If you want help:
>Assemble your parts list
https://pcpartpicker.com/
>State the budget for your build (and country if not the USA)
>List games/software you use often, as well as your monitor resolution + refresh rate
>Clarify your goal for build improvements: lower price or improved specs?
How to assemble a PC, select components & more (kind of outdated)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
>G4560/G4600 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R5 1400 - Cheapest quad core you can get (Ryzen 3 soon)
>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 - 144hz only
>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.
Buying used is perfectly fine for budgets (PSU excluded)

Samefag here.
How much of a difference is there in emulator performance between the 7700K and the R7 1700? Is there relative parity between the two when running, say, Dolphin, RPCS3, PCSX2, or Cemu?
>>
>>61299172
Depends on the emulator. I would say 7700k still is heavily favored because most emulators are hobby projects and thus heavily single threaded.

tell me about elixir/erlang

>>61299011
Erlang is pretty awesome. Did a report on it earlier in the year. Really reliable. Everything has it's own "process" and you send messages between them in order to pass stuff around. These processes make it "object oriented" in the purest sense with each process handling it's own and messages the only way to get between them. Great for telecom or web servers where you need high reliability.
Elixir is a fork of Erlang that adds extra shit. Think of a c/c++ relationship
>>
I learned both, elixir is cancer, tries too hard to be like ruby, go for erlang
>>
What IDE is usable for them? Currently using Emacs and Alchemist package, but before picking up Elixir I bailed on Emacs twice already.

What's a good vehicle camera that works well and is not buggy?
I bought a Vantrue one and the battery on it sucks and you have to run a wire to the electric socket to keep it running.

A119 or A119S, on Amazon the Spytec one or Viofo
A119 has wider FOV and higher res, but no Sony chip.
A119S has Sony chip and supposedly better night detail, but limited to 1080p and narrower FOV.
Dont forget to get the len filter too

>vehicle camera
>battery
Unless the vehicle is something like a motorcycle, battery is not the route you want to go. In fact I intentionally removed the battery from my dashcam. This is because batteries degrade over time, especially in heat, and I didn't want to make that a failure point of my camera. Instead I replaced it with a large capacitor which holds just enough charge to let the shutdown process finish smoothly when I turn off the car.
It is perfectly normal for the camera to be powered from a wire, even if you want it to operate in "parking mode" while the vehicle is unattended. The camera will not run down your vehicle battery in this low power state. Being plugged in while driving ensures that the camera is always able to function and that you're not at the whim of a dead battery, forgetting to start recording, etc.
All of that having been said: look up Techmoan on YouTube. He's got a whole playlist of dashcam reviews. Start with the newest ones and watch for his very fair and complete assessments. I use a pretty old and feature-poor one myself so that might not suit your purposes.

Can I have some help with a new pc build I've recently put together. I purchased the following parts ~3 weeks ago: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QG26zM
After watching several youtube tutorials as well as carefully reading the manuals, I set off to build my pc. I followed instructions, attached every cable to the motherboard as the manual said, and the thing wont even cut on. I'm ready to post pictures or show any info about this build, and I really need help.

Why in the fuck is windows 10 two different prices at best buy in Canada? I am talking about the exact same version NOT "pro" NOT "OEM" license I know what both of those are, I am talking about the "normal windows 10 home" one cost $150 the other is $190??? Am I missing something? The only thing that is different is on the higher priced one it says 64bit and the other doesn't say what version it is at all, if you read in the description its say how much ram you need to run the 64bit or 32bit implying it is both and that's the cheaper one. On top of this they have the 32bit on there as well and that one is $170 so i am totally confused by it.

Hi friends
I just got VOIP service from Comcast, I need this for work. My understanding is that you plug in a regular phone into the modem to make and take calls, but is there any way to do that while using my PC and a headset connected to my PC? Thanks friends.

You should call Comcast and ask. I have no idea if they make software for that purpose.

The cryptocurrency mining is the very definition of a ponzi scheme, people think they can make money off of the speculation around it right now, but it IS a ponzi scheme.
Any profit anyone is making is coming out of the pockets of those who are trying to do the same but are buying it at the wrong time. (gambling, speculation deciding the 'right' time)
The only ones who make reliable money off of this are the exchanges, who take hilariously big cuts for their service (to turn it into actual money).
Incredible amounts of power are being wasted over this scheme, it's depressing.
There is no service being rendered, nothing productive being done. The money is all coming out of the pockets of people who are being screwed (though it's by their own greed). If you are ok with getting money off of the backs of other gamblers/speculators and speeding up global warming in the process then you too may be the right kind of sociopath to get into cryptocurrency.
