No, there are a lot of great games out there for Linux, I just need a stable distro not written by complete amateurs.

Now I know it's 2017, and you are either smart enough to not get a virus or the virus you get will ransom your computer and a reformat is essentially your only option.
But I have been asked by normies to recommend a good antivirus client. My usual advice is "avoid viruses".
But if pressed I don't really know what amswer to give and I was wondering what /g/ thought on the matter?

This is basically like saying "I'm going to go walking around at night in gang territory and don't want to get killed, what's the best bullet proof vest to wear?" An antivirus isn't like a condom, you can't just wear it before going on a dirty site to protect yourself.

On topic OP. It's pretty much as you suspect. Either you avoid viruses and you're never infected or you get a virus because you're an idiot and you need to reformat to clear it out.
Antiviruses only exist so that low level techies have something to blame.

Resistance at $14.5, I expect it won't go much further before ER.
Intel is shitting the bed again on the other side though.

told my father to buy around 10 and picked up 300 shares
when we got back from vacation he rounded it up to 500 total shares yesterday.
Is it normal that mounting a fan on the side windows makes more noise than a jet taking off? I think it's the honeycomb-like grid's fault, but if that's the case, why putting it there in the first place?

Use front + bottom + back biggest size possible
>>
>>61043112
I already have a front intake + back exhaust, both 140mm, and I bought another one (Noctua NF-A14, 140mm). Everyone praised it for its quietness, but as soon as I popped it in, it seemed to be ina fucking airport. I tried unscrewing it from the side panel, and it was in fact quieter. Do these case designers know what the fuck they're doing? Also, I tried placing it on the bottom of the case, but it seems to be doing jackshit
>>
>>61043080
I think what's happening is the side panel isn't as rigid as the rest of the fan mounting areas, so the fan is probably causing a vibration. It would have been smart for the case maker to add some ribs to reinforce the panel with the fan mount.

1700 much better at multithreaded performance

1700 $50 cheaper, doesn't require OC capable motherboard to overclock
7700K has toothpaste under the lid which can lead to temp issues when OCing

Obviously, because you're a blub who can't understand anything higher than C.

You are so fucking stupid if you cannot even follow a conversation properly.
You must have an IQ below 90.
You make all other C programmers look bad, just do all other C programmers a favor and kill yourself.

Ctards have to write their own version of the standard library to make it go fast because their language is so shit.
Have fun not being productive at all.
C++ doesn't have this problem, you don't have to reimplement the standard library to make it go fast, it can be inlined by design.

That's literally the difference anon.
What the fuck did you expect if not wider soundstage and more clarity and seperation? Unless you're specifically buying nigger bass headphones you got exactly what you should expect.

It's pretty cheap actually, there's domains as cheap as 80 cents, and you can get a low-end VPS for 5$/month.
Anyway if you want a blog, just use blogger. It's the most costumizable.

What features are there that differentiate AM4 motherboards? I know with intel boards the main difference is whether certain features are "unlocked" and whether or not your CPU "supports" said features. But with AMD all the features work with all the chips and nothing is locked/restricted to expensive boards and chips right?

Like in all cases, motherboards only differ with chipset(irrelevant for AMD), number of ports/slots, (official)memory support, VRMs/caps/mosfets and component cooling and audio/NIC quality.
tl;dr mostly build quality, the first thing I look for in a mobo is the NIC.
>>
>>61042333
X370 has more IO, SLI/Crossfire support vs B350. Thats in the chipset, outside of that X370 boards usually have extras like better VRMs, more cooling, RGB and such. I really applaud AMD for not going the Jewtel route by gimping your CPU and forcing to spend more money just to overclock.
>>
>>61042333
>>61042792
Not OP but which X370 motherboard is the best for overclocking?
