I was thinking about going to buy a computer tonight.
I don't know much about them, but I was going to go to a place to buy a top of the line model.

so
I went to walmart.com and looked up current prices and stuff.. and it turns out desktops are like $400 more than I expected
plus.. I don't really know what is better than the laptop I have anyway

The price of a graphics card today costs just as much as an entire computer did like 6 months ago. Thanks miners.

Wait, it's asking for some kind of login. Weird.
Edit 2: I tried allowing third party cookies and it seems to be working for me now. Seems interesting.

Yeah. Bitcoin can't be mined with normal GPUs anymore but you can still use them to mine other coins. Farmers buy them up as soon as they come back in stock so it is really difficult to get your hands on a decent card. Cards that used to sell for 400-500 now sell for 900+. Ram prices have also been high for a while. Building your own computer is a lot more difficult so a lot of people are opting to buy preassembled machines. The benefit of this is that you get some components at a really good price( often the processor and graphics card) but the other parts are garbage (motherboard doesn't allow for expansion, power supply is limited, cheap components for the rest of the computer) so it has its benefits and downsides.

do you want to play games on it? do anything that uses a lot of CPU?

or just turk?

you could buy something that will turk just fine for ~400.

I bought a refurbished (Microsoft approved) business machine, a Dell Optiplex. It came with a cheap new keyboard and mouse. Cost was $245, free shipping from the refurbisher. Ordered thru Amazon with all gift cards. I got it expressly for Turking. I've used it with no problems for the past 4 years. A work horse. Granted it's not for gaming, but I don't play anything but casual games and rarely. Best computer I've ever used. It has certainly paid for itself.
