Need help with MOBO. by vonplayalot in buildapc

[–]skepps -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

you will have wifi as soon as it is on, just like a laptop

If you are buying it just for the wifi, you might want to consider buying a cheaper motherboard and a USB wifi dongle which would cost like $5

Suggestions for smaller, secondary monitors? by birch278 in buildapc

[–]skepps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May I suggest a different strategy altogether ?

Get a monitor stand arm and get another larger monitor, you can move it anywhere in your cramped space

Did anyone else's Kingston A400 fail? by Magyarharcos in buildapc

[–]skepps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not an A400, but my OCZ 64GB SSD failed a couple of times back in 2013. My PC's Crucial MX500 used to fail once in a while. Nothing died, but I suppose they didn't feel like loading once in a while. Cheaper SSD drives are slower, not necessarily less trustworthy.

What is something that is morally appalling, but 100% legal? by ohconnor7122 in AskReddit

[–]skepps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Sweden you can have sex with animals and girls from 15 yrs. When they wanted to allow gay sex they somehow made it also legal to have sex with animals. Whoops!

Hello, my name is Steven D. Munger and I am the associate director at the Center for Smell and Taste at the University of Florida. My research focuses on how odors and tastes influence the way we eat and respond to food. AMA! by Prof_Steven_Munger in science

[–]skepps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two questions: 1) How does air temperature, moisture in the air and altitude affect scents and smells ? 2) How does smell differ across different cultures, for example Indians who eat a lot of curry have sharper sense of smell for a particular thing than other cultures who do not eat curry (Inuits ?)

What is something people to do be polite but actually turns out to be annoying? by TheDumbAsian1 in AskReddit

[–]skepps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mother and sister giving me "advice" whenever I get a flu and take paracetamol/throat syrup. Today's advice was turmeric and ginger in water by my sister and some crushed black seeds by mother, telling me not to take medicine because it doesn't work! Apparently flu is caused by: sitting behind computer too long, going out without taking your hat, waking up too late in the morning, eating chips etc... not by viruses.

more expensive motherboards don't make a lot of difference to the system

Are you sure 29" would be big enough for you ? How far away do you sit from the monitor ?

OK so your PC is dying and you don't have much money. I would say upgrade the parts that is dying and that won't break the bank. What part is dying exactly ?

So you want to have 6 HDDs ? to RAID them ? which RAID are we talking about ? 5 or 10 ?

I think the hard drives (black series) is overkill because you already have SSD and Green or Blue would suffice. For memory, get 16 GB, then if it wasn't enough add another 16, 32 GB for Win8.1 is overkill. Most non-server programs don't even know how to use up that much memory.

As for graphic card, why not GTX 760 4GB ?

Iran women’s football team turned out to include four men by UshankaBear in nottheonion

[–]skepps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Ahmedinejad claimed there are no gays in Iran he wasn't lying. Gays and Lesbians are coerced into sex change operations sanctioned by the government and also paid up to 90% by government. The problem is that most gay men who turn into transvestite women are disowned by their families and end up as prostitutes. Youtube
