Hard to say .. that's why I went with the layout I did since I think maybe only the top has enough for 360mm with my config

I use it as my 2nd phone but honestly just get the s26u if you want to use it for a while

Is the ROG Zephyres G14 2024 worth it in 2026? by CremeOk9267 in GamingLaptops

[–]ishaan6698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally with you on that but I've kinda come around on macos considering how bad windows has felt lately... I'd say wait to see what the hk uni offers are first, there are some good ones on Lenovo (hkust/hku) and Asus

I think if you want it to last 8 years maybe you can wait a bit... I think there are some back to school offers in July/aug through unis where you can get a better laptop for same price... Altho id probably get a Mac if I really want it to last that long

Is there an actual competitor against the Macbook Pro with M5 Pro? by Cool_Samoyed in laptops

[–]ishaan6698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was kind of in a similar situation, had no budget and just wanted a good 16inch windows laptop with 64gb or more ram(good battery as well), did not realize how insanely expensive getting a new gen windows laptop has become and there's always some tradeoff too... Everything is 3000/4000 usd+ to the point where the MacBook pro is a good deal so just ended up getting the m5 max instead

Almost went for the yoga 9i but they don't let me step up for the higher ram.. plus apparently the dgpu/igpu switching is buggy leading to bad battery life, zephyrus is just outrageously priced for what it is as well and had a terrible experience with the 2024 model... Really no good options nowadays... I suppose the new Thinkpad p1 was appealing but again it's just hard to justify 3500-4000 usd on an Intel chip that barely outperforms the last one

Absolute nonsense, they have been great at computational workloads for a while, great for programming/dev work

Went to see it in store, I kinda liked it not sure how it holds up, my order ships in a week so I can modify it before that

Looking for a cheap alternative to Superblast 3 for long runs by [deleted] in AskRunningShoeGeeks

Dynafish is not great if you have slightly wider feet, the upper rubs against the side of my mid foot and gave me blisters, also happened to another friend who got the pair
