What is the appropriate budget I need in order to build a 1080p, gaming PC that can run AAA games in 60fps? I don't have enough money right now but I need to know so I can save

>>56561932
For a high end gaming pc you should probably be expecting to spend in the neighbourhood of $1k (assuming you're in the u.s.)
correct me if i'm wrong

I'd say it depends on your target platform. For Windows or Mac, there are much better ways to start making useable software, i.e. C#, Java, etc. If you are planning to develop CLI programs or libraries for UNIX-like systems, then definitely do. It'll be a lot easier to find APIs etc for C than most other languages there.
C is certainly an important language that is useful today, but it's not always the best tool for the job. For example, programming GUI applications in C is going to take a lot of superfluous overhead that could be eliminated by using a higher level language like python or C#.
tl;dr depends what you're programming

My debian's clock gets fucked up whenever I put my laptop to suspend mode.

How do I fix this? For some reason, the clock never checks the time online for some reason (Is there an option for this?)

Founders edition cards are the cheapest around here, so that means the sellers are jewing people out of at least $70(actually more since loleurope) per card.

I'm running Apache in a Debian VM, and I'd like set it up so that each directory in /var/www/html/ would act as the root directory for any PHP/HTML that's inside it.

As an example:
The PHP code

scandir('/');

inside /var/www/html/Project1/index.php should scan the directory /var/www/html/Project1, instead of the filesystem root.
And in HTML, the tag

<a href='/a.php'></a>

in the same file should link to /var/www/html/Project1/a.php, instead of the filesystem's /a.php.

Could someone help me out with this, I've been googling for days, and I'm truly lost here.

Alright someone explain to me WHAT THE FUCK is even going on

I was just minding my business in win7 working in mspaint when SUDDENLY out of the fucking blue and for no fucking reason the mouse stopped responding, immediately afterwards the screen turned black and then my monitor shut itself off. 5 to 10 seconds afterwards the PC shut itself down aswell.

When it had rebooted itself i was greeted to a startup check screen of my BIOS saying "CMOS checksum bad". Tried restarting again because the keyboard didn't work anymore but it said "CMOS checksum bad" once again.

At the third attempt i got into the BIOS setup finally, but all the options i had previously tweaked were gone and back to the default state, so i had to fix those again. Now i'm sitting here wondering when the next time i randomly get thrown out of session will be. This makes you paranoid as fuck, you constantly have to save everything you do.

Why the FUCK is this even happening? This isn't the first time this has happened either. Last month i counted at least one occurence of this while i was playing a game. At first i thought it was an auto shutdown to prevent overheating but just now it shut itself down when i was doing mundane desktop work. So there's NO fucking way this could've been done by the system due to overheating.

Does this have something to do with my frequently putting my PC into hibernation mode for faster bootup rather than shutting it down completely? Could this have drained the motherboard's battery completely?

I mean i do want to get a new machine anyways (this one is over 5 years old) but i'd like to keep using the current one for a little while still at this point

i'd test your PSU

the CMOS battery dying will cause it to blank upon power loss, so check that too, so that by itself shouldn't affect a running system

if you don't have a psu tester, disconnect all power connectors, bridge green+black together with a wire in the 20/24 pin connector to turn on the PSU, and use a multimeter to test each pin, voltages listed here;

- If it's SATA, connect it to a working pc but first check the BIOS config, check that the OS loads from the main disk and not this one (in case it still works)

Once the OS is running you must be able to see the disk like a installed device if everything is OK with the Data...

>>56569126
I know TOR does it, so you could probably write your own app that makes always on notifications. You probably have to select some security option, though. I can't completely remember.

>>56569131
Well yes, you do have to pay for bitcoins from your credit card or whatever you use. The transactions are anonymous, though. The whole point of bitcoin is to have anonymous transfers and unknown amounts of money in your account. Banks and such can't see how many bitcoins you have nor what transactions you've made with them, they can only see what you've transferred into actual cash.

>>56564499
Whatever cheapest really.

Prolky lookin at $300 for a laptoo.

