For the most part none of those. Unless the game you are playing is dx12 and you have GPUs compatible with dx12 only one GPU will actually do any graphical processing, though it is possible to have the Nvidia GPU dedicated to physx.

So I was thinking about getting a roku stick and was wondering if there is any kind of exploits or "hacks" to watch any shows/movies like showbox. Also is there a way to watch live TV as well? I sometimes see posts talking about kodi but don't have time to research much. Just need the best solution for streaming shows/movies and maybe live TV(with or without a cable subscription)
>>
>>55645040
Yes. Manipulate this to your query:
width:<=1920 height:<=1080

Throw it in the search box. It should work.
>>
>>55645087
I believe 3 pin fans are set up to work with 4 pin connectors. 3 fans have +12, GND, and PWM out. 4 pin fans have an addition speed control in. So a 3 pin fan on a 4 pin connector will run at full speed no matter what the mobo tries to set it to.

>>
>>55645118

Ah. Thanks.
>>
>>55645087
Just plug them in. I would also suggest to download a utility from your motherboards website to control the fan speeds. Asus uses ai suite and I know msi uses command center. Each manufacturer has their own utility. From there you can control the speed of the fans. It will be voltage controlled though so your fans will have like 3 possible operations. Low-5v, med 7v, max 12v.

Hope that wasn't too confusing.

I recently got a Samsung 950 pro m2 drive, and installed it into the pcie x4 port on the bottom of my gigabyte z170n wifi mobo. I dual boot Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 off it, and i have two issues with it:
-It takes a long time to boot, almost a minute. about half of this is either the bios POST screen, i think it's called, where the gigabyte logo shows up, the other half comes up after the ubuntu boot manager, where the screen is the same colour as the ubuntu boot manager screen (kinda purple), and nothing happens. This seems pretty long, and im wondering if theres anything i need to do in ubuntu to make it load quicker.
-When i open speccy, it can detect the type of drive, but where it would read (SATA), or (SSD), it reads unknown and doesn't show any temperature reading. I know these drives can get hot, and since it has little access to cooling under the mobo, I want to monitor the temp to make sure it's ok.
I downloaded the Samsung Magician app, but I never installed any sort of driver, and I'm not sure how up to date my BIOS firmware is, could this be related to the issues I'm having?

I need help diagnosing a computer problem, webm related. I'll share as much info as I can.

http://webmshare.com/play/3vP13

A while ago (over a year), my computer just completely stopped working, and I didn't bother fixing it because no money. I have money to fix it now, I just need to find out what's wrong and I'd rather not pay outrageous computer repair shop prices.

The computer stopped working one day after I put in sleep mode after watching some youtube videos, and it won't turn on at all. No input even goes to the monitor (which does work, I tested it with my laptop), when the VGA is connected to the CPU or GPU. It just doesn't boot at all, which made me think at first it was a hard drive problem. It's not, I've since tried several.

I think it's the motherboard, a GA-M68MT-S2P. It's not my GPU (it's not in the webm, I'd taken it out), or the RAM. It could be the PSU, but I don't think the sound is coming from there. What is that sound? I've tried looking in my motherboard manual but I can't find anything similar to that. I'm not really sure what if it's even possible to fix, I'm a bit of a beginner with this kind of stuff. This is my first computer, and I had help putting it together over five years ago.

Thanks in advance.

Replacing a motherboard isn't that bad. Will take you less than 20 minutes. Take out the GPU, take out the power cables, take off the cooler, take out the RAM, take out the CPU, unplug everything else (take a photo of the cables that lead to the case before unplugging- the front header cables, usb cables etc)
Unscrew the mobo, take it out, put new one in.
Read the manual to see how you should plug it in, then start putting shit back together.

You need to reinstall windows because windows will often have a hissy fit and think you've moved the hard drive to a different computer.

Which metric determines how "vivid" a display looks?

My old laptop had a typical lousy TN. Things always looked washed out and nothing was sharp. After getting a good IPS monitor, everything just looked so punchy. The colors were more vibrant, the blacks were deeper, and everything looked far sharper.

At first I think it was a product of the contrast ratio causing that effect on the old laptop display, however now I know that contrast ratio is just the distance between max luminance and black depth which doesn't exactly seem like the culprit. So why did the old laptop looked so washed out exactly?

