[quote=gzz]I had no idea Ryzen 5 had such better built in graphics as Intel chips.
Ultimately it’s not very important. ZK will probably barely notice his new PC is faster than his 4 year old one, and not notice at all the speed difference between these two PCs, unless he is doing some power user stuff like video edits.
I still use my 2011ish Gen 1 i7-890 desktop, and it really is barely any slower for most daily tasks than my shiny new Omen 25L.
The biggest difference for general office use is that the new PC does OCR of large scanned documents a ton faster than older PCs. Not sure how often people need to do giant OCR projects however.[/quote]
If you plan on doing some photo editing, or use a drawing app like CorelDraw, it makes a difference too. Not sure if these cheaper boxes allow for a ram upgrade. A lot of times, to cut cost they started soldering the memory directly onto the motherboard.
I would say for the talented, you could build a much better system if you wanted to assemble it yourself, but that takes a lot of work.