>>56569131
Bitcoin isn't really anonymous. Every transaction on bitcoin is recorded forever for anyone to see. It's just an alternative to the banking system, so you don't necessarily have to provide multiple forms of identification and have an account permalinked to your identity. But countries are still free to try and regulate any currency, and anyone buying or selling anything can choose to collect information either to satisfy their governments or to help prevent fraud. There are bitcoin tumbling services that supposedly take your coins and give you someone else's in exchange, so you can't be traced, but it's hard to say how well those work. Often people who care a lot will buy coins in person.

Any games that would profit from a GPU with 8GB of memory instead of 4GB?
I don't feel like spending those 60€ extra if it's unnecessary.

>>56569265
Depends on the resolution.

>>56568161
https://www.r-project.org/

I posted in the last thread about my computer not starting after I cleared the CMOS. It turns out my GPU is the problem, booting the PC without the GPU plugged in makes it boot fine.

My question is how did clearing the CMOS mess with my GPU? Was it something I physically did when I was rooting around in the case? Or is it something else? For people who weren't in the last thread; my PC gets to splash screen then goes to a black screen with a flashing type prompt but I can't type anything.

I have a GTX 760.

>>56569292
Well, I do own a 4k display with free sync but there's no way I'll spend a fortune for a card which will allow me to run games at 60 fps on that resolution.
Highest I can go is 300€.

>>56569348
did you accidentally unplug the pci e power connections to the gpu?

>>56568895
The exact problem here is that it needs something to point to, and it can't find it. You need to put something there for the app/OS to use, since you can't exactly modify the app/OS itself without a good bit of headache. Try giving it a fake camera (image or something), like this guy: http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/124751/use-image-file-as-camera

>>56569265
Games with large amounts of changing variables. GTA5 would be an example. If you're looking to future-proof, then maybe it's worth it. Not many games really need it, though. You can still get great graphics without it. It's completely up to you, though.

>>56569348
CMOS holds bios settings, so you likely need to change some settings in the BIOS to get it working properly. It's also very well possible you screwed up something physically, too.

>>56569401
No, everything was exactly as I left it, all I did was short the CMOS. I've mad sure the connection thingy was as it was too.

I've made sure the card is seated properly too.

All clearing CMOS does is return your bios to factory default, the way it was when your pc was sent out. If you went in and changed something when you got your graphics card, like disabling onboard video, then you would want to change that setting again. But it sounds like either your card or your mobo is dying. You could try removing any drivers for the card before reinserting it

android developers might be able to help with this one but you essentially need to override "android.hardware.camera" to point to something valid. Best bet would be to just contact the Developer.

>>56569762
using String.substring() there is no subint so you'll need to convert the year to a string.

$yearStr = yearStr.substring(2, 3);

since it's a year and you likely wont be using math for it you should have 2018 as a String.

>>56569936
For Linux, all of the startup applications are in /etc/init.d/

>>56569921
The fans on my higher power GPU turn on. The older Radeon doesn't. It might be that the Radeon is busted, it's like 8 years old.

>There are bitcoin tumbling services that supposedly take your coins and give you someone else's in exchange.

That's an oversimplification. A real tumbler has creates tons of wallets and the contents of these wallets provide a pool. Transactions between these wallets are generated by an algorithm designed to obfuscate the difference between real transactions between the user and the pool to anyone looking at the transaction history.

It's like you had a thousand dollar bill that was traceable by serial number to you in some vague sense. So you bought a thousand $1 scratch off tickets with a 90% return rate and redeemed the winners at different convenience stores.

>it's hard to say how well those work
Pretty well considering the Silk Road used a tumbler and when they investigated him they had to rely on the fact that he failed pretty hard at opsec. All bitcoin transactions are publicly available. If there were an algorithm for defeating it known to law enforcement there would be a lot more pizza distributors in the news.

Bitcoin would be valued at Dogecoin levels in an hour if that ever happened.

That unfortunately is due to the developer putting in a "Kill on Exception". Most applications will terminate if there is something wrong with hardware it needs. once again the only thing you can do here is contact the developer.

Going to replace my GPU after I replace my CPU, mobo, and RAM. Was thinking about going with the inevitable 1170. How long does Nvidia's 70 series usually last? Not wanting to get budget this time around. I went pure budget on this build (FX-4200, Gigabyte GA-LMT78-USB3, R9 280 3GB), and I'm already needing to replace shit. On the flipside, SC is poor as fuck, so a xx80 or xx80Ti is more than I want to spend.

