> Russian cybersecurity company Kaspersky Lab boasts 400 million users worldwide. As many as 200 million may not know it. The huge reach of Kaspersky’s technology is partly the result of licensing agreements that allow customers to quietly embed the software in everything from firewalls to sensitive telecommunications equipment—none of which carry the Kaspersky name.

Makes you wonder how all hardware backdoors read Intel™ dont pull this much press,makes you think huh.

What's wrong with it? Govt agencies use their own certified products. Getting their hands on an untouched hacker's hardware is a wet dream of any security researcher.
I have an i5 7500, Asus gtx 1060 ROG STRIX, 250gb ssd and 1TB hdd. Considering purchasing a 24" 1080p 144hz monitor but will that go down smoothly or am i making a mistake?
Also monitor thread show off your screens
>>61931253
man id stick with a 1080p monitor at 60 hz i have a really nice acer 27 inch that i paid 170 for,60hz is way more reasonable imo
Acer S271HL i think
your build is pretty slick too my bro
>>61931280
cheers my man was going for something reasonably priced but not expensive as fuck that can still run games like csgo and pubg at at least high if not very high graphics, just need a good monitor in $300-$450 price range to finish her off
>>61931253
You could prob get away with it if you like playing games on medium settings.
I still wouldnt bother, 144hz is way overrated, you only really see a diffrence in fps games.
t. owner of 144hz with 1080

>440$ motherboard
>can't be assed to include a 10¢ serial port and instead put a 1¢ header
When will this penny pinching merchant bullshit stop?
>>61931083
Serial port's probably not even remotely used enough to justify a dedicated port when they can simply enable the few who need it to easily add a port.
>>61931083
Stop buying /g/aymer boards and buy workstation/server boards from SuperMicro and this wont be an issue.
>>61931095
It is for console access to things like ESXi or linux without needing a crash cart. My 2U SuperMicro chassis has a front panel serial port for this very reason.
It's a very niche market that both needs a serial port on a stationary device. Practically everybody that needs a serial port is better off getting a usb to serial adapter.
Lets get it going

That's definitely not going to damage the motherboard.

It's not going to damage it, unless you live in japan where quakes rape your ass 12 times a day.
Technology cannot replace humans. Information travels to, and is processed by the human brain at the speed of the light. Regardless of how fast our processors get, they will never be able to achieve switching at light speed. The nature of flip flops and transistors prevents this.
Let's also consider that human optics perceive an infinite resolution, and an infinite number of color possibilities within the visible spectrum. This is another impossibility for robots, due to the nature of digital electronics. A computer would have to be purely analog to perceive detail as well as a human.
Lastly, computers cannot achieve true abstraction. We use abstraction as a buzzword in programming, but true abstraction is completely free and unstructured. The complete opposite of a computer program.

You have provided no sources to any of your claims. Why should I take anything you say as true?
Hi, Terry
>>61930847
The speed of thought is much, much slower than that of light.
Why isn't running a virtual host as your main OS a thing?
Why aren't there virtual host OS's (i.e. minimal linux installs which only run the kernel + virtualbox)?
>setting up a guest os takes like 5 mins
>can easily set up shared folders
>messing your os up isn't a pita anymore
>personal computers have enough ram nowadays
>basically, can't ever fuck anything up anymore if you use a hardened virtual host + do your work in several virtual guests
Why does no one ever talk about this? What are the cons?
Try NixOS
>>61930765
That's the plan for my next server, and it is a thing, it's called a type 1 hypervisor. What you normally think of as a VMM is a type 2 hypervisor.
>>61930778
Not exactly what i had in mind, but very interesting nonetheless! Will probably give it a try
>>61931086
Exactly, thanks man, didnt know this existed. Which os will you use as your type 1 hypervisor?
Are you jelly, /g?

How to assemble a PC, select components & more (outdated)
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php?title=Build_a_PC
CPUs:
No i5 unless discounted
>G4560 - poverty-tier builds
>R3 1200 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R3 1300x - Good stop-gap between the 1500x and the 1200, only get a 1400 if you absolutely need multithreading
>R5 1500x - Good but up to 1600 if you can
>R5 1600 - Best value for higher fps gaming / mixed usage; 1600x if you want higher stock clocks
>R7/Used Xeon/Threadripper - Compute/Multitask/VM/mixed use; Not for just gaming
GPUs:
Coin miners have driven price up and stock down, waiting to buy a GPU might be wiser
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and very light games
>GTX 1050(Ti) - Lower 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 NOW.
RAM:
>Check your Mobo QVL before buying any RAM
>Ryzen CPUs benefits a lot from high speed RAM
General:
ALWAYS LOOK AT PRODUCT REVIEWS!
Always 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.
The Ryzen lineup comes with surprisingly good stock coolers. consider using them over any <$30 cooler.
What Gsync monitors does /pcbg/ recommend for pairing with a 1070?
I'd prefer to stay away from the ones using the 27" high refresh rate IPS panels, due to their bleeding edge (no pun intended) nature causing bad QC. Unless that's no longer an issue?
are any used xeons good for gaming? Is a dual xeon build with one (maybe with some extra cores from the first cpu) passed through to a windows vm a good idea?
>>61930610
I just upgraded my lame Bloomfield (i7-920, C0 stepping) with a $20 Xeon (X5650) from China.
6 cores and 12 threads at 4.6GHz is not bad at all for modern games, even with ~30% less IPC than modern architectures.
What is better to learn, Java or C++?
>>61930559
C++
ansi c
C#

Yes it is today.

Just bought my first Nvidia GPU since the 560ti, had AMD ever since, and i loved the 7970, 290x and my current fury. Vega sadly isnt fast enough to justify the "upgrade".
I ordered the 1080ti strix. I have no idea how to overclock one. What are average overclocks and what software do people usually use?
>>61930100
MSI Afterburner same as AMD unless you used WattTool. The 10 series mostly OC like shit though but just set the power target as high as you can.
>>61930106
Does the GPU boost beyond the offset i apply to it?
Why do you need to overclock it? This isn't 2005.
Who else is a file hoarder here?
>300GB of console roms for emulators that I don't ever use

You need to have over 20TiB of data to post on this board.
