What have you upgraded recently?
What are you looking to upgrade next?
i dropped your mother and picked up your girl.
my next upgrade will be your little sister.

if anyone is going to fuck my sister its gonna be family, not some fat neck bearded loser like you
>have i5 2500K / 8GB RAM / 128GB SSD / HD7850
Another 8GB RAM and a 500GB SSD (together about €180) would be a nice upgrade, right? Or would that be throwing away money?
7870=270x>960
The 7870 Released in 2012. And its kills the 960

The benchmarks are in. OP has just set a new low!

Everybody already knows that Nvidia is shit. We don't need an hourly thread reaffirming that fact.

Ok, I know Reacting is all scripted, but would you really screw yourself world wide by acting dumb on a video?
I mean, ok stupidity is a thing, but this goes too far...
We need development on this app but the developer seems to go back and forth with updating it, why isn't there a good alternative to this
Looks pretty much the same as chanu to me.

I haven't used Windows/MPC in a while but I'm sure you could set it to loop.

Hi everyone, in addition to this being your daily reminder that 90% of PC gamers don't know what the fuck they are talking about when it comes to building a cost-effective system for gaming, I have come back from a weekend of stress testing my garbage build, which many of you were apt to make fun of due to your limitless ignorance and utter lack of initiative.
Here's the system spec for reference:
CPU: Intel Xeon W3680
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Seidon 120V AIO Water Cooler
Motherboard: EVGA FTW3
RAM: 4x4 16gb (dual channel configuration due to my motherboard being a repair job and not all slots working)
GPU: 2x EVGA GTX 760 SSC 2gb SLI
HDD1: Patriot Blaze 120Gb SATA III SSD on SATA II connection (don't ask)
HDD2: 250gb 7200rpm SATA III HDD
HDD3: 500gb 7200rpm SATA II HDD
Cooling Subsystem: 5x 120mm fans + 1x 40mm
Case: Antec GX500 modded for frontal water cooler mounting
PSU: EVGA SuperNEX 750W Gold rated modular PSU
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (upgraded from Windows 7 Pro)
In the last thread, I had people request that I benchmark my system with the following three titles: Witcher 3, DayZ Standalone, and Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag. It was theorized that DayZ and AC4:BF especially would make my processor weep, since they demand high single core performance.
Here are the results, and a question from me to the unwashed masses that will follow:
Witcher 3
Settings: 1080p, all settings maximum except for vsync and hair, Nvidia SLI settings enabled
Avg FPS (as measured by PlayClaw 5): 45-60fps depending heavily on area (locked at 60)
Avg. CPU usage: ~30-50% across all 12 threads
Avg. GPU usage: ~100% on both cards
Avg. RAM usage: 8gb
DayZ
Settings: 1080p, all settings maximum except for AA and , Nvidia SLI DISABLED
Avg FPS (as measured by PlayClaw 5 and Steam Overlay): ~24 (never went lower than 14, never went higher than 50 - cities were the worst)
Avg. CPU usage: Very uneven and jumpy usage across all threads; usually about 4-5 threads picking up 80% of the work; one thread in particular hovering between 50-91% utilization, with an average of around ~75% utilization. Rampant thread switching.
Avg. GPU usage: ~50%, never saw it go to 100% or really even close. Maybe 80% a few times?
Avg. RAM usage: 6gb
Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag
Settings: 1080p, all settings maximum, Nvidia SLI settings enabled
Avg FPS (as measured by PlayClaw 5): solid 60fps (locked at 60)
Avg. CPU usage: ~40-90% usage on a single thread at all times; definitely the bottleneck at times; minor usage across up to five additional threads
Avg. GPU usage: ~80-100% on both cards
Avg. RAM usage: 6gb
>>53378069
Witcher 3 was pretty much as expected.
As you can see, DayZ was really something of an anomaly. Based on usage stats alone, there's no bottleneck - yet the FPS experienced was extremely, noticeably low. HOWEVER, gameplay did not feel as choppy as that FPS would normally feel on other games; in fact the game was pretty much playable, though it did have some very undesirable choppiness when moving quickly in large urban environments. I really don't know what to think of this benchmark, so I'd appreciate someone more experienced with DayZ to speak up and tell me what's going on.
AC4:BF was unusually good. Using the Nvidia GeForce Experience SLI Preset settings not only caused my GPU performance to be very good, but it (somehow?) seemed to lower CPU usage slightly as well. In the past I had been very CPU limited in Havana and other busy areas, with a single core sitting at 90-100% usage pretty commonly, but not now. Either Nvidia has some magic to offload processing work on the GPU, or perhaps the game has been optimized since my last benchmark. Ultimately no longer a good benchmark of this system, as it was easily playable.
Hatred, admissions of inferiority, and any other commentary on that spectrum of honesty is appreciated.

