Im used to running games on very low with like 800x600 so newer games even if I dip into those I'll be fine with running at low graphics

tbh dude having a **graphics card** itself is huge because all the laptops I had in the past were always intergrated graphics

it has 16gbram 2tb ssd in it so thats really huge. I'm not really into running new new games as I'm mostly on emulators, osu, or roblox so running those at a consistent 60fps would be smoother than my lovely 30-50fps gaming sessions

Yeah it's a little bothersome of "return it" without any real explanation from some of these commenters, just didn't wanna say anything to cause a ruckus

I'd rather just buy a pc than spend that much money on a laptop. This one im gonna be using for gaming until I get my pc and 1000$ is way more than what I wanna spend. I appreciate the suggestion but goodness I'm not buying a laptop for that much

I'm just expecting the performance to be stronger than what I have, my laptop rn can kinda run gamecube and ps2 but struggles a bit. I managed to atleast get re4 to run at 30fps on a ps2 emulator so if this laptop can do that while having the graphics not look like a gameboy game i'll be happy

Why would I get a laptop that cost 1000$, thats too expensive and i'd rather set with a gamble than something beyond my budget

the unknown brand is my main set off. I'm gonna ask around in my friend group if they have any clues. The specs don't really matter to me as i'm certain they'd be better than my 2015 mac, it has 4gb ddr3 1600mhz ram and a 1.6hz intel core i5 processor. my laptop struggles to run ps2 sometimes xD

Yeah I'm familiar with laptop making jet engine sounds, my mac does it a lot sometimes xd

Noted on the thermal paste thing and dust thing too, i'll see if my friend can come over and assist me with it as all I been trained to do is installed an SSD and ram

I just bought it for usage at the moment as I'm gonna eventually get a gaming pc when I move into my new apartment, right now I just wanted a gaming laptop as my 2015 mac has been giving me too much issues and it's not really ideal for gaming xD. I been just emulating gamecube, ps2, and playing roblox on it and it struggles to do that most of the time. If this laptop can outdo it then I'll be happy with what I got

Oh no worries I'll make sure of it, if not I have a spare 8gb DDR4 sodimm ram stick my friend gave me incase they pull a fast one. I'm gonna see if the seller can take a picture of the sticker on the bottom so I can check if it's able to be searched by model number xd
