If you can afford ... increase SSD to 1TB ... also try to get a standard ATX sized motherboard instead of mATX to lower cost ...

we have two brothers,
a color 3-in-1 DCP-J100, and a monochrome laser.
no issues, except that the DCP's ink has become a bit more difficult to source over the counter since covid.

Set up a PC for my eldest son today. Took advantage of the 12/12 sale. Most parts were delivered 12/15 except for the case fans which are still in transit. Will leave the side panels open until they arrive and monitor temps via overlay. The room has AC anyway.

Ryzen 5600
16gb 3200 CL16 RAM
MSI B550M PRO-VDH Wifi (wireless speed sucks so I plugged it into one of my extra mesh routers that even on wireless backhaul is still a lot faster)
MSI 6650xt
Seasonic bronze 550w PSU

If prices go down further I might upgrade my younger son's 1650 Super.

Yes Canon printer quality especially for photos is much more vibrant. This HP ink jet has been with me for 2 months now I just noticed when printing photos you should not touch the picture or else it will get erase and picture quality is just okay even on best mode.

Iba-iba bro: IT World, PC Chain, PCWORX (na di pa rin dumadating ang fans ordered 12/12), Seasonic, EasyPC. I had to mix and match based on price and model. I also had to keep each package below 25k for COD.

Took advantage of the payday sale yesterday and bought a gaming laptop. First time to buy thru online store. Now I'm looking at RAM and ssd to upgrade it when it arrives.

Di pa natuloy yung pagbili nito. Kinailangan ng backup laptop for my wife's work.

Creative founder Sim Wong Hoo, the man behind Sound Blaster, has died

If you played DOS games during the late 80's to the mid 90's, PCs didn't sound good. All we had was the PC's built-in speaker, aka. PC "buzzer", for sound and adding an ISA bus sound card were considered a luxury.

In 1992, I remember me and my younger brother pooling our resources to buy a Creative Sound Blaster Pro (1.0) sound card with a 2X-speed CD-ROM Drive combo. It included the games Alone in the Dark and Indianapolis 500: The Simulation, among others. We bought it from a shop in Virra Mall (Lamco) for a whopping P4,500. Factoring in inflation, that's close to P20,000 in today's money.

What particular brand of gaming laptop did you bought? I was eyeing for Machinike not that expensive but have good reviews by laptop factory.
