Web Development Laptop Anonymous 2017-03-17 06:08:44 Post No. 59442447 [Report] [View this topic]

Hola /g/

I'm looking to buy a new laptop, but I'd like to purchase the correct thing this time around. I don't have a terrible amount of knowledge on hardware.

I'm a front end web developer, and I've been doing dev off a thinkpad running ubuntu.

Any suggestions of what I should upgrade to?

I made the switch after using Debian as my go-to Linux distribution for years. I just jumped right into it and installed FreeBSD a few hours ago. Not sure what direction to head off towards but I hope I'll enjoy the experience.

Installed on Thinkpad X220.

I have a AMD Radeon graphics card which may be not supported by Ubuntu 16.04.
What should I do? Will upgrading to Ubuntu 16.10 or downgrading to 14.04 solve the issue? If yes, will it work as good as the graphics card works on Windows? Also will have to configure my computer or will the system work perfectly after upgrading or downgrading?

Am I damaging my computer by not using a OS supporting the graphics card?
Also my laptop takes like ~50 seconds to boot? Is that because of the incompatible graphics card?

Also I consider Win10 to be badly coded bloated shit.

is it possible to install OSX on a computer that isn't a mac, without an already existing mac?

is there any point? i ask only out of curiousity because i feel like it's odd to try and use only windows and linux without much experience on osx other than what i've touched in retail outlets.

/g/ my hard drive died in my laptop last night so I replaced it today and did a clean install of windows using some recovery media.

Problem is, the drivers didn't auto install(or at least the network driver) so I used my desktop to download all the network drivers for my laptop and installed them but to no avail...I still have no ability to search for any wireless networks or anything.

I've obviously tried extensive amounts of googling but had to come here after exhausting resources

Wat do /g/?

(Other than install gentoo)

Brand new custom pc. What now? Benchmarking? Stress-testing? Anonymous 2017-03-17 05:06:53 Post No. 59441856 [Report] [View this topic]

Friday afternoon, I am taking delivery of all the components I need to build a new pc. I read some posts in other forums where people mentioned that components weren't performing as expected because it was in the wrong slot or whatever reason. Once I get this pc built, I'd like to make sure that the components are running at peak efficiency.

What are some things I should do on day 1 of a new build? Stress test it? Benchmark it? If so, what programs do you recommend? I remember using a program many, many years ago called SiSoft Sandra that gave me an enormous amount of detailed info about my pc. Is that still a solid program? I built a new pc. Now what?

Excellent choice in cases, anon.

As far as testing, go ahead and benchmark it if you want, but basically you just want to use it and see if there are any issues. Monitor your temp and CPU/RAM/HDD/SDD usage periodically for the first few weeks. If everything looks good, you're good to go.

Nice! Hey, is that yours? If so, I have a question for you. Do you have HDDs in the cage below your two fans? If so, do they ever run hot? I am concerned about the hard drive cage getting no air flow. I plan to remove that plate below your two fans in the front so that I can add a third fan down below and along-side the hard drives. I know the HDD cage slides towards the PSU. I know I can fit a 120mm fan in that space. I am going to use the fan that came with the case as the fan for the HDD cage, and I'm going with two Noctua NF-F12's where you have your two front fans.

It is mine, but I don't have any HDDs in there. I have a separate home server with 8TB of storage that I use for actual file storage. On this pc, everything's on SSDs on the detachable mount behind the m/b.

In general though I wouldn't worry *too* much about HDDs getting too hot, but certainly adding another fan would help them. I imagine just removing the shroud without adding an additional fan would get the job done too though.

I told ffmpeg to convert an h264 video to vp9. Everything seemed normal at first, but then this started happening. Is this normal?

Well there's your problem. Stop trying to use linux outside of getting internet points in desktop threads. There's a reason it has like 0.2% market share.

I recently installed Ubuntu to get my feet wet with Linux.

I have no sound. Sound only plays from the headphones I have, and not the monitor itself through HDMI.

I have my monitor connected to an RX480

Any suggestions? [spoiler]I've already tried killing myself[/spoiler]

Really? So you didn't bother to even look at the sound options? Go back to Windows and stay there dumb fuck.
