I haven’t bought it yet. I gave him the specs and the exact model number and asked him to see if he can match or beat the price. If he can find the same prebuilt machine for the same price I’ll buy it from him. He said he will try to match it and get back to me tomorrow. But he said it was a...

I wish I could use the cloud for business. It sure would make my life a whole lot easier. But I can’t touch the cloud with anything to do for work. It’s typically too sensitive and I can in no way take a chance on someone else gaining access. I have to keep everything local on my own machine...

Update I did finally find a decent deal this morning. Amazon has this rig for $896 but I found it elsewhere for $699. It’s an HP i5-8400 8gigs Ram (which I’ll upgrade to 16 for $50) 256g SSD MVMe PCIe M.2 HD (which is the fastest HD configuration available, it’s even faster than a standard...

I’m not really finding any deals on prebuilt systems. You might save $50-$100 on a system. But that’s about it I had hoped there would be some killer deals on computers for both Black Friday and cyber Monday. But it seems like the only systems on sale are much older models with CPU’s that are...

Thx Dooms My main hope was that I’d find some amazing deal for either Black Friday or for Cyber Monday. But sadly that just isn’t the case Stores aren’t offering huge savings on prebuilt systems. You might save $100 if you look hard enough. But it won’t be the exact system you were looking...

I was hoping to find some amazing Black Friday/cyber Monday deals but so far I have not had any luck For the specs I’m looking for it pretty much seems to be a pick em type deal on any of the main computer sites. Meaning they are all about the same price for what I’m looking for. You might save...

Actually I only use my phone and tapatalk for this place. I almost never use an actual computer for the internet anymore. It’s all cellphone and iPad to surf the web.

The increase in performance between the 2 CPU’s was minimal. Less than 13% increase in the i7 over the i5. If I was using it for gaming it would be worth the difference. But for what I’ll be using the computer for it isn’t worth the additional cost. Plus adding the video card to the build with...

After doing some research today it looks like I will be adding the video card after all The software I use is designed to take advantage of the Nvidia chipsets on their video cards so it will be beneficial to add one Plus for the type and amount of video editing I will be doing I can easily...

This is true

I just checked the specs on the standard onboard gpu that is built into the new CPU’s vs my old video card that I had in my old machine The standard on board gpu that comes with the new i5/i7 cpu’s is 434% faster than my old video card which was high end at the time I bought it. LOL That...

It’s a bad year to be a NFL owner

Thx for the input [emoji1360]

No I haven’t yet I’ll check em out My main question at this point is if I need to add a video card to the build or not.

The system I found is a i7-8700 with a 500gig SSD HD and 16g of RAM. The only thing it doesn’t have is the 1050gtx video card. I can find them online for $120. Or I can go with a video card that is a step or two down from the 1050 for about $70 and install either one myself. I just don’t...

I’m looking online all over right now. Especially during Black Friday/cyber Monday I priced out the system specs I want and it was in the $800-1k range if I buy it all separately and build it myself I found one online with the specs I want for $700 right now. So I’m still searching cyber...

No one here knows shit about computers? I’m surprised. I figured there would at least be a couple guys here still living in their moms basement who were deeply into computers and up all night on msg boards But then again, most of us on here are of the older vintage and not a 20 sumpthin...

Maybe those weren’t so much as dropped passes as they were “get me the fuck outta here, Gruden is crazy” passes
