Wow, entitled much? What kind of classes are you taking where you need better specs than that? And why does the case, motherboard, PSU, or anything else matter while you're using it for school?
 
Here's a good life lesson for you: If somebody lets you use something FOR FREE don't complain about it EVER unless you want to look like an entitled brat to the adults in the room.
 
Seriously, take a minute and think about what you've been given and don't complain about something you didn't have to pay for.

Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows 7 does me just fine.
I know how to manually get rid of viruses and malware anyways, but it's actually a pretty decent program. Not as obtrusive as—*shudders*—Norton AV is.

What they mean is, Defender is good for a baked-in AV. If you have some common sense it'll get you by just fine. And it's not in your face every 3 seconds or hogging massive resources.

Check the properties of the shortcut and see where the destination is.

Ah, no.
 
1: The 480's been beating the 1060 consistently in Vulkan benchmarks. Not many games utilise Vulkan though, but that will change.
2: The 1060 is actually far more expensive than the 480 in many parts of the world (eg outside the US) so the 480 is the better buy due to the fact that it's not massively far behind the 1060 but it is quite substantially cheaper.
3: Polaris was never intended to compete with Pascal. The actual Pascal competitor, Vega, is coming later. AMD made it clear that Polaris was a mid-range offering.

If someone recommend razer, you know he knows shit ^^.

"Just a few bucks" $50+

It's just as fast as any app would be without all the coding bulls*** required for a standalone app.

You must think a lot of yourself if you think somebody is DDOS'ing you for half a week.
 

The main companies (AMD and Nvidia) make the raw, normal cards then let their buddy companies (EVGA, Asus, Sapphire etc.) tinker with it to sellthem as aftermarket cards, typically with better performance and/or slight tweaks in the clock speeds, fan types, display interfaces etc.
 
As for what one to get? Well it depends on what games you plan on playing, or if you plan on doing video editing or game streaming Once that's figured out, then set yourself a price point and then go for the price-for-performance card you can find. Whether you go with AMD or Nvidia is entirely upto you, don't let the Green Team or Red Team fanboys persuade you.

Well of course it's just as expensive.
How else will the game developers afford a new Ferrari every day.
You people are so insensitive to the plight of the game developer.

Yeah you can't do that to a 360.
Take my word for it as somebody who'se worked on them for as long as they've been out.
They're as upgradeable as a phone's SD slot.