Guys, what the fuck do I have to do with this battery about to explode?
Is there anything I have to be careful about?
Why did it even happen? Because I charged the phone after a lot of time since the last charge?
>>53377823
Stab it.

Put it carefully under the pillow when going to sleep. Battery fairy will pick it up and leave you some neetbucks aswell ;)

OH LOOK AT THAT. 960 is beating a 780 ti! Nvidia gimpworks much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DIE NVIDIA DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Great post OP, too bad that graph fails to mention what's it's even measuring, the selected graphics API, and the graphics quality settings.
Hello all.
Just trying to get some ideas on the two systems I have. One is an i5 2400 with a MB out of a Lenovo PC. Q67 chipset iirc. So I can't tweak it. The other is a i7 940, in a Dell XPS 730X. It has overclocking options. Given the option of overclocking, which would you go for? Benchmarks I've found say the i5 edges out the i7, at stock speeds. But if I can tweak it faster, I'll go with the i7. I know these are old. But its what I have to work with, and I know they are better than my old Phenom II setups.
>>53377384
Go i7. I've got a 930 running at 4.1ghz.
That's what I'm hoping for. Alot of info was saying that Sandy Bridge would be way better. But I'm hoping the increase in raw speed would make up for it. Seems that could the case.
>>53377384
Throw away the i7, get a x58 motherboard and a xeon w3670. Overclock it to 4ghz and you're done.
>6/12 cores @4ghz

>the motherboard supports usb 3.0 along being a server class mobo (which means its very high quality and supports more stuff)

Find the vulnerability /g/!
If correct, when CryptoAPI.sha1.hash(x) is called, you should be able to run arbitrary code on the machine you're attacking. Assume that x is a value controlled by the attacker.var CryptoAPI = (function() {
var encoding = {
a2b: function(a) { },
b2a: function(b) { }
};
var API = {
sha1: {
name: 'sha1',
identifier: '2b0e03021a',
size: 20,
block: 64,
hash: function(s) {
var len = (s += '\x80').length,
blocks = len >> 6,
chunk = len & 63,
res = "",
i = 0,
j = 0,
H = [0x67452301, 0xEFCDAB89, 0x98BADCFE, 0x10325476, 0xC3D2E1F0],
w = [];
while (chunk++ != 56) {
s += "\x00";
if (chunk == 64) {
blocks++;
chunk = 0;
}
}
for (s += "\x00\x00\x00\x00", chunk = 3, len = 8 * (len - 1); chunk >= 0; chunk--) {
s += encoding.b2a(len >> (8 * chunk) & 255);
}
for (i = 0; i < s.length; i++) {
j = (j << 8) + encoding.a2b(s[i]);
if ((i & 3) == 3) {
w[(i >> 2) & 15] = j;
j = 0;
}
if ((i & 63) == 63) CryptoAPI.sha1._round(H, w);
}
for (i = 0; i < H.length; i++)
for (j = 3; j >= 0; j--)
res += encoding.b2a(H[i] >> (8 * j) & 255);
return res;

Hey I connected r9 380 to monitor I turn on power but it just spins fans amd doesnt show any picture on display. No signal or something

Maybe you shouldn't be putting your board on top of the bag you massive idiot.
>>53377259
Got the monitor set up for the right input?
>>53377259
Is this a bait thread? Also, if your CPU has integrated graphics test with that first.
Discuss.

I wonder if a DAC will improve my sound quality.
I currently have a headphone amp connected to my MSI z97 gaming 5 motherboard. I listen to hd650 headphones.
Does anyone have personal experience?
You already have 2 DACs.

Would that not be one, the motherboard
