There are people who DON'T have an Intel CPU?
Can someone explain the intel vs AMD cpu thing to me? I just bought an AMD processor and everyone was giving me shit about it, now I'm paranoid. I can still return it, but I want to know if it's just some retarded console war style bullshit or if it actually has some merit.
>>55587460
They're both fine for general use; in fact, for general computer use outside of bleeding edge gaymen, new CPUs could probably be considered way overpowered.
It's just bullshit memery, mostly by people who don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
>>55587460
Dont listen to retards. AMD is fine.

Holy shit, how the hell did I get away with not getting a bingo on this one?

>I would watch >24 fps movies if they were actually available yet
>I own a 4K display but it's not classified as a TV
>>55587653
look at benchmarks, look at power consumption. it's pretty simple. their 220W seemingly top of the line consumer CPU compared to a 90W intel i7-4790K performs worse.
The intel processor costs more, but performs better and consumes less than half of the power
>>55577507
almost
Even though only 50% of the things listed are actually placebo
>>55587460
>but I want to know if it's just some retarded console war style bullshit or if it actually has some merit.
I'll explain it to you: OP is a stupid gamer from /v/, and therefore he measures CPUs solely by their video game FPS and not by how well they actually are at CPU-intensive tasks.
Since Intel vs AMD tends to matter very little in video games, he therefore calls all uses of intel processors “placebo” because he cannot possibly fathom that people use their CPUs for things other than gaming.
>>55577507
IPS actually has superior color and viewing angles to TN and even *VA
Audiophile headphones is a way too broad term
SSDs are way better than HDDs for common tasks
Nowadays most smartphones come with >720p displays
HDDs need to be defragmented or be used with an alright FS
You have to use a DAC to listen to music with your ears until we make computer to brain connectors
Intel CPUs are better than AMD in power usage, stability, OS compatibility, temperatures and generally way better
You can't install lens on digital cameras
Self-built computers are cheaper then prebuilt ones
To have alright latency when playing guitar plugged to computer dedicated soundcards are often needed
<1080p monitors look like shit
16:10, 4:3, 5:6 and 1:1 are the only good common resolutions
120hz refresh rate is not placebo
>>55587653
Did a quick google search for something I'm personally interested in (x264 encoding performance), and it turns out that the measly 65W i7 6700 outperforms the 220W FX-9590 8-core flagship by up to 50%

Just get an old CRT or LCD as the second monitor, still better than bot having one and you should be able to get it real cheap.
Nice bait OP
>flux/similars
it's fine I don't really see a huge benefit but it's free you mongol
>defragmenting HHDs
A hard drive can be defragmented just fine you'd run into problems if you did it on a SSD. It's better to do a fresh install and a backup beforehand but defragmenting is ok too.
>720p smartphones
can be used to watch no-commentary gameplays of new games which the interface has small words that you can't really read on small resolutions it's also great for streaming anime from a home server to your smartphone
>cameras
I don't use cameras and I don't do much research on them so I have no opinion on that but I do know that almost non-existent shutter lag and 60fps HD recording + good day/night recording + good focus is what people should look for
>linux for security
enjoy fixing your parents windows machines every time you visit them because it's been 2 years and mine are doing just fine with debian + gnome ublock is also helping them out
