Why can't windows laptops get a similar build quality like MacBooks?

High end ASUS Zenbooks, HP Spectres and Dell XPS all have similar if not better builds (given the fact that they often allow for SSD/ RAM swaps), some have dGPU's and overall much better specs.

No other company actually cares that much about their customers.

What the fuck do you mean?
Like surface-soldered non-repairable/non-modular/expensive/exclusive marketed shit?
Do you notice how pretty much every modular component in the image provided has screws in them so in such case where the laptop does break, you can repair the individual devices at a marginally lower cost rather than repairing an entire mainboard?
Shame on you OP, you're the reason why capitalism is trickling into consumer-tier hardware
Say goodbye to Socket-ed DRAM/removable batteries you cuck

Can we all just unanimously agree that AMD's Ryzen is a failure?
I'll be exclusively sticking with Intel going forward; at least they've never let me down.

Well, look at it this way.
AMD made a huge jump from their older bulldozer based chips.
Using a Zen chip is now viable
Before, a bulldozer was a bottlenecking POS.
Bulldozer was an awful choice no matter how you looked at it.
Sure it's behind the 7700k in Gaming, but it's not necessarily a bad choice

Post your component list, rate other anons', and ask questions in general.
Always state the purpose of your PC, your budget, AND YOUR COUNTRY if outside the USA.
If you are asking for improvements, clarify whether you want to lower price or to improve specs or build quality.

Working on a completely new build, thinking of getting pic related. My current system still runs a core2quad Q9505. Any pointers?
I work primarily in Flash, Unity and Photoshop. I game regularly, but no single player stuff, only with a group. I am mildly interested in starting a streaming channel though. Thanks Anons.

Nothing substantial, sadly edition
Figured I would make a new thread for people to dump new finds:
>"Today, Tuesday 7 March 2017, WikiLeaks begins its new series of leaks on the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. Code-named "Vault 7" by WikiLeaks, it is the largest ever publication of confidential documents on the agency.
>The first full part of the series, "Year Zero", comprises 8,761 documents and files from an isolated, high-security network situated inside the CIA's Center for Cyber Intelligence in Langley, Virgina. It follows an introductory disclosure last month of CIA targeting French political parties and candidates in the lead up to the 2012 presidential election."
Daily reminder that Terry Davis was unironically right the entire time.

IRC: #/tpg/ on irc.rizon.net
Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).
----
If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W/P SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™
Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", ultraportable
----
Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap.
>Excellent keyboards - tactile feel and quiet.
>Great durability: chassis uses a magnesium rollcage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels.
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing in the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

I only use my Model M in the office, solely for IT admin street cred. It's a pretty overrated board compared against a custom job. Have you ever considered building the perfect keyboard for you?

As a die hard AMD fan, fuck WEGA.
That faggotry they pulled at GDC was disgusting. And showed how out of touch Koduri is. He was like a grandpa offering kids ice cream. And all they had to show for it was shitty shirts and no new info.
If I were a member of the press I'd tell Raja to fuck off at the next capsaicin. Unless they're handing out free tequila samples with fireball chasers.
