main and only pc is:
45nm E8400 @ 3GHz, doesn't OC very well so after mobo battery died it reset my modest OC, haven't bothered changing from stock since except for a slight undervolt.
55nm radeon 4850 512mb underclocked/volted most of the time, the clockspeeds seem to be irrelevant for most...
Allman. I never omit braces as I want the linear structure to stay universal. An indentation of 2 spaces.
For heavy macro usage that others don't need to read I may switch to a wall of code style that is more like encoding than writing. As long as it remains systematic enough.
There are plenty of lighter variants than Mint+MATE. You can see some charts here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/517413/how-do-ubuntu-flavors-compare-regarding-resource-consumption-and-performance
One step down from that, and not really ugly, would be something Xfce based like Xubuntu...
I don't understand why some bash win7 so much here, it is under support and it is not an experimental OS like w10 seems to be. The OS is a cornerstone of the stability of your system and it is the last thing you want to play with if you are actually using your computer.
The note that not...
Future-proofing with current tech doesn't usually pay off. I would usually pick whatever is best for me right now, but I'm okay with not playing the latest and most demanding games as well.. I would probably go with the 7700k.
It really depends on your workload though. If there is that one app...
For normal users sticking with win7 makes sense as it is a mature gaming OS and it receives security updates.
Hopefully linux will be competitive enough in 2020s as Microsoft's current direction seems awful. Interesting to see how AMD's open source gpu drivers will improve by then, along with...
In short, only learn asm if you need to use it, as it differs between processors. If you like how it sounds, but have no use for it, learn C instead. asm is not hard and works pretty much like you'd expect.
I used to have some very slight corruption (eg files redownloading because checksums failed) and there were some suspicious errors in windows event viewer (but not many) from normal use. All the errors stopped when I changed either the SATA cable or the SATA port or both of the OS HDD.
It has...
CPU: E8400 E0 (batch QxxxBxxx VID 1.1)
Board: P35 ASUS P5K-E rev A2 bios 1305 (latest)
RAM: G.Skill F2-8000CL5-2GBPQ x2 = 4GB (rated 400MHz@5-5-5-15@1.8V and 500MHz@5-5-5-15@2.1V)
My initial idea was to start examining the limits of various important system variables while using the lowest...
Sounds fine to me.
LinX seems to find memory instability faster or as fast as HCI memtest, so it seems to be a good test for CPU/NB/RAM alone. I don't think I'll ever need more than LinX and FurMark for stress testing purposes.
