china bans facebook and google* omg china is so oppressive US bans tiktok* yeah national security

The US is really one of the biggest hypocritical continent in the whole world. They considering to ban TikTok but Fakebook is fine? Snapcrap, Whatscapp and Instagram are fine? A law that forces to have a backdoor is fine and banning encryption is fine too? Geebus, you gotta love the dumb tards in the gov.

Thanks.

Great. One less expensive part.

Thanks. Very sorry for the late replies. I'll contact you privately soon for how to go about that.

-Could this see cloud computing becoming the 'defacto' choice? with home users needing nothing more than a thin client - if so what would that mean for the home computer markets CPU/ GPU development cycles?
-Products like Nvidia Shield becoming the first choice for gaming?
-the rise of Linux? 
-Software moving more to cloud licencing models for use and processing power?
-8k plus streaming services?
-the beginning of the  end to LTT 'Storinator' videos!!!??😲 
 
 

Thanks. Worked.

Thanks. Worked.

Depending on how it is done.. then using the SSL port would hide it about as well as you can hope.
 
That is assuming they are just using ssl to encapsulate the already encrypted VPN connection. If they so it properly they can make it looks like any other web traffic over ssl so that dpi won't detect the underlying vpn.  Now the initial connection request will still be seen unless you are using a encrypted dns service too.
 
So they would see the packet info calling out for vpn.nohands.killme or whatever. Then it would be gobbledygook. You remove that possibility with encrypted dns.

The screenshot.

Just realized SoftEther is a SSL VPN !

I I'm actually cool with how complicated it is, since I'm learning bit by bit.

That's not true at all. He could buy that PC, and it would run modern games. Maybe not well, and maybe not at high FPS, but if he's spending sub $300 on it, you're not expecting stellar performance.
 
Granted, it would be in his best interests - if able - to save more, and get a better overall system. That doesn't, however, mean that he couldn't use this system. He could.

200W? Cutting it really close. I wouldn't regardless of what the math says, because I just don't trust that little power with a performance build. Doesn't matter if it's built by Seasonic or FSP or Chengdu Chinese Firecracker Factory.

ok. Afterburner for gpu and hw monitor for cpu. am going to monitor right now

save up more money for a i5-4590 with a b85 board and an r9 380 @ 4gb or an r9 390

It also isn't convenient whatsoever to upgrade as it uses a terrible non-modular PSU, and an awful case. It is a joke to give a better build even than you listed if you completely ignore the part where he says he plans to upgrade in the near feature and wants it to be as painless as possible.
 
Like so:

Z97, h87, h97, z87 are all chipsets. There are many motherboards with a particular chipset. Z chipsets are for overclocking, which you won't be doing, so get an H series motherboard. Any of them will work for you. Get an Intel i5-4440 to go with that, and you'll be good to go.As others have suggested, use pcpartpicker to help you make a build.
Additionally, any DDR3 Ram will work for you, as long as its not DDR, DDR2, or DDR4.
