NVIDIAMD
The ultimate processing conglomerate
i thought this was considered "the unholy combo"
If you can afford a 1080ti you sure as fuck aren't going to buy an AMD processor.

Will six-core i5 make Ryzen 5 irrelevant?
>>61860693
>6 core 6 threads
vs
>6 core 12 threads
>>61860693
Those are all numbers from rumors.
>>61860693
Why even bother? Just get a quad core with SMT for cheaper. I5 is irrelevant thanks to Ryzen.

Serious question - do most of you hate macos / osx as an operating system, or just hate that it is apple's?
Pretending Apple doesn't exist, if macos was released tomorrow as a distro, how many people do you think would switch? I guess by its nature it isn't as customizable as things people are using now, but would the stability ot ease of use or whatever balance that out for most people?
>>61858009
I don't hate it, is just a limited OS and you can do LIMITED things on it... If you wanna have full potential of your system, then use a pc like a proper tech guy
>>61858029
What does osx limit you from doing other than taking screenshots from a DVD?

How to assemble a PC, select components & more (kind of outdated)
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php?title=Build_a_PC
CPUs:
No i5 unless discounted
>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
>i7 7700k - Only for 144hz
>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
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.
The Ryzen lineup comes with surprisingly good stock coolers. consider using them over any <$30 cooler.
What are the chances vega will be serious competition to 1080ti?
>>61857634
Zero, it's a 1080 competitor at best

Just got myself a Raspberry Pi 3. It's perfectly usable as a Desktop browser.
Why aren't you surfing the net on a Pi /g/? Why are you wasting all those watts on a desktop?
Because utilities are included in my rent
>perfectly usable
I'm on a cloudbook and I'd call it "just about usable" as a browser. I wouldn't be able to tolerate a Pi.
Enjoy you Broadcom blobs with sjw cucks.

Are we getting a new thread of using this one?
/g/ completely and utterly BTFO.
https://www.thurrott.com/mobile/microsoft-surface/132728/consumer-reports-microsoft-surface-dead-last-reliability
CR says that Apple computers have the lowest breakage rate after 2 years of use. Microshit has the highest. Lenovo and their ChinkPads have 110% higher breakage rate.
Moral of the story? Never trust /g/ shills.
>>61852973
>acer is 3rd
at the first glance you can tell this graph is bullshit.
>>61852973
Wish they broke that down per product range, rather than per brand.
Dell and Lenovo make mostly shitty $300 cunsumer crap.
Doesn't sat much about XPS or Thinkpad ranges.
>>61852973
>Moral of the story?
Never trust a graph where sub-200€ pc are compared to 2000€ pc

I found something called GNOME Tweaks which used to be called Gnome Tweak Tool. For some retarded reason, the Ubuntu GNOME doesn't bundle it with the main distro.
It does let me change font scaling. I still haven't figured out how to reduce window and icon size though.
