    Hello, everyone, I have a strange question for you all, I dual boot Windows and Ubuntu Mate on my 6 year old laptop and I noticed that when I reboot windows and instead exists windows and boots up Ubuntu, now, that is just a GRUB priority issue (I think), the real strange part is that when I boot straight into Ubuntu Mate without restarting windows the desktop env is crap, it is very slow and I can't even scroll pages without stuttering constantly, when I do reboot windows and it ends up into Ubuntu mate the desktop env is snappy and I have no issues with constant stuttering, I really have no clue what is going on here and I hope some Linux buff helps me out on this. My laptop specs are the follwing CPU: Intel core i7 3517U 1.9GHz-2.4GHz boosts up to 3GHz IGPU: Intel hd4000 RAM: 8GB 1666MHz DDR3 500GB Toshiba HDD 120GB Kingston a400 SSD (Both OS's are installed here)

    Uhh sorry for coming back after suck a loooooooooong time (again) but this PSU is cheaper here becaues it is made here, most computer components here in Brazil are imports that are highly taxed and have their prices blown up, say a US$55 450W corsair psu comes here and when converted to BRL it's around R$275, adding import taxation it goes up to around R$450 on a good day, this PSU is made here so no import taxation applied.

    Uhh sorry for coming back after suck a loooooooooong time but I don't see them testing the Brazil PC font on this video at any point, also they like to blow up PSUs (yes) are you sure didn't get those results from one of those videos?

    Worked fine enough, thank you for your response. This thread will now be closed

    Do you have any recommendations in a decent Disk manager? if it's not asking much a free and or open source would be much appreciated.

    Hello, I tried to separate my windows install from the software for it with a different partition for it called "WSoft" as you can see below, it's just because I was planning on formatting this PC later but I didn't need it anymore and thought this would cut down in setup time since I wouldn't have to install most of my software again, now I just need to extend that install partition but windows wont allow me to. Disk 0 is a Kingston 111GB SSD; Disk 1 is a 500GB Toshiba laptop HDD. The two other partitions are from a Ubuntu install.

    Hello, I am in the proccess of updating parts for my future PC since prices have gona up significantly and I needed to update my part list I have alreadly chosen most of them. Ryzen 3 2200G Gigabyte DS3H b450m 2x4GB DDR4 3000MHz RAM and the SSD I put on my old laptop (yeah we are going full budget here) For the power Supply I simply just wouldn't be able to fit reputable brands like Corsair, EVGA, Seasonic, etc so I started looking and found one manufacturer from my own country that makes these and this is what I found: TL;DR: I need a professional opinion on this Brazilian PSU or an opinion on this from someone who alreadly had it to see if it's reliable or if I'm buying a one use smoke machine.

    I think I will the 24MK430H seems like a sweet deal for an IPS monitor, I just don't know if my intel hd4000 will get something wrong with it's color or something can that be a problem?

    Very expensive (cheapest one was R$680)and I can't seem to find any IPS displays from them here in Brazilian stores.
  11. Trigonomancer
    people seem to really like Dell and Acer but for some reason their prices here exorbitantly salty, the cheapest 1080p IPS monitor I could find was at least R$950!
  12. Trigonomancer
    one HDMI is completly fine to me all I care about is ok color accuracy, blacks and contrast, resolution wise the max that I can render is 1080p, brightness wise even the 22MK400H was fine and also stand wise I kinda don't care as long it works fine and doesn't drop the thing on my desk lmao.
  13. Trigonomancer
    A lot of people recommended me the MK600 but I looked and it is just not sold in Brazil
  14. Trigonomancer
    Alright, I was eyeballing the LG 24MK430H which is pretty much the same as the 22MK but at 23.8" 75Hz and it's an IPS

    I tried to calibrate this one for a long time but at the end it did not make any difference at all, tried everything on the intel hd panel and on whatever windows let me, and also tried installing their drivers to no change at all either.
  16. Trigonomancer
    I was told many times today after asking in other places that I should not buy LG monitors if I am looking for color accuracy and my better options are Dell and Acer monitors, you have any recommendations on those at 1080p IPS? (I literally only have an intel hd4000 as IGPU and that's the max res it can display)
