    Non gaming laptop with desktop grade cpu

    Think about cooling, not just CPU Your current i5 5200u is dual core+ht+2.2(2.7turbo) I7 6700 desktop is quad core+ht+3.4(4.00 turbo) Dual to quad, 2.2 to 3.4, you should see that your desktop is 3 times faster than your laptop? (Ignoring CPU generation improvements) I7 6700hq (laptop ) is...

    Buying Laptop on Ebay

    using US cell phones in Europe

    http://www.verizonwireless.com/plans/travelpass-countries/ just make sure your countries are included in Verizon's travelpass program, and your plan qualifies (recent enough plan like "MORE EVERYTHING", not a grandfathered unlimited plan) (it's $5/day in Brazil or Spain during august)

    Do cases w/ USB 3.1 exist yet?

    what kind of type-C are you looking for? just data transfer, or charging? type-C has different power delivery profiles (PD Profiles), you need to look into this as well (max is 100W @ 20V/5A i think...) nexus 6p would need 15W @ 5V/3A, macbook would want 29W (14.5V/2A), which is a strange combo

    microSD SD card vs USB adapters, same thing?

    again, no such thing as UHS-3 there's UHS-1 and UHS-2. This is the bus (transfer) speed. You can see the extra pins for UHS-2, that allow for higher transfer speed. Backward compatible with UHS-1 card readers (slows down to UHS-1 speeds). Useful when transferring data to a computer (eg: copy...

    How do you verify VPN encrytion? I'me using OpenVPN

    you need to activate the projectFi sim on an approved (nexus 5X/6P) device from what I've seen, people only get t-mobile signal on non-sanctioned devices (so it sounds like tmobile is default, and the software/sim switches to US-Cellular/Sprint. unfortunately, doesnt' look like the...

    Looking for a gaming laptop (budget inside)

    it can be close if you do roughly the same nondemanding tasks in HQ vs ULV HQ chips contain the same low-power enhancements as ULV chips. HQ chips just have more cores (core parking can disable the unnecessary ones on battery mode) If you compare idle (or low workload) battery life tests...

    Looking for a gaming laptop (budget inside)

    Not necessarily If you do the same light tasks on battery mode, the fullpower CPU should down clock and stop unnecessary cores, giving you similar power draw as a ULV chip. You can adjust turbo clocks in power options as well - Intel has been doing a good job in power gating unnecessary...

    Suggestion for thin / light laptop with good battery and DVD drive

    (ignoring any potential issues with DRM) if it's a straight disc clone (aka copy the contents of DVD to drive), it's at most 5GB (single layer DVD)-10GB (dual layer DVD) if you want to spend time transcoding/compressing the DVD into a smaller space, you can probably get away with 1-2GB per...

    Is it worth getting 32 GB of ram if I plan to run VMs ?

    if you're concerned with your budget, go for highest capacity dimms (2x8 over 4x4), and fill up the dimms later if you haven't, buy& allocate separate drives(RAM Drives are really nice, SSDs preferable, HDDs) for each running VM I believe 2500k maxes out at 32GB, so 2x8 seems ideal (if you...
