Jarhead Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 A refurbished M2 MBA 13 with the upgraded SoC, 16GB RAM, and 1TB SSD in space gray. Waited for the release of the M3s to see what the discounts would be like and other places like Costco didn't have any enticing configs/prices so went refurb instead. 1 Apple M2 MBA 13 (Cayna) - 8/10 SoC, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD Dell Inspiron 7577 (Mayu) - i7-7700HQ, GTX 1060MQ, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 128GB NVMe + 1TB HDD, 1080p, Win10 Home DIY Desktop (Altair) - i7-8700K, Radeon 6600 8GB, 32GB DDR4-3200, 256GB NVMe + 256GB SSD + 8TB HDD, 1080p x3, Win11 Home DIY Server (Mobius) - i5-6600K, 32GB DDR4, 28TB array, Samsung EVO 860 500GB cache, unRAID 6.11.5 Pro Other machines: Lenovo Thinkpad W520 (Strigon), Thinkpad X61t (Aquila) RIP NBR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturnotaku Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I'm swapping out my M3 Pro MBP 14 with a refurbished M1 Max 14 that MicroCenter has up for $2100. While I'll be taking a hit CPU wise, the extra GPU cores provide a noticeable bump in performance. Plus everything I've read indicates it won't be super loud like the M3 Max in the same form factor. The biggest upgrades, though, will be to unified memory and internal storage as the config I'm picking up is 64 GB and 2 TB, respectively. Apple Silicon Macs are emulation beasts, especially with the latest updates to Sonoma and RPCS3. So I'm going to be digging out my PS3 games and purchasing a DualSense to go with it. 1 Desktop: Ryzen 5 5600X3D | 32 GB RAM | GeForce RTX 4070 Super | 4 TB SSD | Windows 11 MacBook Pro 14: M1 Max 10-core CPU | 64 GB RAM | 32-core GPU | 2 TB SSD | macOS Lenovo IdeaPad 3 Gaming: Ryzen 7 6800H | 16 GB RAM | GeForce RTX 3050 | 512 GB SSD | Windows 11 Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro: Ryzen 5 5600U | 16 GB RAM | Radeon Graphics | 512 GB SSD | Windows 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarhead Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Some garage/shop stuff, but the main thing was getting a proper shop vac instead of using a repurposed home vacuum cleaner.

We refinance after the first 5 years to get some extra things done. It added 5 years to our mortgage. But NEVER AGAIN! We are in a much different place now. Get our mortgage paid off ASAP then just relax.