Basically, what I'm wanting to do is

>AMD FX-whatever-the-best-performance-without-breaking-the-bank-chip-is

Im not? It's for a laptop. By motherboard I meant either a normal desktop motherboard or the adapter/motherboard im planning on buying which has as an option a power supply that connects only to the adapter itself if the card doesnt need much power. Im just confused and would like to know. As I said I think some cards can be powered from the pcie slot, no?

For example, this setup plugs into the adapter like a normal motherboard would without needing the small 2.5 jack, obviously desktop setups dont need this but I want to know when and why for example the psu connects to the motherboard and the card.

>>56570548
MD5 changes and the checksum fails.

>>56570563
>>56570338
Also the adapter pictured has 4 power inputs in total, I understand an adapter is non standard and thus I shouldnt be asking here but surely there's a reason for that, save for the small 2.5 jack the rest applies to desktop motherboards too, no?

Installed my GPU to the motherboard, everything lines up right but even a little bit of force (like plugging in an HDMI cable) pops it out of the expansion slot.
Is there a way to "lock it in" that I'm missing?

>>56570563
Ok, so let me try and get this straight. You will have a laptop, and no desktop. You want to have a full sized gpu sitting outside of your laptop, powered by a motherboard you bought solely to power it. And you want to connect it to the laptop somehow. I don't understand how you intend to connect the data to the laptop. What is the official name of the 2.5 connection you're referring to, is it for data or power? And where did you hear of this whole idea?

>You want to have a full sized gpu sitting outside of your laptop, powered by a motherboard you bought solely to power it.
Yes, except it's not a full, normal motherboard with all the normal ports. It's just an adapter with a pcie slot.

>And you want to connect it to the laptop somehow. I don't understand how you intend to connect the data to the laptop.
The specific model of adapter im looking at can connect through either mpcie or expresscard with the laptop, using the pcie lane of the expresscard. The expresscard connects to the laptop, and the expresscard connects with an hdmi cable for data purposes to the external board. Yes I know speeds will suffer and it'll be a bottleneck but it's not as bad according to others experiences, it would basically run at x1 2.0 speed at most. Still good for me.

>What is the official name of the 2.5 connection you're referring to, is it for data or power?
There is no official name from what I know, it's a standard power jack like the one some laptops use I think, pic related they suggest this I think, it's for power only. Although im not sure if it still needs an atx psu. The card pictured for example isnt using the 24 pin atx plug but it has something going from the adapter board to the card.

>And where did you hear of this whole idea?
eGPUs have been popular for a while, when Thunderbolt 3 becomes common it will be even better despite the bottleneck.

Try a different DNS/Router/ISP, in that order.

>>56570930
your isp might have some dns problems, try using a different one like the level3 or something and see if it helps

What's a good ISP and plan that has unlimited data per month?

The other monitor only has VGA output, is there any point in getting an adapter when I can just use the VGA port on my GPU? Its not a bad monitor at all, claims to be 1080 and LED but no fuckin hdmi out so not sure what to do. Thanks for the help

>>56570870
Ok. Thanks senpai.

Fug, I just realized the picture I used doesnt have the 2.5 adapter but still it's one option for powering it I think. Says its an 8 pin connector. I have no idea what the port the leftmost side is.

>>56570931
how are you connecting it? hdmi i'm assuming?

if so you need to go in the sound settings and make the hdmi audio the default audio output instead of the sound card you're currently using in your computer

if you don't see an hdmi sound option then something else is wrong

>>56571022
as far as i know there's no point in going hdmi->vga, so just use a vga

>>56571032

Some more info

I've already figured out the data aspect, just wondering how and what would I need to power it. I could buy a normal atx psu and hope it works but im actually thinking of nigger rigging an xbox 360 psu because I dont have money (otherwise id build a desktop straight away) which I know its possible. Those psus have up to 200w at 12v and are cheap as fuck.

i'm not sure how it works on radeons because i haven't used them in a while, but for nvidia cards there's some hdmi audio settings in the nvidia control panel. look in catalyst (is that still it? idk) options and see if there's any hdmi related audio stuff in it

>C is certainly an important language that is useful today, but it's not always the best tool for the job. For example, programming GUI applications in C is going to take a lot of superfluous overhead

What is Qt?

