    Question Should I replace or upgrade my laptop?

    That CPU and RAM should be okay for what your partner is doing. A slow HDD is a very common cause of a slow comnputer so I'd recommend getting an SSD.

    Question IBM ThinkPad T60 versus T60p - Gaming performance

    Because they are the best buisness laptops ever made. Have you not heard of the old Thinkpads? They are awesome. I don't like the new laptops with thier crappy keyboards, 16:9 displays and poor build quiality. A nice tall 4:3 15 inch screen is much nicer. These old ThinkPads are built like...

    [SOLVED] Laptop selection

    As the user above said, you will find it very difficult to find a cheap laptop with dedicated graphics. You might be better off just getting a lightweight desktop pc or looking on eBay for a cheap Alienware laptop.

    Question Does a resolution of 1400x1050 look too small on a 15 inch laptop?

    I know that but I once used 125% scaling on a 15 inch 1680x1050 laptop and text in Google Chrome looked blurry. So I would prefer to avoid having to use scaling if possible,

    So I have a custom-built PC and it has an aftermarket cooler. Problem is it makes this annoying whining noise like constantly. It isn't very loud but when your sat in front of it for ages it really starts to bug me. Even when doing light tasks such as browsing or typing documents etc I can hear...

    Hi. So long story short, I destroyed my desktop PC by downloading a piece of software to update drivers and somehow accidentally downloaded a piece of malicious Japanese software in the process. The PC is still at my brothers house pending repair. Anyway, seeing as it is very unlikely that my...
