1600, no point in getting X versions unless you can get them for the same price or cheaper
I use an ASUS Prime B350 Plus having no issues with it an if you're planning to do overclocking it uses an offset mode instead of manual (cpu voltage (1600s is 1.23V) + set amount of voltage you added) like some motherboards MSI B350 Gaming Plus or Tomahawk arte also good motherboards from what I've heard about
Look at something like Corsair Vengence LPX/LED or G. Skill Tridents or Ripjaws

You will need a phantom power supply to supply 48v for that microphone and u will need a microphone stand too

Most consumer grade headphone wont use XLR some mic however use XLR.

oh myb i just saw XLR under filters in this and never checked what it was for https://eu.audio-technica.com/headphones/studio-dj?

The easiest way is to just put the file in a zip file and link to the zip the same way you would link to anything(<a href="file.zip">Text</a>). Zip files are automatically downloaded. You could also use some simple PHP code to force downloading of other file types outside of zip if you would prefer

Since Linus plays badminton in his free time wouldn’t it be cool to do an lmg vs Linus and his team as a nerd sports epidsode?
 
please let me know what u think 

Not terrible for the price no. However i would look around for something with a ryzen 5 1600 and a gtx 1070 around that pricepoint. Not to mention an ssd.

try RMAing it nothing to go wrong can it

Damn....

We had questions about this one to begin with, but after some vetting, including community feedback:
 
everything seemed relatively standard.
 
We're going to be checking into this immediately when everyone returns to the office tomorrow and will hopefully be able to provide an update soon...

Will try that as soon as I get back home from work. Thanks

I myself haven't played WoT like the guy above but I hope this helps

The performance boost would be if you pair it with a HDD, and then the size of the optane drive would be the amount of data that gains the "speed up". 
 
If you already run a good SSD, you can leave the optane drives where they are... in the store.

As this is a topic involving (perhaps considerable) money, let me preface my guide with this: I assume no liability for anything that you do as a result of this guide.  Proceed at your own risk.
 
I will attempt to explain both all the basic concepts that seem to not be anywhere else in plain English as well as how to start the mining process.  That said I will assume a certain level of knowledge, like why one would want to do this and generally what it is.
 
Checking Profitability
First thing you'll want to do is make sure this is actually worth your time.
As a rule of thumb, it works best on AMD cards, but do a search for your card name and "ethereum MH/s" or "ethereum hash rate" or something like that to figure out how your card will perform this task.  My Fury gets around 32 MH/s, but this number will vary by currency (ethereum vs bitcoin, etc.) and GPU (R9 390x vs GTX 980, etc.) Figure out how much power your whole system consumes, from the wall.  If you have a power meter or UPS that will give you exact numbers, that's obviously ideal, but estimates are good too... except when they're massively wrong.  My whole system (ie, the parts inside, once they've passed through the inefficiency caused by the PSU, plus my monitors) comes out to around 410 W when mining (obviously less with the screens off, or more if I was working the CPU hard, which this will not). Figure out how much your power costs in $/kWh Plug the numbers into this handy calculator: https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator/eth If you get a good number, continue on.  If not, rip
Well, even if it's not profitable yet, I suppose you could mine anyway under speculation the value will increase significantly in the future so you can cash them in for a profit somewhere down the road, but I would not advise this honestly.  We have no way of knowing what the price will do, and if it isn't profitable yet, your hardware just isn't well matched for it.
 
Background
This all works using a distributed system rather than a central mainframe.  Every user has an "address" (something like 0x7F0760d8708Ea15c98b74A) which is anonymous but public.  The entire system keeps track of how much Ether is associated with each address, so you can sort of think of it as stored in the cloud.
 
Anyone can contribute Ether to any address without credentials, but to withdraw from it you need the password and keyfile it was created with.
 
Before you begin mining, you'll obviously want to create your own address.  To do this you will need a wallet program (details later).
 
To perform the mining, you will need a program for that as well, unrelated to the wallet (also explained below).
 
Download the programs
Wallet: https://github.com/ethereum/mist/releases
Grab the "Ethereum-Wallet-installer-0-8-10.exe" or whatever is appropriate for your OS
 
Miner: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.0
Use either the Google or MEGA links and get the one that is most recent.  "Claymore's Dual Ethereum+Decred_Siacoin_Lbry_Pascal AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v9.5 - Catalyst 15.12-17.x - CUDA 8.0_7.5_6.5.zip" as of the time of writing.
 
