Sure thing! To determine if the laptop suits your gaming needs, please provide its specifications or model. Look for a strong GPU, capable CPU, and good cooling. Technology advances, so keep future game requirements in mindIs this laptop any good? I play WOW, Farcry6, Ark Survival, Minecraft, Grand Theft Auto V, and others. Can I play AAA games on this laptop? Will it last me for a while before needing to upgrade? I know you can't upgrade the CPU or GPU. I could get it to 1,047.00 before tax.
Thanks
I put a link in my comment.Sure thing! To determine if the laptop suits your gaming needs, please provide its specifications or model. Look for a strong GPU, capable CPU, and good cooling. Technology advances, so keep future game requirements in mind
I run a 3060 in my current laptop and it still handles AAA titles just fine so I'm sure that 4060 will be fine for a couple years at least. As said above it doesn't max everything out but at settings above mid level but not maxed I get 60-100 fps depending on game.
One thing to be aware of though is the the fan noise. Just regular usage mine is almost silent but when gaming it does get pretty loud.
Just be aware that the GPU is not the same as the desktop version, in addition to running on substantially lower power. Consider reviews for more specific details. https://www.tomshardware.com/news/nvidia-rtx-4070-4060-4050-mobile-benchmarks-die-sizes. Not to say that the mobile 4060 is bad, but if you are looking to run full resolution at 165 fps, you might need a little more grunt.
Thanks. I'm aware that the gpus are not the same as desktop. I'm still running an RX 480 4 GB in my mine. The GPU and case are the last two things I need to upgrade. Probably won't be doing that for a while.Just be aware that the GPU is not the same as the desktop version, in addition to running on substantially lower power.
