Q: Seeing all the crafting materials on a recipe in Diablo 3 on console?

I just found the plan for Staff of Herding in Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls on Xbox One, and checking the recipe shows me 3 materials needed: Wirt's Bell Black Mushroom Gibbering Gemstone I found the names of those items from finding the recipe online. So, here's my two questions related to the c...

RPi Awesomeness

Anyone in here ever built a PC?

Rapitor

@RPiAwesomeness o/

Kevin van der Velden

@RPiAwesomeness yes, regardless of which bit

I've build computer cases from scratch :D

RPi Awesomeness

lol

Kevin van der Velden

And soon I will have space to do that again

RPi Awesomeness

20:09

kk...I have a few questions, as I'm planning to build my first desktop :D

I'm hoping I can keep the budget within $500-$550 (I know, low-end, I can't afford any more :P)

Kevin van der Velden

Where do you live?

Cause my go to resources won't help much unless you're in holland =p

Origami Robot

@RPiAwesomeness That's low-end? I must be doing it wrong.

RPi Awesomeness

@KevinvanderVelden You can still provide information, if not on pricing

Kevin van der Velden

@OrigamiRobot for a whole computer? That's not quite mid-range I'd say

Rapitor

@RPiAwesomeness building yourself is a ton cheaper than buying ones in-box. 500$ is more than enough for a very competent rig

Origami Robot

20:11

@KevinvanderVelden For the tower.

RPi Awesomeness

That's what I'm hoping. And, seeing as I'm not needing a huge, massive, Skyrim on Max settings build, I'm hoping I can get away with a decent build. That's why I'm asking around

Unionhawk

I'm thinking of keeping all these "% Okay, now what?" comments in this Matlab code. Just to express my confusion for matlab.

Kevin van der Velden

@RPiAwesomeness you can get a pretty decent rig if you buy components and put them together yourself

RPi Awesomeness

Regarding GPUs. If I'm not planning on doing serious gaming (maybe Minecraft), what should I be looking at for GPUs?

@KevinvanderVelden Exactly what I'm planning on

Rapitor

@RPiAwesomeness start with motherboard/cpu then focus on what is compatible with that. RAM, Video, and then make sure you have a powersupply beefy enough for it all.

Unionhawk

20:13

iirc, Minecraft is more CPU intensive than it is GPU intensive. I could be totally wrong though.

Arperum

@RPiAwesomeness How much mods will said minecraft have?

Kevin van der Velden

@Unionhawk you're correct.

RPi Awesomeness

@Unionhawk Yes it is

Kevin van der Velden

It's not-very-well written java

Arperum

Because more mods = more load on nearly everything.

Origami Robot

20:13

I'm still calling @UNI wrong on principle.

Rapitor

you don't even need a case if you don't want to.... make one yourself out of whatever... just make sure it has enough airflow

Unionhawk

@OrigamiRobot This is fair.

RPi Awesomeness

@Rapitor lol, yeah...I was at a friends house and we needed a Minecraft server to play. His dad is a tech guy and he slapped together a working Windows XP computer in ~5-10 minutes in a cardboard box top.

Kevin van der Velden

@Rapitor If you're going to do that for your first rig then you might as well not use a case =p

RPi Awesomeness

I want it to be fast, able to handle Graphics (GIMP, Photoshop) and 3D rendering (Blender) and possibly emulation (VBox, NES)

Rapitor

20:15

@RPiAwesomeness those kind of graphics are different than traditional gaming cards... and usually more expensive...

RPi Awesomeness

I know for most of those, I will need a good CPU, but I want to know what I should look for in the GPU...any suggestions

@Rapitor Wonderful :P

Kevin van der Velden

@Rapitor hardly

Those are all just CPU unless you want a really expensive pro card

RPi Awesomeness

In my case, would this be overkill:

Every computer I've build (3) has been able to run games at the time on High settings for ~$500

maybe I'm just not playing the right games.

Kevin van der Velden

Big question, does this 500 include monitor/mice/keyboard/sound?

