Since home office I no longer have a laptop.
- quickthrower2 3y agoGood answer. A refurb Dell desktop tower or smaller form will get ya 10-20 years service vs. the 5 tops of the laptop (excluding battery and screen for generous comparison because they may fail sooner). Also laptops just seem to do sucky stuff like keyboard randomly stops working. Laptops suck.

- gtirloni 3y agoSame. I kept using laptops for many years after moving to home office but last year decided to go back to a desktop (micro-ATX build). I get 4-5x the performance of my last work laptop (Dell XPS i9) for the same price. It's dead silent and has a ton of ports.
- uncharted9 3y agoCan you share specs and places from where you sourced the parts.
- gtirloni 3y agoSourced at local companies in my country and not latest gen (Intel 14th gen was too new when I bought it and was overpriced. Same for DDR5). - Thermaltake Silencio S400 - PSU MSI MAG A850GL - ASUS B760M-PLUS WIFI D4 - Intel i5 13600K - 4x16GB Corsair DDR4 3600MHz - NVME WD Black SN770 2TB - ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 4070 Ti Super (16GB)
