update: laptop still dead

i am eyeing a new system, though: the dell xps desktop series. they aren't fugly like alienware or most gAmEr desktop pcs, but it still has roughly the same specs that i'm looking for (or i can select for them). only problems are that it's a dell, the fans can get loud as shit and it ships with 12 months of mcafee which i can't not select

if you wanna give me a suggestion, email me your current rig and your common problems. that way i can narrow down the list of components that are crucial, because i am aiming for a reasonably priced pc that can record and edit videos without a fuss. weird, unnecessary benchmark: it should run fortnite at standard settings. i don't play fortnite but if it can run at least that it should be good

do i have the money for any pc? yes (i have a job), but the budget is restricted to €3000 for the sake of also having enough money left in the vault for other shit, like a car. "3000 euros? sounds like a lot" well computers are marked up to hell and back in the netherlands fsr so what can you do

final note: i'm working on an interlang and i can't wait to put it on this website. 100% expecting toki ponists to shit all over it like seagulls if i ever do get feedback, so if you are going to argue for turning my creation into toki pona, just.. please don't. i will explain my rationale in due time, but for now it's good to get this out of the way

other than that? uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh idk lol cya