Origami Robot

5 mins ago, by Origami Robot

@KevinvanderVelden For the tower.

RPi Awesomeness

@KevinvanderVelden I've got a crappy mechanical keyboard from like the early 2000s. A good Logitech mouse and a monitor. As for sound, no, I don't have anything

Origami Robot

Keyboard and sound is like $30

Rapitor

@OrigamiRobot the right way is 2 instances of BF4, 3 of Team Fortress 2, and a Minecraft FTB server for good measure ;P

Kevin van der Velden

20:17

@OrigamiRobot he never stated that

And I'm asking him =p

Origami Robot

@KevinvanderVelden I was clarifying my own claims.

RPi Awesomeness

Actually, I might have two monitors...

Kevin van der Velden

@RPiAwesomeness ok, monitor is really the most expensive of that, you can get a working sound set for 20 dollars

Origami Robot

I am also not counting OS

RPi Awesomeness

@OrigamiRobot Keep it that way. I'm installing Ubuntu and probably never touching Windows if I can help it.

If I can get an Intel CPU (another question, go AMD for price or Intel for quality) I will dual-boot OS X.

Rapitor

20:19

barebone kits are great cheapish starters for people who want to build their own rig

RPi Awesomeness

@KevinvanderVelden @Rapitor Is this GPU overkill?

$239.99

Origami Robot

I always go AMD for better power:price ratio, but I haven't bought a CPU in years so I could be out of touch there.

RPi Awesomeness

'Cause that's what ChooseMyPC suggested

Rapitor

@RPiAwesomeness half your budget on a card is a bit overkill.. as the other components can be pricy too

Kevin van der Velden

Hmm, I'm not sure. It's been a while since I looked this stuff up

Origami Robot

20:21

@RPiAwesomeness I keep my GPU budget at $150

Kevin van der Velden

But yeah, what @Rapitor said

RPi Awesomeness

@Rapitor That's what I was figuring

@OrigamiRobot That sounds about right

Origami Robot

I try to do $100 CPU, $150 GPU and go from there

FAE

@OrigamiRobot I was just talking about this with a friend earlier, she said that that's the case again, but the current i5's from Intel are easier/more reliable to OC

Kevin van der Velden

Try finding all the things you want, counting them up and then seeing what you can go down on if needed

Origami Robot

20:22

MB usually is ~$75, same for RAM

RPi Awesomeness

@FAE Yeah, I've seen that, but I'm not really considering Overclocking.

Origami Robot

PSU is the hardest part IMO

FAE

@RPiAwesomeness I don't really do it either, could be useful for you if you're doing stuff like rendering

RPi Awesomeness

@OrigamiRobot Not to mention getting a good looking, reasonably-priced case that works with the Mobo of choice

FAE

@RPiAwesomeness Cases aren't too bad

Origami Robot

20:23

@RPiAwesomeness Prioritize airflow. Aesthetics are secondary.

RPi Awesomeness

@OrigamiRobot True.

It's too small, my soundcard can't fit on the board, even though I do have a free slot. But it's kinda completely unaccessible due to cooling systems things.

RPi Awesomeness

I do want to have a SSD for booting and applications

Origami Robot

@Arperum I have never bought a sound card.

RPi Awesomeness

Thats about another $100 at least

Arperum

@OrigamiRobot I did, but it's at my nephew now, inside my old PC.

@OrigamiRobot Woah, Ivy Bridge i7s are down to about $300

RPi Awesomeness

Yeah...I can't afford a $300 CPUs. I'd love to, but I cant :P

Arperum

I could really hear the difference between the soundcard and onboard sound.

Origami Robot

Is it me or did Tom's Hardware used to be more recent in regards to their charts?

murgatroid99

@RPiAwesomeness You don't need an i7 anyway. i5 is the best you should get for gaming

RPi Awesomeness

@Rapitor Hmm...that Pentium CPU is considered better than the AMD A8-6600K I was looking by CPUBoss

murgatroid99

20:30

It looks like the i5s and equivalent AMD processors are around $200

RPi Awesomeness

I guess it just sounds old to me

murgatroid99

@RPiAwesomeness Probably because most of the pentiums you know are from 10+ years ago

Origami Robot

I have a Phenom II X4 945 and it's still going strong.

