      honestly some family members, like my grandfather, understand that I'm capable with computers (I do it for a living after all) and will listen to my advice. He has an older Lenovo desktop that I had upgraded the memory on years ago (to a whopping 4 GB, the most the motherboard could handle lol) and then it died one day. He replaced the PSU himself and it still had problems so I took a look and found the motherboard had shorted out all over the place (visible burn marks). Ended up throwing a new mobo in and a new SSD at the same time (cheap $30 one) since all he needs is to be able to access email and work in Office.
      Total cost for repairing was about $100 in parts. Not too shabby overall, but at least he was able to talk to me about the things that need to be done and was willing to listen to my advice. That machine has been running on the new mobo and such for well over a year now without a single issue, so I'm thinking he'll be good to go, but even when it dies, we've talked about building him a good cheap low-power AMD system for around $350-$400 in parts that I think will do him nicely too.

    • @nardalis4832
      @nardalis4832 Před 3 lety +1

      @iTheGeek I had 24/0,5 (although the true speed was only around 15-18) in speed which is definitely low today. Reinstallation of Windows took around 3-4 hours, and then you had to sit with the rest of the after-updates for 10-11 hours. I couldn't do anything at all on the PC while it was using Windows Update, it would lag hell. So no, it wasn't really the biggest culprit. The biggest culprit was the fact that the HDD couldn't work on more than one task at a time.
      When I play Warframe, they have this kinda "optimization" thing who is like defragmenting but only Warframes files, its the same thing there. Can't do anything while that one is doing stuff.

    I have that exact laptop or one with the exact same shell. It doesn't have a graphics card but is pretty fast with decent RAM and is very reliable. I've had it for 4 years now and it's never failed in any way. It's a really nice fall-back option.
    Also despite it not having a graphic's card nor much grunt in general I still game on it sometimes. Mostly old games from my teenagehood or of similar era. Yeah they are not the most complicated or nice to look at but they are still fun. I still play plenty on my Switch and the graphics aren't that far apart. I grew up with 30fps gaming so while I now normally set it to 60 or 100 I can still make due just fine with 30 if I have to.

    • @Chris-ey8zf
      @Chris-ey8zf Před rokem +2

      This is only because the Switch is basically a glorified gameboy, and this laptop you are talking about is NOT fast whatsoever. Most smartphones have better specs than this. It's probably why smartphones tend to cost more than these laptops.

      Yeah, these passively-cooled celerons are basically only going to be usable under LXDE and similarly low-spec distributions. I just can't recommend Linux at the moment because both Firefox and Chrome(ium) don't support video hardware acceleration, so these machines can't reasonably even be thin clients for the modern Web.
      For details, Firefox is planning to reenable video acceleration in v80, but Chrome's locked it off. (This bug still isn't fixed! It's been open since 2012!) You need to trust someone else who compiles Chromium with video acceleration force-enabled since the code exists and works. (If your drivers are working right, anyway. This is their reason for locking it off!)

    I was playing a gig many years ago and a mate / fellow DJ there brought his laptop along - he was running behind so he got there with only a few minutes until his set so he was pretty pressed for time.
    He goes up to the booth and starts setting his stuff up - and then he powers on his laptop and the screen goes blue and it says "installing 1 of 76 updates" - I will never forget that moment, it was one of the most classic stitch-ups I've ever seen hahahaha.

      Generally Production Values & Presenter Skills have Improved so the videos are much more watchable, the Quality of Jays videos now Phil works there is very noticeable compared to his original content,
      Plus it can make it easier for new viewers to find content they are looking for instead of scrubbing through thousands of CZcams Vids in Google search 🙄

    I have an older Dell laptop with a Core M7 passively cooled... So I found a few things that actually makes a slow PC much faster :
    - AdBlock, obviously. If you don't load ads, they can't slow you down.
    - ThrottleStop. That's an undervolting/turbo management software which will let you run at full turbo forever, while keeping the CPU cooler by undervolting it.
    - h264ify. That's a Chrome extension that forces CZcams videos in h264 mode instead of VP9. H264 is GPU accelerated while VP9 isn't (before Intel 7th gen).
    With this, my laptop is litterally twice as fast in 3DMark and the browsing experience is MUCH better thanks to the CPU not being pinned to 100% when playing a video or loading some random ad.

    • @MYtastePT
      @MYtastePT Před 3 lety +5

      Ads are still loaded, adblock just hides them from view. If you want to stop ads from actually loading you need to use something like pihole or any other custom DNS that blocks requests to the ad servers

    • @xeon2k8
      @xeon2k8 Před 3 lety +13

      That’s incorrect. Ads are not hidden , the request is evaluated against a custom set of regular expressions on the ad blocker extension and if it matches it blocks the request. You can check this on the debugger tool of the browser on network tab

    De-bloating programs are a lifesaver - I've been in the habit of just storing my files on separate drives with backups if they're important, and if things get "slow" (with traditional HDDs) I would always just reinstall windows on a whim. This was a real pain, prior to USB thumb drive installation, but it's always what I've resorted to, back when HDD were king. I still use several, because I tend to download large files like anime, and the storage capacity can't be beat - especially with some of the more current HDDs - I mean really, a 10 TB drive - one that can also be used for MOST gaming at nearly no detriment compared to SSD - it's hard to find a replacement for that, so with games that are not that large, I throw them onto a 4 to 10 TB internal drive - and of course, any larger media that I don't need the blazing speed of an M.2 or SSD to consume immediately. Things like that.... don't take fast hard drives if you aren't doing editing. HDD's are still very relevant, depending on what you're doing.
    Not sure how my comment turned into an advertisement for HDDs, but... this happened.
