/sqt/ - Stupid Question General

can we expect manufacturers of non-reference envidia and EY Em dee cards to release versions with DVI-I ports ?

http://www.strawpoll.me/11971437

I ran the error checking tool (the one in the tools tab on the properties window) on one of my hard drives and it told me it found some errors that needed to be fixed. The log shows 92 lines like this one.

    Found corrupt basic file structure for "\Files\video.mp4 <0x7,0x628>"
        ... queued for offline repair.

one for each file.

After letting it fix the errors I found out that each file listed in the log is now a 0 byte file that can't be opened. The files are not important but while this 92 files are now 0 bytes in size, my hard drive's free space did not change.

Why did this happen? Can I do anything about it?

what are some good websites to learn coding ? preferably with an option to use EU Spanish (not latin american spanish if possible.

Can anyone recommend a good BASIC interpreter emulation for use on either Mac or PC? I want to go be stupid and comfy while I smoke week for a week. I want to play.

Ideally something that emulates either TRS-80 or Commodore 64.

Anyone got the install gentoo ftp username and pass? There isn't anyone on IRC who will help me out

The problem must lie with my friends POS mobo right? I don't understand how both 470s can be having problems while his much older GPU is working just dandy

I recently got an email from AT&T telling me to upgrade my service with them before early February or I might risk technical interruptions/issues/etc. They've offered to upgrade me to U-verse in the past but /g/ has always sworn against u-verse, so I never bothered. However, this new email makes no mention of U-verse and just mentions that if I don't upgrade then I may lose service. Does anyone know exactly what effects the changes AT&T are planning to implement will have?

I've suffered with shitty internet for literally 10 years now, with no other options, and now AT&T is offering an upgrade for the same price that I currently pay, so needless to say I'm a bit suspicious that I'm going to get jewed very hard for only slightly less shitty service. Would appreciate any insight on the matter.

I just got a new Android phone, and before I start doing stuff with it (shit posting, installing apps, rooting etc.) I want to make a nice, clean, backup of the phone so that if I ever have any problems, I can restore it. Will adb backup work for this, or is that not a complete backup? How should I do this?

Should my set up be doing as bad as it is?

I have pic related as my GPU (HD 7870), 8gb of RAM and an AMD 6300 processor. I built this PC about 4 years ago so I don't expect it to be a supercharged machine, but I'm having trouble doing the simplest of tasks. After Effects and Premiere are torture to work with, I keep getting low memory warnings and programs keep crashing and I just tried to play Doom on medium settings with everything turned down and it's still glitching out every two seconds.

Should I think about upgrading or does this sound like something that could be fixed?

If I were to switch to Windows 10 today (from W7), what would I lose in terms of gaming and compatibility? What's been broken?

>>58204350
Windows 10 is the worst Windows I've ever had going back to 98. It breaks more and more with each passing day. Never switch to it.

>>58204322

take the leap over to mac.

youre going to have a great time. i guarentee it

>>58204322
by 6300 do you mean FX-6300? should have saved for at least a FX-8320 dude.
have you tried the Vulkan mode ? there should be an option for it.
if u want to upgrade it would be better to wait for Zen because even if you want intel, it will be much cheaper after zen

DVI-I is dying quick, current AMD GPUs don't have the silicon for analogue outputs now so it costs extra for the GPU manufacturer to add in a DAC if they want it.

DVI-D will probably stick around a while for at least some non-reference models of each GPU.

>>58204201
FreeNAS is an OS, a Mac Pro is a computer, how can you compare them?

If you mean OS X as your OS, it's fine. FreeNAS has some nice data resilience features and a web based interface that's easy to work with remotely, but really, any OS is fine if it can host whatever services you want.

Hueg poorfag from down under here.

Recently splashed and got myself a STRIX RX 480, wouldn't fit in my mid tower but for some reason when I was looking in the basement for tin snips I found the guts of an old case that was just big enough for the 480. I think it was an old Gigabyte machine's case.
Anyway it's awful, there's nothing but the most basic metal structure (fuck knows where the rest is), the PSU is at the top and my 480 sits an inch off the base of the case, I'm currently flopping my drives out the back of it.