RPi Awesomeness

20:31

Probably

Frank

@OrigamiRobot Phenom's are good CPUs

Origami Robot

GPU is HD 6870

RPi Awesomeness

Obviously, you want a higher clock speed, but what else should I look for in a CPU? I know Clock speed, L2 cache, and cores...anything else?

That's all I need for a basic build, right?

Arperum

@RPiAwesomeness Don't get a separate soundcard if you have some kind of a budget.

Origami Robot

An SSD on a $500 budget is really pushing it IMO

Batophobia

20:34

You really only need HDD OR SSD but both is ok too

RPi Awesomeness

kk

Frank

@Arperum And sound cards are only needed if you're an audiophile, I think.

murgatroid99

@Arperum I built an expensive battlestation and I still didn't get a sound card

Arperum

Or you spend a ton of money on one, or you don't get one at all. Onboard sound is good enough.

Origami Robot

But I don't think SSDs are worth the money anyway, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

RPi Awesomeness

20:35

@OrigamiRobot I know, I just included it in case I can get a good deal

Arperum

@Frank Yup. And I am. At least somewhat.

RPi Awesomeness

I'd love a WD Black2

but they cost like $200...so...yeah

Frank

I had a Sound Blaster way back when, but I honestly can't tell the difference between on-board and dedicated card.

RPi Awesomeness

And I don't have very good headphones...so it doesn't matter that much anyways. I can always upgrade later

murgatroid99

@RPiAwesomeness You should use pcpartpicker.com to make sure everything is compatible

RPi Awesomeness

20:37

@murgatroid99 Yup...been doing that since the beginning!

murgatroid99

@RPiAwesomeness It looked like you were doing it all in a spreadsheet, so I wasn't sure

RPi Awesomeness

Yeah, I'm just dropping ideas onto there and comparing

Arperum

@Frank I had a ~€150 card, I could really hear the difference. The soundcard halped in filtering background noise from my mic too.

FAE

@OrigamiRobot I have a 965!

Going to replace it though soon when I upgrade. It's my biggest bottleneck now. :(

Frank

@Arperum Which is good, if you use your mic a lot.

The only time I used mine is for Monster Huntering.

And I have no idea if @Raven or @Wipqozn can hear background noise.

RPi Awesomeness

20:42

And I might need to use a Mic...eventually I want to be able to do videos for my Blog

Arperum

I was voicechatting a lot back then.

FAE

@Arperum Huh, interesting. I've never had a separate soundcard either. I use my mic pretty much every day though.

Arperum

@FAE It was specific to the soundcard/headset combo. It was some card from creative, and I have a creative headset.

FAE

@Arperum Ah, gotcha.

Mad Scientist

@OrigamiRobot They're really cheap now, and the difference is certainly noticeable

Origami Robot

20:45

@MadScientist I think the same amount of money could be spent in other area for greater performance increases at this kind of budget.

This is my sloppy 5 minute build

$610

Mad Scientist

@OrigamiRobot I haven't build at this kind of budget, below a certain point an SSD just doesn't fit. But the difference is noticeable, and I wouldn't build without one now

RPi Awesomeness

@OrigamiRobot Example for me?

Origami Robot

@RPiAwesomeness If you want, I just like building computers. I really didn't put a ton of thought into each part.

RPi Awesomeness

I see

Origami Robot

It was mostly just rating and price.

And comparing to what I have now.

RPi Awesomeness

20:48

I actually looked at that CPU...I think I decided I might have been overkill

Mad Scientist

@OrigamiRobot The PSU seems excessive to me. And RAM seems to be pretty expensive right now, but I don't know the current market

Origami Robot

@MadScientist PSUs are the worst part to shop for.

I try to stay at $50 for them

Mad Scientist

I have a 420W Seasonic and my GPU draws more power than that one

Frank

@RPiAwesomeness If you can wait a month or two, Black Friday deals will probably get you really good bang for your buck.

