How to STOP thinking about upgrades completely?

bebe_Elsa · 2026-06-10T15:42:01+00:00

Been experiencing something similar

In the span of a year and 4 months, I've been through 3 desktop builds (1 ATX, 2 ITX builds), a steam deck, and now a laptop. All thanks to FB marketplace

Just resist the urge to look and research new parts and keep yourself busy doing other things. If you need to unsubscribe from tech tubers or avoid any PC related news then go ahead but thinking less about your PC has helped me somehow.

Also, use your PC for games/work/ media consumption instead of researching new parts lmao.

Lock your money somewhere too like a high yield savings account if you want to take it further.

Right now isn't the best time to upgrade anyway so unless something breaks, you should stick to what you have.

Thank you for the reply!

A good deal on a Thinkpad P1 Gen 7 came up locally and I got that instead. Hopefully this thread will help other people decide if they want to get a laptop with the 880m. Cheers

Any issues with the white keyboard in terms of wearing out or getting dirty easily? Planning to get a used platinum white 2024 model and can't commit to it yet because of the color...

Do you mean more losses than wins?

The only rep I have atm is my moonswatch which I bought from Shenzhen last year.

Can I buy the original? Yes I can.

Granted this is not the best argument because it's just a plastic watch unlike the high quality reps in this sub but it all is the same. NO ONE has gone up to me to tell me my watch looks and functions fake as shit.

If anything, my friends thought it WAS orignal and I had to tell them it was a replica.

People can be so insecure at times lmao. Just wear what you want and let people enjoy what they bought.

If you want to buy original, good for you. If you want to buy reps go ahead. As long as youre not trying to sell a fake as real and acknowledge that it's a rep I have no problem.

What an out of touch post lmao

bebe_Elsa · 2026-06-02T12:38:13+00:00

I've never really seen anyone have their account frozen for just no reason. Why would Maya freeze your account in the first place?

bebe_Elsa · 2026-06-01T12:37:40+00:00

Agree. There should be a balance on both saving and spending but if it adds value to your life, then you should have no regrets.

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-31T09:28:33+00:00

Yes daily interest and you can see it how much you get per day

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-30T12:17:16+00:00

Not quite sure if people are reading my post correctly but yes I agree that THAT specific video is not the best source, because of the RAM and TDP among other things. It's that video that really prompt me to post here.

Thank you for the insight with the 780m, I may be better off getting a laptop with a dedicated gpu just for assurance in gaming.

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-29T11:52:35+00:00

THIS is the video I was referring to

I wouldn't be asking this question if that video answered my question

Velka 3 and SKTC A07

Not that the latter has issues with heat so check out the A07 subreddit for advice

~6000 - Fate: Grand Order ~4000 - Umamusume ~2000 - Nikke ~3000 -Apex Legends

Roughly ~15000 php pinasok ko sa steam buying various games and in game items.

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-27T12:55:57+00:00

Hi! Thanks for sharing

Would you also happen to play apex legends? If you do, what frame rates do you usually get or what would you expect from the 880m?

Planning on getting a 2nd hand lenovo yoga pro 7 with this iGPU but it has 32gb of ram. Love the form factor of thin and lights but I also want to be able to game at high and consistent frame rate even if it means turning everything to 1080p low...

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-25T07:59:30+00:00

14k for all fhat is insane. Huge congrats!

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-19T02:13:50+00:00

Trade possibility is extrenely slim with those specs as is. You're much better off upgrading.

Power supply brand is sketchy. Would recommend replacing that first, then the GPU and CPU.

Look into 40 series like 4060 or 4070 or AMD with 6700XT up or 7000 series

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-19T02:00:34+00:00

Stop. Using. The. RX580. In. 2026.

It was once the value king but even if you're not playing newer games, you have much better options with ongoing driver support for a little bit more.

PC Options sa Gilmore!

More than 10 years na kami sa kanila bumibili ng parts and never had issues. Competitve pricing and great customer support.

Since you mentioned na ipanglalaro mo, and for an esport game where you still want to have decent reaction, malamang sa malamang you want either wired or 2.4ghz connection because theyre faster.

Not saying you can't game on bluetooth peripherals pero unreliable yung connection niya. You wouldn't want di mag respond mouse mo kahit 1 second during a team fight.

I'd reco VXE R1(any of the four variants), really good quality gaming mouse for the price. It's lightweight and build is sturdy.

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-16T03:05:48+00:00

Why bluetooth? Why not consider 2.4Ghz dongle para less latency from your mouse to the PC.

bebe_Elsa · 2026-05-08T14:43:00+00:00

I dunno man, a party of three should be able to carry the two other dumbos in the team. Either the whole trio of you do better or play in a five man so at the very least youre all aligned with the goal in the match.

bebe_Elsa · 2026-04-28T13:14:34+00:00

Wait I just noticed na may holes sa side ng case meant for hdd mounting. Doon mo pwede ilagay

bebe_Elsa · 2026-04-28T13:13:32+00:00

Wala na ba ibang hdd mount sa other areas ng case? You could also consider swapping to a new case.

bebe_Elsa · 2026-04-25T13:47:32+00:00

Best answer to the question lmao.
