1. What is considered a good black depth for an LCD display? Is 0.35 cd/m2 good?
2. What is considered a good contrast ratio for an LCD display? Is 800:1 good?
>>
>>55585524
those are fine, and you should only really care about those specs if you read measurements from independent reviewers, because e.g. a contrast ratio of 3000:1 is most likely a "dynamic" contrast ratio, so that at any given time the contrast might actually be 800:1 but the monitor changes in brightness to emphasize bright/dark scenes in movies and games

Going to start using a password manager since I use the same password for almost everything.
What I'm confused about though is what happens if you need to access an account from another PC? For example I install 1Password, iCloud keychain or something (What is OUR recommended password manager?) on my home PC and some time later on a foreign PC I want to access my email. Am I fucked?

Just use Keypass and stick a copy of the software and your db on a usb stick encrypted with something like Truecrypt.
>>
1. Don't use 1password, use pass instead ( http://www.passwordstore.org ).
2. Use git to sync the encrypted files.

Keepass is the only answer.
Everything else is gay cloud botnet shit.

Hey niggas, any idea what is causing this shit?
My internet is getting maxed out by this connection, to what seems to be my ISP. No downloads are running, no windows updates or anything like that. I've tried rebooting the router and my pc, the connection just comes right back. It's been doing this since last night
I just want it to stop

Hai guise.
Is it worth it to dish out the moneys to buy a 1080 next month instead of a 1070.. custom cooler, of course, but still.
Not gonna bump ot 1440p/4k in a while due to shitty 1080p monitor but eventually I might get at least a G-sync one. Halp?

Get an rx 470 crossfire. More power than 1070 for $299
In DX12 and Vulcan crossfire actually doubles the power of the cards.

I got my 4GB gtx 680 for 50aud, and almost a year later I got a free Korean ips monitor, 30 inch 1600p.

How can someone confuse a 290x with a 295x2? I mean thats a killer deal for you but whoever sold that is a chump.

Heya /g/
So I've been using a GTX 770 from Asus for 3 years now and I feel like it's time to upgrade. Pic related, the 1070, looks like an ideal graphics card for me. I have the money and everything ready, I can even get it for 10-15% off, but first I want to hear your opinion on this.
Is it worth it or should I wait some more before I buy a new one?

Why should I? I'm mostly gonna stick with 1080p for now, all I need is a card that can max out games and maybe allow me to run them at a higher resolution so I see less jaggies.