Batophobia

^^ Good point

RPi Awesomeness

20:50

@Frank That's what I'm planning on.

Mad Scientist

The easiest way to save money on this build would be to severely downgrade the GPU. I don't know what Minecraft needs, but if you don't play games the price for a PC goes down a lot

Frank

I've been thinking about getting new monitors for myself, since they seem to be coming down a lot in price.

I wonder if there might be any decent deals on 4K monitors.

Blem

►

Frank

Or, maybe just get another two monitors, and mount them above my existing ones.

RPi Awesomeness

@MadScientist And I'm not going to be playing very many games (as of right now, any and all video games are banned from my house-hold. Always has been that way, I don't understand it.)

Origami Robot

20:53

@MadScientist Fixed

RPi Awesomeness

However, I'm going to be doing Graphics and 3D rendering (GIMP/Blender) and possibly emulation...so I've got to figure out if that factors in. I don't think it should...

Frank

@RPiAwesomeness That's not a place to really be living, then.

Origami Robot

Wait, is it automatically factoring in MIRs?

Frank

Because no video games would mean boring central.

RPi Awesomeness

@Frank EXACTLY! PREACH IT BROTHER!

Frank

20:54

isn't that right, @TrentHawkins?

Mad Scientist

@OrigamiRobot Is RAM really that expensive right now? I have 16GB for a while now and it wasn't all that expensive

Origami Robot

@MadScientist Seems so :(

I sorted by $/GB

RPi Awesomeness

I'd love 16GB. 8GB is all I'm going to be able to get for now :(

Frank

@MadScientist That's expensive?

Origami Robot

I have 8GB and it does just fine.

StrixVaria

20:57

Frank

I paid $80 per 4GB stick a few years ago.

RPi Awesomeness

Ouch

Origami Robot

If you're into this sort of thing.

Mad Scientist

@Frank It's probably because I'm used to EUR prices. But it doesn't look like it got any cheaper since I bought the last time

Frank

@MadScientist Nope, doesn't look that way.

Might be a good time to find cheap RAM during Thanksgiving.

I've used PCs with SSDs and I have not noticed a difference.

@badp you a word

Noctrine

The biggest problem was updating my adobe stuff moved the cache back onto my C drive, instead of the other SSD I got (and fully expect to burn out quickly) for it.

MBraedley

@OrigamiRobot SSDs are below 1$/GB now. Sure that's about 5-8x what a HDD is going for, but you make up for it in time saved over the life of the drive.

@OrigamiRobot you were using these PCs WRONG

Jason Berkan

@murgatroid99 I never reboot. Computers sleep nowadays.

Origami Robot

@Chippies Using a browser and playing games.

MBraedley

@JasonBerkan I hibernate my desktop each night, so boot time still matters to me. I could just put it to sleep, since the extra power savings with hibernation isn't that much.

murgatroid99

@JasonBerkan And yet, somehow my computer occasionally needs security updates. And every once in a while the power goes out

Origami Robot

@JasonBerkan Pfft, I never even sleep.

murgatroid99

21:16

@OrigamiRobot Those aren't the uses where SSDs help.

Chippies

@OrigamiRobot it won't affect your browser much or games for that matter, but the browser opens instantly and closes just as fast on an SSD

Jason Berkan

@murgatroid99 Laptop. OS X.

Origami Robot

@murgatroid99 Sounds like I don't need one then.

Chippies

once you see the desktop on windows, everything is already loaded and it's ready for use

Jason Berkan

At one point, my previous laptop had an uptime of over a year.

Chippies

21:17

Noctrine

@JasonBerkan Impressive.

Chippies

games that take long to load, load faster on an SSD

Origami Robot

@Chippies I don't open or close my browser on a regular basis.

MBraedley

@OrigamiRobot So in that case, yeah, an SSD might not matter. Start doing anything that is disk heavy, say compiling code, and you'll see a huge difference.

