I mostly used my phone to watch videos, movies, or shows, so a decent screen is a must. I also frequently play games on my phone, so performance is also important. I live in SEA, and my budget can't stray too far from $500 USD. All other features such as headphone jack is a nice to have, but optional. Thank you.

The white one is my ssd bought at the exact same time as the black one which is my twin's they're the exactly same model. Should I change mine it says "good" but how much do I trust that it has gone down from 24 to 23 in about 2 weeks this drive is 6 years old. Or is this just a bug on my drive displaying lower wear than what it really is considering my brother has more TBW and less wear. If I were to change there are currently 2 well priced options (same price) in my region which are the 2TB Lexar NM790 or 2TB Mushkin Vortex Redline does anyone have long term experience with any of these because I've heard that the IG5236 in the Vortex Redline has had some problems dying are those problems resolved? Is DRAM-cache really necessary if I game 99% of the time?

I was going to get a pc build by Micro Center because I do not trust myself to build a system, and it was going to be around $2200-2300. But, one of the micro center PowerSpec pcs at basically the same config (only difference is ram speed) is on sale for $1599.99. Its been on sale for a while, and I've been burned from "good deals" in the past. I can seem to find anything wrong with it, but I just want a second option from someone who knows more about specific parts than me. Unfortunately there isn't too much info to go off of because most of the parts aren't list specifically. Parts on the listing: Intel Core i7 13th Gen 13700KF 3.4GHz Processor NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 12GB GDDR6X G.Skill 32GB DDR5-5600 RAM 2TB Solid State Drive Microsoft Windows 11 Pro 10/100/1000 Network 2.5GbE LAN WiFi 6E 802.11ax Bluetooth 5.1 AIO Liquid ML 240L RGB Cooler I'm pretty sure the AIO is a CoolerMaster brand, and I've heard that's a really cheap AIO, and that 240mm AIOs are not enough for the 13700kf Really, I just to know whether or not this a deal I should take. https://www.microcenter.com/product/665134/G443_Gaming_PC;_Intel_Core_i7_13th_Gen_13700KF_34GHz_Processor;_NVIDIA_GeForce_RTX_4070_12GB_GDDR6X;_GSkill_32GB_DDR5-5600_RAM;_2TB_Solid_State_Drive; The case is ugly but for $700 less...

Hi, I'm looking for headphones that are a set of 2 pieces that each has a ear-hook and no hard band to connect them (like those in the picture). However, I'd like it to survive for more than 10 days, so a cheap 3$ set is out of the question. It's for a normie friend that like this kind of thing, but I just care too much for said friend to buy garbage. So in essence, I need to respectable version of these: Any ideas? (thanks)

Hello, I want to start with the fact that I planned to buy Framework, but even after 2 years of waiting it still isn't available in my country. I'd love something similar to it, but they are one of a kind company and the only other project I heard of was from Dell I reckon and that was only concept. At least if it can have "open" BIOS. Last laptop I had was 1300€ HP and it had the most basic looking BIOS. I couldn't do anything, not even disconnect battery through it. Country: Czech Republic (Europe) Budget: 1260 - 1900 € (the less the better) Open to refurbs/used? Yes Size: Any Weight: Any (the less the better) Purpose: College (IT - programming, some 3D work, photo editing) OS: Windows / Linux (dual-boot capable, I heard some laptops aren't playing nicely) Battery life: at least 6 (I am fine with having a powerbank -> laptop needs to be USB-C charging capable, even if not full speed) SPECIAL REQUIRMENT: Needs to be resellable in a 6-12 months as I have hope Framework will come out. I get this might be stupid request, but I bet that some brands or models are not as desired on used market. Hence the price range being so wide (higher retail price = better resell price?) Thanks!

Hello everyone! Longtime lurker, first time poster. I am hoping for some recommendations for a good keyboard and mouse combo belkow 100€. Must be wireless and utilize only one dongle. I am looking for long battery life and good quality. It's puprose is not for gaming, but for office work - it will be connected to a work laptop and has to travel between work and home with me. So far I've used Legotech's M185 & K270 combo. I was not too happy with it (mouse is too small) but they were for free. Now they've given up the ghost and I need a replacement to use for a couple of years. Any tips or hints?

So, as there is a shortage of GPU's in my city, and everywhere else, I would like to know, what motherboard would be the best option to buy for Ryzen 5 3600 CPU, that (as far as I searched the web) has a graphics capability, and a possibility of NOT needing a GPU to show something on screen. Which do you recommend? I found "GIGABYTE B450 AORUS ELITE", which has an integrated graphics chipset, and if this won't work, then what motherboard under (approximately) $120 USD. (For gaming and Cinema4D, for a bit more clarity.) Thank you :D

hey all , first post here , I want some advice on what should I get for my first ever rig . today in the market in my region , I am getting a legion 5 laptop (5800h and rtx 3060 ) which is similarly priced to a cpu ( 5600x and rtx 3060). what should I go with ?? points to note : desktop gpu is ofc more powerful although legion has full tdp gpu for a 3060 mobile , while laptop has better cpu I think (idk how close) also the laptop has a screen too 165hz 99%sRGB which is not taken into account in the desktop this would be more money on top of that for a monitor, laptop also has more storage 2tb ssd vs 512gbssd+1tbhdd Although there is a better upgrade path for desktop I'm so confused AF , pls help Thanks.

