Are these stock coolers just as good as a Evo 212?
>>59082596
Doesn't matter, Ryzen won't get them
>>59082606
1700 has those, you lying shill
>>59082596
The Wraith Max is about equal to a Hyper 212 Evo, but you can't actually buy a 1700X or 1800X with one at retail. They're only for system builders. The 1700 comes with the Spire, but we don't know how good that is yet.
Like really?
This is why it's important for AMD to get in there. If Intel has a monopoly we get price gouged.
>>59082322
not OP but I can agree, while I've personally never had an AMD ... anything really, competition is always a good thing. Better prices, both companies striving for more advancement/research etc.
>>59082322
Pretty much, Amd getting back on the track is good for everyone. Intel fanboys should realize that a price drop surely awaits them.
Name better laptop than Thinkpad T420 for it's price.
>Pro tip: You can't
Can we all agree that T420 is basically /g/'s version of 86 from Initial D? It will do everything that modern laptops can do.

>Can we all agree that T420 is basically /g/'s version of 86 from Initial D?
yes, of course.
because it's the driver/user that has the biggest impact.
>>59082271
Of course.
I still remember playing plenty of shit with an upgraded quad core processor and a desktop gtx 1050ti via expresscard.

It's a bit too heavy and thick, though.
I'm going to use pic related as my main OS until support ends and then switch to GNU/Linux forever. How about you?
I stopped using Windows like 8 years ago
>>59082232
Windows for me is just for games.
>>59082245
OP here. Gotta use some Windows specific software ony my desktop and on my laptop it greatly improves battery life while making battery management easier. I guess I could get the same results if I had the motivation to get into TLP or TPL or whatever it's called but right now I just don't. I only game occasionally but there's just no denying that Windows 7 is a million times more comfy than anything that Microsoft produced since 2009.
How does one unbotnet and fix the retarded modern UI in Windows 10? Can it even be done?
>Law #2: If a bad guy can alter the operating system on your computer, it's not your computer anymore.
>>59081972
I suggest using win7 or 8.1 with some disabled settings
>>59081972
>How does one unbotnet
1) Set up most basic settings in UI
2) Read:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/itpro/windows/manage/manage-connections-from-windows-operating-system-components-to-microsoft-services
and configure policies you need.
3) Run PowerShell, list packages with "get-appxpackage" and remove unwanted ones with "remove-appxpackage" (but check, which one you really want to go out)
4) Repeat with list of provisioned packages ("get-appxprovisionedpackage -online" and "remove-appxprovisionedpackage -packagename xxx -online")
and you get as "debotneted" Win10 as you can get.
Decide for yourself, if thats enough for you.
>fix the retarded modern UI in Windows 10
You cant.

I had that exact same one, exactly, when i was a kid. My granddad bought it in a shop in texas I don't know where.

It is a preset frequency pretty much so you can't use it on just any radio frequency. And the range is decent but not as good as an ordinary radio.
Ryzen DOA because of plain science.

Get out.
The reality is the red line hre. Literally no gayme does more than 10%.
The pink line here is practically 90% of desktop usage. at best.

As soon as a game starts using at least a core more than 4, Kabylake shits the bed, why do you think Intel is trying to get out the 6 core Coffee Lake out so fast?
>>59081846
The Haswell-E and Broadwell-E chips handle frame drops a lot better than the mainstream quad cores too. Its harder to pin down for benchmarking without playing the game and recording tons of footage, but when a lot is going on in a scene, particularly when a ton of stuff is loading in, quad core chips experience harsher minimum frame rates.
Hiro said we can have a thread to talk about our board, so let's do it.
Is /g/ the best board?
How do we make /g/ better?
No.

You don't have to use Windows 10. There is no processor in existence that does such a thing and that's not going to change anytime soon.

Can I do something to make this baby cooler? It's sometimes getting pretty loud even when playing videos. It's been serving me well for seven years already but I've been neglecting it. Still using stock cooling like pic related.
I'm wondering whether I should replace it with something better and/or add the thermal paste.
