[2016-11-13. : 2:54 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: I want a PS4 for The Last Guardian then get one[2016-11-13. : 2:53 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I think I was just really lucky with this laptop. It was both refurbished and a cyber monday deal, so it was remarkably cheap for how long it has lasted me[2016-11-13. : 2:53 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I just meant I'd already said a similar thing earlier I'd willing to pay $1.4, but <$1k was just my conservative and hopeful price[2016-11-13. : 2:52 am] NudeRaider -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: smh restarted computer and now my files are back on my drive. the fuck nice OS-[2016-11-13. : 2:52 am] Dem0n -- smh restarted computer and now my files are back on my drive. the fuck[2016-11-13. : 2:51 am] NudeRaider -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: NudeRaider FaRTy1billion I know. Interpret it as me agreeing with this statement. BUT I will say I'm having the "I want to use the thing as main gaming laptop, and I care about fps AND graphics quality" attitude in mind. If you don't care as much for gaming, you can do (now) with a 960 and probably for a while, too. It really comes down to how much is the graphics quality worth to you.[2016-11-13. : 2:49 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- If not, it'll probably still be what I end up getting because it will have more longevity[2016-11-13. : 2:49 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- no, it's completely valid. This is exactly the sort that I'm hoping will come down in price for black friday ![]() [2016-11-13. : 2:48 am] NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: But my reasoning is when you gonna invest a good chunk of money get something that makes you really happy, and that won't need replacement anytime soon. Know the saying buying cheap means buying twice? This should have started with "Sorry for being so completely out of the targeted price range."[2016-11-13. : 2:47 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: But my reasoning is when you gonna invest a good chunk of money get something that makes you really happy, and that won't need replacement anytime soon. Know the saying buying cheap means buying twice? FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: if not, $1.4k is more than I wanted to spend but will still be less than if I bought a $1k right now and then $1k in a year [2016-11-13. : 2:46 am] Fire_Kame -- yeah, I suggested to Farty that he get a really small case instead because he can update as he goes, but if he wants to use it for extensive travel that might be too cumbersome[2016-11-13. : 2:45 am] NudeRaider -- But my reasoning is when you gonna invest a good chunk of money get something that makes you really happy, and that won't need replacement anytime soon. Know the saying buying cheap means buying twice?[2016-11-13. : 2:45 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: big AF there's a smaller one that's the same price[2016-11-13. : 2:45 am] Fire_Kame -- actually yeah, my gaming laptop would shut down cuz it'd get so warm. But I can play casual games on here nbd. I think infrastructure in general has gotten cooler tho[2016-11-13. : 2:44 am] NudeRaider -- It has everything you need, including USB-C, has a really good GPU that doesn't get as hot as the 900 series, and is newest tech, meaning it's future proof, probably lasting you at least 4 years performance wise.[2016-11-13. : 2:42 am] NudeRaider -- if I had to recommend one laptop to you farty, it would be this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834233185[2016-11-13. : 2:40 am] NudeRaider -- CaptainWillCaptainWill shouted: Hmm, I've not looked for a gaming laptop in a long time. I always find them bad value for money and warm enough to fry an egg on. +1[2016-11-13. : 2:29 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I guess there are things like that that work well, my cousin has an nVidia Shield thing that does that[2016-11-13. : 2:27 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- A wireless monitor/keyboard like that would be cool, but probably have bandwidth issues for anything meaningful[2016-11-13. : 2:27 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- let's make a monitor/keyboard that is in the form of a laptop, but plugs in to a desktop with a long cord so that you can have it on your desk or take it in bed[2016-11-13. : 2:22 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- also I keep my laptop propped up on a book, so it actually doesn't get very hot[2016-11-13. : 2:20 am] CaptainWill -- Hmm, I've not looked for a gaming laptop in a long time. I always find them bad value for money and warm enough to fry an egg on.[2016-11-13. : 2:19 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- ya, because I hate my wallet and gaming performance and insist on being able to play on the go ![]() [2016-11-13. : 2:18 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- and HDD/SDD stuff isn't too big, because those are easily improved[2016-11-13. : 2:18 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- it seems like most everything has at least i5 or i7 (I think with these GPUs I didn't see any i5s), 8GB RAM, and 1080p screens. Screen res isn't huge for me, because any modern resolution is going to be an improvement xD[2016-11-13. : 2:14 am] NudeRaider -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: cool, thanks, you helped a lot np. Just keep in mind that with laptops you need to be willing to compromise regarding accessories or secondary stats. When I was looking for laptops I noticed when I set the parameters too strict I won't get any results and certainly not good value. With Laptops you just have as much freedom of every aspect. So the broad approach coming from the performance view (what you're doing) is probably best.[2016-11-13. : 2:12 am] Dem0n -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Dem0n false. The 1060 is like 20% better. It was like that for a while now, but the 1000 series has really blown everyhting out of the water. W/E[2016-11-13. : 2:09 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- like if I know what specs to look for, I can look for prices, brands and specific models from there[2016-11-13. : 2:08 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- ya, I will, I'm just focusing more on specs to get approximations right now[2016-11-13. : 2:08 am] NudeRaider -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: is msi good? It's the one that newegg shows the most as long as you don't get an acer everything will be fine. Still do you research though, as even reputable brands have a bad model here and there.[2016-11-13. : 2:07 am] NudeRaider -- AhliAhli shouted: will cyber monday have lower prices in EU, too? nude, do you know that? it will, thanks to Amazon. ![]() [2016-11-13. : 2:06 am] NudeRaider -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: so a 980 is way better than a 1060 even though it's a generation behind false. The 1060 is like 20% better. It was like that for a while now, but the 1000 series has really blown everyhting out of the water.[2016-11-13. : 2:06 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- 970Ms start getting in to the range of 1060, I haven't seen 980Ms yet[2016-11-13. : 2:06 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- cool, so around $700 is 950M, $900 is 960M, $1200 is 970M ... xD[2016-11-13. : 2:03 am] Ahli -- will cyber monday have lower prices in EU, too? nude, do you know that? |