Getting Started
Install the wallet and open it, waiting for it to load.  This might take some time, but when ready, "Launch Application" will appear in the splash screen for you to click.  It will continue syncing as shown by the bar at the top.  This may take some time depending on your internet speed, as it needs to download over 24 GB of what are basically text files.  They are a list of every transaction ever.  It needs these to be up to date so it can tell how much Ether is associated with your address (once you make it).  By default this goes into C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\Ethereum so if this is on your SSD, consider changing that, or simply be aware it will take quite a bit of space.  It also continually writes to that location while open, so keep that in mind too.  Note that you don't need to have it open to mine, just open it when needed to check your balance or send funds.  We're going to use it right now though so read on and let it work.
 
(continued from the Background section)
Create a new account/wallet.  It will ask for a password; make it strong and store it securely, like banking information.  It will then generate an address for you, as well as a keyfile (which is stored in the keystore subfolder of the location mentioned above).  Treat this file like the password; ie, do not lose them, and do not let anyone else get hold of them.  Without the password and keyfile, you will only be able to add additional funds to your account, but not manage them, which is basically useless.  Imagine a bank account you can never withdraw from.  When people say backup the wallet, this is what they mean.  It's not like the Ether is actually stored in the wallet, but without access to it, it may as well be lost.
 
Now that you have an address, unzip the miner.  It will run from its folder so place it where ever you want.  Now we're going to edit the start.bat file.  Paste in the following:
Obviously fill in your actual address and (optional) a name for this computer.  If you have multiple computers, you can run this miner on each of them and give them different names to keep track of which is which.  You only need the wallet on one of them, and you only need it to create the account, and to manage your funds.  If you're planning to just mine for a long time and not withdraw, you could theoretically just not bother with the wallet (once you have an address created for yourself of course).
 
You may also want to change that URL according to the following (the one above is not the one I use ):
As for what those flags in the command mean, don't worry about it, it's all good  You can read more about them in the Readme file if you really want though.
 
You can now run start.bat and are mining   Give it a little bit to start up and get going (10 seconds should do it) and you should see some text that shows your mining rate if it's working.  Give it a few more seconds if the first few lines show 0 - it will come up soon enough.
 
 
Once it's been running for a few minutes, check on your progress here: https://ethermine.org/
Type in your address in the search (well, copy paste) and hit enter.  The page may appear blank at first, if so, just give it a little longer.  Before long you should see some dots and numbers appear there.
 
Example (some random person's page): https://ethermine.org/miners/58801ebec6685d0d5461a30999fa5df91549a59e
 
Now, the way mining works is work done is very "quantized".  It takes an enormous amount of computations to complete one chunk of work, but when you do, the entity that did gets paid a lot.  In order to smooth this out and make it work the way people would like (getting paid frequently in small amounts) people band together in "pools".  That is what this site is.  You do work for them, and as a collective, the pool gets paid when it completes a work unit.  This income is then distributed to all the members proportionate to how much of the total work they did.  However, it's not "realtime".  They will save up a certain amount, and pay you once the work you've done crosses that threshold.  What is that threadhold?  Well, by default it's 1 Ether, but they allow you to set it as low as 0.05 Ether.  To do this, go to the Settings tab on your page, type in the threshold you want, and also paste in your IP number (that's how they make sure it's you changing your settings and not some random).  You'll know it's the right one (the one they're expecting) if the last numbers shown match.  Hit "Save" and you should be ready to go.
 
For how to convert your Ethereum into actual cash, read Chapter 2 here: 
 

oops meant IED

it'd be a downgrade

overkill PSU for the build but if it's cheaper than it's counterparts than go for it

It seems that taking out all of the ram and making sure they go back in well fixed it. 

Also depends on what you're planning to play at 1440p because you'd have to play some games at lower settings because of the 1GB VRAM less

To add, in raw computing the 1060 3GB variant would win but that 4GB of VRAM on the 960 would come in helpful in high resolution gaming. I'd really refrain from buying a 1060 3GB if you're gonna push 1440p. Opt for the 6GB variant or if you can an 8GB RX 570/580.

I really wouldn't see the benefit of buying a 3GB model instead of the 6GB so unless you're upgrading from a really old GPU I don't think it's worthy

i personally like the idea i just wont be able to use it cause im an "activate windows" scrub

At the moment it's definitely better to buy the R3 1300X because the only chipset compatible with Coffee Lake CPUs that's available is Z370 and it's a huge waste of money with a locked i3. Though getting an R3 1200 and overclocking it should give you the same performance.