Allow me to preface this post with my current build. CPU (Ryzen 5 3600) CPU Fan (Stock) Motherboard (MSI Performance Gaming Micro-ATX Motherboard (B450M Gaming Plus) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F7WQDZJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 RAM ((2x16) Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3600MHz C18) Storage ((2x500Gb) Samsung SATA III 860 Pro) GPU (Nvidia GTX1060 6Gb) Case (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PDDMN6S/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)) Monitor Acer XF250Q (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G3GRFSZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) I am looking at upgrading my motherboard from this B450M to a one with more bells and wistles. Specifics of what I am looking for is one with preferably Wifi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0 and greater. I have a VR headset that desperately needs a bluetooth connection for my Sony XM4's to take the cordless VR experience up to the max. My build, as you can see, is going on three years old. Likewise, it wasn't anything crazy...rather middle of the pack actually. I have been out of the tech news stream for a bit now, so I am looking for motherboard recommendations. I don't want to simply search google for "bluetooth 5.2 and Wifi 6 AMD motherboards" and buy the first one that meets the criteria not knowing if it's actually terrible or great. I would prefer I be led to the slaughter by you, the more tech savy person.

Hi everyone, I'm looking to buy a laptop for under £450 (GBP). I dont need anything fancy, just to be able to handle basic browsing, watching videos, using Office 365 (word, excel, etc). What kind of spec should I be looking for? i5 1135G7 keeps popping up, that a good bet? Any recommendations on spec or products is super appreciated - Thanks!

Hi all Currently running the below system. I'm experiencing random shutdowns under high load / graphics card crashes on this system when gaming. The PSU may be borked / unable to handle the FTW3 3080 load (seemed to handle the XC3 3080 I had before fine). This has been annoying but not annoying enough for me to drop many additional cash on my gaming PC. Then the PSU in my server / HTPC died and I decided that I would migrate my HX-1000 to that system - hence I need a replacement for my primary PC. As you can see from my current system list at the bottom of the post, the PSU is more than 10 years old so it's probably time. Not listed below are: 2 x spinning rust (both 5400rmp); 1 x SATA SSD, 1 x NVME SSD; and 5 case fans: (2 supplied with the H115i, an Arctic P14 and two Silverstone AP181). Other Information Location: I am in Australia. Budget: I don't have a maximum on budget but would rather not go overkill. Thinking around the $300 AUD range. Form Factor / Current Case: ATX. Carbide 540. PSU size isn't an issue in the case, it lives in a chamber behind the motherboard. Upgrading?: I will be looking to replace the platform (8600K) in the future but not urgently. I feel PSUs are pretty standard and if anything general consumer / gaming platforms are only getting more efficient / less power hungry. Questions What PSU would you recommend I replace the HX-1000 with? Questions other than what to buy: The FTW3 3080 takes 3 x 8 pin. I had a browse on PcPartsPicker and noticed many PSUs only offer 6+2 connections. I understand that this won't be an issue however for the case of aesthetics, are there any PSUs that provide that many 8 pin PCI-E power cables? The HX-1000 has 4; on the topic of aesthetics, I currently have home made sleeved cables from back in the MDPC days. Not really looking to do that again (don't have as much free time now as I did then). Are there any particular manufactures that have models with already sleeved cables or sell reasonably priced kits, or is CableMod the best out of the box solution? Current System Part Purchase date Corsair HX-1000 30/4/2010 i5 8600K 27/10/18 ROG Strix Z370-G 27/10/18 Corsair 16GB 27/10/18 Corsair 32GB 28/11/19 Dell 30 3008WFP 8/9/09 Acer Predator XB241H 4/11/16 Dell S2721DGF 23/4/21 eVGA FTW3 3080 23/4/21 Corsair H115i Capellix 19/5/21 Cheers!

Recommendations: Pre Built, Good Customer Service/Warranty, Budget = 3.5K USD in the US vendor? This is a rig I want for gaming most of all, secondary tasks would be Music Production with Reaper and an Interface, and Video Editing (family videos) with Adobe Premiere. Gamin is again primary function. I have been doing research for quite a while but there are so many out there now, not sure who to trust in terms of reliability (I am tired of Dell sending me an email every week reminding me that my warranty is about to expire). Which are the top three most reputable companies you have had a good experience with? Since there are so many experts here, thought this would be the best place to get advice, I appreciate your time in advance guys.

So unfortunately my monitor recently broke. I was using a 27" BenQ 1080p 144Hz that I'd our chased about 7 years ago now. I actually don't play competitive anymore so 144Hz isn't exactly really a requirement. I would like to upgrade to something 4k HDR if possible but want to keep it relatively cheap and I'll be using the monitor for work as well as an extra screen with my laptop. Any help is greatly appreciated.

My Galaxy S8 is getting extremely slow (and the battery is dying again, I've had to replace it once already) so I want to start looking for a new one before it's unusable. I'm hoping for some suggestions. Must: 1. Be compatible with Sprint/Tmobile (I think that's a given but I don't know enough about networks) 2. The ability to open the back to replace the battery (it can be difficult, I have an ifixit toolkit) 3. A lot of RAM. 4. Expandable storage 5. Android 6. Durability Would like to have: 1. Extra long battery life 2. USB-C charging 3. The ability to cool itself (batteries are constantly overheating on me) 4. Headphone jack 5. 5g network 6. Under $500 USD in cash Fyi these aren't in order of priority. I don't care about visual fidelity, camera quality, or external speaker quality, so if any of those are horrible it's okay
