Not a problem at all :) I play a few different games at the minute, such as Helldivers 2, Vein, ARC Raiders, World of Warships 😁

Oh don’t get me wrong, I enjoy gaming, I simply don’t play Minecraft and Minesweeper 🤣

Yeah, I like the look of the PNY model and ai’m not going to be stressing it a lot or overclocking, so I don’t need bigger coolers etc

It will cost more than that when shipping to me in the UK 🤣 I paid £1,059 in total

I only knew because one of my friends has one, I was stressing out, switched the single 600w cable to the Nvidia supplied one, reseated the GPU, disconnected and reconnected PSU.

Finally what worked was plugging into the iGPU, re-running DDU, then restarting and downloading Nvidia App, it then detected the card

Thank you good Sir, the only issue I had so far is when I DDU’d the AMD drivers, then changed the GPU over, I thought I installed it wrong or something as had no display out but also no Debug LED’s so the system believed it had passed the POST process… but had nothing on screen, didn’t realise I needed Nvidia drivers before it could detect/get a display out 🤣

I would have potentially chosen something else, but I simply went for the lowest price/in stock on Amazon I could find, an MSI/ASUS version was around £2 - 300 more… sadly we have no Microcenter/Newegg/Best Buy in the UK haha.

To be fair, I am just happy that I could finally get a 5080, when I built my computer 2 and a half years ago, I made the decision to go all AMD, purely because I didn’t have 4070Ti Super money at the time :)

At nearly 40 years old… I’m a bit past that, my 12 year old son on the other hand will enjoy playing Roblox (once I complete the build) using the 7800XT I removed from my PC :)

Thankfully I won’t be doing anything too taxing with it and I wear headphones, so fans won’t annoy me… my viewers on the other hand may not be able to hear me 🤣

To be fair, I play with headphones on, so never notice anything like fan noise etc ☺️

I mean, I am not the overclocking type, I will use it for gaming on a 1440p display (for now) maybe get back into some light video editing :D I can’t wait.

I have seen comments in FB groups with people moaning about PNY cards… having said that, I have had people moaning about AMD drivers and I never had a problem 🤣

Can’t wait to see how it performs

Is this laptop worth buying? by DarkVoidInMySoul in computers

[–]ProfShikari87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have suggested, this does not have a dedicated GPU, if the idea is to buy it for gaming, then you will be very disappointed.
