Either way, homework aside, I need a new PC and I see one for $500 to $600, maybe $400.

I’ll post what I said elsewhere:

I need:

At least $400, maybe more, for a good PC so I can do my homework.

…I lost mine. I am typing from my tablet as we speak. And it sucks. Genuinely sucks. Ugh.

Cash app is:

P.S. But yeah, like I said, I really fucked up my PC, err, accidentally. It’s… Yeah. I 2as planning to switch to a new one for about $600 and I may be able to scrounge up what I have to get on3 quickly, but I’m… going to need some help. Thank you all kindly. 🙏🙏

    Thankfully, the Thinkpads and Precision laptops are quite durable - these devices have a really good chassis, so you don’t have to worry about micro-cracks in the motherboard. If you want something more rugged, you could go for the Toughbook and the Precision Rugged series, but they’re going to be really expensive, which is not worth it. Since I am not still not sure about your actual use-case, it would be hard to recommend devices, but assuming that you don’t need a dGPU, the T-series and X-series would be the best bet (and even the P-series, if there’s a variant without the dGPU).

      Frankly? I want to use it for gaming as well and video-editing. Other things besides school and Internet. Basically, for as many functions as possible.
