sorted byI have a Dell from a couple of years back with a 4500U (Zen 2, 6 core 6 thread) and Vega 6 in it and it was surprisingly capable. It runs photoshop, and I was able to play games like Snowrunner at 720p, Apex Legends at 720 or 900p.
Mine cost about £500 in Jan 2021, so to see a full laptop with better screen, 16GB for £384, this is a solid entry laptop. 256GB is a little small these days, but I dare say it might be replaceable
I changed it to include 16gb ram just to make it different from other deals on here actually. At £384 with better processor I think it's a good deal
What’s the cheapest way to get a legitimate windows key? Want something legal so no piracy please (edited)
There are legitimate Windows keys sold for under £10. They are not ‘pirated’ in any way. There are not multiple copies of the same key going to different people.
However they are most likely bought in huge bulk orders from MS on the premise they will be used on OEM devices and not sold on individually.
So there is no illegality in terms of theft of the software (piracy), the only question mark is whether the seller is breaching the terms of their purchase of the keys from MS.
The fact is that such sales have gone on for so long (basically decades) that there really isn’t an issue with such a key.
