upgraded to a 280x. I've started working on a game, but now that I'm not using an nvidia card, I don't have shadowplay. Can I run both cards at once, and only use the 650Ti for recording?
>>54432853
hardly
>>54432862
amds raptr malware can do that.
>>54432761
depends on what you want to use the server for. The best OS is one that you don't have to reinstall after a while, so any Linux distro with a short release cycle (like the non-LTS *buntus or Fedora) is not good.
Centos or Debian stable are usually what people use for servers that run for years without rebooting.
I have an overkill PC that doesn't hit 30% no matter what I do. Any programs that can take advantage of the processing power whilst teaching me a thing or two? Like protein structure simulation or something to that effect (for free)?

I have already set it to 1x on both the read and write process (Which turned out to be 2.4x because laptop drive.) as I didn't have my usual desktop ready.
The original disk appeared to have a few buffs and scratches but on the readable bit there isn't too much damage.
>>54432884
I've tried that, but it won't record the screen whenever I want. It only runs while in a game
Hello /g/
I just got ruTorrent working on a clean debian install using https://github.com/Kerwood/Rtorrent-Auto-Install
Why is nothing seeded back?
Am I missing something in my .rtorrent.rc file?
>>54433116
Forgot pic sorry
>>54433130
but it clearly shows one torrent being uploaded and a few more of them being recently uplodaded?
>>54433192
It's seeding 1 torrent though
I would expect at least 30% of the torrents being seeded
Or am I being retarded
I'm late to the party watching $FamousYoutuber and this little shit has hundreds of videos. I want to browse all this shit but jewgle decided pages aren't "modern" enough and infinite scrolling systems can't save your place.
What script, style etc can I install that forces youtube to paginate lists, so I don't have to slowly scroll through 500 videos 10 at a time to get back to my place in the list
>>54430709
Good speads, yeah.
>>54432337
I like lollypop. If you're not in GNOME though I imagine it will be less pleasant.
>>54433130
ruTorrent by default configures for four upload slots I believe. If you just installed it, perhaps nobody is downloading right now. Patience.
>>54432300
HTML can't do this directly, you'd need to use some kind of scripting. JavaScript can do this I believe (not 100%), or PHP (or some other server-side language).
In your case, JavaScript will likely work better as it's client side, PHP requires a webserver to run (so works if you're running local apache/IIS, but may be overkill if you're making just a browser landing page).
With that said, I'm not much of a JavaScript guy, but a quick Google seems to confirm that it is indeed possible.
If there's a way to do this without reading from a local file, that's probably better though - what are you trying to do?
i just installed ubuntu on my main pc. i have a .jar file i'm trying to run but whenever i try to run it it just tries to extract the contents. i tried right clicking to see if there was a different program i had to use but nothing else came up. what package do i need to install in order to be able to run java files?
>>54433527
You have to install Java. From the terminal run:
sudo apt-get install java
And then:
Right click on the .jar -> Properties
Check the Allow execution box, it's somewhere in there.
Then try running it.
To what extent should I optimize my SSD for the OS/programs I put on it, if at all? That is to say, doing all of the various tweaks to limit the amount of write cycles (disabling/relocating paging files, temp folders, etc.) I've heard some people say it's not really necessary with modern SSDs, and others say it's a good practice to have nonetheless. Furthermore, is it still recommended to keep them at ~75% capacity? I've read some sources that say there's a hidden partition on most SSDs now for precisely that purpose.
>>54433606
All you should care about is overprovisioning and TRIM. Everything else is a waste of time and effort with very little in return. SSDs can deal with 10GB/day for 20 years or 20GB/day for 10 years. Take it easy alright?
Maybe a wrong place to ask as I don't often visit this board, but I'd like to ask in what priority should I replace these parts. If you could recommend specific products and models it would be greatly appreciated, I should also let you folks know that I'm sorta running on a budget. So I'm not trying to go around past $800 overall.

What's wrong with it exactly? GPU/CPUs are out of the question since a generational leap is coming soon. First with GPUs in a couple of months and cpus later this year.
I suppose an evo 850 would speed things up nicely for the moment if you must.
Save up some more and wait for Zen/Polaris/Pascal.

>>54433981

Yes and it's called an OTG USB cable. Depends on the phone but generally most recent phones have that capability. My Note 4 does as do many others. Very handy at times.
>>54432308
I think that after some tries an option will come up asking you if you want to reset via email (the one you used when you set up the phone). There are thousands of way to gain access to an android phone, just google it.

>What's wrong with it exactly?
I thought it was about time to upgrade. It's been a little over 4, reaching 5 years now.
Also I got this weird issue where randomly my Windows flicks it's screen for a second, then I notice things like my appearance settings for my desktop starts acting weird, this goes on for at least 4-6 minutes before it suddenly goes back to normal.
And a lot of games that are made for Nvidia crash on me if I go anywhere higher than medium settings, I feel like the first problem might've been a driver or possible a graphic card issue. So I was debating was seems like a more appropriate choice to upgrade first.
>>54434067
Do you have a 290 by any chance?
>>54434094
All I know is that it is R9 200 series and I forgot the actual model. Know a good place of checking without popping open my PC case?
>>54434067
Seems like a problem with either the monitor or the graphics cad. Most likely the latter. It's not really a good time to upgrade it though. A 380X/390 would be fine were it not so power-hungry. The 400 series will fix this. Nvidia cards are pretty shitty at the moment.
You can probably get an i5-6600k/Asus Z170A/HyperX DDR4 RAM for ~450 leaving ~350 for a graphics card i.e. 390.
Don't you have another GPU you can test? Maybe borrow from a friend?
Can anyone tell me what type of video input cable this is? And if it's possible to buy a converter to VGA?
>>54434161
Not really, no one I know is a real tech-savvy person. Sorta the reason I stopped by here, sorry. If I could find someone to borrow a GPU off of, what exactly am I looking for?
>>54434173
60 ohm RCA. That's an analog cable and VGA is digital, so while there are adapters available they're a bit clonky
>>54434306
