thegoogler reacted to Ildiesalot in High core count Low TDP cpu
If OP want's to go with Xeon 55xx/56xx line, he/she should opt to pick up a used enterprise server off eBay. Yes, the motherboards can be extremely expensive when purchasing a single part, but used servers (R610, R710, R410, DL 380 G6/7, DL 320 G6/7, etc) can often be found for <$100 + shipping for the complete system. Although this usually doesn't include hard drives.
OP, check out labgopher.com.

thegoogler got a reaction from soldier_ph in Experiences with non-techies
when I built my own computer and my dad was watching me he was amazed that you could even build a computer, when I was choosing the parts he just said "what does this do?" and I would start explaining and he would tell me to stop because he doesn't want to know.

thegoogler reacted to cluelessgenius in A talk about piracy (not about where to go for links)
when i was younger i used to pirate as many games as possible because i wanted to play everything and didnt have money for anything but with time my gaming hours decreased and my income increased so now buying stuff is just way less hassle especially if youre playing online. sometimes i miss the good old days of downloading halo 1 for a week and then copying it too everyone at the lan party on the weekend. but now i mostly got time for a couple of hours every other weekend or so via discord and online.
pirating digital content is ethically tricky my thought always was when i leave my wallet lying on the street i cant get mad if someone takes it. i mean if i were to sell the copy thats something different completely but as long as i use it for myself i dont know. is it cheating if the teacher leaves the answers to the test right there on the board.
or even further am i wrong if the teacher is too stupid too realise the class wrote the answers behind her on the board? its tricky

thegoogler reacted to Scruffy90 in A talk about piracy (not about where to go for links)
From personal experience, if it weren't for me pirating software in the past, I would've never been able to learn some of the software I now use for work (and pay for personal use). Was I wrong in doing it, probably, but I wouldn't have been able to learn it any other way. As far as gaming is concerned, I used to pirate when demos started disappearing. I had a crappy machine at the time and I needed to make sure that I could run the game before buying it. Some of the games, I wouldn't buy, the bulk I would or simply wouldn't play the game. I've had no need to do it now seeing how I could now afford what I need to buy and with gaming, I'll buy it on steam to test it out, and if I don't like it or it runs like shit, i'll refund it.

thegoogler got a reaction from soldier_ph in Microsoft rewarding people that use edge
I was in my car and I heard a random add saying that Microsoft are now rewarding people that use Microsoft edge and bing by giving them free things from the windows store. Is this true? And if this is then Microsoft is getting really desperate.

i guess, but if you wanted to build a Hackintosh then it would be good.

thegoogler got a reaction from Amotthejoker in Deepcool rgb lighting kit
I have that exact kit in my PC and it works brilliantly, bright colors, very vibrant for its price. I definitely recommend them.

thegoogler reacted to Shingouki in Windows won't startup
Well, if you have another computer, you could burn a dvd with MSDART on it, then boot from it.
From there (or from a linux live cd) you will be able to see the log, that will point the error.
If it was after a major update, it's a partition error, if it's only after a scan, maybe the antivirus messed up (a false positve, i hope)

thegoogler got a reaction from astrosheen in Buying now or wait for Vega?
the thing is that with vega you don't know how good it will be, so if you want to i would maybe buy a gtx 1060 if i was you.

thegoogler reacted to The Sloth in Is a 7700k enough for streaming?
what game? a 7700k is a pure gaming cpu while ryzen is more or a gaming and streaming type, especially with heavy multitasking load.
-
thegoogler reacted to Oshino Shinobu in Ryzen or nah
7700K is better and cheaper. Gaming alone isn't really the 1800X's strong suit. It is designed to be good at multi-threaded applications. Things like gaming and streaming, it may start to pull ahead.
-
thegoogler got a reaction from Shiv78 in Ryzen or nah
the 7700k is better for gaming but the 1800x beats it in multi-core performance obviously. but yeah if you are gaming go with 7700k.

thegoogler reacted to He_162 in i7 7700 vs 7700K
A B250 motherboard will be cheaper, and allows overclocking still.
