I'd go for the xps series as theyre powerful enough for engineering and have type c thunderbolt but you would need an external gpu for gaming on them otherwise id go razer

for gaming id still go with an 860k or A10 some games will not run without 4 cores

16.04 seems stable but if you're doing something mission critical I'd stick with 14.04 or 15.10 the full release of 16.04 is 1 month away

Is it possible to play a game intended for the original Nintendo DS using emulation at a playable frame rate with audio on a snapdragon 810 equiped device?

I'd take cyanogenmod for Chinese phones but i wouldn't buy certain phones from china

I know xeons can do multi cpu but what about consumer chips, do they just not have that ability?

I was thinking 2 4790k's vs a 5960X or 2 i7u chips against a 4 core mobile cpu

could 2 quad core or dual core chips match up to a quad core or 8 core in terms of performance?

i think its a dead gpu then, you do hear a post beep right

do you hear anything from the hard drive?

I recommend you use the geforce experience to optimize the games

Nearly everything you can do on windows although with much more freedom I'd recommend it for coding, web development or just screwing around and pushing your pc to its limit

I'm not the only one with creaking and cracking on the lenovo y-50, other people have reported it also

Quality is an issue, ive had issues with the laptop cracking near the hinge and the screen being worse than my second gen ipod when it comes to viewing angles

I don't recommend the Y-50 as I have one its more trouble than its worth and it only has one hdd slot
