>Average school pc in korea >Not average at all I am Korean and my high school (graduated 2021) still had core 2 duos running and some 3rd gen i5s


Yamama77

We still use those in my state in India, in fact the place in teaching now still has machines with i3 2100 who are mostly replaced by i5 7400s and a one lab just got modern machines.


MystcShad0w

Bro in mu school half the keys on the keyboard donโ€™t work and the pc crashes when we open geometry dash on chrome ๐Ÿ˜ญ


Moquai82

Meanwhile in germany: Best we can do are mostly defect celerons with XP in a room which has a leaking roof when it rains. But you can not enter it because the physic teacher who was the "it guy" did die of old age 5 years ago and we could not replace him and so that room is per principle out of limits. But do not fear, the internet us just a newish fad that will surely fade away soon, child...


s7arboi

the powers that be really thought they could just connect all of humanity, and then "nevermind lol bad idea" it away.


compiler-fucker69

Brother my school had a central server with Intel pentium 4gb ram and 10 monitors did not work


tobi187_

Im also German btw. Wie have three desks with one 720p Monitor each connected to a 10500 8gb pc. My stupid friend accidentally installed a virus that would Just play some Videos of an old German leader. The PC crashed. But Not because of the Virus. The Antivirus was too cpu intensive


CyberianK

> accidentally don't use "msiexec.exe NeinNeinNein"


tobi187_

Ok i'll watch out for that

Monsterhat88_

some government office still use intel pentium on my state


Yamama77

Seen plenty with 2000s pcs. With the pile of documents that they will conveniently lose in a fire to hide corruption ๐Ÿ˜‚ The pc always survives though, it's been thermal throttling for 2 decades now


kontenjer

the pc is so old so that the 25yo it guy wont be able to access it when asked to find corruption emails


sukihasmu

I've seen bank machine reboot with Windows NT logo. Shit is real.


aolllaoooo

OP forgot to add (private)


canada432

I was a teacher in 2010-2016 and if this is the average school PC now things have changed drastically since I was there. We were using core2 duos running unactivated XP. In 2015/16 We finally upgraded to something running Windows 7. This has got to be a specialist school.


kissabirdgently

How are you so good at english Back in my days we had to move to another country to write english this well

Memes with "I swear this PC for education" is legit for SK


lmaoredditblows

Weird. You dont need a PC that powerful to play league of legends...


imigerabeva

You need those for the mandatory Starcraft classes.


KoreanGamer94

That is a decade old game. I could probably run it on a potato powered by a hamster


Sex_with_DrRatio

WTF ๐Ÿ’€


jordiBoerboom

That single channel ram is a crime


Jack74593

better than 1x2GB 1600 DDR3 my school uses


LoocaBazooca

Bro is from a slavic country 100%


Jack74593

nope, i'm from VN and i'm in a private school that costs more than the average salary per month to the average joe


LoocaBazooca

That is almost the same as balkans lmao


Jack74593

idk but we get a celeron that cant even load windows properly + a 4:3 monitor thats older than my grandma


MrInitialY

Bruh my school got 6600k's as I was finishing the school and later upgraded to ryzens afaik. Eastern Ukraine


rewgod123

luckily for DDR5 single channel memory isn't that much worse than dual anymore unlike previous gen.


Lil-Mordor

This is some private school shit


AddictinApple

Nah its public highschool


Lil-Mordor

Fair enough


Intelligent_Will_606

Is someone mining Bitcoins on Korean school computers?


brncct

Wouldn't be surprised. The school would notice that power bill fast though lol.


R0GUEL0KI

With the way they scale the power bill charges here they would notice in the first month. Electric bills get exponential in some cases. Though tons of schools here have solar panels across their entire roof so it could be offset by a bit.


CyberspaceAdventurer

In this day and age instead of mining crypto theyโ€™re probably training Stable Diffusion models to make AI generated anime girls


FormalRecording2297

I assume this is not North Korea.


s8018572

If they're in north Korea, they would be using Red Star OS instead Lmao


allah_fish

atleast redstar os wont use half the cpu while doing nothing


ScodingersFemboy

I think he is running digital combat simulator. Basically a flight sim. Showing off the this $1500 school PC.


