I need to buy a laptop, something that will run Windows, photoshop, export 4K videos. Any reason to think a Ryzen or i7 with a 4060/4070 will be cheaper in Taiwan rather than America? I will go back to America for a few months, can buy there and haul back or buy here.

    Idk about cheaper but you may have access to different models. Also a Taiwanese laptop will have a Taiwanese keyboard (basically US qwerty but with bo po mo fo characters also printed on the keys).

    What did you end up doing? Prices for new electronics are practically the same when I was looking at mobiles. Both countries have good deals if you buy used and know where to look. eBay in the States and maybe somewhere in those tech malls of Taipei.

      We ended up ordering something off MomoShop. Sorry for late reply, was detained by authorities (IE., the Wife) for playing an RPG too many hours in a row.
