  1. This could just be due to the asian region. I too bought this exact laptop just a week ago from the dell store. (I am from southeast asia) hahaha. but it had the i3-1135g7, 512gb nvme ssd. upgrades, however it still was 4gb ram. this cost around $500 US. They probably really cheaped out on that part of the specs. I have already upgraded the ram to 16gb tho. so it's all good now :3 to the op. yes this laptop is terrible for gaming. but esports games work well on it, so there's that at least. Probably upgrading the ram may stop more intensive games from crashing.
  2. I suppose it's to keep the environment fair. especially in online games such as fortnite. A player using kb+m will have a significant advantage over the controller. If you want to use kb+m then stick to your PC. since soncsoles were designed for controllers in the first place. this just feels like you're just looking for a reason to complain about something on consoles Also. I tried connecting my kb+m to my ps4 to play ac valhalla. and it feels terrible. I guess 30fps doesn't translate well to kb+m since the framerate isn't good enough for the responsiveness of a mouse.
  3. That long black slot is where the videocard will fit. And since you said that this pc is BTX. I can assume that you can fit a dual slot videocard (it will cover the white slot) but it may be a tight fit. depending on the thickness of the cards cooler
  4. At this point, the Xbox One X is a bad choice, unless you get an excellent deal on it Getting a 2nd hand xbox one S is a good option too. since the previous gen xbox are still going to get games for the next 2-3 years. also, xbox one games are getting really cheap, so it's handy to have a disc drive.
  5. My previous keyboard was an Ornata v1, used it for 2 years. it was a great keyboard still felt very tactile, although bottoming out was still a bit mushy, as expected. however, the initial click still felt very satisfying. But sometimes the metal clip, or whatever was doing that tactility would wear out, so i'd have to open it, and rebend the clip outwards abit just to get the tactility back to 100% there should also be other brands that are full mechanical keyboards at the same price point, such as the logitech g512 carbon, or redragon keyboards
  6. any ram from 3200 to 3600 should be fine. personally i use 64gb tridentz 3600, and it's working great on my 5600x
  7. I cant comment on that, since i dont have a 4k tv. hahaha, but so far. on a pc monitor, 1440p looks excellent. and yeapp. even i am surprised by how long the battery is lasting. hopefully, your battery gets just as great luck if not better.
  8. Most likely. you should be fine, as I said, I used my laptop plugged in 95% of the time. and I don't remember the last time I ever let it drain to a low percentage. usually batt stays in 90-100% charge. As for the resolution, since 4k 60hz cant be done on the laptop. maybe you can go for 1440p at 60hz? it is a downgrade from 4k, but at least it is higher than 1080p
  9. idk about Lenovo batteries, but my 2011 MacBook pro 15" still has its original battery from 2011. and I use that laptop plugged in like 95% of the time, even stays plugged in when I'm not using it. I just unplug it whenever I don't plan on using it for awhile. So far it has 76 cycles, and 86% battery health. which is huuge, considering that this is a 10 year old battery at this point. My guess is that your laptop battery should be fine plugged in all the time, so long as it doesn't get hot. batteries hate high temps. I'm not really familiar with the video port outputs. but for me, 1080p is still perfectly usable. Also, since you will be using it to emulate games, I am assuming that it will be ps2 era games and older. anything above 1080p wouldn't seem worth it, since the games were designed to run at lower resolutions.
  10. i got some tridentz, and yes it is running at xmp 3600. I suppose if i were to pay attention to fps i could notice the increase, however i mostly play easy to run games, such as valorant, sea of thieves, sims. so i guess that's why i never really felt a huge gain in fps, since it was already in the 100+fps to begin with
  11. i jumped from 64gb ddr4 2666 to 64gb 3600 and i dont notice anything different
  12. I have the same keyboard. but the G512 version. also blue switches. hahaha . great keyboard
  13. M1 Macbook air just arrived. now my pink mac build is complete Then i made my old 2011 15" Macbook Pro setup a white theme. Forgive the mess. i was working in the dining room
  14. no. you shouldn't have any ram clearance issues. you can just google the wraith prism cooler, and look at images to get a grasp on what it would look like on yours
