| Anyone remember the HP voodoo envy 133? What would be a modern equivalent? Posted: 03 May 2022 07:00 PM PDT This was the sexiest orange and black laptop ever. Nice even bring shape with no taper and carbon fiber throughout. What would be a modern version of this? [link] [comments] | ||
| Should I Replace or Fix Dell XPS 13 Posted: 03 May 2022 05:53 PM PDT I bought a Dell Xps 13 (9380) in 2019. It was great had no problems but it recently just died for no reason that I can think of. I took it to get fixed and they said it was the motherboard and it would cost $400. Would it make more sense to use that money for another laptop or to fix it. The most i can spend is 600 on a new laptop. And I feel that at that range my Dell is better. But I do not know much about laptops so I would like to know what you guys think the best call is.

| Alienware x14 vs. XPS 13 Plus? Posted: 03 May 2022 05:26 PM PDT Alienware x14 vs. XPS 13 Plus? I'm having a hard time choosing between these two laptops. First of all, I should clarify that I already have a high-end desktop computer which I use at home. I need to buy a laptop for work (I'm a university professor), but I still need it to have the highest performance possible while maintaining portability. The laptop will be used for:
I don't really need the laptop to support gaming, because I'm obviously not going to be gaming at work, but it would be nice if it did support gaming, for the rare occasions where I want to game on the laptop, for example while traveling. However, that's not mandatory since my desktop PC is where I do all of my gaming. The reason I'm looking at the Alienware x14 even though I do not intend to game on it is that I want a small and portable laptop I can carry with me around campus and when traveling, so I'm only looking at 13-14" ones, and this is pretty much the only 14" laptop currently available in Canada that has the latest specs (Intel 12th Gen CPU, DDR5, etc.). Plus, with a gaming laptop I can be sure that it's designed for maximum performance. There are some 14" options with AMD 6xxx series CPUs also available in Canada right now, such as the Razer Blade 14, but I prefer Intel 12th Gen due to the much larger number of cores, and the Razer only comes with up to 16 GB, while I need 32 GB. In both cases I'm considering the maxed-out specs. Here is a comprehensive comparison: CPU: * Alienware x14: i7-12700H at 45W * XPS 13 Plus: i7-1280P at 28W * Comparison: Both CPUs are very similar, with 14 cores (6P+8E) and 20 threads, 24 MB cache, and up to 4.7 GHz turbo frequency (the i7-1280P actually goes up to 4.8 GHz). The only difference is the power, with the i7-12700H having more base power (45W vs. 28W) and turbo power. I would imagine that the i7-12700H will be faster since it can use more power, but it's very hard to find any benchmarks for the i7-1280P since it's so new, so I have no idea how the CPUs really compare. GPU: * Alienware x14: NVIDIA RTX 3060 (discrete) * XPS 13 Plus: Intel Iris Xe (integrated) * Comparison: Obviously the GPU on the x14 is going to be much better. The question is, how better and for which applications. In terms of gaming, I can't imagine that the integrated GPU on the XPS 13 Plus is going to be of much use with the latest games, certainly not at the native 3.5K resolution, but like I said, I don't really plan to game on it. The question is whether the internal GPU be sufficient for video editing and some scientific computing tasks that utilize the GPU, but I'm not really sure what the answer is since most benchmarks only compare gaming FPS. Memory: Same on both, 32 GB LPDDR5 at 5200 MHz. Storage: Same on both, 2 TB PCIe 4.0 SSD. Of course, the actual drives could have different levels of performance, but since there are no reviews of the XPS 13 Plus yet that provide performance numbers on the SSD, there's no way to know how they compare. However, I imagine both will perform roughly the same. Display: * Alienware x14: 14", 1920x1080, 144 Hz, Non-Touch, 400 nits, 1700:1 contrast ratio * XPS 13 Plus: 13.4", 3456x2160, 60 Hz, Touch, 400 nits, OLED * Comparison: HUGE win for the XPS 13 Plus, as the display is roughly the same size (only an 0.6" difference) but has a much higher resolution, is a touch screen, and most importantly, it's an OLED display. I've seen a few laptops with OLED displays, and the improvement compared to LCD displays is very noticeable! Really the only downside of the XPS 13 Plus is the low 60 Hz refresh rate, but since I'm not going to be gaming on this laptop, I don't think that matters much. Size and weight: * Alienware x14: 321.5 x 262.8 x 14.5 mm, 1.84 kg * XPS 13 Plus: 295.3 x 199.0 x 15.3 mm, 1.26 kg * Comparison: Again, HUGE win for the XPS 13 Plus in terms of portability, as it is 2.6 cm less wide, 6.4 cm less deep, and 580 g lighter. Really the only thing the x14 has going for it is that it's 0.8 cm thinner, but honestly thickness is the last thing I care about in a laptop, the desk and bag footprint is much more important. Connectivity: * Alienware x14: 1 USB-A port, 3 USB-C ports (2 of which support Thunderbolt 4), 1 headset port, 1 HDMI 2.1 port. * XPS 13 Plus: 2 USB-C ports with Thunderbolt 4. * Comparison: HUGE advantage for the Alienware x14 here. On the XPS 13 Plus there are only 2 ports, but even worse, the charger connects to one of these 2 ports, meaning that you really only have just 1 Thunderbolt 4 port and THAT'S IT. This isn't a deal breaker, but it does means I will need to buy a Thunderbolt 4 hub and carry it with me wherever I go so I can connect to USB-A, HDMI, and/or a headset, which reduces the portability of this laptop. Price: * Alienware x14: 3,000 CAD * XPS 13 Plus: 3,250 CAD * Comparison: Honestly, the price difference is negligible, and besides, this goes out of my expense account at work (it has a limit, of course, but an extra $250 isn't going to make much of a difference). Keyboard + touch pad: * Alienware x14: Has a pretty standard keyboard and touch pad. I love the full-sized arrow keys and the dedicated volume and mute keys on the right. * XPS 13 Plus: Has a "futuristic" keyboard with the up/down arrow keys mushed together, and the function keys are replaced with a "capacitive touch function row". The touch pad is "seamless" with no indication where it starts or ends. * Comparison: I feel like the capacitive function keys on the XPS 13 Plus would be annoying to use, but I won't know how annoying until I actually try them out. I do think it's something I could get used to over time, though. The "seamless" touch pad on the XPS 13 Plus is getting a lot of negative feedback - personally I actually like the idea, but I don't get why they couldn't at least mark where the touch pad starts and ends with a slightly difference color or something. Overall I think the Alienware x14 definitely wins in this category, but only because it's similar to what I'm already used to from other laptops - so I'm willing to give the XPS 13 Plus a chance. Conclusions: The Alienware x14 has a faster CPU (pending benchmarks on the i7-1280P, but it's a reasonable assumption) and GPU and a much better port selection, but the XPS 13 Plus is smaller and lighter, and thus much more portable, and in addition has a much better display. So basically it comes down to the following questions, which I would love to gets feedback on from you:
If the Alienware x14 provides, let's say, 50% better CPU performance and 50% better GPU performance, then it might be worth giving up the extra portability and OLED display for. However, if I only get 10% better performance overall for the applications I intend to use the laptop for, then I might go for the XPS 13 Plus instead. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

