General computer talk/advice

I Upgraded my computer to Windows 10. Last time it was windows 7.

 

I really doubt anything got corrupted.

 

What I meant is Upgrading from windows 7 to windows 10.

 

Once you get rid of all the annoying advertisement shortcut things in the start menu and get everything set up the way you like Windows 10 is a good OS imo.

 

well, i never use these machines, so i figured i would sell em. so i listed them on craigslist. i dont know if any of it will sell.

 

Classic Shell anyone?

 

I wish I lived near you, I'd be all over that G4 cube.

 

I use 10 without classic shell, once you get the start menu in 10 setup right it becomes really nice to use after you get used to it.

 

I get your point. I was just using Classic Shell already, because the metro surface from Win8.1 is just annoying to use. Have barely used the Win10 start menu yet.

 

I wish more games were available for Linux. I've got CentOS on one computer and Mint with XFCE on another. Both are absolutely amazing. I also love the DoD level security available on CentOS...

 

What do you guys think of the gigabyte ga z170 hd3p?

 

Seems fine to me.

 

Do you plan to overclock? If so, how much do you want to OC? Do you want SLI? USB 3.1? Onboard DP?

 

Because i found this for a 100 euros with a i5 6500 and 3200mhz ram chips with 8gb it would cost 400 euros

Overclock maybe later when i have enough money for a i5 6600k sli and usb 3.1 isnt that big of a deal because i dont have anything that uses this

 

You don't actually have to care about SLI unless you have enough money for two GTX 980Ti's, which next to noone has. For €100-120 it's a great mobo that you can overclock with and seems to be pretty high quality. I could also recommmend an Asus Z170-K, although it's €20-40 more.

 

Overclock maybe later when i have enough money for a i5 6600

Because im opperarring on a immensly tight budget 20-40 is too much sadly and my dad is for this one and he pais some of it so i have to get that

 

Don't get a Z board with a non-K CPU unless you plan to get one in the near future (no more than 18 months). Go with H170 instead, save some money. Or H110 if you're on a very tight budget. What are your planned specs?

 

My planned specs are that board a intel core i5 6500 (just for a year than a 6600k) 8gb of ram and a 750ti gpu wich i have currently in my old pc

 

Don't think a 6600K is a major improvement over a 6500. At least think about spending the extra few dollars right at the beginning, or go with a cheaper mainboard. Either way, your GPU is going to bottleneck you in most games, buy a new one next year. There's going to be new GPUs this summer.

Take a look at these:

http://www.amazon.de/Asus-H170-Plus...&ie=UTF8&qid=1458818714&sr=1-16&keywords=h170

 

with the new gpu I will wait for the new gen maybe im going to get a AMD GPU because I heard that they are qouite good for their money so maybe next year or so.