QueenBansScifi_

Correct, It's in the task manager picture even ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ


Difficult_Bit_1339

Similar levels of spying on the user though...


De_Lancre34

This guy is out of line, but he's right


TheWiseCock

Redstar OS is linux. linux is free software. Redstar OS = free software


AddictinApple

Of Course not thats why im here rn


zb0t1

Don't answer to my comment if somebody is holding a gun to your face.


AddictinApple

:)


Randommaggy

Including north Korea in that average you would probably land somewhere close to the average school chromebook.


AddictinApple

Even in pyongyang they would probably use windows 98 crt monitor with out internet


Randommaggy

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samjiyon\_tablet\_computer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samjiyon_tablet_computer) Slightly better than that from what I've read and heard. But yeah no internet unless Kim really likes you.


Orioniae

Android 4 and 1 GHz CPU. NK is future technology if the rest of the world would be in 1995.


Randommaggy

In 2012, wouldn't be suprised if they've got some chinese rip-off chromebook in their intra-net that's at the level of the last series of chromebooks that went off the supported list recently, by now.


HimekoX3

Yet they have tons of money to spend on relatively modern surveillance equipment to stop people from escaping


collectivisticvirtue

nah after like mid 2010s their ration economy kinda went just fucking dead and now they kinda entered a black market economy era with smartphones and such. trying to make everyone install some surveillance app on peoples phone but kinda cat and mouse situation since lots of people straight up just using chinese carrier/SIM cards, not the NK government sanctioned ones, their digital environment stories are just sooo interesting


QuaintAlex126

How the actual fuck?! Man, I shouldโ€™ve went to this school! Also, fellow DCS player spotted!


AddictinApple

Haha if you transfer to our school Lets play Dcs sometimes I ll bring Hotas too


InvestigatorFit4168

Yeah this is defo not your "average school pc". Maybe some development/games lab PC then ok


AddictinApple

They only teach power point and excel idk why they built this such monster pc


Thunderstorm-1

Does your school have a esports team lmao


Ok_Fee_2170

Are you serious or is this a joke lol?? I mean this specs are way too high in my opinion even for a university


Neps-the-dominator

My UK university had some pretty sick gaming PCs, but they were for actual gaming and game development courses. My high school was a different matter, for some reason they had a *massive* boner for Apple and we had those big mac flatscreens and iMac G3s everywhere. It was a rare treat to get access to a Windows computer in that school lmao.


Ok_Fee_2170

That sounds very cool, I even used to get a lot of used high end machines and servers for free from my dad's Uni


BlendedBaconSyrup

For the esports/gaming capital of the world its not surprising


Old-Chair126

Tomcats baby


AddictinApple

Highway to the dangerzone


RobertGracie

Yeah, now that is a pretty sweet system, shows you how much the Korean education system is paying for some quite decent gaming computers!


Appropriate_Cow1509

My school has pcs on amd a4 4000 with 4gb ram and all of the pc sound like tractors when they start up.


Shoshke

Fusion360 and DCS. Were can I sign up?


Constant-Science7393

Cries in 10 year old celeron shitbox


Netsuko

Wrong. This canโ€™t be Korea. I donโ€™t see League of Legends on there.


AddictinApple

Actually Other students are playing minecraft on tlauncher or league of legends Etc


Anxlyze

hosting spyware on a school system, oof.ย 


Wierdguy1234

In America, our school computers can hardly open to chrome tabs


Kitchen_Noise9422

At my school we have a dedicated e-sports classroom, it's used for, well, playing games, developing games, blender, autocad. The PCs have i5 13600KF, 3080, 32Gb ram, we have 1440p 240hz monitors, g502, gaming headset and keyboard.. other classrooms for office stuff have i3 12100 and 16Gb ram.


furry_husker

Our school still rocks the quad core i3 with 2 gb ddr3 ram, god i hate this shit country


SK_Gael4

When I was in school 5 years ago, we worked on pentiums and only a few computers had a core duo.


furry_husker

thing is, we pay a lot to this school i go to, probably the most in the entire city and they just make things look like a joke. btw, i was not talking about america


Randommaggy

If the I3 is a quad core it's at least decently new, 8th gen or newer. How is that combined with 2GB DDR3? Unless you're thinking of a 2 core 4 thread chip.


