>Gaming laptop
It's incredible for the first week, before the heat literally starts melting parts internally. You WILL see reduced performance after a week, and gradual drops till the end of time. Laptops are mini-ovens.
Wait for next gen
Current gen is pozzed
Also if you buy intel cpu have the expectation that NSA can see everything you're doing through the built in backdoor (IME).
What I do is I commit to upgrading only when the GPU's series start with odd numbers, just so it lands on 5 (which is a halfway point) or 7 (which is a lucky number).
You do realize that a 4080 TI will be cheaper with time progressing? It's not a golden investment. I do agree that the market is fricked, I do also agree that we will soon see a decrease as blue chips are in a porc cycle spiral.
Yeah no shit bud but do you really think prices will drop that low? Ffs just look at Kijiji or Facebook marketplace right now and tell me the prices for used GPUs seems fair. You're better off scouring these sites daily in hopes of finding an actual rare deal
and here it comes the goyvidia shills pretending it's the other side that has driver issues
how's those VAC bans treating you after laughing at AMD for the exact same thing goyim?
Wdym? The bans have already been reversed. At least the NVIDIA issues were valve's fault, unlike AMD. AMD was so fricking moronic that they decided to implement an anti lag feature that involved hooking into the game's code without informing the devs - triggering bans. There's a difference between the two. Just know that AMD driver issues have been an issue longer than you have been born and they're just a headache. This is coming from someone who has done all AMD builds in the past: don't bother with their GPUs. I'm not saying NVIDIA is the greatest company on earth or anything, but hey, what's the other option? Intel? Let's be realistic here bud.
better than drivers literally not working like on goyvidia's side

Never been an issue though? Are you the same homosexual who installs 10 tens of bloatware and reinstalls their drivers 40 times and then complains about performance issues? Face it, 99% of games are made with NVIDIA GPUs in mind, AMD is just an afterthought.

Spend the money you save by buying the GPU second-hand on a good CPU. Spend a little more on the case than you think you'll need. Same for the power supply, get a little bigger than what you need. Avoid LGBT lights shit.
You don't need the last GPU. You can still go with a 6Go and run games on high settings (don't play your games on ultra, it's stupid).
You can also get a cheaper Windows license that I advise you to tweak with MSMG Toolkit before you put it on a USB stick to perform the install once you get the computer.
Without the GPU and the Windows license, my computer (2019) cost me a little less than 1300€. So around 1500€ was my computer.
Gaming laptop with RTX 3050, an i5 12000H, 8GB of DDR4, and a 256GB SSD.
this is good if you dont wanna play anything released after 2024
who does?

A bit exaggerated, but honestly not by much.
>gathering all the $
Gathering from where? Bushes and tall grasses?
from your prostitute mother
i7 4770k
24gb ram (1600mhz)
gtx 980
Simple as.
Nice but I have a 980Ti
rock on brother
>980
Found the poor moron who complains about optimization lmao
I'm not whoever you're talking about, my 980 runs all my emulators and 10 year old games well (and new games with settings turned to medium)
actually optimized games still run at 60+fps ultra on that card
even the 970 with 3.5gb is barely struggling on actually optimized games
nice larp stupid homosexual, that card was already chugging 6 years ago when i replaced it
Works great on my machine, you prob got a lemon
How's school, kid ?
Having a rough time ?
How hard is it for you guys to gather $1500?
Are you just savings really aggressively or are you living paycheck to paycheck or what?
well its more like 5k$
>$1500
that's still almost a grand away from a 4090 and buying JUST the GPU
1500 dollars is hard if you don't live with your parents or didn't build a career yet (like you're working retail or fast food)
that's not even enough for a decent GPU you poorgay
>6800xt
>5600x
>32gb fart ram
>2 terabrap
>200+ fps ez
>max graphics yup
>more vram than nvidya kek
>greentext ma homie
Order one extra mobo, psu, and ram for when one of those is inevitably DoA. Then return what you don't need.
Go middle and reliable. Make sure you get a good PSU, and probably a future proof motherboard. Everything else can be upgraded along the way.
Wait for next gen

Wait for 50XX gen of nvidia and amd
>Wait for next gen
been building PCs since 2001 and I've heard this at every single point of time for 23 years
Should wait til next year to buy that car too. And that house.
What I do is I commit to upgrading only when the GPU's series start with odd numbers, just so it lands on 5 (which is a halfway point) or 7 (which is a lucky number).
3070 ti if you are broke. Tbh I would wait at least one year and buy a 4080 TI used for like 250 bucks.
LMAO you fricking wish bud. Prices are never going down like before. Even the used market is fricked.
You do realize that a 4080 TI will be cheaper with time progressing? It's not a golden investment. I do agree that the market is fricked, I do also agree that we will soon see a decrease as blue chips are in a porc cycle spiral.

Yeah, imma take the 250 usd back and make it 650 usd for a used one in winter 2024. Idk what I was thinking.
If you want reliable, avoid AMD GPUs. Play it safe. Their CPUs are great though. Still, avoid their video cards as much as possible.
and here it comes the goyvidia shills pretending it's the other side that has driver issues
how's those VAC bans treating you after laughing at AMD for the exact same thing goyim?

hahahahahahaha
Yeah? Have fun with dealing with your shit frametimes AMD-gay. I wonder how you're coping with that.

Sure. Let me see if I can remember where I put my catalog.
2500k + rx580 8gb. You're welcome.
Honestly, I'm just gonna get a prebuilt from cyberpower next year.
just get stuff with high numbers
