  • Depends on what you use the computer for, for gaming, maybe you’re right, idk. I personally use the computer for 3D modeling which mostly relies on the GPU.

    I’ve recently built a computer with the latest gen GPU and got a nice 12 gen i7 as platform for it, the GPU is from 2025, but the CPU is like 4 years old.

    The thing is, I could have gotten a much older CPU haven’t I found the 12th gen for the same price. If I could just upgrade the GPU and ram on my old laptop I wouldn’t have bought a whole computer.

    Besides, buying a laptop with 16GB of vram would have been much more expensive than a desktop.




  • I want to agree, I used to hate wireless headphones, until I realised that wired don’t last long if I wear them anywhere outside my desk.

    The cable keeps getting caught in door handles, accidentally stepped when I need to crouch and then snapped when I get up or the plug simply gives up from being constantly bent inside the pocket.

    I’m a person who can use a soldering but that doesn’t make repair much easier, phones don’t usually like the 3.5mm jacks available in the market, opening and closing whatever plastic thing covers the contacts or the back of the drivers often break after a third time opening it.

    The cables themselves start to breakdown and that time I ordered a whole replacement cable off eBay the phone lost all bass (probably high impedance).

    Another issue is that modern phones output a very quiet signal that doesn’t get loud enough even when plugged the HD25.

    In end wireless headphones solve this problem, I still use wired headphones on my desk. But for mobile use wireless it is.
