      at least its not Windows ME.

  2. Im having such a hard time reading this its not even funny...
  3. So your complaining about a 6 year old product being bad value. Guy we are in 2022 not 2016. The RX 6800M isnt that far behind a desktop 6700XT. Lower tier GPU's arent that much slower either. Not to mention if your shoving $1500 towards a poorly built product thats on you. Go ahead right now and try building a $800 PC with modern 2022 pricing. Then go look at gaming laptops and come back with the results. Your example is literally from 2018, far before the market conditions making laptops worth it ever became a thing
  4. Trust me its hilarious. $649 5600H+1650 combos were all over the place while your average 1650 sold for half that price alone. The 6600M and 3060 mobile are decent for the price points they are in and id recommend them instead of way overpaying a scalper for a half decent GPU
  5. Basically, Roughly what a 6600XT can be found for. Hell a 1650 can be found for $300 which is incredibly depressing. Thats why I recommend laptops in this market. Until the prices come down they are an outright better buy
  6. My guy the 10 series wasnt that long ago and neither was the 20 series or the RX 5000 series. Those did sell at MSRP until the crypto boom and later the shortages started happening. The point im making is that currently laptops are superior value due to the market we are in. You cant find a GPU at any reasonable price. Try and make a desktop for a $800 to $1200 budget and come out realizing your way overpaying for a GPU when you can grab yourself a laptop for the same price and come out with better hardware with decent availability
  7. Said GPU is that expensive due to the market, MSRP is $479 which makes sense with a $450 CPU. My point being is that because of the market laptops are superior. Good luck even getting a GPU for a budget of $800. On the laptop front however? You can pull a 1650 and a 5600H for less than that. If it wasnt for how terrible the market currently is laptops would be an inferior choice to a desktop
  8. My 5 year old Envy X360 and 6 year old Acer would like to differ. First of all good luck even trying to get a 6700XT+5800X combo for the price of the 5900HX+6800M combo. Secondly laptops last far far longer than given credit for if you maintain them like you would a PC (Dusting, thermal paste replacement, etc). Expensive? That I do agree on however in this market that isnt something you can complain about when everything is expensive
  9. Does sound like it posts then crashes somewhere, If it isnt displaying to an external display something is wrong but it does look to be a loose cable
  10. Just buy a laptop, Genuinely the performance is finally there and the pricing is reasonable. I personally bought one when my search for a 6700XT went nowhere for months and decided instead to get a 6800M based laptop. Its already been 2 years with this shortage and any real meaningful rampup of GPU availability isnt coming any time soon till maybe 2023 or 24
  11. Heres what you can immediately do to figure out if it has life, See if the caps lock even responds to input as it looks like it has some light on it. If it does respond to input its safe to assume it booted to some kind of OS. Plugging it into a TV is also another way of figuring out if it even posted in the first place. If neither of those work then the laptop is not posting. If it does post then it honestly looks like either a dead display or a loose cable
  12. So now that I have basically $500 to blow im torn between getting a Galaxy A52 5G or a Moto Edge

      The 256GB version of the Moto Edge has 6GB of RAM which should be plenty. Not sure where you are located but the 2020 model in the US goes for $400 which would fit the budget.

      Unfortunately it is unavailable nearby for me. The 2021 model still just barely squeezes into my budget so ill probrably be picking that up tomorrow. 8 GB of RAM vs 6 on the A52 5G sounds great

      So far its incredible, the smoothness of a 144 Hz screen and the power of the SD 778 is nuts 

  13. Welp christmas came early, I got my quarterly bonus out of nowhere and now I have a large urge to burn a large hole in my pocket

  14. Would you mind trading down some performance for roughly 85-90% of the performance of a 3080? Because you can score a 6800M for far cheaper and it performs like a charm