| Posted: 03 May 2022 07:37 PM PDT Hello, I am current a student of computer science, I am looking a laptop below 800, to play video games, and to code, I don't really want to play huge games, since I have my pc, but I would like a laptop that can play any game if is necessary, I have my eye on Acer Nitro 5 Gaming Laptop, 9th Gen Intel Core i5-9300H from amazon, it is a good choose? or would you guys recommend me another one? is a better laptop under this price? or if there is a best laptop a bit more than 800. thanks [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 03 May 2022 07:33 PM PDT Hey everyone! I currently have a windows desktop but I'm wanting to make my setup mobile for music production. I'm looking into getting a new laptop, potentially a new macbook. Does anyone know if it works find to transfer my main solid state drives to external drives and then use them on a macbook that is running bootcamp? thanks! [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 03 May 2022 05:39 PM PDT Hello! Out of interest, what is the best laptop with an upgradeable GPU and CPU (as in socketed) I know, very niche; but I just want to know out of interest That's it Thanks! Edit: Used/older laptops would be interesting as well [link] [comments] | ||

| Looking for Ultra Thin and portable laptop Posted: 03 May 2022 04:58 PM PDT Hello all, I have been trying to decide on a laptop. I do not currently have one as I have a beefy desktop machine. But I will be traveling some for work and pleasure. I do not want a gaming machine. I think I want a 13inch or 14inch. As they seem to be the most affordable. I have looked into the Dell XPS 13, Zenbook 14, Surface Laptop, and Macbook Air Basically, I want a pretty screen for coding as well as movies. So I think I would be wanting a 16x10 ratio, OLED at 4k maybe or close to it. And then I know I want the 12th gen CPU. I would not be opposed to a ryzen CPU either. Then I need to decide what would be good for specs. I keep leaning towards higher end but I don't think I really need that powerful of a thin and light machine. I was wanting the i7, 32gb ram and 1tb SSD but after thinking about it because as I said I have a big desktop that is powerful I don't want a desktop replacement as I could just remote into this machine if needed more power. So maybe i5 16gb ram 500gb SSD or even 256gb as I do have portable drives if needing more storage. I would greatly appreciate some help on deciding and any extra info you may have about why you recommend this or that. Thank you! [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 03 May 2022 04:29 PM PDT Hi! My laptop recently stopped being able to charge. I replaced the battery and tried a different charger and it still didn't work, so I took it to a repair place, and they said the charging port is broken. It's attached to the motherboard, and they said it's too risky to fix it cuz they might fry the whole board. I was wondering how I could find and install a board replacement or would somewhere else be able to repair the charging port? [link] [comments] | ||
| Recommend me the best gaming laptop under 1600$ (in terms of performance and battery life.) Posted: 03 May 2022 04:25 PM PDT I prefer performance over anything, so please find me something that has the best specs. Also, long battery life is my 2nd priority. I don't care about the keyboard and design or other crap. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 03 May 2022 04:24 PM PDT I've just got an Asus ROG GL503VD, and its motherboard and CPU spikes up to 90°C from time to time (but not when idle, so its ok). Do I worry about these temperatures? Can it stand even higher temps? Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||

| How to find which display panel the laptop has Posted: 03 May 2022 02:13 PM PDT Some laptops are available with different display panels. For example, some Asus Zenbooks come with either a 2.5W 300-nits panel or a newer 1W 400-nits one, with the same resolution. Is there a way to find which panel a given laptop has without disassembling it? [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 03 May 2022 01:49 PM PDT So a week ago I was cleaning my keyboard for my laptop and then when I went to use it it didn't work, I don't have money to get this fixed and don't know what to do. The main problem is that when I press a certain key (h or 7) they just slowly spam and no other key works. any ideas what to do? The laptop is hp. [link] [comments] |