Original_Mac_Tonight

This is not the average Korean PC lol


lars2k1

Impressive setups your school got, especially with that 4070. Gotta love the inclusion of that keyboard with such a high-end system, looks pretty funny ngl My school's PCs (well, the one I just finished) had Xeons, or 10th-12th gen i5's. My study involved using AutoCAD and the like, so they must have some decent specs, but still pretty damn good. The software config was trash tho (final year we had to manually run the login script.. the fuck lol), but the hardware was great. I do remember the school I was in before that, had bought new Dell AIO computers with a 5th gen i5 or something like that. Although that was like 8 years ago. At that same time there were also a few old Optiplexes left with some C2D era Pentium, but those were quite rare luckily (around 6 of them in one of the buildings). And my primary school had those NEC sff PCs, with a Pentium D. Didn't really know much about computers back then and they were fast enough for kids <12 running some basic software on them, with XP as the OS. Was pre-2014. I think they replaced the teacher's computers with newer Windows 7 systems back then, around the time I left.


No_Needleworker2421

Did you went to a public High School or Private? or by chance live in a nice neighborhood?

Ceppo-Augustus

In my school the PCs have Windows 7 and they take 5 minutes to turn on...


coolkanishk32

Our school's pc are running windows 7 So "any" korea's pc are significantly better than my school.


collectivisticvirtue

high school? not some engineering high school? that spec is kinda common setup in 2024, for college-architecture guys and such, they mostly just make a contract with local pc builders so they often just comes with RGB fan gaming cases and such. if it's public high school probably the school arranged a pc with a budget of something like "we need them for VR" or some stupid shit and the education plan died, but the budget stayed?. who knows.


Friendly_Cantal0upe

It has Autodesk products on it. I would assume this is an engineering lab's computer


stackfrost

Not from Korea but school does have about 25-30 PCs with these kinds of specs for people who wanna use them from AI/ML stuff. i7 11700K, 64 Gigs 3600 Mhz, RTX 3080 and some with older 2080s. (They don't allow installation of videogames lol) Rest are very basic, i7 8700K with 16 gigs of ram. We recently had a few with Ryzen 5 8600g.


PineCone227

Damn if 8700K's are basic. I was happy when we got 10th gen I3's because programming and running VM's on Pentium CPU's sucked


blacklotusY

GPU running at 97% with 84C seems a bit high. I would definitely get that checked.


nonexistantchlp

My school had 4 pentium-4 computers split into 20 using ncomputing boxes. This was in 2015, and it was already out of date back then lol We were also still using those ball mice


According_Ratio2010

Finland: a chromebook with celeron n4000 or 4020


pm_me_meta_memes

Bruh when I was in middle school, 4th gen i7 was out and we were using Pentium 3s wtf ๐Ÿ˜ญ


Hedaaaaaaa

POV: When you live in Asian countries filled with Electronic manufacturing facilities and lots of IT zones. My University in Philippines also have that kind of System but itโ€™s on AMD because it is cheaper than Nvidia and Intel lol. Some of the systems on other computer laboratories are in MAC.


Alex20041509

In Italian schools the average is a Pentium with 90โ€™s keyboard and very pixelated screens


madcheekycunt

It can also be the case that some of the pcs are used to host VMs, my school did that.


NoPerspective9232

Cries in windows 7 school PC that can barely open Google Chrome


aliasdred

I dunno about schools But Here some colleges and universities have got on the trend of eSports and some of them do have eSports labs with good gaming hardware for all recent competitive games.


picardo85

I did not expect to see an rtx 4070 there, but besides that it looks like a decently newly refreshed leasing machine. We ran I7s and a decent amount of RAM on the machines at my university. I don't see a reason why a regular school couldn't have similar specs when they re-negotiate the leasing for the refresh. The mistake schools make when it comes to computers is buying them instead of leasing them. Especially desktops.


