-PC Use:
-- Diablo 1/2/3, Warcraft 2/3. Stardew (Modded, with SVE if I can get it working), Bloodstained, grim dawn, various Sony games releases on Steam. https://steamcommunity.com/id/DlfC/games/ If you want to see what I've played and or my wishlist. Also, GOG. If possible, I'd like to try...
If people are going to suggest I replace the CPU/RAM/Motherboard as well then I guess I should replace them.
Total budget: ~$900 (if the GPU is $500 alone)
- USB 3 (+) support
- NVME support (I'd like to try to use an NVME SSD for the OS)
- Probably a minimum of 32 GB. I'm fine (for the...

DOOM (2016)/eternal /newer wolfensteins

I think it'd probably be better to do a "small" or medium ish upgrade, newer parts, being sold . . . Then several years from now when 4k, higher refresh rates, larger capacity HDD/SSDs and more (and faster) is/are cheaper do a complete overhaul (except probably the case, I'd imagine). Did Intel...
@Dangman, my current part list (of the system I built in about April of 2013 and since then have updated some. If I hadn't have gotten the k series of ivy bridge i7 and had a motherboard that allowed what I wanted I'd probably would be able to do GPU passthrough - and since I can't and want to...
- Budget & Location: Would $800 be enough? And USA
- What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.
*Able to pass a second GPU through to a virtual machine of Windows 7 (or Windows 8.1/10) to play Windows games on a Linux distro. And when I can/feel like it, playing...
I am on Linux Mint 17.2 (Cinnamon as DE) (with kernel 4.2.0.18 installed and loaded) and I'm getting this message when trying to add a PPA via the terminal: Cannot add ppa: 'no json object could be decoded'. What is the cause and what is the fix?
Secondly, I think I installe GzDoom...
I would like to at some point (see fourth bullet point below) replace my CPU (and my motherboard if necessary) and perhaps a second GPU (or replace my current one) for virtaulization - run a native linux distro (like Mint) and run a virtual machine of Windows while passing through a gpu...
Also the ebook reader will be that and that alone, no music, no games, no video, just books - if it's a android tablet (Nexus 7) I may use it for some apps that (aren't?) on android phones.
I am somewhat in need of a new laptop to take notes at school with . . . I also want something like a kindle (or reasonable sized tablet(?)) for e-books
Ultrabook:
11-14 inches
2-~4 pounds
I have a little bit of scoliosis . . . so not too heavy a system, but not too light that I hate...
I am a tad colorblind (red-green) so unless I'm playing some games (bejeweled 3, shooters, etc) I doubt TN or IPS would make that much a difference to my eyes. What boards from ASUS, Gigabyte & MSI would be better? First and foremost I want UEFI when booting the computer, an eSATA port would be...
I think I saw a different chart on Wiki that had a "no" for language swapping. Now just curious for price and launch window (see my 2nd thread as to why) :D:cool:
