Where did everything go so wrong?
When they decided to make a speed demon CMT machine despite both Intel failing with the first and Sun failing with the second.
1-.Intel paid companies to use just their products
2-.Bulldozer
Does /g/ have any experience with Sager laptops? I'm looking for something around $1000 that's got the best hardware for the price, and I was surprised at the specs on the cheaper Sager models. Is there some sort of catch/tradeoff, or am I better suited buying a different laptop?

I'm in the market for a new laptop. $1200 max. New. $1201 or buying an used laptop is not allowed, really. My laboratory buys the laptop, and thats the amount of money for it.

Look dude, whatever keeps them from the streets or from the drugs is ok.

The internet is a drug.
>>55363552
How about you list the laptops with the best specs in your price range and we help you decide from there?
I'm about to pull the trigger on this case and a new cooler
Give me reasons not to
>have shitty mATX with no room for decent cooler and my stock intel cooler is sounding like a chopper

Any Raijintek styx owners here?
>>55363471
When you type the word "Raijintek", there are too many letters in a row with little dots above them. It creeps me out. Would not buy.

I`ve got Tisis and i have to say the fan is weird. On high RMP is vibrating like crazy. Sometimes fan touches the heatsink and starts making buzzing noise
/g/entlemen,
I have a question: Anyone know why blink or beep doesn't work anymore in the modern versions of shell (Bash, in the actual distros)?
Thank you in advance.
>>55363455
It works fine in bash. The problem is that 99% of distros no longer load the actual beep module.
You need to manually load the module and then beep will work.
>>55363502
Thank you by your answer about the beep problem. I will investigate.
And, by the way, do you know about the blink problem too? Like:echo -e "\033[5mBlinking text\033[0m"
doesn't work anymore in Bash.

What went wrong?
>>55363381
idk what this is but it seems like it never left the prototype stage
>>55363381
kippers are the bee's knees
>>55363381
Used one, it worked just fine, but it didn't improve workflow or enjoyment
>he does'nt refresh his thermal pastes monthly
a refresh is done by simply spraying surgical spirit onto the cpu while under load
bench it
keep records
is it running hotter than it used to?
replace paste
is it running the same as when you benched it fresh?
guess what, it's fine
>>55363325
>still drakeposting
>>55363354
no its not. it NEVER is. you need new paste monthly and i even mix water with thermal paste
water = anti-fire = cool
What do you think about this fucking piece of trash?
Will it be PYRA 2.0?
Please, tell me i'm not the only one skeptical enough.

So you can see the specs.
All that for JUST THAT LITTLE PRICE?
I just can't stop thinking about a scam bigger than an elephant.

Gonna slap a waterblock on it, kick it to 2+ GHz
i don't have a source of income
but i could blow my savings (birthday money from my grannies and my daddy) on one of those
should I go for it?
>>55363248
Not if it gets bottlenecked by the rest of your system.
So my uncle gave me his old busted Desktop. Pic related. Found out everything works fine except the HDD. The specs are outdated though, is there anything I can do to make this machine better or should I just scalp a few parts and junk it?
Here are specs.

I don't see why brain "uploading" wouldn't work:
1. Inject subject's brain with a bunch of nanomachines and raw chunks of semiconductor material (probably something usable on atomic scale)
2. Over time nanomachines would built a copy of a neuron in an electronic form beside it, cut the biological neuron when it isn't used and connect the new electronic variant to wherever it went.
3. After every single neuron is replaced by an electric analog, the brain is now entirely electronic.
The subject wouldn't even know it happened, every...

Basically Ship of Theseus
>>55364141
Yeah, but it's still totally you and not a copy.
>>55363025
Hopefully it's that simple. I remember Ray Kurzweil talking about something similar to this.
Most of the time when people discuss brain "uploading," they just refer to making a copy of the original consciousness, upload that, and let the original die, which is something different.
RX 480 Mosfet cooling
How does it work?
If I want to add a custom cooler to the reference RX 480, then the report says I also absolutely need to cool the mosfets on the board. However, it just tells you to get a mosfet cooler from an older card. I don't have one, so I have to get it from somewhere else.
Will ones like these work? Do they need a specific size? If they're too big, they won't fit, right?

Since they're bigger than the mosfets, I have to glue them on somehow like this, right? Sounds retarded
Another pic with the heatsinks removed
sup g, i dont give a shit if i get b& for posting this, im a newfag
i have a random mid tower case and a mATX motherboard, and i wanna upgrade to the msi gtx 950 2gd5
will it fit the shit? i currently have gt 630 and its ok
pic unrelated
>>55362880
if not bend the case with a hammer...
now go fuck ur self we have the sqg for this shtt
>>55362923
i need desperate help man, any link/thread is appreciated
>>55362880
can you get the dimensions/specs of your GT 630 from Google or whatnot, and then compare it to the dimensions of the msi gtx 950? Can you call a local computer retailer/repair shop and ask them? You should try those options, too, instead of relying solely on /g/ and their admittedly awesome expertise.
Hey \g\ I found a movie about Linux

That's Linux alright.
