I really like this video. Very straight to the point, none of that nonsense BS by other youtubers. One thing I realized about watching this video that I didn't realized before is upgrading CPU. Now it makes me consider buying a desktop instead of a laptop (but I'm still thinking about it). Dekstop builds, specially gaming ones, are kinda expensive as well nowadays compared to laptops with the same specs, probably because of the gpus.
