    I reckon Antarctica or far north Canada would be better, especially given the political tension surrounding Russia at the moment.

    This seems more like an invasion of privacy and a slight breach of morality than anything.  Students that want to learn will make a genuine attempt to do so and it also depends on the teacher if this is true or not. 
    Back in my year 10 maths class, we had a teacher that knew his math, but wasn't ready to teach our class (half our class was fairly disruptive), so we barely learnt anything. With the same class in year 11, we had a much better teacher and it showed- results went up across the board.  
    I really hope Intel collaborates with actual classrooms and teachers rather than with their own executives who haven't been in the education system for several decades.

    Thank you! I will take that into consideration seeing as how I am relatively new to how fast different M.2 drives are.

    So, i decided to go without the case, a ryzen 5 3600 and a rtx 2080ti i found brand new for 300USD. But do you have any tips on preventing my motherboard sliding on the box? and does it matter if i go with a non modular psu

    machin3gir1 got a reaction from Aicc in Need help figuring out what pc to build on low budget.   
    Definitely agree. As much as I like AMD, Intel lowered their prices and they're actually a compelling buy, seeing if you can find one. Better yet, maybe look on the used market, there's some great deals if you know where to look.
     
    Also I recommend going cheaper on the power supply unless you really want a quiet one, going for a cheaper cpu, maybe the 3200G or 10100F and switching the GT 710 out for a 1650 super or 1050ti. Either of those cards will be much, much better than a 710 in terms of gaming and video creation

    If you want, I've attached a parts list to this message to give you an idea. Exchange rate makes this roughly 535 Euro but you could (and should) definitely buy items that are a better value in Latvia. Definitely stick to either a 9100F, 10100F or 3200G and either a 1650 (super if its available), 5500XT or 1050ti. Using those you should get a pretty decent gaming experience and it should be fairly responsive in video creation, so long as it's not in 4K.

    Depends on what is your graphics card. But if planning to overclock CPU then 430W PSU (even high quality) might be not enough.

    Try lowering the resolution of your laptop's screen. The quality will be hurt but you may get more FPS.
    Additionally, if you prop your laptop up with something and allow the cooling to breathe a bit better, then you may see better or more consistent performacne (don't quote me on this)

    yeah.... never trust userbenchmark
     
    thats pretty bad pricing for a 5700xt, if its in good condition then go with it. unless a rtx 2060 cost similar.

    Try undervolting it if you can, it can bring down temps and also sometimes improve performance.
