There is literally nothing wrong with 4:3
>>
>>61000224
>4:3
>bad
The current state of /g/ folks.
>>
>>61000391
is there any reason to use a 4:3 display other than it being what you're used to? technically widescreen aspect ratios are better for modern video so wouldn't that make them better if only marginally?
>>
>>61000657
Better vertical screen realestate. I'm switching from a single 1080p monitor to 3x 1600x1200 monitors.
>>
>>61000657
its a programming thing so you can see more shit

if you're just watching videos and playing videogames then yeah its entirely pointless
>>
>>61000702
>>61000682
Why not just use turn a monitor to portrait?

And even so, $500 for a 4:3 monitor still sounds ridiculous.
>>
>>61000224
my friend bought a 700 dollar gpu to play at 1080p

>2010
>He buys an i7 and pairs it with a GeForce GT520 it has 2 fucking GB dude LMAO
>>
>>61000682
lol what? Two 1920x1200 easily beats that and you will get a much higher quality panel. You're dumb if you don't just upgrade to a single UHD... it's only $500
>>
Wait are you saying that's not a good deal? I just bought a monitor for $550 but it came with free shipping. Also in 4:3 ratio. But it came with a free mouse. I'm going to bed a happy man tonight
>>
>>61001480
2-3 years ago, built my pc with a fx 6350 and a radeon 7770. Sometimes I want to go back in time, shoot myself, get the 6300 and a better gpu

>>61000286
he's right though.

Storytime!!

So I knew this total autismo. Let's just call him A.

A was so stupid that I'm sure it must be diagnosable.

>Anon, I bought an R7 270 but my computer doesnt work now
>come fix it
>come over, his computer is in pieces
>fix everything, the last part was pure gold however
>the 4 pin CPU power connector from the power supply was inserted WRONG
>tfw he is so stupid he managed to fuck up an idiot proof connector that only goes in one way
>not to mention the severe autism one must have to pay $140 for an R7 270
>tech isn't the only thing this person is stupid about if you know what I mean
>>
>>61000224
>Friend decides he wants to put together a computer like I did.
>Alright, I'll help you out to make sure you don't do anything wrong.
>Head over after he finally has everything.
>Motherboard is already in, full atx, screws in all 9 holes.
>Help him get everything else in and connected.
>Doesn't work.
>Work out that the ram is bad.
>Few days later, fresh ram, doesn't boot.
>Motherboard is borked, RMA
>Few days later, fresh MoBo, want to watch him put it in this time.
>Wait, why are there more than 9 standoffs.
>Friend put in all 12 standoffs, because holes for full atx and micro atx.
>One of the micro atx standoffs makes a metal connection with the back of the MoBo, around the ram area.
>He created a short that killed the first set of ram and mobo.

Literally the only thing he did that I didn't watch over. I think I probably had even talked about putting the standoffs in the full atx holes beforehand. And, well, he technically did put them in the right ones.
