Looking for a new laptop

[Obscured By Clouds]

So, I'm finally upgrading. My i7-2600K is going to find a second life likely as a machine strictly for Hyperspin. I built my current rig in 2011 and never thought I'd get a decade of use out of my primary machine.

But, there is one champ in this machine that beats out even the 2600K--my power supply from PC Power and Cooling, which I purchased in August 2008.

What an absolute monster. Thirteen years of heavy, near constant use--at times 24/7. Wish the company was still around.

PC Power and Cooling and Seasonic are the only PSU's to buy.

They're the only two I own

Well, I do have a Fractal Ion+ 660W that's in my HDD chassis, but for something that literally powers nothing but SATA Hard Drives, I'm not worried.

EVGA makes nice PSU's as well. That's what I have in my rig right now.

The absolute go-to for PSU info.

I'll never put EVGA in the top-tier that Seasonic currently holds. Seasonic focuses on power supplies, and has decades of reputation built up. But, some of EVGA's power supplies are quite good. I trust the brand as well.

This is the list I always consult too!

How the fuck did I live without an SSD. Warhammer used to take 5 minutes just to get into the game 10 seconds now.

I'm a Corsair guy myself. In a cheap build, Rosewill works just fine.
