/g/ I need help here's my current setup
>Asrock z77 extreme 4-m
>i3 3220
>gtx 760
>8gb of 1866mhz ram
>h 212 evo CPU fan

I'm planning on upgrading my CPU and GPU
Should i get an i5 3570k (not 100% sure if my mobo can over clock)
Or should I get a new mobo with an i5 6600k and get 8gb of ddr4 ram or would that be a lot of extra cost for not much performance increase?

I haven't decided on the GPU yet but I want to game at either 1080p 120hz or 1440p at 60hz

What does /g/ recommend in the way of a portable speaker?

Is like it to be relatively cheap, have a rechargeable battery with both aux and bluetooth, and to be waterproof to an extent, I like going out to the pool and splashing and shit but don't necessarily have to scuba dive with the damn thing

I've read some lists online but they're mostly shilly as fuck and tell me to buy an amazon echo or some shit, thanks in advance

/g/
If I will use cooler 120mm with 12V/0.2A in place where is required 1200mm 12V/0.3A.

Is anything bad going to happen? What is the difference for a cooler between 0.2A and 0.3A

?

I wanted to fall for the Sansa Meme, but apparently this is trash. What's a good, lightweight, SD-compatible player?

Previous search results show:

ffmpeg -loop 1 -f image2 -i image%d.png -c:v libx264 -t 1 [output].webm

Where image%d is a list of images starting with "image1". FFMpeg doesn't recognize image%d: "No such file or directory", but just putting in image1 gives "conversion failed".

Most bad things people on this board tell about Linux, especially vanilla Ubuntu, are complete nonsense. It's comfy. For most users Unity 7 will look slick, especially using themes like Royal (Unity 8 will look even better), it pretty much works out of the box (some pitfalls exist, but can be overcome), most important software is there (especially if you realize that you don't need your pirated copy of the Adobe CS to edit your /gif/ OC or dank memes) and there's even some great AAA games that support Linux now. And it's just getting better all the time.

Linux based operating systems are great and no one should be held back from trying and running one of the major distributions (by the 4chan hivemind that repeatedly yells and screams about how this distro sucks and how this and that can't be done under Linux). That's something I just realized again.

Try Linux, try lots of distros, don't listen to the autists on this board, it's actually far better than most people say - also, visit the /fglt/ if you need any help with getting started. Even if you don't like it in the end, you didn't lose anything. I'm in love with my new Ubuntu install, maybe you'd be too. Thanks.
