Building a new desktop

17 July 2014 - 12:05 AM

As the title says, I'm finally building a new desktop and was looking for some input. I'm primarily going to game on it and probably do a bit of photo editing from it. My ideal budget is around $1600 - $1700. Kras has helped me tremendously with building this one from the ground up but I'd still like as much outside opinion as I can get because I've been out of the loop with desktops for quite a long time.

 

I was mostly just asking to see if there was anything that I could save some money on or if I was in dire need of anything to be added or upped. I can go just a little over the $1700 mark, but I'd prefer to stay around $1650 to $1700. Also if I needed to squeeze a bit more from this, I could remove the CD/DVD drive and just find one laying around to use. I don't use cd's at all save for maybe one or two select games, but I haven't used it in a long, long time. I'd guess the only thing I'd really use it for is to install Windows, but if that's it then I can simply plug one in and then remove it afterwards. Not sure if it'd serve any other purpose for me, though. I'm not really sure about my case. I'm likely one of the few people who'll ever see it, so I don't need a really fancy one, but I've put one on there that's about $50. A couple of the others I was looking at were around $80/$90, but that would put me over my preferred budget.

I'm looking at maybe buying one of these for my birthday, but I've never used one and I've never really made any electronic music. Anybody have one that could give some feedback and pointers on what to look for and where to start? There's a couple for sale online for relatively reasonable prices, but do I need anything else to go with it? Dunno what I'd need or what all I could do with one apart from just messing around and mixing stuff.

This was a little unexpected...

Slight hiccup in forum code

27 September 2013 - 07:52 PM

Not sure if anyone's pointed this out or noticed it in the past, and I understand that commons and IP.Board are visually similar, but I noticed a couple missing pieces after accidentally switching to IP.Board yesterday. Not a big deal or anything, just wanted to point it out in case anyone wants to fix it.

 

Spoiler

 

The image source for the logo on the IP.Board theme is blank on line 280.

<a href="http://www.brohoof.com/" title='Go to community index' rel="home" accesskey='1'><img src='' alt='Logo' /></a>

Should be http://www.brohoof.c...ohoof_title.png

 

 

Lines 350 - 380 or so there's a span image of the arrow on Commons that's not there in IP. What I assume to be a link to the arrow image brings up a blank 17x7 image file.

<a href='#' class='ipbmenu' id='more_apps'>More <img src='http://www.brohoof.com/forums/public/style_images/master/useropts_arrow.png' /></a>

This line seems to be missing: <span class="nav_sep">→</span>

 

Otherwise, it's all there in Commons, I just so happened to mouse over and accidentally click IP.


Possible old grief

Got to looking around the mountaintop in Everfree and was curious how the lighting worked. Logblocked around a bit and thought this was probably an accidental break and repair by someone who was also curious. In any case, here it is.