FAE

@MBraedley Yeah, that's one reason I'd like an SSD, I hibernate as well. Though partially that's because my HDD boot time is so long. >_>

Chippies

21:18

@OrigamiRobot if all you do on your PC is have a browser open and play games, then you probably don't need an SSD

Origami Robot

@MBraedley And if I did something that made the difference noticeable, I would have a different opinion.

Chippies

if you actually do stuff on your PC other than gaming and browsing web, it will make a difference

Origami Robot

I'm not saying my way is the way.

RPi Awesomeness

Oh dear. SSD HDD Wars have begun

/me hides under a rock

Chippies

@RPiAwesomeness hardly a war, you kinda need both, unless you're ridiculously rich, lol

I pretty much revived @Jennybeans 7 year old PC by installing an SSD on it

Origami Robot

I'm saying I know what I need and an SSD isn't it. Since I have no experience with them, it'd be silly of me to recommend them to people.

MBraedley

@OrigamiRobot I'd imagine you'd see a difference when working with AutoCAD, especially when working on an assembly with lots of parts.

Chippies

of course, a brand new HDD may have been just as good, but she has no need for high capacity storage, so SSD was a better option

Origami Robot

@MBraedley Probably.

I don't use AutoCAD at home though

Heck...my families is definitely not the fastest we can get. 100kbps if directly ethernet and if it's a good day... aww yeee..rocking dat crappy DSL

Jason Berkan

@Chippies - 1TB SSD is a $500 option on the top end Macbook Pro.

Origami Robot

@FAE The way I see it, if redownloading it is a hurdle, I don't want to play it very much anyway.

Chippies

@JasonBerkan that's... not actually too expensive, last I checked, that's what 1 TB SSDs go for anyway

Origami Robot

So I'm really saving myself space and time.

Chippies

I mean, not too expensive compared to non-apple options

Jason Berkan

21:27

@Chippies $500 more than the 512GB.

Chippies

@JasonBerkan ah, well in that context it is expensive

Jason Berkan

The 512GB is included in the price, so no idea what the actual cost is.

Chippies

I guess buying an SSD and asking apple customer service to install it is not an option?

Origami Robot

Silly @Chippies! Non-Apple products don't work with Apple products. Here, have more Kool-Aid...

Jason Berkan

@Chippies No. You have 3 options and they are all black.

Chippies

21:30

@OrigamiRobot not sure if making fun of apple or serious...

spugsley

FIANLLY I CAN DIABLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

MBraedley

@JasonBerkan I thought that was a hybrid drive

Origami Robot

@Chippies The Kool-Aid part doesn't give it away?

Chippies

@OrigamiRobot well, it is apple and I'm pretty sure I've heard other people saying that non-apple products don't work with apple products

especially peripherals

so ya'know, I wouldn't be too surprised if that was actually true

@MBraedley I actually don't know what it is. It probably isn't an SSD - my bet it's whatever they put in an iPhone / iPad.

The site just says "x GB flash storage".

Chippies

@JasonBerkan because it wouldn't be apple if they actually revealed any details to the customer

Jason Berkan

As opposed to the "x GB solid state drive" available on the non-retina Macbook Pro.

RPi Awesomeness

@spugsley uh...we have a Satan Worshiper in The Bridge...could we get some angelic help here?

jk..

Frank

@spugsley What's your best rift level?

RPi Awesomeness

I was making a joke regarding the word Diablo meaning devil

Chippies

21:36

have any of you paid attention to what intel and amd are up to lately? I think it's time to look into getting a proper PC for @Jennybeans, not sure if there's new stuff coming out soon or not...

RPi Awesomeness

Who's @Jennybeans?

spugsley

@Frank I've been away so the only one I did was the one with you guys that one night

@RPiAwesomeness huh?

Chippies

@RPiAwesomeness my wife

Frank

@spugsley Well, get on that. :P

Chippies

she was active here for few days and then she stopped... sigh

RPi Awesomeness

21:38

Ah...I see...that's what I was figuring

Chippies

I blame Wipqozn

spugsley

@Frank I wanna start seasons :3

Frank

@spugsley It seems like everyone does. :(

Nobody wants to rift with me.
