They do anything a simpleton like you requires.

What does that even mean? Video intensive?

You really are clueless. All motherboards support a variety of processors. The simple fact is that a proprietary mobo is shit and has far fewer features than a motherboard from manufacturers like MSI, ASUS etc. So your argument is shit.

Ancient trash that is totally outdated and completely limited. No one should be using a BIOS anymore you numpty unless they have some old piece of shit computer. UEFI loads both Linux and Windows far faster and has numerous advantages.

Ironic, but the simpleton is you and no one refers to a GPU as a "Video card" anymore, and they haven't for decades.

What a clown.

from what you describe as your requirements, most middling laptops will do it and future proof you for more than 4 years, they'll have the RAM, be fast enough, graphics will be ok and storage - just fork out about 30-40K and you won't go wrong

Only someone pretentious would call a video card a gpu, don't you think. It's what I still call them and it's still what they are.

Snubby? Pretentious?

Surely not.





Added: "mobo" - what a fucking cock. Trying to speak like the youngsters isn't he.

Snub completely ignored the OP and made ludicrous suggestions that don't meet the OPs needs. He just wanted to try and boast about his Uber Wank Station.

David, if your budget is 20k baht, take a walk around the IT/computer shops in your area, see what they have, compare prices and specs, then buy one that takes your fancy. Easy.

Prices will be the same or very similar for each model between the shops, but one shop might have a better deal on one model - either a lower price or better specs for the same money.

In the shop, you will be able to see if you like the look of it, feel it and see if it is light enough for you.

I think most new machines with Windows installed will come with W11 installed rather than W10, but you might get an older model with W10 pre-installed. But don't worry too much about that. You will soon get used to whichever version is installed on it.

That's ridiculous. Call it a graphics card then you don't need a card to watch videos. Stupid dated terminology.

Whatever boomer.

I never made any suggestions, you moron. I was responding to someone who was bragging about his Mac.

Snubby, tell us more about your "mobo" and how you know what all the cool kids call things.

He funded it from the whole bitcoins he was buying for $5 in 2012, and uses it in his Tesla while driving Grindr Russian bitches to his million dollar decking over looking Lake Microsoft.

Yup.

From the invadeIT page I linked to, the lappies for 20k hover between 8gb and 16gb RAM.

With lappies being not quite as easy as desktops to upgrade parts in the future, 16gb would be preferable.


Though as with most things in this regard, listen to Baldrick.