When I tried to install Elementray OS a few months ago I remember getting into trouble while installing the nvidia driver, resulting in a permanent blackscreen.

I know there's some kind of specific procedure to get it done properly but I can't remember it, could anyone help ?

my halo 5 download stopped around 50%, tried pause/start, rebooting pc, finally deleted it and restarted and now it's stuck in the beginning.

what's going on?

Any skylake igpu should be able to drive a 4k display at 60hz over displayport.

>>56571352
Thanks. Now I just have to find one that uses that instead of thunderbolt, since I don't want to involve any active converters to my existing monitor.

Guys i think my mobo is getting way too hot under stress

Am i right in thinking that top value is the north bridge sensor? Or is it the PSU temperature?

Wat do? Are there any dedicated motherboard coolers or shit like that

No bully pls, this is the stupid question thread after all

You have a gift for saying things in ways that make as little sense as possible. You can get an all in one solution that powers your device too

>eGPUs have been popular for a while, when Thunderbolt 3 becomes common it will be even better despite the bottleneck.

eGPUs have been terrible. Thunderbolt 3 is really the first time they're going to be passable for the average user. I think you're going to be pretty disappointed with the performance you get from expresscard. Look for reviews made within the last 2 years, and also see which cards they used.


>the expresscard connects with an hdmi cable for data purposes to the external board

This is wrong.

You might want to point some fans from the core to whatever temp2 points to.

Haha epik +1 karma :)

No but seriously i strongly suspect the motherboard idling this hot has something to do with the crashes/blackscreens i've been experiencing as of recently

>>56571611

>>56571629
Can you describe the crashes better? Also, what's the highest temp you've seen on there?

Will I be fine with my CPU fan cable like this? I can't really have it any other way without it touching any heatsinks or having sharp bends.

>>56561783
i installed debian8 on an old laptop (toshiba satellite). there were issues with the ethernet and wifi card drivers (non free) during the install and i didn't have access to drivers while installing.

i have installed the correct drivers now so i get no warnings during start up.

HOWEVER, if i reboot the system when it comes back up it doesn't load the ethernet card. i log in reboot again and it works. right now im using it a development box because my last one died on me. so this doesn't work because its meant to work without me physically being here to reboot it a second time. i thought about using just wifi but it sits in the basement next to the switch/router meant to always be on.

how would i go about trying to load the ethernet card maybe later in the startup? or once at the login screen?

i'm at my wits end and exhausted google searches all of which did nothing to help. thought about reloading OS with 'non free debian installer' but think it might just put me in the same position.

how do i make sure it loads the ethernet card every reboot

I live in a "rural" area that has copper wiring so my internet option is limited to VDSL as far as wired connections go. Not even a quarter of a mile away starts the urban area where people can get decent cable internet.

Is it possible to somehow pay to get this wiring updated so I can have non-shit internet?

>>56571771
even if that was possible they will charge you an absurdly high price to have it installed

>>56571786
High price is a given but I just wanted to know if it was possible.

>>56571721
yes

>>56571796
maybe, you'd have to call the isp and talk to someone

>>56571721
You're fine. You only need to look out for times when cables are completely flat against themselves.

kek, need that monstercat visualizer

Ok what the fuck, i'm doing a stresstest ingame right now and Speedfan is showing 73 for the top value now, which is even hotter than the CPU right now

I have a slight feeling this is the shit causing all those overheating issues recently

Why is amazon offering me a "2-year drops and spills protection" for a bulk pack of microfiber cloths? They're individually wrapped in plastic so even the "spills" part doesn't even apply, assuming I spilled something on the package or something.

I just tried overclocking my 1070 via the afterburner tool.

It changed my fps from 597 to 62 in a random test in Kombustor. Cant overclock it more as it crashes with more juice.

Is this really all there is to overclocking? Is it such a big meme?

can someone post a list / graphic of necessary firefox plugins ?

Can the i5-6600K handle DDR4-3200 ?

Is there anything within the ffmpeg command line options that tell you which encoder to use with which format without having to look up documentation online?

for instance if I just do

$: ffmpeg -format | grep -i webm

it says nothing about libvpx
