So today I did the laziest thing ever, bought new clothes when I went grocery shopping so I didn't have to do my laundry for another few days.
Doing a backup of a Mass Effect folder before doing some texture stuff

You must send that hdd to Pentium so we can build him a new retro pc.
Which would be better for using on a computer that will only ever be used for controlling a 3D printer over a web interface and is extremely weak? Windows 7 or Windows 8.1?

Yeah, I was gonna say I agree with the CPU, but maybe it'd be equal/less inferior if it was the 8350.
You can sell the GPU though at some point to maybe someone that wants to do 760 SLI and replace it with an 880 or 870 or something, but if you start to become limited by the FX in games there isn't really much you can do.
It seems bonkers to me to spend over a grand on a rig with a mid range FX processor which in games is mostly comparable to an i3.

Because the most demanding game I'd be playing would probably be Skyrim?

Then you should have no problem with the 760. It just seems nicer to have a decent upgrade path if you need it.

I tried SpeedGrade today for those botched recordings. No idea what I'm doing. Or maybe I shoot my videos perfectly to begin with.

wow racist
blackface is not cool
So Intel just delivered the killer blows to AMD's desktop CPU-only stuff:
Coming soon is:
-Haswell Pentium Dual core with unlocked multiplier
-New Unlocked i5 with improved TIM for overclocking
-Socketed, multiplier unlocked Broadwell desktop CPU with Iris Pro - this puts to bed the rumours that Broadwell desktop will be BGA only.
-Haswell-E with 8 cores.

Gotta give it to them that they have a sense of humor.
Unless that's a real issue they have.

But AMD doesn't really care about desktop cpu's anymore

It's true, but the Overclocked Pentium + cheap dGPU is certainly a threat to AMD's APUs.

Ehh there's really nothing special about this anouncement to be honest. Everything's pretty much expected.
Also why don't Intel just kill off the Pentium (and Celery) family already? I hardly see a place for them even for the niche market.

Thank you Intel for going the sane route.

I was expecting the rest bar the unlocked Pentium.
The Pentiums and Celerons still have a place in low end PCs for sure. The Celerys are much cheaper than an i3, but to an end user like my mum make no difference whatsoever. It gave a nice upgrade from C2D and only cost me £60 for the mobo and CPU.

I knew you were sarcastic. My Sarcasm meter is pretty spot on usually. I used it as an opportunity to explain that specific feature.

There are use cases. Not all computers are desktops, laptops, servers or tablets - at work we have a table full of point-of-sale registers, which run CPUs ranging from the i486 (made in the last five years no less) to a Core 2 Duo. A modern Celeron would work perfectly fine for even a high-end model, since that Core 2 box is overkill (but hey, it's an IBM hardware product - they make good stuff).
And then there's things like Chromebooks, or thin clients, or set-top boxes, or dozens of other things, where cost is key and performance is unnecessary, but x86 compatibility is helpful. Having a $40 CPU instead of a $140 CPU is a pretty big price difference.

Which allows cheaper products and reallocation of money towards upgrades on the device, like a better screen or better build quality, etc.
Guh, my dad'd probably call me stupid if I was to replace this case, he'd probably think I'm wasting my money and can't make right decisions.
Why would you use anything other than a cardboard box
