I'm super fucked off that all versions are Windows now come with spyware that can't be disabled. And I want to play games, I'm living in a nightmare, and I just roll with the punches.
So is the best course of action, to just dedicate a machine solely to playing games and never talk or interact on the internet on anyway with it. And dedicate another machine for browsing, editing, downloading, basically everything else. Correct?
Recently I've noticed that browsing the internet in any capacity tanks my torrent download speeds tremendously, of course I know that there's a drop in speeds but not to the degree that its been happening.
I didn't have this problem before a few weeks ago. I use deluge and can provide more information if need be.
EDIT: just saw new thread
Hi /g/. I'm a new Arch user and I've decided to use the rxvt-unicode terminal emulator. I want to keep bash as the default shell but I've installed fish for ease of use when doing simple tasks.
I can't figure out how to get the terminal emulator to start up running fish, I've tried some things in the ~/.Xresources folder but to no avail. The only successful method I've had is to edit bashrc...this does work but I want to be able to run the "bash" command inside of fish to switch back and forth between bash and fish shells. If I run "bash" with an edited bashrc it just keeps running fish in the terminal emulator...
wat do?
I got a new laptop and I really like it but the screen brightness is pretty low even on the highest setting.
Is there any other way to make it brighter?

Expand your use case.

Good keyboard <$110 ?
>>51845788

Why does youtube keep buffering?
I'm able to download at 7MB/sec without any problems, my ping is sub 20ms
I tried switching DNS Google DNS, my ISP, and Level3. My ISP is apparently hijacking Google's DNS to put in their own cache servers which are equally shit.
Level3's DNS has been the best for me, but today i'm having lots of issues with DASH playback.
The video will seem to be capped at 10mbps, and it will only start buffering again until the buffer runs out. Really goddamn annoying.

Is there really a noticable difference between an expensive gaming keyboard and a cheap normal one
>>51845788
>Model M or Unicomp

Actually there are a lot of good keyboards at that price. It isn't until you go for the premium shit (Leopold) that the price point really goes up. If you go for a keyboard with Cherry switches, you'll probably end up swapping out the keycaps for a better set no matter what keyboard you buy.
My advice, don't get a keyboard with Cherry MX clones (especially Kailh). Gaterons are supposedly ok, but I would rather just get the real deal than stress out over whether the stems are going to break or any other bullshit you might have to deal with.

Your best bet is to do some research. There are plenty of reviews for both CPUs and GPUs that will tell you power consumption. If you're at the borderline, your system will lock up or shut off when you start putting heavy loads on the CPU and/or GPU. Obviously, heavy loads mean higher power consumption.
If you have a system already set up, you can try using a $20 device called a Kill-a-watt to tell you how many watts you're using at the power outlet. Only plug your PC tower into it. Open something like Furmark or whatever and/or Prime95 and see what the power consumption is. Also remember the efficiency rating and headroom for your NB and other devices. Someone else might have a handy multiplication factor to factor that stuff in. But if you have a Bronze rated 500w PSU and you're sucking up close to that at the outlet then you should probably upgrade.

>>51846142
As much money as you want to spend on a keyboard.
Look up the different mechanical switch types. Some make clicking noises, some require more/less force to push. Pick a switch type based on what you think you want.
They tend to be less sleek and XxX_MLGproSNIPER_XXX-ish, but they're well worth the money.
Does having a overclockable cpu have a really big difference on video editing? I don't want to spend that much on an editing computer. I plan on getting an i5-4590.
>>51846173
that's the point.
you selectively can enable/disable pretty much everything.
don't use it if you don't know how the web works.
>>51846205
To add to this, if you don't know your switch preference then you really need to buy a tester. They're like $12 but it's better than spending $150-200+ on a keyboard and finding that you hate the switches. I thought I would like MX Browns until I bought a tester, then I found that I actually hated MX Browns and I liked MX Blacks the most.

please starting to think.cred = parseFloat(document.getElementById('credits').innerHTML)
parse the actual value inside your credits element, not the element itself.
besides that using innerHTML is a shitty way anyway.
For now it's okay I guess, you'll learn better ways later.

