im using my college fund for this laptop kek

#

ima ask mom if i can get more ram with it

#

if not im buying ram with my money cause i refuse to live on 16gb if im using windows

upper rain
#

we'll overclock you don't worry

fresh timber
#

if the laptop had more than one nvme slot id do a silly and make the slot power a gpu

#

unironcily the nvme that comes with the laptop is probably faster than the ones in my desktop

#

i only have gen 3

#

ima enjoy that sharp display, 1080p at tht size loks sooo good

craggy shoal
#

I'm surprised that a lot of laptops come with displays that have a lower resolution than 1080p

#

"The average person doesn't need that" idc. It's always some garbage 768p TN display. That's almost like not including the radio in a car

#

Well, when guys start getting old enough...

#

Some HP laptops

#

Like poverty spec HP laptops

#

Even Windows laptops (these typically come with an N100 or N150)

#

This guy doesn't self host

upper rain
#

i had to use a couple chromebooks and a windows with those and i actually almost super slided

#

brain meltingly slow, very frustrating

craggy shoal
#

Yeah I don't use those for client-side machines

#

I use them for server-side though

upper rain
#

how does that work?

nocturne flicker
craggy shoal
#

you just throw server programs onto it

#

I have Debian on mine rn hosting Pi Hole

#

idk what else to host with it though. I upgraded to another Beelink mini PC with some laptop i7 (forgot which one lol)

#

It runs Proxmox and it's pretty much the backbone of my home lab rn

#

Ew touching grass it terrible. I've done it so little it causes rashes derpyBlob

#

Seriously though, I used to get rashes on my feet when I'd wear crocs or sandals and I went through the grass on the yard back in NY. Something on the grasses triggered it. Doesn't happen here though

fresh timber
#

im exited for laptopppp, ima watch so much youtube sitting in bed

worn wave
nocturne flicker
#

I mean, I did live next to a farm derpyBlob

#

Though I didn't really touch the grass in the crocs, so it might've been something in the dew

#

Because you walk in grass with dew and the dew gets in the crocs

Welding pays good mones

Part one: Nvidia
Part two: Nvidia (but AI)
Part three: AI AI AI AI (basically, it's everywhere)
Part four: "Wait AI can code for us"
Part five: programmers: "GUYS WE'RE LOSING OUR JOBS"
Part six: programmers: "It's okay. The manager has to know exactly how to explain what he wants. He can't even tell us what he wants"
Part seven: the manager figures out how to explane to AI exactly what he wants
Part eight: welcome to the 2022-2025 job market, where even IT is losing job security

#

There's your five-year catchup summary

frigid stag
#

Oh I’ve seen what ai can do for coding, it’s a spaghetti code

#

It caused more hassle than it fixes

craggy shoal
#

"Write some code for me" (write spaghetti code) "This doesn't run. Fix it" (fixes it)

frigid stag

Fix one then causes 5 more bugs kekw

fresh timber
#

i google best $600 laptop and its all gaming laptop videos

People still need laptops to be setup. AI can't help with most of that

craggy shoal
# sinful blade I’m going into IT

Definitely try to get your foot in the door as soon as possible. Work for your school's IT department (if possible) and get into some internships (all before graduation). You should be granted a tier 1 support technician role (or similar) soon after graduating if you can get your foot in the door while in school

fresh timber
#

then i get to sit in my office as the ai does support for me, my job is to install it

craggy shoal
#

Latitudes aren't bad either (should be more budget-friendly?)

fresh timber

#

i found this too

#

nvm cpu sucks

craggy shoal
#

"gaming" is a crazy overstatement

fresh timber
#

i had a 4c 11th gen.. never again

#

2p core cpus are weird

fresh timber
craggy shoal
#

look for used Thinkpads too

fresh timber
#

i really want this 11850h with rtx a2000

#

only reason i want to get this is cause a2000, decent DGPU even tho i dont want one, its a nic et ohave