Can any airflow masters give tips for cooling a shell of a case? I have an old Proliant ML 350 G4P I stole from work full of deltas sitting in the basement so I have access to some decent fans.
Do I just duct tape some to the front and some to the back? Pull from front, push out back? Am willing to tape shit anywhere btw.

Also my 8320 appears to be bottlenecking games, I get nasty usage spikes on the 480, I've managed to overclock it to 4.3Ghz but it heats up SUPER FAST and frames are back to shit.
I need a temporary solution because the 480 emptied my spending account.
But I'm looking at throwing $250 dollarydoos at liquid cooling and a nice case in a month or so, any recommendations?

Is factory-recertified a big deal?

Getting a new internal HDD. Should I go 7200 RPM or is 5400 passable?

>>58204322
Should be way better than that. Reinstall your OS, make sure temperatures are all okay.

>>58204451
You can't really.

>>58204392
You're probably fine with just the airflow from the PSU fan.

>>58204003
Why is Tiger so comfy?

>>58204509
OR a Toshiba HDD (2tb @ 7200 RPM)
OR a Seagate one (Same thing)

My options are limited because I'm going to get them in-store.

>>58204400

Not sure where else to turn since /v/ was useless, here goes

Pirated FFX/X2HD for PC and up until today it was working perfectly. Now for some reason the launcher starts but the games themselves do not.
I've tried opening as admin from the folders themselves and reinstalling but nothing. Does anyone have any clue why this could be happening?

Does mixing same sized ram but at different frequencies matter if it's just going to be downclocked to 2133?

I've done something stupid and wish to rectify it.

I installed win10 on the weekend and fucked around a bit to try to get everything nice and tidy, having my os on an ssd and bulky files on an hdd. Today, I wanted to move the Desktop, Downloads, Documents, ect... to the HDD since all downloads were coming into the SSD C: drive, so I went into properties to move the desktop to the HDD D: and it deleted some shit, nothing important but I couldn't revert it. It was fine for the Downloads and Documents folder but I deleted some programs that I can't reinstall now.

My question is if I want to do a fresh start, do I use the setting options within windows to "refresh" my pc or boot from bios on the usb I used to install in the first place?

And also how to not be retarded when trying to get most of my shit into the HDD instead of the SSD, like documents/desktop/downloads?

/g/
My mom's laptop has bluetooth. I have bluetooth on this computer with a USB.

windows 7 sees it just fine but nothing wants to connect to it right. It sees my ear buds, phone and speaker but wont use anything.

Also her PC allows her to pair her phone to her PC as a bluetooth earbud, is there a driver for that?

Lately my computer has been randomly, (but not very frequently,) shutting itself off. Or at least seemingly. It's more like it's gone into rest mode but can't be woken up. The display stops, no mouse or key activity will bring it back up, and the computer remains on until I hard shut down.
This happens without warning, maybe once every few days or so, or even once a week. Not very frequent, but it's worrying.

Can anyone tell me the likely culprit? Or is it one of those things that could be any one of a ton of different issues?

And before anyone mentions viruses and the like, all my programs have scanned and found nothing.

>>58204782
>And also how to not be retarded when trying to get most of my shit into the HDD instead of the SSD, like documents/desktop/downloads?

I was in a similar situation and ended up just doing a symbiotic link

>>58204805
Check your temps, maybe something is overheating? What exactly are you doing when it does that? Gaming, browsing, cpu intensive work, nothing at all...?

>>58204805
So many things.
Try starting with a reinstall. Just run it with a different disk for the time it usually takes to shit the bed.
I've had a similar problem that wound up being the PSU. Could be your RAM though.

