    Is it cheaper to build a laptop too, or just desktops?
    Either way, even the pats for a cheap PC would be like twice my total savings :P

    I might need to get a new laptop soon. Mine's starting to do some weird antics that I think might be signs the hard drive is about to go.

    Laptops are more expensive to build than PCs. So if you plan on using it mostly at home anyway I'd recommend a PC. Otherwise if you need one for portability. Yeah, go laptop.

    Yeah, portability is the #1 priority for me, so desktops are out.
    On the other hand, my currnet laptop is pretty good for now, so I won't need a new one unless I want to play uber high graphics games.

    My current desktop is so bad sigh, can't even watch YouTube in higher than 320p without the picture freezing badly.

    Laptops are far harder to build as well. Laptops are cheaper to buy prebuilt. Just find one with an AMD Cpu, as most of them use intel and i cannot in my right mind recommend intel unless it is i9. And i9s will add a lot more to the cost.

    Even so I still built a nice system. I get issues with it.

    I had to upgrade laptops last year as my old one would randomly switch itself off it the screen got nudged or the battery got below 30%. Plus it was like 6 years old and could barely run youtube alongside antything else.
    (And it couldn't run Ori properly!)

    Now I just need to get a PS4 & a phone that's screen doesn't look like a mosaic and I'll be up to date! :P

    Well I just had my first real concerning issue with my PC. Pushed the button to turn it on. It immediately shut down. Then I sat there for about 30 seconds and it start itself up. Not sure what happened there...but concerning.

    Did it have an system update installed before it shut down beforehand? Sometimes with Windows 10 after installing it a new update it needs a restart as part of it, and only gets to that part on turning on, so when you turn it on the next day it finishes the update then restarts quickly after.
