grimreeper132 got a reaction from lomax512 in ...................................
get something like an fujitsu A352 with and i5 and an i7 3612QM and upgrade the CPU of the laptop it is possible, I have done it and I believe it would be much cheaper. It will have an iGPU instead of a dedicated if you go with that model but that's the alley I would go down (also means you get an i7 rather than a i5)
links to what to buy (these are suggestions etc. and might sell out etc. but still)

the CPU and HDD of the laptop suggested would need to be upgraded though so look about maybe

I would say about £400-450 would be fair I would advertise about £500 and go from there though

If you've had windows 10 installed on the motherboard before then it should be fine.

grimreeper132 got a reaction from kelvinhall05 in Which PC should I get
true but you probably want one to game on, and a 1050ti isn't too bad on pricing or wait for the APUs AMD is about to launch as they might be worth it. Here is what I suggest for the moment

grimreeper132 got a reaction from Justin_ in Linus (Float) Coin suggestions
All I care about is if the picture being used for the coins, bitcoin have their images, linus needs one as well, which should fit in with the coin. If it's name is floatcoin it should be him and luke floating in water or similar. Or if they are going with sinkcoin him and luke drowning in water

Windows isn't great for stuff like file servers, like it's possible to do it with it, but just having a linux distro designed for it is just easier

taking note yea sure they can be good for that, but they are not power houses and can really only be used for simple tasks

I would like to see you do anything to do with engineering on an ipad, as you will not be able to run pretty much anything

Agreed. Good luck doing a lot of CPU or memory intensive/demanding tasks on a tablet
People have been saying tablets will replace laptops and PCs in general for a while now but it's just not happening for the most part.

yes, we need to try and get them to release a Aliware laptop now
-
grimreeper132 got a reaction from Sir Launcelot in What product would you like to see us review that we haven't yet?
that is a scam if I have ever seen one. Reasons why
1900X 16 core 8 thread 180W CPU in a laptop not possible
GTX 1180 isn't a GPU that exists (yet)
Aliware is not a brand that exists
that box does not contain a 17" laptop there is no chance in hell
6K 144HZ panel bullshit, you can't even get a 120Hz 4K monitor, which isn't just IPS, or TN it's IPS TN
6 cooling fans in that???
The IO does not relate to that picture of the CPU in any way
it has 3 2TB SSDs in two difference form factors why?
It has not just a mechanical keyboard, but the best mechanical keyboard
it has RGB zone lighting but as far as I can see there is no lights on it never mind RGB ones
NO IT EXISTS IT HAS SUPER RAID, everything with super Raid exists, and it gets even better its supper raid 4 for when 1,23, and 5 is not good enough
EDIT-
I just noticed there is a website on the box www.cdrking.com, and the product doesn't even exist on that website

@Crunchy Dragon You know what the most annoying thing about this is the fact that the couldn't even make their own website in order to sell it
and the chat log with Dell
so I am following their advice and am contacting Yuga Tech, their average response time is a day so I will get back to you when they do
