Is the Zenfone 2 the best phone with an x86 processor or is there something better?
Is the OP3 a meme?
Is the Note 7 the best performance phone out there or is there something better?
There's literally nothing wrong with BSD

No drivers.
Proprietary blobs in every kernel (named totally-not-blobs-blob-is-the-word-for-drivers-please-believe-us-teehee for your convenience).
More like, there's nothing right with BSD.

too late, bought a 1060 instead
Couldn't care less. Where the fuck are the 470s?
>>55931952
And they're shipping to the manufactures in the next 2 weeks, wich means we won't see stocks full of customs until september.
God, I only ask for AMD to do things right for a change...

I love restoring old computers, do you?
>>55930073
>tfw I will never own a comfy SGI setup
it might be kind of amusing to restore the casing or something and replace the internals with more modern components, but i worry that like most gimmicky things i would get kind of tired of it a few weeks later and then i'd be stuck with a very obnoxious reminder of that thing i spent all those hours doing that wasn't research or thesis writing.
>>55930085
>replace the internals with more modern components

Just pulled the trigger on this.

I implore you to try Vivaldi again, it's getting really good desu
https://vivaldi.net/en-US/teamblog/139-snapshot-1-3-551-17-further-bugfixing
Problems with other browsers:
Opera - Shit tier mouse gestures you cannot edit
Firefox - Becoming meme software before our very eyes, slow
Edge - Seems fast but really isn't once you install an addon
Chrome - Spyware
Vivaldi is very good but unfortunately falls short on two areas, the first is the UI lag which I'm afraid cant be helped as they chose a retarded implementation, the other is that they use chromium engine which is bloated compared to presto. But as it stands it is the least shit compromise avalible.
>>55928951
Fuck off with your shit tier meme.
I tried it and I wasn't impressed.

I'm excited to see how many more group policy settings they take away from my Pro version with these updates. Missing options make managing everything so much more streamlined because I have less to think about and fiddle with.
Why can't a gtx 950 play doom at 60fps on 1080p but a ps4 can for like 90% of the time. is it because of console optimization ? I don't really don't see the point of budget builds then if a ps4 will outperform them.
not bushing pc gaming just budget builds my rig runs doom smooth as fuck at 1080p with a 970.
>>55927756
Same settings?
>>55927756
Have you tried comparing IQ?
>>55927756
>is it because of console optimization
Yes you fucking tard. That and PC versions usually have much higher texture resolutions and more demanding visual effects requiring better hardware in general.
>actually expecting a $150 GPU to run brand new games at 60 FPS at max settings
>>55927771
Of course not.

Information about how to build a pc, how to select components, and much, much more advice.
- Post your list, rate other anon's, ask questions in general.
- Always state the purpose of your PC and your budget. If asking for improvements, state whether you want to price improved or the quality.
I'm just making this because I think it's nice to consolidate this discussion, rather than having a dozen pcpartpicker threads per hour. Feel free to suggest changes to the OP.

>If asking for improvements, state whether you want to price improved
God damn it, so close. Oh well, I'm not making another for a while.
>>55925289
I will make one op, don't worry.
>>55925289
Well, Just to kick things off, this is my attempt at getting the absolute most In-game frames per dollar, poorfag mode. The goal is to have a good looking system that gets high frame-rates in games, but stay as budget as possible. This means ram must have heat spreaders(for looks), semi-modular psu at least, ect. I'm not actually building it, just a mental exercise I suppose.
>why no SSD?
Not necessary for the goal of the build.
>why no rx 480 4gb?
Impossible to find, stock cooler is garbage any way.
>why no r9 390?
Same price as 1060, but about 10% lower power, except games that use the async compute.

Sup /g/, just ran into some ransomware
Downloaded a version of photoshop from piratebay, went to install, clicked on setup, but then stopped it because the description mentioned needing a keygen, but no keygen was included and there was just the one file
Despite stopping, something kept using my system resources like a hog, so I rebooted.
Reboot worked fine, but shortly after boot I got a message popup "inititalizing setup" or something.
Immediately turned the computer off again, booted in safe mode.
Worked again, but I didn't want to push my luck any further and turned it off after 5-20 seconds and grabbed my laptop to post here.
Checking a few other photoshop torrents (ones with actual comments) a user mentioned the one I used was ransomeware.
tl;dr - ransomeware attempting to install, hasn't succeeded yet but will continue if I boot the computer up.
wat do
Photoshop is like $10/month you poor fuck. You can find $10 picking up change in a parking lot every day. Next time install GIMP and don't be so cancerous.

Take the drive out, rescue files with linux, reinstall Windows.
>pro tip: installing Linux only will allow you to run any pirate software in wine with no risk of viruses.
>>55924720
You should back up your files and remove botnet.
installing linux will give peace
