A Proper Back to School Laptop Guide 

thanks!!! :o

You are the best, man

Thanks!

THANK YOU!

you’re the only youtube who truly cares about students❤️❤️❤️

😂

A 2 in 1 with great battery life? Works for me.

I laughed out because of that. Now we need laptop with proper Optimus Prime feel. 😂

yes

This comment was in the preview but luckily I didn’t see it so the ending of the video wasn’t SPOILED for me

Linus: Wait a Damn Minute...

For real. Most tech RU-vidrs seriously think $1600+ laptops count as back-to-school budget devices.

Yeah. Unbox therapy. My man really knows budget and he proved it with his affordable gaming laptop video.

@Joe then you haven't watched Dave's older back to school videos😂

It is 700$ and I want Optimus prime, one shall stand one shall fall 🙈

Exactly

For Rich people 2k isn’t nothing, that’s 200 for them .

yeah but have you seen the pretty lights and the 1% discount

or gaming laptop for student

" Can I borrow the Zephyrus Pro Duo? With the 3090? I need to sort... Emails.."

At that day and age, a 3090 is probably -only- good for emails.

@@FullyChargedSRG at that time, the 3090 would be what the 980 and all the gtx cards are now.

@@justaperson8852 I think that is wrong.. remember 1080TI ? that thing Is still beast even after 4 year's and still powerful than 80% of GPU normal middle class people buy. Demand is insane and we can't even create enough cards. Look at prices how insane they are

@@ridhamh2966 video games are increasingly becoming less optimized and more intensive especially with a new generation of consoles which then allows developers to list their games farther, so the 1080ti isn't really a beast anymore

Lmao that was so funny that he added that

I don’t get it

It got me good ngl

Gave me a mini heart attack

I was actually going to close the video LOL

Gayy

@@tamla9875 welcome to 2021

You sound jealous! Lol. (I know I am.)

Seriously!

"and another 3090 to send my emails"

@@lee-oh1vy "Make it SLI pls"

At this point I also think his kids don't mean anything to him anymore.

@@myown1316 I hope that was sarcasm man. Otherwise you seem to have come to a very messed up conclusion about his life by just watching his videos.

poor kids :(

I don't know man but when I start earning I'm gonna make an entire collection of rc toys 😂 it's always been one of my long term goals

He has kids?

This should be like a pinned comment on all such videos tbh... I know people who bought m1 and then some software wasn't just available on it.

My current major is IT-related. Thank you.

Aerospace engineering student here. I was looking for this type of comment because it is SO true and I haven't seen anybody talking about it. In my 4 years of college about 80% of the software required run only on windows so be very aware of that

What would you recommend?

what would u recommend

Guarantee this will collect hundreds of likes! So accurate lool.

You meant pure bronze and copper at that point

He's done this for the past couple of years for back-to-school.

Definitely bronze for someone living in India though

@@Mixiravav-MilkyIce exactly we're on a budget!

He makes some excellent points regardless.

@@Mubashir_AK true

me too

True. Unlike mkbhd

that was my logic, I got a used surface laptop 3, maybe ill get the steam deck or something lmao

Man when I was at Uni I had my desktop at home and just took a USB stick to the computer labs 😆 super portable! Laptops can be handy though 👍🏻 nowadays I have my AMD/MSI/Nvidia gaming PC and a MacBook 13”. The MacBook is nice to use because it has great trackpad, screen, keyboard etc and the gaming PC is running Windows for compatibility. Best of both worlds 😁

That makes too much sense

@@PLAYSTATIONGUYGaming unless money comes in

Some solid machines for school with good battery life start about 1000$ so it is better to take gaming laptop with ryzen in that price range

Is it rice gum?

Sweaty??

That part killed me lmao

@@sir_abhishek idk man as an Asian me and my Indian friends don't even know lol

@UC5ozAh-1qtYZA4tp-JlkSsg I mean for Western people 'asian' mainly means east Asian or just Chinese people in general 😂

Hey I want to buy this laptop for drawings using clip studio do u know can it run well?

@@twoone7159 I use Clip Studio Paint Ex, and I've never experienced any problems! There might be times where, for example, you apply a gaussian blur or anything that involves high rendering, I imagine the laptop might take its time, but it should have upgrade capabilities to ram and storage which should help! And adding font always slows the program down, even on my pc, wacky. Hope this helped!

