I have around 500$ to spend on tech. Living in the shittier parts of the EU. My desktop PC is shite.
2010 Mac pro or Samsung Chromebook plus? What would you buy?
>>
>>59020687

build ur own pc and source cheap used parts from rich EU fags

you can build a $1500 PC for $500 with parts that are basically brand new

This. Are you insane?

You can build a pretty comfy build for $500.

I know, I know. Just looking for something between the two.
My reasons for this are quite stupid but it is what it is
>>
Also, would go for the Mac 100% but I'm wondering about the chances that it will break 2 weeks after I buy it or something
>>
499 dollar build, any game should run just fine on it

Switch the 1050 for a 770 and take an i3 - i5.

Barely better than Linux.

yep. I figured you out quickly. you're a failure at life boi.
>>
>>59022632
thanks, probably going to go back to the military sometime, already have a few years of service behind me and a nice rank developers here could only dream about, I mean that's what failures do, get ripped and fuck bitches
>>
>>59022653
that sounded wrong, more like, pussy ass developers like you*

there

>>59020806

it will work. I have an old Powermac G5. I put in some extra sticks of Ram and had to upgrade the Graphic card with one that is compatible which is hard to find.


If you don't upgrade the parts in it don't upgrade the OS. it will make it run like shit
>>
>>59022728
It annoys me how hard it is to find a list of graphics cards compatible with Mac pros. You'd think someone would care enough about this. At some point all Nvidia were compatible before some new architecture (forgot which one)

>2010 Mac pro
why the fuck would you spend 500$ on a 7 year old laptop ??
>>
>>59022951
500? MBP 2012 is like 400 max.
>>
>>59022951
>>59023043
Mac pro is not MacBook pro. Google it. Plus Apple shit is more expensive here for some fucking reason. I think customs.

this is moronic, SSD is the single biggest upgrade you can give a machine. HDD would cripple even a high end machine.
