don't listen to me on anything
listen to your heart
I get you though, a lot of /g/ is based on the idea that costing less makes something better
😩
Thinkpads, etc
/g/ takes good principles to the extreme. like any application with a GUI is "bloat" because it uses 50MB of RAM.
Thinkpads cost less?
There is a _lot_ of compensating poorfags
but we are in /csg/ so I can see why I would be the minority
Refurbished thinkpads that hit the "bang for buck" ratio, yes
Pease stay in your rabbit hole
they're super popular business laptops that get offloaded in bulk, and they usually buy older models
I am a poorfag and I like to pinch pennies. but that's not to say I don't like to fantasize about Pixel phones and 1080Ti desktops.
I just don't understand what the difference really is at that point
tbh
maybe like, VR
what do you mean?
there's not a lot on the end user level that really differentiates at that point anymore
depends on what you're doing I guess
the X220 and T420 are the best laptops if you know your way around a screwdriver and don't have much money
or even the X1C
i have enough money
i'll be doing a desktop pc thanks
(laptops are still PCs)
nice ninja edit
wow discord thanks for slow edits
so rich i have a top tier desktop now
from 2012
Desktop PC's truly are a dated idea tho imo
eh, they still have their place for poorfags.
>dated idea >desktops
they have benefits of performance that can't be beat tho
just stick a new processor in it lol
there are things I can do on my desktop that I just can't do on any other device, like watching movies in 4K.
>Desktops are dated t. man who has never rendered anything in his life
lemme uhhhhh just spend $3000 on a gaming laptop that gets outdated in 1 year
lmao no
cloud rendering exists at literally half a dollar per hour these days
a $3000 gaming laptop will give you top tier gaming performance for at least 5 years assuming you don't break it
(btw I sell laptops for a living)
