I believe that may have been the same laptop I previously had! Very well built and got the simple tasks done with ease, I think mine was 4GB/64GB/Celeron, though the display was cr*p. I basically want something similar with a FHD touchscreen, but it seems as if the smaller size will come at a...

Yes, ideally I want as compact as possible. Had an 11.6" Asus laptop a while back which was brilliant (in terms of size), performance was fine as well, for me anyways. Looking at the article it seems as if an SSD is the way to go. But at the higher price bracket there are going to be more...

https://www.acer.com/ac/en/GB/content/professional-models/laptops/travelmatespinb3 The other point being the significance of emmc vs ssd, how big a difference would there be in day to day performance?

Sorry for the delayed response, never got an email notification. So I've narrowed the laptop search down to the Acer TravelMate Spin B3, which comes with both of these processors as options. I already have a decent spec desktop so just need an inexpensive compact laptop for on the go work with...

I'm looking to buy a Windows laptop and have been looking at a few that suit my use case (basic office work, emails, web browsing etc), the ones I've narrowed down to have very similar CPUs but a significant price difference, can anyone advise if it is worth paying £100 more for the Pentium when...

Doubt it, Intel NUCs have always been overpriced for what they are, I'd expect this to cost as much as the previous ones regardless of the internals.

So if I do not daisy chain, one connector will be unplugged yet the lights will still function? Thanks for the detailed response, bookmarked for future reference! :)

Thank you for the replies, that helps clear things up. I came across the Phanteks RGB Starter Kit which looks like it is compatible with my MB, in the image with the single light strip there are two connectors, one side goes into the MB, where does the other connector plug into?

I just built my first PC over the weekend and am loving the experience so far, feels great seeing that Radeon GPU through the case window! I wanted to add some more RGB effects (alongside the RGB RAM). I am looking at RGB strips to place just below the window, since my MB is Asrock do I need...

Sorry for the late reply, had a health scare, all is good thankfully. That helps clear things up, so I don't need a very high wattage PSU which is good since it'll keep the costs down. I'm going to crack on with my research on which parts to buy, if I need more help I'll post here. (y)

Thanks for the helpful reply! Yes I have sort of jumped into the deep end, didn't realise how much difficult I made it for myself, but I am determined to make this work! I've been looking into PSUs and found that the Pico supports a maximum of 160W, as I previously mentioned the estimated...

Hello I am planning to build my first PC which happens to be a SFF (Lazer3d HT5), I have chosen most of my components (AMD Ryzen 5 3600, GTX 1650 Low Profile, 16GB RAM, 500GB SSD etc) including the Gigabyte B550I AORUS PRO AX Mini-ITX board. I have used online power estimate generators and got a...
