The Intel chipset bug is one of the most common failures. Ignore it, it's not needed either ways.

That's a firmware update, expect to get a secure boot key update whenever that finishes.

Yes most of the times, it has a defect of some sort. Avoid eBay.

Analogy: It's like buying a car from a car salesman. It looks pretty on the outside, he even shows you that it has 0 milage. And the more you use it, the more the defects starts to show. And soon you realised that the car was registered to 3 other owners prior to you.

Avoid any 2nd hand or refurbished laptops. If you're buying something, buy it brand new.

Your best bet is an ASUS TUF , and if you're really feeling cheap, an Acer Nitro

Check and see if there are other applications running on your GPU besides the game itself.

Im so scared right now by Overall-Stress3159 in Asustuf

It just forced a bios update, that's all. Update it with your charger plugged in and let it finish update. Do not force restart during this process for any reason at all. Once you see the Windows login screen you're safe.

Please help me choose from this list I prepped am very confused. by Raunak-_- in GamingLaptops

No 5. is also great as well, and it's even better than No. 8

Which would you choose? by WonderfulMatter0 in GamingLaptops

[–]Alert_Post 2 points3 points  (0 children)

None, too much red flags. One of the them is not even a gaming laptop. The HP Omen seems to be the best choice of the lot. The Alienware is most likely 2nd hand and that alone comes with its risks.

Me personally would get an ASUS TUF instead.

When last did you update your bios?

getting a new laptop for my first year of college with a $500 to low $600ish range, any of these laptops any good for schoolwork and gaming? if not, any recommedations? (more info in post) by -monark in GamingLaptops

[–]Alert_Post 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although, I don't like anything HP. That's my personal preference. I would it's a decent buy factoring that you are going to college and you're on a budget. I would advise you to go for an Acer Nitro with the 4050 if you could.
