    Hey guys, I'm trying to put together a media pc capable of 4k h.265 video decoding. I would prefer getting a processor with an IGPU that can handle the load. I was looking into the I3-7100, but read contradicting opinions on this processor for native 4k support. The PC will be hooked up to a TV and used to stream Netflix, Youtube and use KODI and my budget is around 400$, but it can be stretched if necessary. I plan on using this PC for a long time with little to no upgrading. I'd appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks guys!

    Hey Guys, I haven't posted anything in quite some time, but I was wondering if you could help me find a worthwhile game for the holiday season. I did not really follow the new games of 2015 & 2016, but mostly heard a lot of dissapointment. Were there any really good games this or last year that I must play? Games I enjoyed recently include: Rocket League, Cities Skylines, Insurgency, Sleeping Dogs & CSGO. Any and all recommendations are welcome!

    I would really want the blade stealth for school and the smaller form factor, but I wouldn't mind the regular blade either

    I think the Axon 7 offers a great value with no obvious drawbacks

    Hey Guys, My summer break just begun and I'm looking for new TV shows to watch. I recently watched Mad Dogs and The Man in the High Castle. I also really liked Breaking Bad, but also Sitcoms like The Big Bang Theory. Do you guys have any recommendations besides Game of Thrones?

    I really loved crysis 1, but crysis 2 is completely different...I actually quite like it

    Just start out with something that interests you a lot, like for me it was photography and PCs and phones. I got a camera and wanted to know how to take better pictures and one thing lead to another and weeks and months pass and then you know things, not because you forced yourself to know them, but because you were curious and it has a purpose to you in everyday life. I keep up to date on tech sites to see whats new and if there is something interesting I'll do a little more research. I would say that most of what I know and learnt, was because I had to know and understand it so solve a problem (ex: fixing pc, taking better pictures, deciding what phone to buy, etc.)

    maybe 500€ the gpu can bought used for 250€ on a trading website similar to craigslist in Austria and the pc components may be worth 250€. If you really want to sell maybe leave a little room to negotiate downwards.

    it should be fine, as long as the cable works you could test usb read and write speeds on a usb stick connected to the cable and the without the cable

    Hello guys, I'm taking pictures of the construction of our pool and I would like to make a timelapse of the pictures, but the issue is, that the pictures aren't taken at the same time of day or during the same weather, so they look fine on their own, but very different. My question is, is there any program that will adjust picture tone, brightness and color for an entire folder to match more or less? Or do I have to do every picture seperately? Cheers

    the soundcard that comes with the headset should be fine, but you can get better headphones(no mic) for the money and get a microphone separately if you are concerned with sound quality

    Since you have the hardware I don't quite understand how relevant your original question was. None of us can look into the future, but only make educated guesses and in the end you have to decide if you are happy with your card in 3 years and see if it makes sense to upgrade. My pc is turning 3 years old in a month and I'm still really happy with the performance of my gtx660, but I don't play new AAA titles, but I want to keep the PC as is for the next 18 months

    I used chrome for years, before it had strange issues and it got a lot slower even on fresh installs I use maxthon and really like it

    if you are trying to spend the least money then I think you will be fine with a gtx 970 as well. You get the visual settings right now and over the years what may be ultra now may be normal, but it will look the same since the card won't get worse

    I think you will be fine if you get the kit above. You have priorities
