General computer talk/advice

OwO what's this?

I'm gonna install it on a 200GB partition so I can dual-boot Windows and Linux. It's not a live disc because OpenSUSE don't do or support live discs, as far as I know.

 

OpenSUSE certainly used to do live disks. My experience with it as a distribution has been poor so far though

 

Ah, okay. Do you know when they stopped?

 

I always get errors from "NahimicMonitor.exe" when starting my PC. Does anyone know what's up with that?

 

hmm, still looking for a 10inch Core M tablet, but unfortunately I looked about and Core M GPUs are not as good compared to Core I series. The Baytrail atom tablet I have is quite bad in the graphics department (Z3735F) but the newer Cherry trail atoms are better allegedly.

 

Does any one know what the best upgrade for my laptop would be? I have 4 gigs of ram and a 500 gig WD blue hard drive. Should I get 8 gigs of ram or an SSD? Tell me what you think.

 

Seems it's something to do with MSI.

 

Ok thanks, I'll try reinstalling the drivers and some programs

 

What about this build?

> AMD

 

What do you mean?

 

New AMD CPUs with the same performance at a lower price point will come out shortly, and AMD GPUs are generally better for future proofing because Nvidia seems to not care about their customers currently.

 

No idea but my experience with OpenSuse is honestly don't bother
Worst distribution I've ever used. Chances of a crucial package just suicide uninstalling during an update are so far 100% taking the rest of the OS out with it. Utter garbage

 

Well, I am more on the NVidia side, and don't ask why, because I have my personal reasons.

 

So even if amd has a better bang for your buck and everyone has good experiences, you would still rather go for nvidia due to a past experience with amd? That doesnt seem fair to you OR your wallet.

 

Unless you owned an AMD gpu in the last 6 months or so you don't really have the experience on that, alot has changed driver wise in the last 6 months to a year. As for the CPU side of things the new AMD CPUs are looking better in everyway compared to what intel has and all for way cheaper, although we will have to wait for final reviews when they come out next month.

 

To be honest, I see them as the same.

 

@BlueScreen Remeber about 2 years ago you helped me with a problem about how to improve my PC for BeamNG to gain more FPS.
Well i can tell you this http://pcpartpicker.com/list/WW266h list is going to be built within the next two months. Selling my old racing wheel to buy the CPU then im working my tail off to buy that mobo. Is it still good to hit BeamNG with my GTX 760 OC?

 

Don't you just love how modern CPU coolers make access to memory slot challenging, you barely can see anything from photo, but fan and memory are actually overlapping just a bit, there is less than 1mm of clearance between them, I got lucky!


My PSU is fanless, so I put one fan there to suck, it also provides air to GPU coolers.
Keeping M2 SSD drives cool was one annoyance, one M2 slot is under that gpu, another is under that CPU cooler, I glued copper heatsinks to M2 drives.

There is also 3.5" backup drive, but it is disconnected usually.

I guess I should do cable cleaning and dust management, or what those were, but I'm messy creative person and I do dust management after snow has melted.

Oh and yes, I do live in a room that has been painted bright red sometime at 1960's when... oh, I guess that is story for another time and place

I might reveal my out of current times information base (read, my stupidity), but is GPU sagging when screws are not able to hold it on place or some PSU related power shortage which happens with powerful GPU's and not so great PSU?
