I'm going to be building a beowulf cluster out of scrap computers and was wondering if there is any specific task that I should try to achieve for the learning experience?

Oh, and sorry for posting in the wrong sub-forum.

Thank all of you for taking the time to answer. Have an amazing day!

That is completely understandable, and logical.

Imagine youtube/twitch as a desktop application that has the creators of your selection on the app.

Would you use an AIO desktop app that has content from all of your favorite creators?

@nobiggieBIGI don't think you understand: If you're not willing to deal with data-mining, you can't use a computer, period.

@SetrixNo, it wouldn't. I would suggest plugging in whatever device you have your OS on, turn on another computer, then after it's on plug it into the other computer, and check the crashdump file.

@nobiggieBIGI wasn't actually suggesting you reset your PC, I was suggesting not worrying about it.

@DanishPrinceIf you can, try a different monitor. Try safe-mode. Try using the IGPU. Does it only occur with video content?

@nobiggieBIGThe only possible malicious thing they would be doing is data-mining, but if you are worried about that, go ahead and uninstall everything, including whatever OS you use, because you can't avoid it.

@KyoSohmaGenerally speaking, the 8gig sets have a better value over the 4gig sets.

@nobiggieBIGIn my opinion, you are probably safe to use it, considering if it actually was doing immense damage to computers, there would be a flood of people online ranting about it, making sure they go out of business.

@nobiggieBIGIf it truly is a malicious program, it wouldn't have the malware in the installer, it would download the malicious software when you initially launch the program. (Data-mining) Malware generally won't eat up performance, and is basically unnoticeable.

@Benedoge What medium did you buy it on? Also, I'm almost positive this belongs in the 'Troubleshooting' sub-forum.
