    Get the bundle. It's way more worth it in my opinion. I have a Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro with 6GB of RAM, it's plenty fine for COD. Don't know about the other game though. But this is definitely quite a good deal.

    That's a very wrong conclusion there. That's not how Ram works.
     
    You can't run out of memory under Android. Even if you had 3gb Ram, you could NOT run out. It will NEVER be "full" with 0 mb free.
    As soon a certain threshold is hit, Android closes an older Application, so you can run your current one.
    If you open that closed App again, it will reload, instead "beeing already loaded, ready go go".
     
    Checking free Ram on Android for this question is like opening your Fridge over and over again, just to check if the light really goes off if you close the door. That's simply not how Ram works, not in the slightest.
     
    I have a 12gb Ram phone, and i have 8,4gb Ram "in usage". Not playing any Game right now, it's justt sitting on the Desk.
    If i had 8gb Ram (like my Last one), Ram usage wouldn't go past like 7,2 gb or something like that, and older stuff will be kicked out.
    --> If more Ram is there, more Ram will be used. That doesn't mean, that this used Ram is "needed". But it's there, so it makes just sense to use it to cache some stuff. Unused Ram = useless Ram.
     
     
    8gb Ram instead of 6 simply lets you have more Apps open at the same Time without reloading.0
    If you have 8gb Ram instead of 6, the OS and other App will simply use more. Because there is more.
     
    Do you absolutely HATE whenever an App reloads when you open it again? Then you might want more Ram.
    You don't care that half a second reload, as long the App runs, you want to use? You can stick to 6gb Ram. there is no App, that won't work. Older Apps will just be closed earlier.
     
    Not visual enough? Imagine your Desk. Now imagine a larger Desk, where you can put more stuff on it at the same time, before you have to put older stuff back into your Drawer.
     
    Or let me try this way: On 8gb Ram, you could probably switch from Black Desert Mobile to CoD, and back again. And both Games will still be fully loaded, ready to go. With 6gb Ram, the older Game COULD get kicked out, and if you switch back, it will have to reload again. Depending on your other Apps, and how much Ram those Games actually use.
     
    That deal with the Scooter is quite good, since that thing costs like 300+  alone?
    So yea, get the Bundle if you use the scooter. Or simply sell the scooter for 200-250.
    If you don't care for the scooter, and don't want to waste your Time with selling, get the 8gb Version.

    I have a 6gb Note 8 pro, never ran out of memory.
    2gb free memory on idle, 500-1000mb when gaming, which is still alot.
    I say get the scooter bundle, the scooter alone cost $300.

    The Multi-display/mixed-GPU acceleration option is no longer accessible, Nvidia removed the option. Hence not applicable

    ERP is a power saving feature.
    When you have it activated it cuts all power to almost everything in the PC when it is off.
    Having it off means your PC still receives power when the computer is off.

    Using either setting is your choice. Do you want to save power? Then have ERP on.
    Do you want USB ports activated when your computer is off? Then have ERP off.

    Now does the double power cycle harm your computer?
    No. No it causes no harm. This is very typical on Asus motherboards, and can happen on others.
    8/10 it's optimising memory training. Nothing to worry about.

    Do you mean these?

     
    Those are the EPS connector,  a 4 pin EPS and 8 pin/4+4 pin EPS connector.
    The 8 pin EPS already does 384W of power, so the additional 4 pin is not needed (unless you do some LN2 overclocking). Of course it doesn't hurt to add the other (if available), but not at all needed.

    16GB is fine - you can always add more later. Also, aim for 3600MHz CL16

    I'm leaning toward the first one due to battery life, but it's honestly hard to say because the feature sets are relatively interchangeable.  One question that will help me and others: what kind of phone are you using?

    That's only really true if you have a Samsung phone (and preferably a newer one at that).  If you don't, avoid the Galaxy Buds at all costs.  They're laggy and limited on other phones.

    People with a job won't have the time to find drivers and MacOS installation, let alone fixing drivers for hackintosh
    For photo editing only, you wouldn't really need discrete GPU. All you need is a good CPU, 16GB ram, some SSD and a good display
    I'd get the 13 inch with a core i5, 16GB of ram and 512GB SSD, this should set you back about 2200 euro. The 13 is easier to carry than the 15, not thermal throttle as much as the 15, a bit longer battery life and quad-core should be fine to handle RAWs.  
     
    If you have spare change, spend it on a Thunderbolt 3 SSD, an inexpensive dongle, those will help with your workflow

    What kind of photo editing are we talking about? Lightroom? Photoshop? 
     
    If the editing is moderately intense, a base model 15" with whatever storage capacity she wants will work great.

    I feel you could get better for a much lesser price than you would pay for a MacBook pro. The butterfly switches will get you if you plan on using this for more than a year. I recommend maybe a Razer blade pro 15" rtx 2070 with 4k screen or if you need less you power go for the gtx 1070 4K model. If she really just needs not too much xpu power she should get the Razer blade stealth 4k model and serial slim epgu. Or go for the almighty dell XPS 15. If course is what she needs then a MacBook pro will get you frustrated with how it throttles

    ^^^ mid-2015s are the best built too IMO, and they have better keyboards, still an excellent trackpad, amazing screen, actual ports vs #donglelife, have temp issues as all Macs do, but not as bad as the newest ones. I used to work on a 2015 15", amazing machine, my ex-boss still uses it for video/photo editing and such.

    I reccomend perhaps getting an older one, perhaps a mid 2015 i7 16gb ram macbook with an ssd (iirc they had either 256 or 500gb) it should be plenty. 

    They are cheaper but very much still worth their money.

    The real hold up you have ATM is the ram, and lack of an SSD.
     
    More Ram and a SSD for the raw cache is gonna bring you a long way in Lightroom
     
    You could probably step down on the cpu

    True, still not going to help much in anything that doesn't use all the cores. An i5 or quad core i7 with less heat output and a much lower price is still much better for this use case.

    The throttling is for stress tests and video rendering. I doubt it would throttle photo editing. The 15” comes with a six core cpu and a gpu.

    My 2014 MacBook Pro 15” is still running great. I would recommend going with Apple since they use really good screens in their laptops. They have really good contrast, brightness, and color accuracy.
