Yesterday we covered a really good laptop RAM deal wherein you get a G.Skill 8GB stick for as low as just $56 making it an ideal purchase in this current economy. If you have a laptop or notebook running Windows 11 or 10, going from 8GB to 16GB helps immensely. Check out the linked article above to learn more.
Meanwhile, if you are on the Apple side and wondering when you should consider getting or upgrading to the newest M5-powered Mac laptop, the 13-inch MacBook Air model is currently at its lowest ever price as it is on sale for only $1350 (purchase link under the specs table down below).
As always compared to a traditional x86 (AMD and Intel) Windows device, the big headline here is performance per watt. Apple claims the M5 brings stronger CPU and GPU performance while still keeping the Air completely fanless. The Cupertino giant promises that you get silent operation, no thermal throttling in normal workloads, and consistent performance whether you’re browsing, editing photos, or working across dozens of tabs.
Display-wise Apple continues to refine what was already one of the best panels in this class. The Liquid Retina display remains a core highlight, with vibrant colors and high brightness that should make everything from document reading to streaming content look clean and sharp.
