Hi guys,
I have a mac rn and want to get a pc (and monitor) and wanted some recs especially for the laptop. Does it matter what monitor I get? Can it just be a Phillips from Amazon?

First, do you want a PC or a laptop ?
Second, is this for gaming, work, or both?
Third, what’s your budget for the Monitor + PC ?
A laptop - I need something good for financial modelling / IB stuff. I already have a mac.
In terms of budget, I want to spend enough to have a laptop that runs data/models efficiently and is good for work… but also preferably not too expensive considering I’m a college student who already has a mac.
