So, what's a better deal, the RX 480 or Fury?

I'm going to be using a few monitors, but does four extra GB of RAM really matter?

I'm building a PC, I have the processor and RAM mounted and I want to do a POST test. PSU's connected and everything. Only problem is, I'm not sure which pins to lay my screwdriver across. The manual (pic related) only shows one power button instead of two.

What do I do?

>>57350152
By the way, a fury is going for cheap on Newegg right now, check it out: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202186&cm_re=amd_fury-_-14-202-186-_-Product

Also, for whichever one is superior in price/performance, which one is the best one to get?

Or should I just get a 470 if I'm looking for price/performance?

How do you deal with dead pixels? There's not enough to get the panel replaced under the manufacturer's policy, and the repair shop wants $500 for parts + labor. I've tried the online tools and no dice, and I don't know about the ebay listings for the replacement panels.

How can you tell if the panels you find on ebay are legit or not? I never shop there since I'm always afraid of getting chinkshit. The sellers say that they ship from the USA, and they get good ratings. but there's no reviews on the individual listings themselves.

To answer, no it won't, but you might prefer to install your programs directly on linux or using playonlinux (use wine but with custom install script to makes the program works). It will be easier to install and remove your programs and won't modify the performances.

Depends on the circumstances, and how damning your particular testimony was, but I think right now he could be upset and angry in general due to his situation, and lashing out at you in part due to that.

If you're using the same subnet for hosts connecting through R2 as R1, that's the most likely cause of packet loss. Think about how routers determine the next hop compared to switches and you should find a number of reasons why that won't work very well. If you want to use R2 in routing mode, it needs its own subnet.

That might. Do you have access to another PC or HDD'd OS? It might pay to use some low-level formatting tool (in Windows, I use HDDLLF to format my HDDs and shit).

Not sure what you mean hear. I used the love usb to delete my ubuntu partition, reformat, and install windows 7. So I would assume that I did. From what I've read, grub has a tendancy to stick around when reverting from ubuntu to windows.

There is the problem. Yes, bootrec will solve your problem, it will cripple grub to boot only windows, but you didn't format the whole SSD, then. I would recommend you connect the SSD to some computer as slave and format it like you would a USB drive.

Bottom line: Yes, you can use command line and bootrec.exe will work

I understand your concern, but I feel there must be a grub partition that hides somewhere you didn't format. To get rid of it, do the bootrec.exe trick, it worked for me. Maybe the old grub is still there, but that's not so much of a problem for me (I already have another linux distro, so grub is inside here regardless). That's the problem, you may not have removed the grub partition.

The issue is probably a dropped frame because the subtitle line shows for less than a second.
And by increase the time it shows flawlessly.
But I want that subtitle line to show without dropping frames.

Hey
I'm having trouble installing Windows 7 on my new custom PC. (The Rufus/Daz Loader way)
It keeps saying drivers or cd is missing and I've tried all the different fixes it feels like.
- I have tried the "update install and boot.wim"
- I've tried all USB slots
- xCHI or whatever was already disabled in bios

Can you simply not install windows 7 from a USB 3.0?

I have an Asus Z170 Pro Gaming mobo and Define S chassi and a slow as fuck piece of shit Eeee PC with Ubuntu on it if I can use that to my help in any way.

Who ever helps me to a working Windows will get sum $$

>>57355153
>Can you simply not install windows 7 from a USB 3.0?
you can but you have to install usb3 drivers first IF your manufacturer has them
put the driver installers in a folder in usb you plug in and when it says driver is missing use locate it manually button or something like that

Can I use a 3TB HDD for my main drive (OS)

I'm learning about algorithms and recursion. I've written a method that computes binomial coefficients using recursion and I want implement memoization to make it more efficient.

I don't know which data structure to use for storing computed values. I was thinking a 2D array, but I'm then uncertain about what size I should initialize it to. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to implement this?

Here is the method:

    public int binom(int n, int k) {
        if ((k == 0) || (n == k)) {
            return 1;
        } else {
            return binom(n - 1, k - 1) + binom(n - 1, k);
        }
    }

The code is written in Java.

Just to try it out and see the difference.

thanks in advance.

This should help you.

Google Update can be iffy if you fuck around without knowing what you are doing with them.

I did that once and the updater ended up corrupting my install hard.
So much so that I couldn't install Chrome again.

3TB HDDs, last I checked, were horribly shitty drives.
I wouldn't even use it as a disposable file storage drive for things I never cared for.

3TB drives had notorious failure rates.
Seagate at least.
If it isn't theirs, you're probably fine.