Did you find that 8gb of ram was enough? I don’t want the computer to get outdated in a few years

@@ryan2-518 As of right now, since I haven't upgraded it yet, it's been running smooth with no worries. While I do not use the laptop frequently, it still has yet to slow down at all. And when using art programs that are pretty intensive, it still ran smoothly while using those. Hope this helps! In terms of longevity, I believe one ram stick is baked in with one open slot, I imagine it has a 16 gb limit, in an optimistic view, most likely an 8 gb cap, but that'd be 16 gigs total which should be good. The models change on Amazon, so you may not get exactly what I have, but I saw the sticks when I was adding storage, and I'm pretty sure I had 2 open slots with no baked in ram

I have one too with the 8th gen i3. Got it on Amazon for around $250-$300, can't remember exactly. Upgraded the RAM up to 12GB and it's been the perfect web browsing/RU-vid watching laptop. Easily handled all of my academic workload (mostly reading PDFs and writing papers) as well. I would 100% recommend this laptop to anyone interested in it. What you get for what you pay is a bargain. The build quality is what you would expect for a sub-$400 dollar laptop, but it's not unlivable and you get used to it. Plus there's something endearing about getting all the functionality you need out of a budget-conscious machine. My only real qualms are with the speakers - they're not great, but I usually just plug headphones in anyways. The display leaves a little to be desired as well - I wouldn't want to stream a movie on this thing, but that's why I have a 65' OLED TV. All in all, as I said before I would highly recommend it to anyone on a budget who needs a reliable laptop for essential tasks.

Lmao

srsly the end was so damn beautiful...i loved it

YOOO RAGE HERE DAMMMNN SHEEESSHHH I DIDN'T KNOW U WATCH DAVE

GIT IT.... YOU PROBS HAVE A PC TO DO STUFF

Rage???? I used to watch you so much so many years ago...

rage?

Clickbait title: DO NOT play with Optimus Prime at 3 AM (*SCARY*) lmao rage I remember watching you as a kid xD

Pretty much. He might have a topic or bullet points at most.

I felt like he is actually giving us suggestion casually, when it comes to these things while sipping coffee and enjoying the day.

That’s how u know he knows his stuff :)

even no cuts and less work for editors

@@allenpaulcovero159 I thought he edits it himself?

Ikr??

becoz he is dad 😛

**The Everyday Dad entered the chat

Technically he is because he watched Megan Fox

@@hansamitamajee1930 that figure is from the 1980’s cartoon, not bay’s movies.

@@YISTECH whatever

@@hansamitamajee1930 he loves megan fox just like he loves optimus prime

@@hansamitamajee1930 or maybe he is thinking about marrying optimus prime

@Joe thanks man :)

Good luck!

Good luck!

@@shaleva7 tysm babes ♥️

U R ON THE RIGHT PATH MY BRUDDA

That's because he already has a certain amount of comfortable money. I'm not questioning his character though. I'm simply stating that sometimes people aren't decent when they actually have something to gain.

@@mbongemabaso1207 Trust me lad a million dollars to someone who is worth about 2-3 is a lot of money

wow for it to last 7 years , even my 1 year acer laptop seems to be out of breath....

I have a 9yo dell but I'm tryna work to get a new

Your classes start in the middle of august?

Just throw an SSD in there if it doesn't have one already, maybe bump up to 8gb of RAM if it's only 4-6

@@agentbuckshot4697 and upgrade the CPU

At that point the title is just a gimmick to attract naive teenagers

She doesn't know, the kids don't know too. He hides it under the table when they around like a true legend🤣🤣

He gotta test their durability.....

The smile Dave had when he said "Transform!" is pure joy.

nah, they're DAVE'S toys lol. would you give a $700 Optimus Prime toy to a kid?

@@RealLaone table coming in handy now

Where did you buy it?

Yeah where did you buy it?

Makes no theoretical sense, but we all know it makes practical sense

When class gets boring whip out 400fps on doom

Why tho I much like the use of video editing and doing heavy stuff like blender and playing games on the go, the i3 laptop are just bad and slow, the MacBook air and XPS is kinda good. But iPad is a more of a great choice for students.

With ROG flow x13, it now make sense. For a rich student.

if you do 3d animation or video editing in college or school it makes sense

yea, altho the laptops he showed can handle basic gamings, just not the tripleA titles.

That’s why I choose my own laptop

@@diegoandy2031 nigga stop the cap go on notebook check you are not playing any new games with a 2017 apu or integrated graphics unless u r running flash games

@@Hectoricisboss Yeah only Older titles can, and esports stuff just lower settings that's of course if it's 11th gen and ryzen for comfortable stuff

@@Hectoricisboss bruh, you're trippin. These laptop can handle some basic gaming, including fps and even moba, all that shit. These laptops could definitely do gaming like a, well, a 400$ laptop let's say

Wich one lenovo x1?

Lol me too

Me. I mean I love the guy but that video was painful to watch. When someone's recommending a $400 headphone for school, you know something's not right.

🙋🏻‍♀️

Can I know what’s the new one you got? Im into arts too

@@rarissime5015 I switched to my brother’s MacBook Air (2018) but I’ll be upgrading it to a MacBook Pro 14-inch so I can run heavier stuff easier, and so I can use it alongside my iPad Pro 2020
