@Kratzos and @TheRandomness

 

You guys posted nice suggestions, but consider he might not have monitor and other peripherals. TheRandomness suggestion would make more sense. Also wrong forum :)

What the fuck do you think a tech forum full of gamers and other tech geeks will say?

 

Of course go out with those filthy creatures you call "friends" and spend all that $1000 in one night!

Seriously though, don't spend ur money on friends, spend it on a new computer, or wait for polaris and save up.

hello!

is it me you're looking for?

ᴾC SᴾeCS ᴰoWᴺ ᴮEᴸoW

Spoiler

Desktop: X99-PC

CPU: i7 5820k

Mobo: X99 Deluxe

Cooler: Dark Rock Pro 3

RAM: 32GB DDR4
GPU: GTX 1080

Storage: 1TB 850 Evo, 1TB HDD, bunch of external hard drives
PSU: EVGA G2 750w

Peripherals: Logitech G502, Ducky One 711

Audio: Xonar U7, O2 amplifier (RIP), HD6XX

Monitors: 4k 24" Dell monitor, 1080p 24" Asus monitor

 

Laptop:

-Overkill Dell XPS

Fully maxed out early 2017 Dell XPS 15, GTX 1050 4GB, 7700HQ, 1TB nvme SSD, 32GB RAM, 4k display. 97Whr battery :x 
Dell was having a $600 off sale for the fully specced out model, so I decided to get it :P

 

-Crapbook

Fully specced out early 2013 Macbook "pro" with gt 650m and constant 105c temperature on the CPU (GPU is 80-90C) when doing anything intensive...

A 2013 laptop with a regular sized battery still has better battery life than a 2017 laptop with a massive battery! I think this is a testament to apple's ability at making laptops, or maybe how little CPU technology has improved even 4+ years later (at least, until the recent introduction of 15W 4 core CPUs). Anyway, I'm never going to get a 35W CPU laptop again unless battery technology becomes ~5x better than as it is in 2018.

Apple knows how to make proper consumer-grade laptops (they don't know how to make pro laptops though). I guess this mostly software power efficiency related, but getting a mac makes perfect sense if you want a portable/powerful laptop that can do anything you want it to with great battery life.

Really nice suggestion ! Once you're older and start to work, it gets harder to save money for that.

 

Cinema and cafe would feel like a waste to me. That's the kind of things you do with day to day cash, not with savings. If you chose the PC, keep some cash for games to get you started. Also, coming from a PS4, just don't pay full price for games, get them on sale. I always wait for games to be at 50%...
