- lliamander 6y agoDid they also issue a laptop?
- sosodev 6y agoNo, they asked if I needed one and I declined.
- lliamander 6y agoCool. Sounds like their cool with it then. I'm sure some employers don't mind saving the expense. If you don't mind me asking, what are the specs of your computer, and are they appropriate for your workload or overkill?
- sosodev 6y agoCPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Memory: 16GB Storage: Samsung Evo 970 500 GB NVMe SSD OS: Pop!_OS 20.04 Pretty middle of the road specs but it's plenty enough for the web development and light gaming that I do. :)
- lliamander 6y agoIndeed! Faster than almost any laptop for a much better price. Wendell from the Level1techs has said that, for most developers the R5 3600 is all you need. Personally I've been eyeing the 3900X, which is probably overkill, but is such a great bargain that it would be hard to pass up.