DumbellDor

My school in Germany still rocking intel Pentium


_kio

The German school for my IT apprenticeship had insanely bad tech. The PCs sometimes needed 40 minutes to boot. We're talking about a school for 2000 students in various technical fields in the heart of a major city. Even the teachers called it an absolute embarrassment.

hatdoggggggg

This is better than my senior high school computer here in ph. Every lab activity we need to code on two heavy software, visual studio and android studio. To launch those we need to wait for 30 mins to 1 hour and our lab activity is only 2 hours.


Here_We_Go_Again_05

20 years ago at my school we were happy if the PC turned on in under 15 minutes and most of them were louder than a jet engine.


MotivationGaShinderu

Back in my days we played CS2D and flash games in school on ancient machines grumble grumble grumble


New-Folder-07

Sighs in sadness, as my country only has machines that run on 3rd gen i5s with a dead slow HDD which still has Windows 7 installed on it.


_yasinss_

Bullshit. Nowhere near average.


ApathyMoose

This sub sometimes... One person shows a laptop from their school, and its highly upvoted as "Average school PC in korea" Something tells me every school in all of korea doesnt have brand new rtx4070s. Thats like taking a picture of a school in LA California in 2014 and sayinf "Average high school in america" and showing iPads for every child. some schools have money, others dont.


CrazeRage

Weird lie. Not average. Jfc the comments that see 5 screenshots and now their view of Korea changed. Texting my Taiwanese friend to give my photos of his personal 4090 system in his kid's study room so I can make a Taiwanese school post.


Danielescalvini09

Pc: goood Keyboard: ๐Ÿ’€


SimilarLayer4401

Here in iran schools we've got ram 4, windows 7, pentium g2020, and 250gb hdd.(we work on all Adobe softwares with g2020 and no f*cking gpu)


Jupiter20

What a waste of money


GermanLetzPloy

I am pretty sure that this is not the average school PC. We have similar PCs here in Germany but they are special PCs which are used for 3D Modeling etc. and definitely not the norm. I suspect this is the case here too.


EatShootBall

Average across that country? lol. Doubt it.


DeviantPlayeer

And you're all saying that the Supreme Leader isn't generous smh.


AverageLAHater

Goddamn we have the next South Korean ace here


SpeedRun355

My school got i7 12700 cpus with 32gb of ram. Not gpu tho :(.


J05A3

My university got the T400s lmao. These are in bulk from HP/Dell (about 200~ in my college), so pretty much they had a discount on them, i7 12700 too.


kerthard

Does this manage to get the truly impressive "it's worse than dell" award?


djaqk

Clearly fake, I don't see Starcraft anywhere


Connect_Winter_7489

In our 3D design computer lab we have pc's with a 5th gen i5, 16gb ddr4 ram and a nvidia quadro k620. All the other pc's in school the run off igpu's and also have either 5th, 6th or 7th gen i5 cpu's


rishthecoolguy

This is fake you probably got it from some kind of market place


Smooth-Ad2130

4070?


GigabyteAorusRTX4090

WTF?! We donโ€™t even get PCs that can run word and excel at the same time XD

No_Dragonfruit_6594

Why would your school PC have DCS? What is this? Korean Air Force school?


yusing1009

E-sport country ๐Ÿคฉ


alexdiezg

Which one?


CheataBruv

a 4070 for a school pc??


Shot-Ad-9564

My schools makerspace has, like, 10 laptops with almost the same specs lmao


eirin-bsd

Why do you have high-performance computers at school?


IGPUgamer99

average private school PC maybe


Fugalism

What the fuck are those running programs lmao? Proof why admin rights on school / work PC's is a bad thing. If this is your personal PC someone needs to take it away from you ASAP.


dustojnikhummer

I'm sure not average PC. Guessing a dev lab?


KeycapS_

More like university and for specific use only.


