@gatsie whats your PC loadout and how unhappy was it dual running WOW and Plug?

#3358

Yesterday while running plug, WoW only crashed once and it was because I accidentally opened Photoshop to edit my screenshot :sweat_smile:.

Oh, I run most games from my external hard drive.

My current laptop is now +/- 5 years old;
Anus R510C, 17inch screen, i7core, 4GB RAM, internal harddisk of 500GB and an Nvidia GeForce GT 720M graphics card.

I am actually on the lookout for a new laptop:

Thatā€™s an even bigger bottleneck. USB from that time is slower than SATA. I was more interested in if your CPU/GPU were on the verge of exploding.

Iā€™d be careful with the Taiwanese stuff. MSI arenā€™t known for their build quality. Iā€™m also against gaming laptops.

My Asus gets to cool off for 5 days a week. I havenā€™t checked the CPU yesterday, though :see_no_evil:.

My internal harddisk was getting rather full, now that I moved my game files to the external drive it seems to be running better.

My brother actually got an MSI laptop since a few months. Of course all is great when a laptop is fresh from the box. I do want a strong laptop that I can torture just as much as my Asus, perhaps even more.

What would you suggest?

If youā€™re that dead set on a gaming laptop, check out Dellā€™s G range, they tend to be good value-for-money budget-systems (The 3s donā€™t have the best build quality either though). Iā€™ve heard good things about Lenovoā€™s Legion series. The problem with gaming laptops is that youā€™re paying a permium just because it has ā€˜gamingā€™ stamped on the box and because of the RGB.

My advice is to settle on a vague loadout and see which non-gaming laptops offer something similar and at what price. The only downside of the non-gaming ones is that the cooling might be slightly worse. Also, my advice is to buy the cheapest version of the CPU/GPU/Screen option you want and then upgrade the RAM and SSDs on your own (much cheaper that way).

I donā€™t want to spam up this thread, find me in the tech thread if you want to talk about this more.
