I'd also be open to suggestion if anyone has any. Trying to stay around $800 or less

I've done a bit of reviewing already and have an idea, but still torn. I'm wondering the thoughts of someone who might know more than I beyond just the basic specs and maybe more what I may have a better experience with between the two architectures

I'm looking to do some mobile graphic design work. I'm not too concerned about the weight so I've been looking at Gaming Laptops around $800 budget. I've landed on two that I'm wondering which might be the better choice. The Acer is a certified reman at around $700 and the Dell will be about...

Hey guys, I'm looking to pick up a laptop or small compact computer for a project where mobility would be important (think trade shows/events..etc). The purpose is a computer for graphic related application like adobe creative cloud apps, photoshop, premiere, illustrator, after effects...etc...

Yeah theres a micro usb port on it that I connect for data transfer and power. It does have a separate power input on the board that just have a power/ground wire coming off it so i'd have to add a usb cable to it, but I didnt want to have another port/cable separate for power, but perhaps that...

I mean far as power we're prob talking 1 volt, its one of those greeting card melody modules. The USB cable that comes with it does work to connect it to the computer for transfer a mp3 to the module. After a little more testing I noticed something very weird. The USB cable with it, will work to...

The charger CABLE i'm using is a DJI cable that works with my device im testing on my computer (connects as external drive to drop mp3 files on it). But i've also tested other cables with the same result and all cables work with Duracell adapter so i'm concluing is that it has something to do...

You think theres anyway to fix it by messing with the USB slot pins or anything? Trying to find a good source for one of these usb cig lighter adapters cheaper to include with my project for sales, but everything i've gotten so far from AliExpress is the same story with this works with the tip...

[Background] So i'm looking for a remedy to an odd issue I'm having with a USB port car charger and was hoping someone could shed some light. I have a brand name cigar lighter adapter I use to activate a small melody box when the car is turned on which works fine. I ordered a few cheap adapters...

I FOUND A BAND AID REMEDY. So while working on this issue I came across x2 sticks of 4gb ram that I forgot I had with two open spots so I decided to toss em in with my other two sticks of 8gb (double checked the 4 - 8 - 4 - 8 configuration would be ok and it was. When powering on i got a "RAM...

So I unplugged both LG monitors completely for an older 1080p Acer monitor using HDMI cable from the internal card this time. Same result. Still black until the Windows log in screen shows up. If I press F2 when the computer starts then it just stays black. I assume cuz perhaps im in the BIOS, i...

The problem is I dont thnk my monitors are getting the signal at boot up till windows starts. When I hit the F key to get in to the bios the monitors get stuck on being blank, which makes me assume that the computer did go in to the bios but I can't see anything

So heres the jist. I been using a Dell XPS desktop for awhile with this issue because I never needed to get in to the BIOS. Now I do cause I wanted to adjust boot disk order. Windows boots up fine every time. I'm running dual LG 4k monitors via display port with a EVEA GeForce GTX 1080 card. My...

I doubt I can sell it for anything it'd really be worth selling it for. I haven't kept up too much on what the new processors and speeds are these days because I dont wana feel the need to keep up with it (car modding projects takes most of my paychecks) so i'm just trying to make what I got a...

Hey guys I'm building up this Inspiron 530 my bro gave me for free to finally replace my hurting Dimensions 8400 and I had quick question about upgrading the GPU. Now I understand as far as today's standards this is prob a slow computer and not going to run games very well any way you slice it...