Anyone know a program that can tag folders just like a booru would? I'm trying to sort my collections and be able to find folders with a certain tag just by search

>>58204824
A little late for me I think. I had a few things that worried me since a lot of downloads from browsers automatically go to the C: drive, although I could adjust browser and torrent settings. I tried to move the desktop to the HDD and that is the only one that fucked up and had its contents deleted.

I went back to windows 7 from Windows 10 and have been seeing some odd behavior, the audio and video would stutter for a second then return back to normal (this happens mostly when watching videos and happens every 30 minutes or so), well I looked more into it and messed around with my WLAN card and found when pushing the antenna towards the motherboard, then the worse and more frequent (about every 5 seconds) the stutter would happen. I did the same with my phone and the exact same thing happened. Anybody have a explanation of what's going on here?

>>58204865
Currently writing a filesystem based around this. Not ready to go public yet so I'm not being helpful at all, but just saying there's something in the pipes. I'll make a thread in a month or so when it's usable.

I think it's my GPU, actually. It seems it's been running unusually hot lately and it would explain the manner of the crash.

I'll try cleaning it and making sure the fan is working. Are there any other things I should do to make sure my GPU is working properly?

>>58204875
Are you using a skylake cpu? Intel skylakes have a known compatibility issue with 7, as if you're being forced to consider 10 by making 7 unbearably horrid.

In recovery you can backup system and data. You could also use Titanium Backup for data. Android is different. You were being lambasted because the question is sort of silly and naive.

>>58204909
That sounds likely. I'm bad with hardware and always feel paranoid about breaking shit so I'm not very firm with connecting things to the motherboard sometimes.

Another thing worth adding though is it seems to run unusually hot while I'm in Chrome, for some reason. I'm currently cutting down my tabs to see if that helps but it seems weird that it's fine when idle but Chrome can make it run as hot as a Steam game does.

>>58204899
Nope, using a sandy. I may just be stupid and something else is happening :/

>>58204933
Thank you for the serious reply. I'm curious, why IS Android different? It uses drive partitions just like any other OS, why is it such an odd-ball thing to want to copy/backup/move the partitions?

Nothing happens when I try to get my windows forms program to select text in a textbox. I'm using C#. I've tried it two ways:

myTextBox.SelectionStart = 0;
myTextBox.SelectionLength = 2;

myTextBox.Select(0, 2);

It just stays the same, nothing happens. what the fuck?

>>58205018
You're not really supposed to touch the os. OEMs do everything to keep it locked down and it can be tightly coupled with the hardware. Apps don't suffer from this, so you deal with backing them up. That said, Android has various partitions you can manipulate and backup. I'm mostly talking about the user stuff. It might help to study Android's architecture a bit.

it's a corsair VS450, and I've had it for a year, my GPU is an nvidia gtx 550 ti (so the PSU should be enough)

my PSU is still the problem right? why did it fail so soon, I thought these were supposed to last longer

Most likely, any idea what's causing it?
DNS issue?

My wifi is super slow and won't play any online videos,regardless of quality. It downloads things fast... I already updated my video card drivers and I tried changing wifi channels (it worked before) but wifi analyzer can't find any good ones. What the fuck is happening?

If it was a DNS issue, you wouldn't be able to connect to anything anywhere. It sounds like your ISP is periodically routing all traffic on port 80 to their own website.

You won't know until you start replacing parts to check them. I have a faulty Corsair psu (after 6 months) that dies for days at a time. I thought they were a good brand when I bought it but I don't think I'll try them again.

Yeah, and if you point 4chan.org to 127.0.0.1 in your hosts file, it'll still show 4chan.org as well. Same thing, only this is on the ISP side and only redirecting HTTP traffic.
Your best bet for bypassing it is to get a VPN. Don't get a free one unless you want to sell all your data to China.

Are there any good laptop review sites?

I can't seem to find places where they review models that i'm interested in.

Opinion on HP Pavilion 17-ab004na?

I just need something fast for general stuffs and light gaymen.

So I installed 4chanX to get (You)s back, but I don't like all the other changes it makes to the site's appearance. And I can't just uncheck everything except the (You)s and then enable the native extension, because the native extension being active at all overrides the post quote with the dotted line instead of a (You).

