I need to buy a new desktop computer just to play the Steam games and a few other games like city builders (Banished, etc.) I want to play - and also so I have an additional computer - but I don't want to drop a shitload of cash into it. Right now I'm getting by pretty easily on an older (I think 2007ish?) computer just using the onboard graphics and sound, but I literally can't play any games on it except Hearthstone badly (higher graphics won't work on it). The main game I want to play requires both a graphics card and sound card that have Direct X 11 or better and I'm not sure how to rate the quality of video onboard gpus provide (comparing discreet graphics cards is hard enough). Do motherboards even list what version of Direct X their onboard sound is using? I'm pretty new at this. I should also mention I want a motherboard which is VGA compatible, since I tend to use CRT monitors because I hate how LCD displays warp the shit out of colors (LED are misnamed - they're still LCD). Don’t be fucking autists over this last point. Seriously. Deal with it and move on.
>blah blah blah blah blah
You don't need to game that much, grow up.
Just get a new mobo with a 1151 socket and get either a skylake or kaby lacke processor and run games at medium settings with the Intel HD graphics.
If you are playing Cities, Banished, a good integrated GPU will suffice, and intel has really stepped up its game there in the past few years. By the way, your writing makes you come off as an insufferable cunt, and I don't just say that because of epic 4chan banter. If this is bait, I bit a chunk of it off.
also, get a real monitor, its 2016. Seriously. Deal with it and move on.
Get a $50 APU and be done with it.

APU
And you can easily find motherboards with vga

hi facebook
Can I still install it as an add-on?
So I visited my parents a few days ago and they gave me some of the old desktops we used to have because they would throw them away otherwise. What I got was
>Dell Dimension 4300
>Dell Dimension 8300
>HP Pavilion a1657c
What the fuck should I do with these? I don't want them to go to waste and figure I can use them somehow.
>>55948194
Retro-sleeper rigs
Plastidip the old components and use them as decoration
Use the empty shells to build a 1080p gaming rig

Pretty much the first thing
If it has an AGP slot, slap a voodoo in that bitch and install Windows 98
That HP was my first computer in my room.
I never knew what that big ass hole was for.

>an engineer who is designing a car makes a mistake and one part is prone to breaking
The company loses a shit ton of money in recalls, people won't buy its cars again.
>an architect who is designing a building makes a mistake and the roof leaks
He has to pay a lot of money in compensations and his career is probably fucked up.

Do you want good enough software with fairly quick fixes when bugs happen or do you want to pay for the highest level of unit and interaction testing that takes 100% more time to handover?

You can run an external GPU through it with a small power supply + graphics card.

My W510 would lose the wireless card if I ran an egpu sadly
Can you motherfuckers stop using the word "reformat"? It makes you look like fucking retards
>i just reformated my computer ((reinstalled windows / GNU/Linux))
Wrong.

"Reformatted" does not = Clean install

What the fuck are you on about
they put extra weights in the smaller models, of course
>>55947845
OP is confused by a smaller thing weighing the same as a larger thing.
I have a simple question /g/.
Is it at all possible to do this? To duplicate/project my monitor's feed to an LCD TV?
Or must I connect directly to my PC, as my monitor does?
The latter
>>55947739
you'll need a peripheral which can split the hdmi into two, and you'll need an extra cord to do this.
i dont know of any monitor capable of what you're asking, esp since vga is aids
>>55947739
this could be possible using displayport, but not hdmi + vga
Nokia - what went wrong?
