  1. Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I have decided to stick with AMD this time. For the same price I have a options between Ryzen 7 4700u and Intel i5 1145G7. All other specs are identical like 512GB SSD, and 16 GB of RAM. With this in mind I'm willing to sacrifice Thunderbolt ports in favor of 4 more cores. I ended up choosing ThinkPad E15 Gen 2 (20T80020RT) with Ryzen 7 4700U . Price is 700USD. I also liked that it has both best keyboard layout for Excel and numpad(my friend, who is an auditor recommended ThinkPad specifically for this keyboard). One more thing - while researching I found interesting niche laptop. HP ZBook 17 G3 Xeon E3-1535m v5/32gb/512SSD Quadro M4000M It's roughly the same price, but I think someone can benefit form such build if their demands revolve around CAD or Solidworks.
  2. Thanks for the suggestion! I've researched what is currently available in regards to Ryzen 5 5000 models. Unfortunately all TP14s are overpriced(850+), but I found Asus VivoBook 14 OLED with Ryzen 5 5600H, 512 gb NVMe, and 16gb of RAM for 680USD. If everything goes well and it's in good shape I think it's a great deal. What do you think about 5500u vs 5600u? I'm curious what's the difference between Zen 2 and Zen 3 in same generation of CPUs. Haven't fount any comprehensive research in this regards.
  3. Hi! I'm a dedicated fan of desktop PC, but recently I decided to travel while working. I need: a well-built machine for Excel, media consumption and occasional graphic design works in Photoshop and Illustrator. Gaming not really important for me right now. Budget: up to 800USD. Used options: 1) MacBook Pro 2015 13" 2.9GHz 16GB for (700USD) 2) Surface Book 2 13" i7-8650U 1.9GHz 8Gb (800USD) Both models have less than 300 charge cycles so I guess battery must be good for a long time. Both options compel me because of build quality and display. Surface has dedicated graphics and other features like Windows Hello and pen support that might be fun. New: I know that in last years AMD offered great CPU performance in mid-tier laptops so maybe someone can suggest newer laptops/cpus that might be better in long run. Any advice ?:)
  4. I need SSD because my old 500gb HDD slowly dying. PLS ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Give it to me
  5. I guess this topick can be closed now. refinedskillz and huilun02 Ty for your time and help.
  6. Well seems like my idea was pointless or will have no impact on performance so I think i will just format everything and deal with it. By the way what is the best number of logical and primary partitions and is there any problems having different operating systems on separate physical drives?
  7. Disk management sees 1 such partition but can't do anything about it. Although when I'm in windows installer it sees 4 of them and also can't do anything.
  8. So what to hell to do with 0mb partitions? They are only visible in windows installation program and any other software like Acronis Director can't find it. Still its pretty annoying to have them. I'm just a person who like to have everything organized. Any way deal with such problem?
  9. Ty. Will simple formatting clear any data from hidden partitions? Because there is stuff that can be located not on local drives also my intention somehow back it up to state it was when I bought it because now i stuck with having multiple 0mb partitions left after previous operating systems.What I'm trying to ask - is there need or a way to somehow fully erase everything so it will be just unallocated space and nothing more?
  10. Hello guys! So I'm planning to upgrade my rig with new Kingston SSDNow V300 240GB but my concern is my old HDD. Its 500gb drive bought about 5 years ago. I also like to reinstal multiple operating systems quite frequently. So now it looks quite messy and with possibility of having multiple hidden viruses I got the idea to somehow restore it to full factory state. So my question is - is there any way to do this procedure? HOpe for answers.
  11. Mostly interested about headset becouse it's the only part of my gear i made myself and keeps braking andy month or two.

  13. The favorite part of this giveaway is Kuhler 1250 because i still run my cpu with 8-years old AM2+ stock cooler
  14. I really like the way LG approach their customers. They make no restrictions whatsoever. You can remove battery, charge it wirelessly from the box, and the mos important thing for me - microSD slot. There is no way i'll be glad of 16 or 32 gig