No 750 Evo, it's a 2016 model believe it or not. The 850 is better but also quite a bit more expensive.
Cheapest 240/256GB SSDs are ~60 euros the 750 Evo is 80 euros.

I took my phone to an independent shop to get the screen fixed. A few week's later the screen cracked again, while it was in my pocket and I wasn't touching it. I went back to the shop and asked them to fix it for free (as they give a 30-day warranty with all their repairs), but they said that a cracked screen doesn't come under the terms of the warranty. Am I being jewed here?

Also, if they refuse to fix it, am I being a petty little bitch if I leave a negative review on their Facebook page? I feel like it's the only power that I, the customer, has.

bind to those ports and check for the system error code, theres one specific for port in use.

So i'm totally clueless at linux shell scripting but i need to have a script which "switches" up two files from different directories with each other while also making it so that you can run said script from any other directory with the same result in the end. It must a maximum limit of four commands executed within the script, those being two cp commands, one rm command and one mv command.

The graph in pic related basically shows what it's supposed to do; Changing up the content of the file itself without altering the filename as such after having renamed it.

Then i also need to have a second mini script which upon being run prints out the recently-switched up text contents of said files in this format:

>Content of txtfile1:
>test2
>Content of txtfile2:
>test1

... And which accomplishes this by only using two echo commands at the start and end of the script each, with six commands in total.

I suppose for a seasoned user this is pretty mundane shit to do in the shell but i really don't know what to put into the script file so i'm coming here

Im going to get a gtx 1070 and have narrowed it down to choices, though I don't know much about graphics cards so I'd appreciate your input.

Palit GTX 1070 GameRock Premier Edition vs the Inno3D GTX 1070 iChill Air Boss X3

Palit Pros:
>Core Clock: 1670MHz vs Inno3D 1620MHz
>Boost Clock: 1873MHz vs Inno3D 1820MHz
>Memory: 8500MHz vs Inno3D 8200MHz

Palit Cons:
>Only available for preorder whereas I can get the Inno3D today.
>It only has a 2 year warranty while the Inno3D has a 3 year warranty
>The Palit looks ugly as fuck, I don't really care too much about how it looks though

Do the differences in core, boost and memory make much a difference at all? or is it better to have the 3 year warranty?

What does it mean to separate them? Different technologies? Open source, productive and efficient versus proprietary consumer devices? Isn't this already happening?

What keeps people from developing open standards? Basic protocols like TCP and HTTP are used all the time. However, even those have unused features and there are many protocols meant for specific tasks that are brute-forced with browsers. Why companies like to reinvent the wheel?

You can overclock your gpu manually to get the same clocks, only if you're incredibly unlucky with the chip you get would it be a problem, since there is barely any difference.

What is more important is the phases and overall quality of the card, I haven't looked at either of these PCBs so I don't know which is better, but I heard good stories about Palit.

Warranty is also a good point, also if you want to resell it at some point. A gpu that still has 1 year warranty left resells a lot better than one with none.

Hey /g/
Recently got a SSD, its fast, no complaints
However i noticed that one folder, my downloads folder, it takes a really long time to load the files in the folder
other folders load instantly
however my downloads folder (which has alot of small files, i need to clean it eventually)
but i dont understand why the loading time for the folder is so slow?
i dont mean like 5 seconds
I mean it can take up to a full minute or more to load the folder

please advise

as a side note, i've also noticed that my boot time on the SSD was amazing before, but now its super slow
it became slow after i installed extra storage drives
so i feel like somehow, during the boot process, windows is accessing these slower drives for some reason
so im getting the boot time of the slowest hard drive rather than my solid state drive which has my entire windows installation

Is there any way to find out what files are accessed during windows boot up
so that i can move or delete or fix any files that seem to be on other hard drives & are loading at boot time

the slow boot is at the part that shows just a black screen & windows logo, to be more clear.

anyway
tl;dr
folder on SSD is loading super slow
boot time is super slow now since i added extra storage hard drives

any advice is greatly appreciated
if you provide a bitcoin address, i will also send some bitcoins, not much, i can send maybe 50 dollars max, but i realize your time is worth something so im willing to pay to fix these two annoying issues

What actually transfers in different data cables? Is it just elecrical pulses conveying 1 and 0, and if so, would a single bit be either of those?

