Demystifying Tech Jargon
Buying a laptop in 2025 feels like reading a sci-fi manual. Here is the cheat sheet.
CPU (Processor)
The brain. Intel Core i5/i7 or AMD Ryzen 5/7. **Tip:** Look for ‘H’ or ‘HX’ at the end (e.g., i7-14700HX). ‘U’ series are for office work, not gaming.
GPU (Graphics Card)
The muscle. NVIDIA RTX 4050/4060/4070. **Tip:** The number matters. 4060 is much faster than 3050. Also check VRAM (get 6GB+).
RAM (Memory)
Short-term memory. 8GB is obsolete. **16GB is the standard.** 32GB is future-proof. DDR5 is faster than DDR4.
Storage (SSD)
Long-term memory. HDD is dead. Get an **NVMe SSD**. 512GB fills up fast (GTA V is 100GB). Aim for 1TB.
