it fits my needs

what chromebook lets me run adobe suite and pc games

none

because that's not what it's made for

we aren't talking about your use case though

so your use is the only use then

we're talking about this girl who's in college or whatever

and im a retard for not having ***your*** use in mind

THIS WHOLE DISCUSSION SPROUTED FROM A GIRL WHO'S GOING TO COLLEGE

it's not my use case I'm worried about

look

just admit you were wrong

in the average college workload, 90% of students don't need their laptop to do complex computational work on the go

this is what we are talking about

you're playing stupid

i wouldnt even call adobe complex computational work

it's processor intensive

i used to bring my laptop to class because i preferred using windows to the shitty macs in class

okay?

what is her study tho?

no idea

i mean she could be taking design classes like i was and would benefit from having a windows laptop

either way you can find a refurb surface for only a few hudred more than a chromebook

around 500~

something fucky is going on with my GPU

I think it's directly related to Precision XOC

whenever it's open, or in my background tasks, my desktop is a slideshow

whenever I try to play a game, it's a slideshow.

uninstalled XOC, gonna restart, we'll see what happens after that

precision x is garbage

i uninstalled it because it would fuck up video playback for me

get afterburner even tho you cant change evga lights on it

Yo @Polygon it isn't worth wasting your time with that guy. He's a fucking brainlet that lives in his own little fallacy.

u rite

It seems like it's still doing it, intermittently.

ah wait, it's good now

we'll see

The only thing he said right is that Afterburner>Precision X. I've used Afterburner for like 2 years, then went to precision X for 2 years. I use afterburner again now and it's set up waayyy better.

I legitimately believe that it's due to the change in compression algorithm

The video thing? I don't think they changed the codec, and the algorithm really wouldn't do much with that lol. Even RAW video and highly compressed mkv/mp4 from my experience doesn't cause noticeable stress on GPU.

Maybe just
