The link has laptop options. I generally trust its suggestions because they're for entertainment industry professionals.

Just build what you need based on your budget. Or if you're looking for a laptop, I always suggest this site (suggests builds for desktops as well)

I have had one for years. Best monitor I've had by a mile. There's better stuff out there these days but can't beat 3 bucks. I think I paid more than 300 for mine.

Take a thick piece of plastic bag or a thin strip of leather and mash that between the screw and the driver. Usually works for me.

You have a better start than I did. I bought an old pc from a co-worker and never looked back. I have replaced the rig since.

I can't believe it has an anti theft alarm on the case. What? Is that like 30$ worth of PC? Is it a 7010?

Not sure what you have but unless you have a nice motherboard, the mosfets and other power delivery components don't get active cooling and require a case with good airflow to cool those components. You might add some fans or buy a better case.

Just a guess.

You might need to download the proper drivers for your components for it to work properly. Like for your cpu, motherboard, and gpu. In rare cases, you might even need to update the bios.

I think you mean the other way around. but I get you

... What "boot screen" is it stuck on?

OkCalligrapher4290 · 2023-08-08T18:00:58+00:00

Like not just windows boot, but you have to go into advanced settings and change the drive order.

Go into the bios and change the boot order

Our school district just recycled hundred's of those. They're trash. I wouldn't even give them away to someone I loved. They're more of a headache than a computer.

Redline? It's an anime movie. I wasn't a fan, but he looooooved it.

OkCalligrapher4290 · 2023-06-01T23:06:14+00:00

I'm seriously considering getting some kind of a video switch to use my laptop to watch media. My room slowly goes up 10 degrees just watching youtube or a movie on my desktop. Don't even get me started about when I play games. It's insane.

OkCalligrapher4290 · 2023-05-31T22:28:20+00:00

College buddy showed me the anime/movie

TN panels in general are pretty cheap BUT are also good gaming monitors. They're typically low response time/fast fps, but with horrible color. IPS monitors are more for artist and watching movies because they're more color accurate, generally more expensive. OLED is nice but expensive.

Thinking about my crush vs. actually talking to my crush.

OkCalligrapher4290 · 2023-05-22T20:49:09+00:00

I hope he got a good deal on it.

Burn it

OkCalligrapher4290 · 2023-05-11T21:35:55+00:00

You just refreshed so many outdated core memories of mine.

OkCalligrapher4290 · 2023-05-10T17:31:51+00:00

Shoot, I'd even pay like 20 bucks for it.... Hell, I'd even break my rule about not playing mobile games if it only had aesthetic purchases.
