Should I try to buy the Vega56 for 399$/€ or wait for a improved version. My old graphic card died 3 weeks ago. My limit is 400€. Do you think the next improved version of the 56 will cost more?
>>62018579
You mean 499*
>>62018579
Good lucky buying it for any price before it gets sold out instantly.
>>62018579
>399$/€
It's 499 goy
Speccy thread.
>>62018355
sure
m'lady
There are few interesting threads right now and I'm bored out of my mind. I know AMA threads are sort-of frowned upon, but if we keep it /g/ related, it should be okay.
I'm a CS PhD student working in project with alongside a company that makes hardware and software for PCIe-based interconnects. I'm not so into hardware stuff, and more of a software guy.
Ask me anything related to tech or to academia, and I'll answer as best I can.

what did you have for lunch 3 days ago and would you have it again?
>>62018301
How many dicks have you sucked?
technically speaking, how long is your dongle?
I'm absolutely retarded.
I just got a letter from my isp regarding this shit.
I even went up on their site and gave them my IP.
Am I fucked?

Why do ricefags exist?
They are the most useless form of Linux user. All they do is make terminal color schemes and set up anime wallpapers. On top of that, they pretend to be good at computers by putting python scripts in their rice screenshots and trying to do everything via the CLI.
Why spend all that time installing a distro designed for maximum configurability if you just want the cool screenfetch logo?
Seriously ricefags need to GTFO.
I did it on Windows a couple of years back. It's the same reason why most people post on Facebook: social approval.
>>62017588
Well, I do install arc-dark theme because it's better for my eyes.
But generally speaking and a development psychiatrist, all the ricers I've met are pedophiles. They watch anime and more often than not use something called ARCH Linux.

How to assemble a PC, select components & more (outdated)
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php?title=Build_a_PC
CPUs:
No i5 unless discounted
>G4560 - poverty-tier builds
>R3 1200 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R3 1300x - Good stop-gap between the 1500x and the 1200, only get a 1400 if you absolutely need multithreading
>R5 1500x - Good but up to 1600 if you can
>R5 1600 - Best value for higher fps gaming / mixed usage; 1600x if you want higher stock clocks
>R7/Used Xeon/Threadripper - Compute/Multitask/VM/mixed use; Not for just gaming
GPUs:
Coin miners have driven price up and stock down, waiting to buy a GPU might be wiser
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and very light games
>GTX 1050(Ti) - Lower end budget cards, drop settings on newer games, RX560 beaten by both
>RX570 - 1080p@60~hz maxed, running most maxed older games at 100~Hz
>RX580 and GTX1060 6GB - 1080p@80hz maxed, 1440p@60hz at lower settings; RX580 better in newer games
>GTX 1070 - 1080p@130hz /1440p@60hz at high
>GTX 1080 - 1080p@144hz / 1440p@60hz maxed, 4k@60hz in a few games; Probably the highest end card you need for 1080p/1440p
>GTX 1080Ti - 1440p@144hz and 4k@60hz maxed/high in many games
>Good fucking luck even getting a VEGA right now
RAM:
>Check your Mobo QVL before buying any RAM
>Ryzen CPUs benefits a lot from high speed RAM
General:
ALWAYS LOOK AT PRODUCT REVIEWS!
Always consider an SSD. Try buying a large SSD for what you'd pay for your SSD+HDD combined, and add a HDD later
NVMe SSDs aren't for a faster OS boot, they're for productivity/scratch disk/VMs. NVMe and M.2 are not the same thing, M.2 is a form factor
death to miners

Eclipse thread, boardly reminder that space is still technology so get off your asses and stare directly at the sun. Also, its happening
>>62017488
why do you people care about it? and what do you expect to see? that's not mundane as fuck
Can I just punch a hole in a notecard and look at it through there?
Space is not technology. If you have to preface your OP with "X IS TECHNOLOGY", its not actually technology.
Pls go.
So who's getting a Vive now that the price dropped? The Rift sale is ending this week but HTC is dropping the price of the Vive. I'm a little annoyed, I just got mine two weeks ago. Oh well, whatever. The thing is still rad though.
>>62017444
/g/ isn't too poor for VR are they?
>>62017444
I've had my Rift for a bit over a week now? Still enjoying it. I'll probably hit the 2nd gen vive, when it includes the knucks.
>>62017848
The Knuckles look awesome. Do we have any word on a release date?
Konqi is professional and stylish, just like KDE!

How can Android even compete? I'm getting a 6S soon.
>>62016174

Android can do this too with modifications, the reason it doesn't do that automatically by default is because it's a security risk. If you connect once it'll automatically reconnect until you remove the configuration, though.

can someone please help? I just saw a review of the 600s that said they cant be powered from a phone. Is there any reason I should not get the M40x? what are some others I should look into?
>Requires Intel® 300 Series chipset-based motherboard
Skylake and Kabylake owners start to question whether they would still take a bullet for Intel®.
>>62015217
Intel is legacy. Next PC will be AMD.

I imagine this is like waking up and finding Brian JUSTnich himself taking a long piss into your morning coffee.
