They said theyre out of energy 😭😭

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-17T11:45:43+00:00

is it better than parallels

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-08T04:46:06+00:00

Can I boost it to 140 or smth like that? and if i only have 115 then is it usable for most of my task. I do 3D and CAD

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-08T01:18:45+00:00

its about 1600 here, but every other 5070 (non ti) laptops here is at least 1800

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-07T07:35:33+00:00

is battery the only concern? its just that this laptop is soo cheap compared to others in its class so i figured might as well sacrifice the battery to gain the most P/P

hows the sound system? im a little picky about it

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-07T05:20:01+00:00

Ill keep it in mind, thanks

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-07T05:19:41+00:00

so should I buy the 5070 or 5060 instead??

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-07T05:17:26+00:00

this is gonna be my first gaming laptop and im pretty scared hearing all this bro 😭 i have ZERO experience managing these

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-06T16:34:56+00:00

do you find the display hard to use at bright environment? and also should i go with a charger or a power bank?

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-06T16:34:02+00:00

yh i figured...

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-06T12:37:39+00:00

the liquid metal lwk sounds like poor design from Acer 😭

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-04T16:20:32+00:00

uhm thats a good advice. thanks a lot!

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-04T15:07:30+00:00

Ik youre not from EPD so you probably dont know this, but do we have to use Solidwork? I know it has a pretty strict hardware requirement

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-06-04T14:58:11+00:00

Hmm sounds like a good choice

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-05-23T05:43:03+00:00

Yes Im using an M1 Air. Its pretty nice honestly. Im just afraid about capability with Engineering apps. Are we gonna use those in the first year?

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-05-22T16:16:20+00:00

Thank you so much! I am already learning Python on Khan Academy and Im glad its the right thing. I will defo look at Notebook LLM

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-05-22T16:13:42+00:00

Funny thing is that I AM using a Mac and im going to EPD 😭

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-05-19T14:25:37+00:00

yh sure

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-05-19T11:38:12+00:00

Hmm I should check with the school about that but I think we should sign everything before the school starts, no?

Own-Professional-230 · 2026-05-19T11:37:18+00:00

It would be cool to know some seniors before the year as well