#

but i can gte a fastre CPU

#

just no a20000

#

@craggy shoal 13% faster cpu with a better igpu, or 13% slower worst igpu but decent DGPU

craggy shoal
#

I'd generally just go with whichever one has better eGPU support

fresh timber
#

both support the egpu at tb4

#

the i7 system in my opinion has a nicer chassie

craggy shoal
#

but tbh I'd just use my financial aid on a laptop and not even sell my desktop

HOW

#

i need to figure out how my stuff works even more

upper rain
#

got a bunch of scholarships and applied for every grant under the sun

fresh timber
#

i just need ONE scholarship pays for technology

#

i have two rn kek well three

#

the 3rd one pays $10k a semester

upper rain
#

a lot of the grant money is just bc nobody in my family goes to college and we're all brokies, but some of it is also academic. then i have scholarships that cover my classes, textbooks, and optional student housing

fresh timber
#

i could prob get them to pay for a laptop then ill regret getting a cheap one kek

fresh timber

homie is a one percenter deviousfroge

i really just like this chassie

upper rain

did you at least submit fafsa so you qualify for any aid through ur school?

fresh timber
#

whats the diffrence between the t1200 and rta a2000

upper rain
fresh timber
fresh timber
upper rain
#

no

#

1650 is low end turing

fresh timber
#

1650 with raytracing

upper rain
#

3050 is low end ampere

fresh timber
#

yeah but performance wise

#

no?

upper rain
#

bigger on desktop (sub 1060 vs 2060). on laptop it's similar difference in raw perf, but both are 4GB cards so the 3050m gets kneecapped to a much lower gap than would be expected

#

you also don't get DLSS on tu1200, which is suboptimal for a card of this perf tier

fresh timber
#

disgusting

#

ima go used only for cost savings lel

i wanna minmax how much i spend

upper rain

when i got my federal pell grant thing the indicator number they gave me was literally the highest possible lmfao

There is a lot of stuff under CS yes. But the CS field as a whole is downsizing and reducing the amount people they are hiring. And Computer Science became synonymous with the role of a business degree. Don't know what to do? Just do business or CS and you'll surely get something

fresh timber

if i drop 30k on a hour

fresh timber

would a bank let a 19yo buy a house

any news on wegg server tag

lone mango

If true then I see why they are making a new socket

lone mango

I guess things like games will use the p cores and renders will use all of the cores

cinebench cores

And the LP-E will be used for background stuff?

lone mango
#

Yeah I have 32 cinebench cores

nocturne flicker
#

Weren't E cores supposed to be low power?

lone mango
#

Yeah but they ironically used a lot with earlier iterations

#

I think now they are actually low power relative to p cores

#

But cramming a bunch of e cores is cheap performance

nocturne flicker
#

Need low power low power cores now, going to have low power low power low power cores in a couple gens

Hello all. Where would I post to ask for some advice for a prebuilt? I'm trying to get something for my GF who plays WoW, she's rocking an old R2 Alienware from 2012...I think it's time to upgrade, a late bday present.

She's mentioned she wants a curved wide monitor too. Don't know where to start but found some prebuilds that are within my budget. Help would be great!

proud jackal
#

im in danger.

What’s your budget and when do you plan to buy?

Peripherals I'm not too worried about. I'll look into the monitor maybe later. She has a pretty nice one right now. And keyboard, mouse. I'm the audio guy so she's hooked up with studio monitors.

@proud jackal any you would recommend? I've looked at a few. But I have no idea what to look for what's good or not. Computer illiterate for a lack of a term

@hexed marsh don’t go for a b580 on an expensive system. It’s a middle grade gpu. It’s just new.

Man prices are so whack you can’t find anything what it’s supposed to be priced at

hexed marsh

And yeah I know it’s been like that but damn man it’s everything now lol

acoustic palm
#

whats your budget

hexed marsh
sinful blade
#

A good thing to note:
take as much

#

As you can refurbished*

#

A reputable company with refurbished goods is a solid choice

#

For the gpu of your build, I’d highly suggest looking into Jawa.gg and seeing if they ship to you.

hexed marsh
acoustic palm
sinful blade
sinful blade
#

Ignore those.

#

Use the actual ā€œofficial Jawa storeā€. Not many independent gpu sellers.

acoustic palm
#

just dont buy from sketchy ones

sinful blade
#

For the price of a 9070

acoustic palm
sinful blade
#

Hm

acoustic palm
#

if its not too bad itll fit budget

sinful blade
#

There’s a 3080 12gb for $430

acoustic palm

the gre should fit his budget

hexed marsh

Was just looking Jawa doesn't currently ship to Canada
