is the alc888 a good dac ?
if not what should i upgrade it with ?
>inb4 $500 hardware
be resonable.
why there are /hpg/ threads but no /dac/ threads ?

>is the alc888 a good dac ?
I thought it was a codec, not a dac.
>>54378284
>but no /dac/ threads ?
Because it's (mostly) a placebo unless you're going for multiple channels with a goal of studio quality. There's also no way of saying which on board DACs perform the best as this varies wildly with how the mobo manufacturer uses them. Using NVidia graphics cards is also bad for your built in DAC sound quality as they pull more power through the mobo than using an IGP or an AMD card.
All in all, the minor difference in sound quality isn't worth the hassle. If you insist on having a separate DAC then just get a USB one.

interesting, thanks for the tip
Why is Google still using Java? Android hardware manufacturers are constantly trying to pull more performance and better battery life from their phones, all the while all of the code that is being run on them is running in a VM, wasting tons of battery life and system resources. Meanwhile, iOS runs native code and can run much smoother and with better battery life with much lower specs. Google needs to adopt a language that is closer to the metal, like Swift.
Maybe they know better than you
Maybe you're asking a good question
Who knows

Hi /g/.
I plan to replace my main home PC, carrying the drives from old but with intention of doing clean install of OS.
Which version of Windows should I get? 7 or 8.1? What are the advantages/disadvantages of each one? I have legit keys for both ("Pro" editions), so getting it is not a problem.
In before - while I have Mint on other drive, I dont really use it everyday, just installed it for fun. Most of software I use is Windows only and dont work (at least - dont work properly enough) with Wine (not to mentionthe idea of installing Linux only to run soft with Wine). And while I have legit copy of Windows 10 Edu, I dont really want to install it yet.
Thanks for replies, like always.
I recommend MS-DOS. It is the fastest operating system that is compatible with all of your software.
>>54374073
Windows 7 Ultimate is best OS

Veeeery funny.

Welcome to /fglt/. We are always open to users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are four ways to try GNU/Linux, you can:
0) Install a GNU/Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
1) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full GNU/Linux experience".
2) Dual-boot GNU/Linux with Windows/Mac (recommended if you want to learn more about GNU/Linux)
3) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with GNU/Linux
Before asking, please search for answers to your questions in resources.
Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly GNU/Linux Thread.
Understand that much of your software from Windows will be unavailable, although maybe WINE can make up for it.

You autists can cry and complain all you want while using your Chrome spyware browser and your Android spyware phones.
All this racist hate just because Microsoft's CEO is now India.
I don't even need to tell you about the amazing features Windows 10 has like Cortana and Windows Ink because you won't care. You hate technological progress which is why you still use boring Apple products and shitty Linux distro UIs still trying their best to look like Windows XP/Vista clones.

>falling for the retina meme
Want to get a Macbook without spending a fortune? Let me teach you Apple's dirty little secret. Go to eBay and get yourself one of the Mid-2012 models for less than half the price of a Retina model. Afterwards, buy a 250GB SSD and 16GB RAM, and optionally a caddy and a 1TB HDD to replace the SuperDrive if you don't need optical drive functionality.
Altogether, for around half the price of a comparably specced Retina Macbook Pro, you'll get close to the same performance, and tons more storage if you replace the SuperDrive with another HDD. All you're missing out on is the Retina display and a bit more battery life, while retaining the ability to upgrade and replace core components of your Macbook.
>All you're missing out on is the best part
>>54371288
Yes, the Retina display is the best thing about the rMBPs. Too bad it comes saddled with a much higher price tag, no upgradeability, and close to no user maintenance.
