So I got my hand on old (~2010) computer for free. I am thinking on investing a little money to renew it and gift it to family member.
I would like to ask if it is worth it and if it is possible to do what I have in mind.
PC specs:
CPU: i5-760
CPU cooler: looks like Arctic Freezer 7
GPU: HD 5770
MOBO: Gigabyte P55 UD3
RAM: 4x 2GB DDR3
PSU: Some generic 80+ certification non modular
Fans are noisy as hell and temperatures are a little steep. I am thinking to replace CPU cooler with Hyper Evo 212+
I am looking for GPU cooler replacement as well - is anything like this possible? Where should I look for it?
Also would it be worth it to add 2x 8GB RAM instead? CPU and MOBO supports it.
It came with Windows 7, should I upgrade it to 10? Would it be any benefit?
Also pic related, its the card, fan is extremely noisy and it can reach 80°C and throttles.

A lot of older PCs won't upgrade from 7 to 10, especially Dells. You can always roll back, but you'll save some time by checking the manufacturers's website first.
Replacing the memory sticks won't noticeably improve the performance.

Well i is not a pre built computer so I guess there is no OEM lock for OS. Would Win 10 improve performance in games for example? Because that is what this computer will probably used for most of time.
How about GPU cooler, am I able to replace it somehow? It is noisy and ineffective.

>Fans are noisy as hell and temperatures are a little steep. I am thinking to replace CPU cooler with Hyper Evo 212+
If the heatsink fan isn't noisy, just replace the thermal paste - if it is, you could get by with a lot cheaper cooler
If case fans are noisy, yeah, they should be replaced - make sure PSU fan isn't making most of the noise
>I am looking for GPU cooler replacement as well - is anything like this possible? Where should I look for it?
Sure it's possible but I wouldn't bother - if the fan is that noisy I would just get a cheap new or used card
>Also would it be worth it to add 2x 8GB RAM instead? CPU and MOBO supports it.
No
>It came with Windows 7, should I upgrade it to 10? Would it be any benefit?
No
>>136031
>no OEM lock for OS
Just because it's not prebuilt doesn't mean it's not OEM - all my self-built computers have OEM Win 7
To see if computer has OEM or retail Windows - check product ID in My Computer properties
If the ID has the letters OEM as part of the ID, it's OEM - if not, it's retail

I have a dozen assorted /a/-related images that I can't source. They all either turn up no results in a reverse search, or turn up far too many unhelpful results. So, I'm mainly hoping that someone can recognize them; all I need is series names.

Odd image request. Does anybody have a pic from Runescape where a guy is cooking a chicken and burns it and says "We've lost everything"? Pic unrelated.

Anyone recognize this musical piece? It's only 6 seconds long, but it sounds amazing and I would love to hear the entire song. Thank you. Not a Nirvana song but Vine is about Kurt Cobain, btw.

Yes, that's where the clip is from. I'm looking for the name of the song/piano playing.

Hey /wsr/, I need your help...
I'm writing about eBay's economic growth and I have to use/explain some theory behind the Solow-Swan Model - or any similar model.
The main focus are eBay's mobile investments over the years and how the new mobile technology have affected the company (productivity & growth)
Somebody with great business knowledge?
Anything will be of great help - thanks a ton!

I tend to like watching my anime on my t.v and occasionally run into problems where my t.v. or Blu-ray player can't view them.
With something that doesn't have subs usually that means a trip to format factory or as converter but sometimes I get message that there is an error in the file and they won't convert.
- they will still play on the comp but won't convert.
I also want to convert anime files with subs
What is the *easiest* way to convert these?

Probably Handbrake. The best choice is ffmpeg, but Handbrake's GUI makes it easier if you just want to burn in subs and make everything a uniform baseline MPEG.

How difficult is it to use? I seem to remember being a bit confused last time l tried it a few years bacl

I also have been getting the message "no video file" when trying to convert a few mkv's when they WILL play in vlc and player classic.

So to make a long story short, I need an image i found off of /b/ a while back. I saved it on a laptop, and the laptop stopped working, got a new one, and now I need the image again, for a story I want to write.
To describe the image (In greentext of course):
>The background is black, with white text at the top and bottom.
>The text at the top describes how you are in a dream and with other people around you.
>There are pillars representing gods to follow.
>Then below that paragraph of text, there are white squares that show a picture, the god, what abilities following that god gives you, and what you shouldn't do while following the god.
>There are 9-12 gods (rough estimate)
>It's been a while since I looked at it.
>Pic unrelated.
I cant find it anywhere. Google is unhelpful as fuck.

Stop being so fucking impatient and wait for non reference 1080s to hit the market, cheaper and much better than the Fanboy edition.
Also do you need the I7? For gaymen the 4690k is perfectly adequate.
>>
i7 is completely pointless for gaming, just get an unlocked i5 and save money.
The GTX 1080 is a piece of shit, it constantly overheats and has no async compute. Get an AMD card instead.
The Rx 480 (8GB) will be available soon in a couple of days, get that instead. Buy 2 (~$400) and crossfire them, you'll get more FPS than the 1080.

I'm an ex-nvidia fan btw. But after 4 years of constant BS from then I've decided to switch over to AMD. Currently own a gtx 960, gonna buy 2 of those rx 480 cards and crossfire them.