I got a POS Acer ax1700 that I got from goodwill for about $10.
I was considering:
1)Buying an Intel Core2 QUAD, replacing the CPU and adding an used GFX card, probably a low profile, for about $150 total.
2)Buying a Dell Precision T3500 from ebay and adding NVidia GeForce 750 Ti for about $300 total.
The point of this is a HTPC, which will be a emulator box and a 1080p 60fps youtube machine. but of course if it can play some demading games that would be a bonus.

Hey, SQT dumb ass here.
I was wondering if my i5 3570k at 4.2ghz would be a bottleneck for my gpus if I have 2 r9 390s running crossfire.
How come when I set "Asus Optimal" in my BIOS and then try small FFTs in Prime95 it INSTANTLY jumps up to 100 degrees? On normal settings it stays reasonable temperatures, even with turbo mode enabled, so what is it trying to do in "optimal" mode that is heating it up so fast? Is it a bug in temp detection or something? Never seen such a thing, I'd suspect my heatsink is improperly installed but it cools down just as fast when the test is stopped.
>>51849693
>using my coputer to max via prime95
>temps go up
>complain
>>51849706
I expect the temps to go up, but not that high or that fast. Normally it only goes up to lower mid 70s at most, not all the way up to 100.

I'm changing mobo from an h170 chipset to a z170 chipset. I'm currently running windows 8.1. Some sources are saying I'll be able to make the swap without formatting my main drive and reinstalling windows, are they right? My gut says they're wrong, but windows 8.1 is supposed to be pretty good at hardware changes now.
Thoughts?
which is better for a laptop,

Is there any downsides to enabling fast boot in bios & is it worth using?
>>51850228
It wont boot every startup program
>>51850228
All it does is skip the inital "is everything there does it work" sequence.
For example,testing all of your ram.
Disable it and save 3-5 seconds on your bootup

I have a laptop that originally had Windows 8.1 installed when purchased, but I downgraded to Windows 10 because I'm retarded, is it possible to do a full factory reset so it returns to how it was out of the box? The latest win10 update officially makes it the worst OS I have ever used, so I want to go back but have had it installed for more than a month.
Alternatively, is there any way to stop the fucking thing from ruining my headphone drivers? I've gone to the realtek website and installed their drivers, and my headphones work properly for a little while but in task manager a 'driver installer' repeatedly shows up and changes my headphone drivers to speakers, turning the sound quality to absolute shit.

It wasn't a preinstalled windows for what that's worth and the only parts being changed are the mobo and CPU cooler. Guess I'll make a backup and give it a go.

Ok /g/ I'm retarded I know save your breath. Last year I started building a desktop and I decided to buy the peices little by little (big mistake I know). I did it in this order:
Gpu
Case
Psu
Mobo
Liquid cooling system
Cpu and hard drive comming soon.
Me being the little inpatient brat I am I decided to put everything I have so far (did this a couple months ago). I'm starting to worry that the peices that I have bought (even though I haven't done anything with them) mite not work when I finally finish. Any thoughts? Also, my liquid cooling system came with thermal paste on it but I accidently wiped some off. Should I buy and add some?
is it a bad idea to buy smartphones with broken screens and fixing them, then reselling them for twice I bought them? seems easy enough to learn how to do it.
Is a squarish JPG bigger or smaller than a really long one?

There is little reason to believe this.Unless you touch it every day without de-static'ing your self.
Get some compressed air before you finally boot it up and clear the case out.
>Should I buy and add some?
Yes,artic silver.
>>51851061
Post the parts list, both current and planned. And yes, you'll need new thermal paste.

>>51851163
Check your wattage is ample, check you have the right CPU/socket, check the ram is compatible with the board. If that's ok, you should be fine.
Also 970 is a turd price/performance wise.
