    This cryptocurrency craze and parts scalping will be the death of us all. It's no longer just GPUs that are getting artificially scarce, susunod na mga high-capacity SSDs and HDDs because of the Chia cryptocurrency.

    Meron naman paisa isa ang mga shops for the higher end cards.

    Recently meron 3070 stock and 6700xt for many shops.

    unfortunately the Nvidia cards are priced 3x or more. AMD gpus are priced 1.6x or so sa Philippine market so we got one.

    Still very fortunate we got a 30series before the crypto price surge.

    College student? Macbook Air for sure. Will last their entire college life.

    Gaming laptop? I like the 14-inch Asus ROG Zephyrus G14. Just spec it to have the best video card for your budget. Best if you can buy abroad for better value.

    Got the Asus Zephyrus G14 Ryzen 9 1660Ti at a discount so good enough ... G15 would've been better ...
