Bough new lapprr (Pretty good sale)
« on: Mon, 21 September 2026, 09:37:53 »
Dat Acer 16 inch on sale $999 

3K oled 2880x1800 (amoled?), 
intel 358H (B390 igpu)
16gb ram,
1TBssd 

@ bestbuy

So, Tp4 has been waiting for this chip for a long time,  benches around 9500 on passmark, which means it's ALMOST as fast as an nvidia 1060  @ 3.5lbs.

The issue Tp4 had with the previous 140v  from the 258v processor, is it's just not fast enough for HDR tonemapping.

IDEALLLLLY, Tp4 would like a 1660ti lvl power in an integrated setup, buhhhhh that doesn't fit the wattage as of yet.

Probably next generation.


As a portable work maboob, solid.

Tp4 was thinking about the 32G,  but honestly, for $700 more ? IDK.....

Should arrive tomarrow.
:D

32G
$700 more ?


Prices for storage have gone completely insane over the past year.
I put together a legit but rather modest build last December - appalled by the prices THEN - but they have easily doubled again since then.

Thanks, Republicans

Fohat, you must realize by now, the 2 parties are identical.

They are equally responsible for the current Ram-pocalypse.

Having trouble remembering a war that the Democratic Party started.

The Vietnamese people had been struggling to eject France for years before Kennedy stupidly decided to take to take it off deGaulle's hands, and Clinton was helping the UN in Bosnia.
