so yeah i cant afford buying a pc and i got nothing to do. i wrote to amd this:''Hello AMD employee (s). I will go directly into the subject. I have a laptop but its condition is very bad. I talked to my family about buying a new desktop computer, but it doesn't look like it will happen anytime soon. Right now there is a sound comes from my computer, it closes, overheats, closes, freezes, etc. ... So it's not good at all. My request is to save me from this situation. I thought a lot before I wrote to you. I have participated in lots of giveaways but they dont worked. My last hope is you. Do you have any computer to give me? It doesn't matter laptop or desktop. I just want to get rid of my current situation. I hope you understand my situation. Hoping you understand, I thank you in advance and wish you good luck!'' and they head me to here. So im here now, and i hope things from you now.

sounds great - do you also want 2000$ free cash?
and why we not put the British Isles on top...

1. u spam here in the forum (2x same sh*t within 2 hours)
2. you give NOTHING in return...

your last hope should be: get a job and earn money!

bruh im serious. i am a student and i can't buy. about spamming it was a mistake xD

1. What is your budget?

2. Desktop or laptop?

3. What are you using it for?

4. Do you already have a mouse, keyboard, monitor, etc?

[esaix]

1-my budget is $1000-1500

2-i have a laptop, i want a desktop

3-im using my desktop NOT for games, for online classes and watching videos.

4-i have mouse only

Ok, I would guess that you're not wanting a laptop is partially related to previous experiences with a craptop... 

1. You have a lot of options... 

2. With that kind of money, you could buy a great PC. so you don't have any money... 

3. Since you are not gaming on it, I would recommend just the Ryzen 5 APU... Perfect For Watching Classes and Videos on, and OK for entry-level gaming too... (less VRAM than older APUs though)

4. For what you are doing, a laptop would be better... if it's a laptop then what external features to you want... to start... we can worry about internals later

[benman2785]

you have a budget of 1000$

Ryzen 5 2400G 150$
B450 MoBo 120$

32GB DDR4-3200CL16 130$
500W PSU 50$
CPU Cooler 30$
Thermalpaste 10$
Case 60$
2-3 extra fans 30$
27" Monitor 150$
Keyboard 40$
= ~800$

so where is the problem?

[cyberstorm64dd]

GPU! Where's that!

[benman2785]

i posted an APU built - so the GPU is in the CPU
but you could add 150 bucks for an RX580 or equivalent

[cyberstorm64dd]

OK, Thanks for Clarifying, also when you mention an APU, please put the full name, ie AMD Ryzen 5 3550H with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx     2.10 GHz (I think that is base speed) (btw, that is my current CPU)

It sounds to me as though your current computer could use a little TLC. I don't want to come across as callus, but it'd be a far better use of your time than begging for handouts that won't happen.

If you have any questions on how to do that, there's lots of Youtube videos out there that can show you how to clean and fix common computer issues. Alternatively if you have a specific question you could ask it here. There's a lot of knowledgeable people here that'd be more than happy to give advice/hints/tips/etc.
