I'm just about to build a pc, and I'm not sure what sort of monitor I should get, should I go for Ips 4K or 1440p 144hz. The thing is this isn't going to be a much of a gaming build, as I have uni starting up soon and I'm going to really focus on studying(with gaming on the side) . Would I find more productive value in a 4K or a 1440p monitor?
>GPU: Gtx 1070
>>
>>55530491
For studying/schoolwork the monitor really isn't going to make a big difference, so let's assume your main reason for buying it is gaming.

If you mostly play multiplayer competitive games that require very fast response times then go for the monitor with a higher refresh rate.
If you mostly play single player games or multiplayer games that don't require very fast responses go for the 4k.

I'm building my first PC and just got done reading the sticky (which was incredibly helpful), but I want to get some human confirmation that I'm going about this correctly.

Parts I'm about to order:
Case: Apevia X-QPACK3-BL MicroATX Mini Tower Case
PSU: Raidmax 630W Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply (pcpartpicker says my wattage is 233W)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-B85M-D3H Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
CPU: Intel Core i5-4440 3.1GHz Quad-Core Processor
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB Video Card
RAM: Crucial 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
HDD: Hitachi Deskstar 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

Is there anything blatantly incompatible in this build? Are there any major bottlenecks or overkills? Anything at all that I should rethink before ordering?

Also, if I don't overclock anything but play demanding games often, do I need to buy any extra coolant or will the CPU's stock coolant suffice?
>>
Why does Mullvad seem to be so inconsistent? Sometimes I will be able to connect to web pages perfectly fine with it and seconds later it suddenly can't load anything no matter what country I'm connecting to.

I never had this problem a few months ago. Everything worked completely fine back then. Of course mullvad has no forums or anything at all to discuss any of this.
>>
>>55530586
Plug everything into pcpartpicker.com and it'll tell you if there are any incompatibility issues.
Your cpu cannot be overclocked anyway (only the ones ending in a K can be) so you don't need to worry about aftermarket cpu coolers. The stock one will be fine.

pcpartpicker is already saying everything is perfectly fine, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't missing anything somehow.


So are there no clear bottlenecks? I'm not sure how to gauge CPU/GPU ability comparatively.

For productivity, go two monitors. Have one monitor for school work, another for gaming.

Personally, since I'm not a FPS or RTS gaymer, more of a casual couch and retro vidya guy, I just have a shitty 900p monitor I got for $10 from a thrift store, and then I have my 32" 1080p TV hooked up and running Steam in Big Picture mode.

You do you, but if I were you, I'd separate work and play however I can.

pcpartpicker is very good at telling you if there are any incompatibilities, so if it's giving you the go ahead your parts are all compatible.

Most games are not cpu bound at all, so the cpu is not very important anyway. Your cpu and gpu are both fine.

what do you plan on using it for?
>>
>>55530783
There's always a bottleneck, but your components are mostly adequate.

>CPU cooler
I recommend the Cryorig H7 or the Evo 212 for something good under $30, Intel's stock coolers are absolutely embarrassing. Probably the H7 is best. You'll be okay for a little while with the stock cooler, but likely at some point you'll want to overclock and for the health of your CPU you should go ahead and get a solid cooler.

>PSU
Your PSU seems like shit. Not even 80+ rated. Don't be afraid to go refurbished on some components. I have a refurbished 80+ 600w EVGA PSU, works well and was much cheaper. The EVGA 600w 80+ Bronze is $40 on amazon, much better than the PSU you picked.

>>55530895
For the same price sans the $10 rebate, the Cryorig H7 is better than the 212 in most ways and would also look really nice in your build.

I'm sure you've already got a bigger HDD you plan to install, right? If not, just forget the SSD and get a 7200rpm 1TB or 2TB HDD.

not an issue, your computer will suck in FAR more dust when it's up and running thanks to fans, than it will collect in the time you spend building it.

What's a good Atx Mid tower around $100 that:
>Has good air flow - noise doesn't matter

>Window is a plus but not necessary
Fan mounts are cool and all, but I won't be water cooling, so that's not a concern.
I've been looking at cases like the Nzxt H440, but I don't like the restrictive air flow. I like the Noctis 450, but it's just a liiittle too pricey.
Corsiar 500r seems good, but it's kind of old, and it's optical drive will just get in the way. I won't Corsair 600c looks pretty good, but it's in that $139 bracket - would prefer to shave off a few dollars.

You think that buying a monitor is an investment. This is completely retarded.

I had one friend like this. He bought many games on Steam, each worth a few sents, and was very happy earning US$1.25 one week, selling his cards.

What makes you pro is having someone, like MANUFACTURERS OF "PRO" AND "GAYMER" HARDWARE, paying you to show their brand. What they sell is bait to make them richer.

Like Yu-Gi-Oh!, you know? Spending hundreds of dollars on cards will not make you better. You'll lose money, and lose money again if you manage to go to some kind of local championship. You're being baited.

There's no point to overclocking the i5 right now, you will not bottleneck much of anything running at 3.5ghz and you will just reduce the potential lifespan of the processor while heating up your case.

Overclocking is for cheaper Pentium, i3, AMD, or just older processors to squeeze out better per-core performance.

I am trying to root my Samsung SM-J100VPP running android version 5.1.1

KingRoot works, but after rebooting it's unrooted again despite showing the custom boot screen. I've also tried to replace KingRoot with SuperSU using supersume while it's rooted, but when I start superSUme it doesn't progress at all past the first initializing phase.

Is there any way to fix this? If not, how can I remove KingRoot without supersu? It's uninstall button is greyed out in the applications menu of settings.

Thanks in advance for any help. This is so frustrating I'm about ready to rip my hair out

I have an question that I think might be interesting:

Question: Will Gameworks actually benefit pc gamers with high end processors running AMD GPUs in the future with DX12/Vulkan?

Reasoning: If gameworks forces the CPU to handle certain graphics loads, will Vulkan/DX12 make that easier and give less load to the GPU?

I'm looking more at higher end processors like any current i7.

Gameworks is proprietary Nvidia, like physx. It doesn't benefit anyone, not even Nvidia. Look at how Kepler cards on release first suffered because they couldn't adjust tessellation levels while AMD users could and did so with The Witcher 3.

This has some work related data on it that would be nice to not lose. It's not mine, so obviously there's no backup. What's the success rate if I send it off to some recovery center, and is it worth the up to 400 euro prices some of them list for mechanical failure recovery?
