Ok, so I have a couple things I have been thinking about.

First, I'm looking for a simple messenger application that can work across iPad, iPhone, and PC. My grandparents are going to be the primary users of this application and the use would be to simply message me.

Second, what do you guys think about external gpus? Im considering not purchasing a desktop again. I live the mobility of my laptop. Anyone on here use them? I've looked at the Razer Core but whoa that's incredibly overpriced.

I'm also considering reapplying thermal paste to my COU and GPU in my Dell XPS 15. It gets mighty hot when playing WoW. Also going to undervolt a little.

Any opinions are welcome. Tell me to go fuck myself, give advice, I'm cool with it.

Get a laptop with a 1060 in it. External gpus are too expensive to justify i think

I havent really kept up on them, Only saw 1-2 of them over the last year~


Either way, That's pretty expensive considering you still need to buy a GPU to put in it

If external GPUs were worth it, you would be on a waiting list to buy one.
