TLDR:
My laptop is no longer working at the moment, but rather than invest in more repairs I've reached a point where I see it better to upgrade. Things such as the keyboard and audio jack no longer function, and it was volatile at best, slow to do anything and crashes often and would often stop working for days at a time. I can only cover most of the cost however.
I'm afraid I'll have to ask for help from supporters.
Full post where I am more through
Currently I am able to cover most of the cost, I have $700 but need $300. So I have a drive on my Kofi.
Thank you to anyone who is able to support, and a thank you to anyone who wishes they could. The thought is appreciated.

idk man, got 'lucky' at best buy - got an asus ryzen 9 for 1k, guess it all depends on you|
if you need portable/battery, then go for it/best guess, otherwise, i prefer a tower

You likely aren't wrong realistically a Tower would likely be a better investment in the long run, but for my current living situation and for what I do something portable but reliable works best.
But thank you, I appreciate any input ?
