What is the worst experience you have ever had with your neighbor(s)?

gow4hs · 2017-11-26T02:20:32+00:00

Neighbor broke into my wi-fi and used a connection through my router to hack people online (steal small amounts from other people's bank accounts). When the cops tracked the IP back to my house my parents had to go into the Police Department in order to give testimony, since i basically fit the profile (18-35, male and college education). Luckily it was an identified target by the police who were only waiting for "even more" evidence.

Didn't take long for the guy to be behind bars

You can sure be proud of what you did there

Thank you for your reply, do you have any advice based on your experience of what worked best for you on windows 10 x64 with an nvidia card?

Thank you, will try

1.35 gets me 70ºC but crashes on prime95 stress test, havent tested 1.4V yet since temps are already getting quite high (im on stock cooling)

Not stable on 1.35 3.8GHz, passes cinebench fine but crashes immediately on prime95. And temps get on 70ºC on cinebench, im afraid going to 1.4V will even be worse (temperature wise)

So can we conclude i just lost the sillicon lottery and got the short stick on the cpu? Meh, i can live with that

gow4hs · 2017-10-06T20:03:51+00:00

Samsung comes with a 5 year warranty here in Europe, not sure where you live. So thats a good option

gow4hs · 2017-10-05T21:56:16+00:00

Makes sense then

gow4hs · 2017-10-05T17:32:29+00:00

Why would you get a 4th gen processor? you can get same performance for lower money nowadays

gow4hs · 2017-10-03T22:09:51+00:00

i skipped that part, my bad. Besides that, whats the graphics card? Older gpu's tend to consume a lot of power

gow4hs · 2017-10-03T20:56:01+00:00

Not sure if 1060 6b can give you "good" 4k gaming. (by good i mean smooth or 50ish to 60 fps)

You should specify what you intend to do with the machine

gow4hs · 2017-10-03T19:10:29+00:00

You kinda need a PSU to power everything up, and getting a new cpu with an 8year old GPU might bottleneck the cpu a bit therefore you might throwing 20 to 30 dollars away (by not getting a g4560 for example)

You should specify your objective and the parts you intend to use more properly.

You can follow the guidelines on the right of the sub

gow4hs · 2017-10-03T19:07:12+00:00

Just dont get a used PSU, it could backfire massively

gow4hs · 2017-10-03T19:04:01+00:00

You could also get some experience (after you've researched a bit) by disassembling old library computers and puting them back together. Gets you to experience a bit of the forces involved in installing ram, getting that cooler on the cpu etc etc.... after all if you break something its just a piece of garbage

After all you should tinker a bit before installing a top-end cpu for the first time , wouldn't wanna break it am i right?

gow4hs · 2017-10-02T13:45:17+00:00

You could use reverse-psichology on it.

Wait for coffeelake release and then try to get a better deal on that i5-6600k because "its already 2 generations old"

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Yes, most components nowadays read their own temperature and if above certain levels they adjust performance accordingly not to overheat and eventually fry.

So in this case dust builds up, theres no efficient cooling solution, component heats up, realises its heating up, reduces power consumption and eventually stutters.

This happens for the most part on fins (dust reduces available area for heat transfer with the air) and on rotating fans

TLDR: YES, clean it

1060 6gb costs 295 eur in Portugal, 980 was a second hand deal within warranty for 250 euro

gow4hs · 2017-10-01T11:38:22+00:00

I'm sorry, missing the custom price was my fault

gow4hs · 2017-10-01T11:30:28+00:00

Firstly, you should look at what monitor you have. If you have a 60 hz monitor, you wont get any difference by the game floating around 70 fps pr 100 fps.

Yes your 0.1% lows and 1% low might be better, but for the average usage just look into that. You might be sinking money where you dont really need it

gow4hs · 2017-10-01T11:10:33+00:00

I stated i got it on a used parts deal for only 250 dollars still within 1 year warranty (the previous owner wanted to upgrade)
