CPUs:
No Ryzen unless you want a headache with drivers and RAM compatibility, not worth it. Consider waiting for Coffee Lake (1 month). 8700K is certain to be the fastest gaming CPU, will be competitive in productivity tasks vs 8-core Ryzen (but does anyone actually do anything besides game?).
>GS4560 - Good for the cheapest builds
>i3 - little bit better
>i5 - just buy an i7
>i7 - best chip for today's games
>Threadripper - best chip for productivity
>Skylake X - only good for e-peen measurements

GPUs:
Coin miners increased prices, waiting to buy a GPU might be wiser
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and light games
>GTX 1050(Ti) - Low 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
>Vega is shit

RAM:

>Ryzen CPUs benefits a lot from high speed RAM

General:
LOOK AT PRODUCT REVIEWS
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

Are there any books, blogs, articles, videos about software systems, and how they interact with each-other?
For example, John Carmack always talks about the systems in his games. Something like this, but not necessarily related to games.
Thanks.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., August 24, 2017 — Purism, the social purpose corporation which designs and produces popular privacy conscious hardware and software, has revealed its plans to build the world’s first encrypted, open platform smartphone that will empower users to protect their digital identity in an increasingly unsafe mobile world. After 18 months of R&D to test hardware specifications and engage with one of the largest phone fabricators, Purism is opening a self-hosted crowdfunding campaign to gauge demand for the initial fabrication order and add the features most important to users.

What do I get out of the 100$ difference between the bottom and top tier WRT router? They all look pretty much the same...

Any alternatives with similar capabilities? Looks like everything else is either way to complex or not useful at all.

Just looking for a way to deploy Windows (or any other OS) while being able to configure the install (applications, name/domain etc.)

SCCM is to expensive, compley. I know about FOG and opsi.. what else is there that's more in the league of MDT?

Alright /g/, I'm currently trying to use Windows 10 on a failing hard drive with many pending sectors while waiting for a replacement (I've already made a backup so no worries there.). My current installation has gotten really slow after my hard drive shit the bed, disk usage is always 100% with this System process almost always at the top. Do I just reinstall, or is there anything I can do to fix this?