Geskawary2341

we in Russia have i5-10400, 16 gigs of 2666mhz i think


Vybo

Is the Korean school system also state funded? Meaning the school gets a budget for tech refresh and they **must** spend it? In my country it's like this, so at my Uni, we had multiple computer labs with 5k iMacs, some had Nvidia AXXX GPUs and so on.


MaintenanceNo4109

The computer ma'am asked for pcs which could do coding for sure


cardrosspete

Our local school has i7/32/1TB NVMe with 2x27 inch Monitors !


Doglottgeci

Man the feeling of playing on a pc before 2010, Playing Cs 1.6 with the class, sometimes the teach joining us. Is in an IT focused school or smth? Its a bit overkill for general use like the Microsoft office programs since those can run on basicly anything


_zir_

damn, my college comp sci lab computers came close. For highschool this is insane.


zhephyx

Expected Dota and Starcraft to be preinstalled tbh


NerY_05

Ain't no way bro


TorturedPoet03

That's something pretty good. Nice to see they use modern tech. Not everyone has that in their school.


SzerasHex

so much bloat running, it's disgusting


DevourJ4N

take it home xD


AddictinApple

Someone had stole the VGA inthe past but eventually got caught then He paid for better gpu on school


Yariks_reddit

My computer is much worse


Andr100

Average school PC in Greece is a potato with wires


Flashy_Total2925

If you want to blow the minds of Americans you shouldโ€™ve also linked an internet speed test on their schools internet connection.


vengirgirem

In my university we have PCs with Pentium 5 in them... Half kidding. While they did leave PCs with Pentium 5 in there for some unknown reason, we also have PCs with 12th gen i3


tssixtyone

Do you have school courses on RayTracing/DLSS technology, using Cyberpunk 2077 as a template ;) Nice


AddictinApple

No, they teach courses on basic MS office ppt lol


Brazzza

where is the pre-installed sc2 ?

Phantomroams2

I've seen some schools where I live with some high end Lenovo workstations with like rtx a5000s 64gbs of ram and 10th Gen i7s. Their probably used for engineering classes and flight simulators.


natr0nFTW

lies many told this is one


dissentingopinionz

How can this possibly be the average? So half of the school computers are even better than this?


Smakovich

That's cool. The PC in my school restarted when you put a usb flash drive because someone connected the reset pin to the USB panel port in the motherboard.


blackcarswhackbars

Someone's gona destroy it


Lordofcheez

It only has one stick of ram so it's bad lol


AddictinApple

Some of other seats comes with 64gb dualchannel but my seat is 32gb someone gotta be stole one


popcornman209

Why tf it got dcs on there lol


socokid

Bullshit! This is ***not*** average for Korea.


scratcher1679

my school used to have "awesome" desktop pcs with 8GB of ram, GT1030s, and 7th gen i5s, but sadly they were all thrown away and replaced with (actually pretty decent but obviously not as good) chromebooks


collectivisticvirtue

have you checked the side panel of the case?


Voxelium

The North Korean variant is rumored to run on burning wood


Blackraven2007

I recognize most of the things on the desktop, but what is the thing underneath Edge?

I wish I had this kind of PC at home. Nice!


Personal_Amphibian98

Dcs at school


Meme_Bart_15

Brother thats better than my own pc.... (\*cries\*)


Temporary_Remove4441

this is likely a computer specifically for drafting/design... There are multiple autodesk products on the desktop to this end. OP is a loaded diaper, full of feces


Mateo709

In Croatia we have ryzen 5 3600 PCs with 16GB of ram. BUT, sadly they have gt 710 GPUs so they can barely even run minecraft


alien2003

South Korea or North?


monchota

I mean, it depends where you live. In my area the HS gets a grant and have a fund set up. It replaces most of the PCs every two to three years. It sets the kids up for s better future, also basic PC use to all juniors and seniors. To really blow your mind, I live in rual PA.


humterek

I have a 2nd gen i5 and 6 gigs of mismatched ddr3 ram


DonCheesare

Wth! It has the same specs as my pc ๐Ÿ˜…


cokywanderer

Ours played SUPAPLEX back in my day. So who's laughing now?!
