So, what's the real value of such "Gaming" modem/router?
Why there's a premium to pay for something that has a "smart" QoS that doesn't even let you set bandwidth usage?
How much does this kind of shit really costs to produce to the manufacturers?
Sure is good to have plenty of Wi-Fi connectivity options, but, ffs, for 150€ (sorry americunts, I saw you have to pay around 220 bucks for crap like this) at least put something that lets you make some effective use of such feature.

Is there something interesting I can do with crap like this, except letting it fly from the window?
So, anons, are you flashing your modems/routers?
Didya dodge the gaming shilling or you're a retard like me?

Is there such a thing as an all in one pc that is relatively cheap and can be used for gaming? (600-700) price range? Maybe something better than onboard graphics. Is it possible to have a gaming PC with that price?

Hi, i tried running some software in a Windows VM on Linux host, however my Internet Connection was quite slower inside the VM as on the host.
Is this normal, or is there a way to fix such an issue?
Any tips welcome!!

Found a trashed 2011 imac. Pretty much everything was junk except the stand and some ram.

Anyone have ideas for what i can use this for? Would it be try-hard to use the pivoting mount on it to weld a VESA mount to it, and slap a regular 22" monitor?

Need to buy a new SD card for my android phone (Huawei P9 lite). I found these, but I can't decide which of them is better. They seems to be the same, but the opinions are different. Which of them should I buy?

/pcbg/: Post your component list; rate other anons'; ask questions in general.

State the PURPOSE of your PC & BUDGET. State COUNTRY if not USA.
List GAMES/SOFTWARE you use often. List resolution & hz if gaming.
Seeking build improvements? Clarify goal: lower price or improved specs?
ctrl+f to see if your question was answered already

>Assemble your parts list with price comparisons & compatibility filter.
https://pcpartpicker.com

>Information on how to assemble a PC, select components & more. (somewhat outdated)
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/Build_a_PC

Currently worthwhile CPUs:
>G4560 for budget builds (<$500) unless G4620/i3-6100 is heavily discounted
>i5 aren't worthwhile. Get Ryzen 5, drop down to G4560, or up to i7
>No R5 1400 unless discounted
>i7-6700k is good but pricey. If over budget: consider locked 7700; not chasing 4.8Ghz+ capable when you weren't gonna overclock, or get R5
>Cheap Z270 board is still good for faster memory in games w/ locked 7700, but aren't for overclocking (VRMs suck)
>R7/Xeon for compute/multitask/mixed use

Currently worthwhile GFX cards:
>RX470 , RX480, 1070, 1080, 1080TI
>1060 is worth considering over a 480 if same/cheaper in your country, or you just play games it's better on for the price. 1050Ti is for mITX builds
>470 is all you need for 1080p
>Wait for RX 580 in a few days
>Nvidia GPU + Ryzen has issues in many games atm
>Budget builds: consider integrated graphics over a card weaker than RX470, unless price/performance is better (discounted/used)
>Vega comes in May

General:
>No brand/model loyalty. Parametric filters on pcpartpicker can help
>Consider larger SSD-only for what you budget SSD+HDD combined. Add HDD later once needed
>NVMe aren't worth it just for faster OS boot. They're primarily for productivity as a scratch disk
>Save money w/ mATX case/mobo, and if patient by purchasing your parts individually in flash sales
