UK Uni student here I've had a look online as I am looking to get a TV or projector for my room I'm going to most likely be doing a lot of moving in the next 2 years or so as I finish uni and can't seem to find a decent projector for anything under £500 which makes me just want to buy a good TV instead any ideas or recommendations for both obviously as space is a big concern for a TV so wouldn't want anything massive hence why I was looking at a projector. my desk is fairly large currently and I have a 27" monitor on there but there is a lot more space to use. Budget max £600/700

Oh no sorry so i need a laptop for uni for lectures maybe some video rendering etc and i have seen a lot of reviews online about the M1 including linuses on the laptop ranking he did today. But i also want a desktop PC which i can play games at 1080 maybe some light 1440p

So something more like this? https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/jhqG9N

Quick sidenote i was looking at either going through apples cleareance site where you can pick one up base model for £849 or amazon when i can pick a used one for £800

Budget (including currency): £2000 Country: UK Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Well ideally i want a PC for my uni room then a mac M1 air for my uni work. Other details This is the list i was thinking of using: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/PWhhbh Main reason im swapping is because i already have a lot of the stuff for a desktop mouse keyboard monitor etc and I prefer gaming on a Desktop rather than a laptop but at the same time i had a mac air when they came out last year and really liked it just want to see other peoples opinions of this build and any improvements etc.

And this board would need a BIOS update. ASRock B450M PRO4 Micro ATX

I've heard the 5700XT has a lot of driver issues?

iI have built this 4K gaming build, it is just under £1000 not including shipping any recomendations or additons to the build? https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/XyDGHB

Personally i really dont like the cool master case would mine still fit with that motherboard?

Because of my constant travelling between parents i need to have a small PC that can run decent ish games with a portable monitor here is what i have got im using vega 11 graphics but would like to upgrade in the future my only question is will the motherboard support the CPU as i ideally need a wireless connection im using this motherboard any suggestions?

If using a portable monitor surly i would be better off having a motherboard with a built in USB -C port

Erm i littrally have no room for a desk so i would have to mount a TV to my wall and play with a keyboard on my lap? Also because the room is so small condensation is a problem which might damage the pc? i dont know.

I have to have a laptop as my room is too small to have a desktop otherwise yes i would totally buy a pc.

Any good ideas for a used laptop my budget is arround £500 i wouldnt mind spending more or less but would like to run games such as GTA 5 and Ark. Im not really interested in VR