I plan on going to college and work on my computer engineering degree. The school I'm considering has Intro To Programming as a Pre-req for the degree and the teacher seems to be a bit of a bitch and teaches in Java. Considering my degree requires it, I'm going to need to take this. Should this teacher be a red flag telling me to go elsewhere, or should I tough it out to go to the college I like?

So my state's shitty electrical utility has the annoying habit of tiny brownouts during inclement weather. The lights dim for a split second. It's not even enough to make my alarm clock start flashing 12:00, but it's enough to reboot my desktop. The power never actually goes out and stays out, it just hiccups.

Is there any kind of surge suppressor or power conditioner that can fix this, or must I buy a UPS? I'd prefer if I didn't have to buy a UPS, because I need approximately two seconds of runtime without mains power, so it's rather a waste having fifteen minutes worth of batteries.

>>57352898
Yeah, sysadmins a pretty neat job.

My friend works in a telecomms company and he actually automated a bunch of stuff to give himself loads of free time.
He thought it would be great since algorithms do most of his work for him, unless something shits the bed and he needs to actually deal with it hands-on.

He now gets so bored he deliberately fucks with clients just to give him something to do besides shitposting on here or mumble.

if you find a good small-mid sized company that will always have demand, you can probably live off that job for life.
Might not be the absolute best of the best paid jobs, but it will be stable as fuck.

What's the best e-mail client

>>57356756
Honestly, it'd just be better to have a small plug-UPS.

you're going to find bad teachers at any university you go to. Better universities should have fewer of them, but they will always be there. Especially in low-level intro courses. That's the shit work of teaching at a university.

Python is apparently getting common, but there's still a zillion and one schools that teach intro programming in Java. Java has its flaws but for the purposes of an intro-level programming class, it's fine. Once you've learned the basics you can then pick up whatever language might be more appropriate to the task you're doing, anyway.

The only red flag I see here is your thinking that these are red flags.

What version of Ubuntu?

>>57357261
Why?

-linuxatmyram.com

>>57357241
Well you can get her an SSD, if she doesn't have one, and clone her drive onto it.

But really most of the weight of Ubuntu or any desktop Linux is in the desktop environment. The people who run Linux on old Pentium 2s and crap get acceptable performance by either using something very light indeed like i3, or by not running a desktop environment at all. Saves an awful lot of memory and CPU cycles to not need X running. Neither of these options are suitable for normies. So if she's not willing to use something lighter than Unity, you're pretty much stuck. Show her Xfce or something and see what she thinks.

>>57357261
The only thing I can think of is virtual containers like Docker.

>>57357259
A device is designed to use a certain number of lanes, and to be able to handle communicating on those lanes at a certain speed. The lanes aren't fungible, you can't just mix-and-match them any which way to get a particular bandwidth number.

What PCI-E 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 have done is make the lanes able to be used at a higher speed. That doesn't change the number of lanes a particular device is able to use, or the speed at which it is able to send or receive data on them. So no, newer PCI-E revisions give you compatibility - your PCI-E 2.0 devices will work fine on your PCI-E 3.0 motherboard, but for them to give you any speed increase, you need to buy new devices.

>>57357533

>>57357616
Thanks, I heard before it is ok if you just bend them back. I was just double checking.

>>57357667
Some versions just accept that they won't be able to test the few dozen kilobytes taken up by memtest itself, but I think most are clever enough to move themselves around in memory to some place that isn't currently being tested.

You can pull tricks like that when you're writing assembly on bare metal without an OS in your way.

Yeah, that is the deal with C++, and has been for a long time. It's a huge, sprawling mess and nobody can really keep all of it in their head. Most projects using it limit themselves to whatever subset of its innumerable features are most helpful to their particular problem, and don't use the rest - or disallow them in their style guidelines.

If you're writing your own project, yes, I'd think carefully about why you would choose C++ over C.

>>57358629
That probably is what they're looking for. I'm assuming you're being given hex numbers in a string and have to output a string with the same number in binary. Other than cheating and using some standard-library facility to do this (eg, scanf to convert the hex to an int, and then printf to output that int, specifying a binary representation) yes, you can just take each hex digit and output four binary bits based on which of the digits it is. There's no shame in using a lookup table. It's simple, easy to write, easy to understand, and fast (since a small lookup table can fit in cache easily)

>>57359055

How do you tell if your USB cable is dead?

I have an external hard drive enclosure. It works fine with the short cord that came with it.

I bought a 9 foot usb cable, it worked once. Halfway through a file transfer it locked up. It drops connection and shit. I thought my enclosure died.

