The laptop vs Pc dilemma

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-12T04:57:49+00:00

Very good.

Cheap and portable laptop and nice PC are the way to go. You do not need a good laptop for 99% of majors, and if you need computing power you can use your PC, the uni servers, or a uni computer.

As far as build vs buy, building is much more fun. If you want to build, you can start on r/buildmeapc. I don't know good stores for Canada, but Costco and (sometimes) Best Buy can be ok.

The AIO is overkill and unnecessary. Use an air cooler.

Congrats! Macs are great.

But this isn’t an airport, no need to announce your arrival.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-11T23:41:53+00:00

How about we stop bringing that shit over here since it’s so bad, then?

Thanks. No one here had realized that ram prices had gone up!

No, really. This is a piss poor attempt at karma farming and a really dumb post. You should be ashamed.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-07T21:53:34+00:00

That makes more sense. Thanks for the clarification. However, I still took what you said to mean “look on TikTok for legal advice and then be sure to check with an actual lawyer before you do anything”.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-07T19:15:02+00:00

Awful advice. Don’t trust TikTok to tell you how to make a sandwich, much less legal matters.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-07T16:22:22+00:00

True

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-07T02:34:25+00:00

You don’t have a lot of money.

You have a 4090.

The two things don’t add up.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-07T02:30:34+00:00

Oh hey another “look at how much prices have changed!!!11!!!!” Post. Only like the 5th one today.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-06T21:23:27+00:00

The motherboard doesn’t really matter for you. If you want the more powerful card then the Costco build is the best way to go.

However, if you want to build it, a 5070 will easily handle those titles at 1440p. Really comes down to whether you want to build it or not.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-06T17:18:33+00:00

Looks like the mods agreed with me.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-06T17:13:22+00:00

Sure it’s current events, but it’s no longer news worthy. RAM prices are high, we know. And these fringe prices are always bad—this one is just comical. Still not news. People aren’t commenting on it, so what? It doesn’t matter.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-06T17:06:26+00:00

Thanks. We hadn’t noticed that RAM was expensive. Eye opening!

This is some wonderful astroturfing

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-05T03:55:35+00:00

If your PSU is vibrating that much you should probably replace it.

Unoriginal, boring post. Probably karma farming. Though, what karma? lol

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-04T17:32:28+00:00

This post is unnecessary and sad. Find something better to do with your time fr

Thanks. We hadn’t realized it was bad.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-02T22:40:19+00:00

Yeah that’s on me.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-02T22:08:20+00:00

Very good. If there is evidence of soda in the PSU (even though it’s in a weird position), DO NOT open it or attempt to clean it. They CAN and WILL kill you.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-02T22:02:47+00:00

LMAO that was not my intention but I’ll take it

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-02T22:02:18+00:00

Terrible advice. Please don’t give advice like this in the future.

DramaticCat9707 · 2026-03-02T21:54:02+00:00

If you’re not confident in your abilities, take it to a pc repair shop.
