Description If you wanted to know what my setup was like behind the scenes, well, here ya go!

If you look closely to the far right, the computer is one of those old Acer Aspire laptops, I can't remember which one, but I remember that it has some really good specs:




1TB storage space:
While since I have yet to remove all the bloatware as I only actually have less than 400GBs left of space, but it is good enough for what I need.

8GB RAM:
It may be average level memory but it is good enough for all the programs that I use, as you may know, I obviously don't have the Adobe Creative Suite, especially as some of their programs apparently require 16GB of RAM MINIMUM, which would have killed my computer.

AMD A9 processor:
It is now a bit outdated, it was good in it's time but as Windows 11 got released nearly 2 years ago, that operating system requires some RIDICULOUS minimum requirements. The A9 processor is unavailable meet the requirements to support Windows 11, the processor in question is like THREE YEARS OLD as of this time.

And since Windows 10 will have it's support dropped by 2025 in two years time, unless I'm gonna have to depend on either constantly scanning my computer with Malwarebytes or have my laptop broken into and have upgrades done on it's internal parts with the risk of it getting damaged permanently, I'm probably gonna have to soon get a new computer, that way I can still be uploading stuff for you guys to enjoy.

Which is why that as soon as I can, I will be opening as much Patreons and Donations as the internet will allow me to.

But... about the positive side of the processor, it was able to let me have multiple browser pages, a file explorer, programs and an Edge Bar all at the same time and it still ran very fast.

Or is that the works of the RAM?

It also manages to keep the laptop cool as I regularly check the cooling vent at the back with my hand and I usually feel little to no heat. And it allows me to have lots of devices plugged in by port all at the same time.

AMD Radeon graphics:
Yeah! Something real good this time! The graphics are good for basic gaming, design, video watching and other kinds of things, I don't have a Nividia graphics card although I want one, but the Radeon graphics are for what I need at this time. It has the ability to switch between all of your graphics profiles settings depending on whether you are a streamer, standard, gamer, power saver or eSports champion with just the click of a button.

It can also record and/or Livestream your video game footage, send you notifications, appear as just a sidebar on your screen, change your video mode depending if you are gaming, graphic designing or watching a movie, have individual settings for each game, check your performance, a built in web browser, a voting section for new features, and lots of other really cool stuff that it can do!

In fact, I think it is probably like the built in XBOX game bar... ON STEROIDS!!!




So if you're wondering why I had only started this DeviantArt account just recently, well it's because I had only just got an Acer gaming external monitor for the laptop since it's internal screen got damaged while I was in the middle of playing a game(what a way to ruin someone's fun!) back in early 2020, so I was not able to use the laptop again for 2 years until Christmas 2022.

I had to use a much lower end laptop for a while until then, that laptop is okay but it was not powerful enough to support all the programs that I have on the Aspire laptop right now, it only had nearly 60GB storage space, and a smaller screen, It also had an Intel processor and an Intel graphics, although it meets the minimum requirements for Windows 11, so I might be able to upgrade that laptop to Windows 11 and still use it to upload stuff for a while.

But still, the Acer Aspire laptop is still a good laptop, probably one of the best that I have used. And as I had gotten an external monitor, a keyboard and a mouse, it even now feels like a desktop computer!




There will be more information about the rest of the stuff that I have on the desk in the future.