I went back and the original cable works fine. So does that mean my brand new cable is shit?
Its an Amazon Basics cable

How do you get a direct URL link to a video where you can't right click on a video? I wanna run this (http://123movies.to/film/band-of-brothers-season-1-8561/watching.html) through mpv.

not reccomended since the boards are paired with the disks independtly, it might work but I would imagine it cause an error eventually.

You take the Cable and tie it like this then you jump off of a chair with it about your neck if it snaps it's broken

let me try this i call bs, I have pretty thick one that doesn't work.

>>57359873
Thanks, this might come in handy in the next few months

>>57359828
If you have a multimeter just test continuity on the 4 or 5 pins while moving it. If you can clean the contacts on both ends with iso alcohol

>>57352639
Neither if you can, Hitachi if you can't.

Go for a Hitachi 7300k if you can.

Try just feeding the URL to youtube-dl. It can pick videos out of a lot of things. And then you have a nice local file that you can watch however you like

I know how it is with budgets and shit.
But dude, you need to save up a bit.

You can buy a Sandisk SSD for $44 shipped.
They arent the fastest, but they are sure as shit more fast and more reliable than the two you posted. And itll have a tangible increase in speed for any older laptop.

No it doesnt affect it, if you have like 60 tabs open on both they itll be slow because you are hogging ram. It doesn't hurt one bit

>>57360231
You waited 10 minutes, you arent entitled to a response, and with such a retarded question, you wont get any.

>hogging ram
Ram is used when you tell programs to do things, you cannot "hog" ram, ram is used when it is needed to be used

When you are watching a video online, are you using the same bandwith you'd be using if you downloaded the video instead?

>>57360418
you are using more since you load the site too

>>57360418
Id like to know too.
Like on youtube, is the transcoding done by youtube itself and it sends you a smaller file?

How do I disable my display manager on Debian?

>>57360319
Usually nothing. Some monitors and drivers will use a smaller TV color space when you use HDMI, though, so if blacks look washed out, check that.

>>57360418
>>57360510
if you watch the whole video the bandwidth usage is the same. If you don't, youtube uses less bandwidth since it (famously) now tries to buffer as little as possible at the very last moment.

>>57360320
wakey, wakey, wagie.

What if you watch the whole video

Anyone have tips on pulling out the 24 pin connector besides "pull harder"? It's an old prebuilt but I didn't notice any glue when I was pushing down the connector clip thing.

Ok I just installed ubuntu on a fresh drive but got this error when booting after restart - error failure reading sector from 'hd0' - with a memory location from the drive as well. I ran a bad block scan from ubuntu live cd and it came back with zero errors. I don't have another drive on me to test it. Any suggestions?

When you apply for a job does the HR department ever forward it to the department that the job posting belongs to? I keep getting denied for things that just ask for a degree and 1-2years experience in something.

>>57360418
if you watch the whole thing, yes, exactly the same amount of bandwidth

the only difference is what you do with the data after downloading.
"downloading" = downloading to a file
"streaming" = downloading to a buffer, played, then discarded

I'm replacing my AMD GPU to a 1070.

I've never had a Nvidia card.
What software does it use?

AMD you can get from the website and is called catalyst. I just read that MSI has separate software. So do I get the software from MSI or Nvidia. Or is this two different ones?

wiggle it along this axis while pulling
also ensure the clip is pressed fully

>>57361314
>also ensure the clip is pressed fully
Any easy way of checking that? Like, if the clip is all the way up against the harness it's pressed fully? Sorry, I just don't want to break anything and I'm scared because this is pretty much the last thing in it right now.

>>57361347
should be up against the top connector, but if possible, also check pic related (may be difficult to see, especially if the mobo is still in a case)

>>57361358
just pull it out

just be careful to pull it out straight, if one side comes out first, you'll bend the pins on the other side

>>57361395
Alright.
One other stupid question: Am I fucked if the MB touches the hard drive at all when I'm pulling it out? That happened by accident before and now I'm scared.

>>57361412
not really, nothing should be plugged into live power when doing that
outside of physical damage, just touching is harmless

you should be pull out a mobo slow enough that hitting things won't cause damage

It seems like I can get the acer gn246hl bbid for 100$, is it worth it?
From what Im reading it's shitty for a 144hz monitor but it's still better than my current 1080p 60hz monitor right?

>>57361439
Oh yeah, I'm doing it very slowly. PSU is switched off, everything should be okay in that case. Thanks! My fingers still hurt from wrestling with the 24 pin before, but I'm really hoping I'll be able to pop back in here, or a later thread, with a tale of success soon enough.
