Hi all
Like most we don't currently have much money but one of my sons is using our desktop (ryzen 5 1600, Nvidia 1060) for online school work and then minecraft afterwards and the other is having to use an old laptop for both the same. He mentioned even in classes it has issues and in gaming it is poor.
So we've tried to find money from here there and everywhere and thought we'd get something with a dedicated GPU for about £500 all in but obviously I'm behind the times and i can't get much at all that will meet both needs. Also, it's been a long time since i built a PC and even thinking about installing windows scares me.
So i wondered if i bought a new laptop maybe would that be easier and I'd get more for my money.
I found the - Asus TUF gaming fa506ii Nvidia gtx 1650 ti, 8gb, 15.6" 144hz Ryzen r5-4600h - which was more than we wanted to spend.
Any thoughts and recommendations welcome.
Cheers, Marc