So how do I go about making 4chanX look and behave exactly like the 4chan native extension?

HDMI cables come with resolution/bandwidth support.

>http://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=15428

Stuff like this has great bandwidth (18gbps) and resolution, so it will work with 4k60fps.

>http://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=3992
This for example supports 10gbps and can only do 4k24fps

Other than those two key differences, there shouldnt be much difference between spending $4 or $100000 premium XXX HDMI audiophile certified hdmi cables

Am I going to be given a shitty version of these cards? I bought the gayming version of the 270, bc it has a proper cooling solution and matches my autistic black-red scheme. Will I be able to get them to send me one of their gayming versions of those cards?

Anyone with experience on such bullshit?

>>58208668
Just be happy if its faster than your old card
Make a huge stink if its worse

Planning on upgrading some shit in my computer.

Does bronze/silver/gold/platinum really matter for the 80 plus rating if you're just buying a power supply for your average gaming pc?

I assume bronze is enough if I buy a high enough watt psu for my computer

Why is Desktar NAS the brand of choice for data hoarders?

>>58208668
I've never had to deal with that before but can't you ask them for the exact model they're going to send you?

Why would they think its ok for them to send you a fucking mystery box?

>>58208831
If the one being replaced is out of production it's not always that simple, so they can end up sending you something newer.

i upgraded my pc and now two of my case fans aren't working and I can't find where i'm meant to plug the cunts in on the mother board

there are some 4 pin slots but the fans only have three pins

>>58208875
I would still think they'd let you know what's coming in the mail.

Once again never had to RMA anything before so maybe I just don't understand the bullshit you have to go though

If I want some loud as fuck speakers, like club speakers a DJ would use, to play my music loud as fuck and annoy my neighbors, what stuff would I need to hook them up to a PC, and what actual speakers should I get? I'd like them to be loud, and have nice sound and bass (subwoofers, built in or seperate) I guess.

>>58208922
you can plug them in to the 4 pin slots cuzzy

>>58208922
That just means your fans don't have pwn control, you can still use the 4 pin fan headers

According to this which is better?
a CPU with U suffix or Y suffix?
Regarding laptops if this makes a difference.

I'm running a small win7 VM on my server to convert videos using handbrake.

I don't see much difference between assigning 2 cores or 4 which I find strange. I have a 4c/8t CPU.

Isn't video conversion supposed to scale really well? I have checked for other bottlenecks but can't seem to find anything.

>>58209028
Y is slower but uses less pwoer

>>58209052
This is using virtualbox on ubuntu server btw.

>>58209056
And U is faster than Y?

>>58209069
U is weaker than Y

most likely

Ultra > Extreme

>>58209069
He just said Y is slower, which makes U faster, yes.

>>58209091
No. Why answer if you don't know the answer and just guess?

Damn anon you're so smart.

what's a good Linux fan speed adjustment program?

>>58209563
fancontrol, part of lm_sensors
works way better than speedfan does in windows

>>58208810
Do you pay your own electricity bill? If so get gold, if not you're fine with silver or bronze. platinum is mostly a longer warranty and fully modular IIRC

>>58209702
looks like gold it is, thanks!

Apparently Solus has this special git ps1 prompt. I'm running Ubuntu, but I want the same. I've seen a bunch of other variations, but I like this one better than any other I've seen.

Possible on Ubuntu?

Don't listen to that anon, it's pretty expensive and you won't save much on power, not enough to make worth while at least.

Bronze is good enough.

I got a microcenter gift card and I've seen some pretty decent sales on them anyway. Does the rating also have to do with reliability and build quality too though? Because I really want it to last a long time.

PSU really isn't something I want to upgrade often

torrent

Do you know how to use torrent sites and torrent programs?

>>58210316
No not really but usually the ones that are 80% or higher are much better quality.

Bronze and 80% are good enough. EVGA has some really good yet cheap power supplies, they are great.
