PC/Gadget Thread



Get your gaming battle stations out because this is yet another rating thread. Here I'll put your shitty laptops and toaster boxes side by side judge how potato they are. Doesn't matter if it's a raspberry pi, a e-book, or a watch. So long as it's digital and it can run something it counts!

Don't be over confident tho. You can wrap RGB around your amazon kindle all you want, but if it can't run crysis expect your points to suffer.


What I require:

  1. A good picture of your scrap metal
  2. Specs or something that allows me to look it up
  3. Any mods/overclocking/etc?
There might be multiple categories depending on what will be submitted. If you happen to somehow own a supercomputer, play pong on it to win this thread.

Alright so my gaming laptop is running an rtx 2060 max q but the fucking thing somehow stoped maxing out the gpu and cpu. Like the usage never goes over 30 percent which is terrible when you’re gaming

A Samsung laptop boasting an i5-3210M and 4 GB ram. Given the laptop, I believe it contains just the intel HD 4000 graphics card the cpu has. The i5-3210M was released back 2012, around the time when windows 7 came out. This stuff is old and specs were borderline poor even for the time. Feels like a standard $500 laptop, equipped to float at the bottom of the barrel. just enough to do the basics. Running chrome on it must be hell however you go about it. At least you didn't get an Intel Atom.

The 16 GB ram, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060, the 1 TB SSD, and an AMD Ryzen 9. Oh did I mention it boasts a 120 Hz display? You got a pretty decent puppy here. It is well equipped and suitable for most stuff you through at it. From what I can gather its battery life isn't bad either. It comes around at about $1500, which is just what you'd expect for top of the line gear.

The i3-3240 came out around the same time as the i5-3210M Ashton has. Which tells me this is a pretty old piece of wonder too. And a wonder it is, because it is an all-in-one! I remember those were quite popular back in the early 10's, but those never really appealed to me. Despite being touch screen, I never saw myself using the screen given the display is always oriented vertically. And judging by the setup, I'd say that is pretty accurate even with you. The 6 Gb ram was decent for its time, but rather lacking these days. Don't have enough info for GPU, but I know the i3 has an Intel HD 2500, and that's even worse than the HD 4000. Bad for gaming, a bit sluggish for everything else.

The 7th gen i5 came out not that long ago. At this time CPU is less an indicator of performance while other factors are. The machine boasts a staggering 32 GB, plenty for all the chrome tabs you may need. The storage is a ~500 GB samsung SSD, a pretty decent choice, with extra drives there for back up and expanded storage. The GTX 1660 is a pretty good gfx card, although its age is starting to show.

The AMD Ryzen 5 was also released not long ago. The Vega 8 GFX card is pretty good enough to play most things on low settings. The 8 GB ram is kinda lacking but decent if you budget your resources. I looked up the laptop and it seems it's running on a 1 Tb HDD. I'd expect loading times to quit slow if that's the case. As for its everything else, it's nothing too remarkable.

I easily could have the worst setup of OT. I genuinely hate it, hate it so much it does not deserve a photo taken by me.

However the model is the same model as this:

On the bright side, I found this design interesting.

Might look so, but the build quality is garbage too, the screen lid, the keyboard and the handle break real fast.

Can you play osu with it?

Hardly, CTB is hardly playable, the other three modes are "fine" as long as you use a lightweight skin.

Latency is high though. And you can't open anything else than osu! if you don't want it to go hella slow.
