So choose a computer, laptop how to fit?
The new school year has begun, students and students are eager to enter the school, and accompanied by the need to use computers as a tool to support indispensable learning and research. Today, TipsMake.com will introduce, share with you some useful experiences when choosing to buy a computer to suit your needs!
1. Choose by brand:
In the past 10 years, Vietnam has become a name that attracts many big players in the manufacture and distribution of laptops in the world. We can easily see a variety of laptop brands flooding the market such as Acer, Asus, Dell, Lenovo, HP . to luxury brands like MacBook, Alienware .
In fact, the brand selection is also somewhat offensive, because we see many Acer, Asus, Dell computers . in stores, shops think that these are best-selling computers. It is not wrong, it is not really accurate because standing in the position of new users, having little contact with many types of computers is difficult for them to know exactly which type is good, which is stable .
There are many, many laptop brands in the market
According to our subjective comments, currently on the market, Acer, Lenovo, Asus laptops are taking up the overwhelming number, followed by other companies like Dell, HP, SamSung .
2. Choose according to the purpose of use:
This is one of the deciding factors that helps you choose a laptop that best suits your needs. Specifically:
- Learning programming, graphics: you will need a computer with a CPU (core i3, i5 or core i7 condition), high RAM (average is 4GB now, can raise RAM at your liking). As for graphics, it is preferable to use a video card - discrete VGA.
- Learning documents, normal presentations: just enough configuration (currently i3, i5 core laptops are much cheaper than before).
- System administration: the server line for this usually requires CPU (good virtualization support), high RAM (running real machine, virtual machine .), large hard drive capacity (contains lots of data).
3. Select by operating system:
This criterion is not important, because installing an operating system is not so complicated. You can choose laptops with pre-installed Windows operating systems (these are usually a bit higher). Or if you have used the open-source operating system (Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, LinuxMint .), there is no problem, because most of today's low-cost laptops have been preinstalled with Ubuntu from the factory. .

5. Select by price:
Economic conditions will determine whether or not to be comfortable in choosing. There are many prices for us to buy, for example:
- From 5 - 10 million: many designs, average configuration - low.
- 10-15 million: lots of samples, moderate configuration.
- 15-20 million: many codes, high hardware configuration.
- 20-50 million: also many codes, configuration is not thought.
- Over 50 million: must be great!
6. Ability to upgrade, weight .:
In this respect, the laptop cannot be compared to a desktop PC. On laptops, only the following parts and components can be upgraded or replaced easily:
- RAM: During the warranty period, you should not arbitrarily upgrade RAM.
- HDD: Currently, laptop hard drive capacity has increased significantly compared to about 10 years ago, so there is almost no need to worry about this.
- VGA: this case is quite difficult and complicated, because laptops can replace VGA, it is already a VGA plug-in, and the prices for such laptops are not cheap. As for normal laptops, it is almost impossible to change, and if you want to replace it, you have to remove the mainbard, the cost will be quite high.
Besides, the current popular laptops all have moderate weight (from 1 - 2KG), and with special laptop models (especially those with up to 5GK). The carrying on the mass 5KG is also not very comfortable, so you should consider carefully. Hopefully the above share can make it easier for you to decide which laptop to buy.Good luck!
