in Germany like something out of a museum, in South Korea easily suitable for 4K gaming

On Reddit, a South Korean shows what computers in schools can look like. Meanwhile, some middle schools in our country still teach with floppy disks.

Are school PCs in South Korea suitable for gaming in 4K? With DLSS from Nvidia, certainly, at least that is the case in South Korea, at least in the case of this public school. There is certainly no crutch in the IT room. Quite the opposite: The PC probably even makes the average gamer’s PC in Germany swallow dust.

A self-described student and Reddit user AddictinApple posted the images linked below in a subreddit and also responded in detail and credibly to several comments.

What kind of hardware is in the computer?

  • Intel Core i7-12700 processor (12 physical cores up to 4.9 GHz)
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
  • 32 GB RAM (other PCs in the room are said to have 64 GB built in)

    South Korea: Land of Gaming

    Is this the rule in South Korean schools? Difficult to answer, as there is also a highly voted objection in the comments under the post from another apparently former student (who left in 2021). According to the original Reddit user, this PC pictured was only purchased in 2024. Previously, older models were in use, CPU i7 6700. However, some German schools may easily undercut this level.

    Furthermore, e-sports and gaming in general are known to play an important role in South Korea. We reported on one aspect of the topic in this article on MeinMMO, for example. It seems quite plausible to us that South Korean schools have much better hardware than ours. Even the Tagesschau had gaming in Korean schools on its radar as early as 2023.

    Appropriately, according to a comment by AddictinApple, League of Legends is installed on the computer by default. He himself started Digital Combat Simulator, as the task manager and a screenshot show. He brought it with him on an external hard drive and ran it from there.

    If you are interested in a particularly outdated aspect of German IT education, you should take a look at our colleagues at GameStar-Tech. They are writing about a worksheet that deals with floppy disks.

    Many students at German schools regularly visit McDonald’s branches and an experiment is currently underway in some places, although problems have been occurring for some time. The restaurant giant is currently testing AI for orders, but is now firing it at the end of July. The reasons are interesting, as is the perspective that we will show you in this article.