Or am I completely in the wrong here?

I'm thinking of upgrading, and I'm thinking of getting an i5 6600k. Which, unlike the old Nehalem I have now, has integrated graphics. I have a dedicated card already (Nvidia), and two monitors attached to it. Can I leave the integrated graphics on and hook up a third? Or will the OS be displeased with having more than one display driver active at once? (I know Nvidia and AMD won't play nice in the same machine..)

So I am going to install windows 10 to a virtual machine.

Im not sure how licensing works with a virtual machine.
I know that you can use DazLoader on windows 7 and upgraade to 10, and itll be a legit activation.

Is that going to still work under VM?
Does a VM build a correct UUID for it?

Itll be whatever VM you use with Linux

Yeah it will work with any PCIe card, you'll have to rely on integrated graphics of course since an ITX board will only have the one.

Pssst, faggits, can you help a new guy out?

I'm tasked with creating an enumeration to represent the months of the year and to assign relevant values (January = 1 since it's the first month).

Then I need to ask the user for input value that corresponds to my months enumeration and print the month to the console window. It's suggested that I should use an explicit cast.

I've created something that does what I've been asked to do, but I'm pretty sure it's too bloated and not exactly what I've been asked to do.

Thanks lads, appreciate it greatly. If I was gay, I'd give you a blow job to show my gratitude. Luckily I'm straight!

actually you would need to check if userinput is in the range of the length of the month array, and probably stick a +1 in there to get the offset rugby

Im extracting thousands of small files from a usb3 hard drive through an express card adapter to my local hard drive. Its a 7z file using 7zip.

I know windows 7 has no native usb3 support and ive read of small, non reported corrupted files from transfers over third party adapters and their drivers.

Is there any way to verify every single file was extracted with no errors?

>>55652559
why bother making months a dictionary though? you can just use the user input to grab the correct value from a list.

Then you should put that in your prompt, ya dingus.

How much ram does a computer need is 4gb enough?
>>
>>55652883
8GB would give you room to work with, although you can get by with 4 if you're a light user.
>>
>>55652855
boyo you have no idea
I am connected second day to a notebook, 100% legal system, that is trying to get updates

ever since win10 push started by microsoft they either intentionally criple the win7 update process or they slashed drasticly win7 update servers

considering the constant ~50% cpu usage, I am thinking they are doing it, rather than lack of servers..

if you google you will find complains on win7 updates all over the web

8 / 10 dont have this issue
>>
>>55652883
2GB is enough for light use
4GB is enough that you wont really see some difference if you go from 4 to 8 unless you do heavy multitasking and dont have ssd
>>
>>55652883
At least 4. 8 is preferred. Anything past 8 is overkill for most people.
>>
>>55652950
>2GB is enough for light use
No, not really.

Applications are getting more and more bloated, and this would limit you pretty severely.

Unless by 'light use' you literally only mean a browser and maybe one media player open at any given time.

>get hired to do IT

>IT'S ONE WINDOW USING ALMOST 2GB OF RAM
>whoops, time to buy a new computer

I know this case is completely facetious, but 2GB is barely enough for light use now, and it sure as hell won't be in the near future.

Programming practices are getting lazier by the day.

Depending on the browser, office suite, and media player, all of those open could use up the full 2GB and start parking RAM to the hard disk.

Remember, a light user is typically a normie, and they're going to use Chrome, iTunes, and Microsoft Office.
>>
>>55653111
I said its minimum, it means it will work and wont be end of the world but you will feel the improvement when you get anothe 2GB

recommending 8GB because you consider 4GB to be minimum is IMO factually wrong

and FYI windows 8 and 10 have better ram managment than win7, so not all software goes the chrome way
even chrome is fine, people freakout because it uses ram when its there... oh what a naughty boy he should leave that ram empty, for santa
>>
>>55653165
Just use a rpi, 256 should be enough to browse the web and edit documents.
>>
>>55653165
Nigga, FF or Chrome alone will use almost a full 2 GB of RAM at times. 2GB will let you boot, but you really won't be doing shit with it. If you want to watch videos or listen to music at the same time, forget about it.
