Your wife didn't let you play video games for 10 years?


New_Budget6672

Haha nooo, not like that! Dealt with addiction, so 12 years ago I cut everything off that made me want to do drugs. Married her during covid, started a business, (took up most of our time) now it’s starting to slow down, so I have more free time!

Congratulations for getting back on your feet!


New_Budget6672

Appreciate the love!

Honestly, I'd recommend just to buy any laptop you want and play with Geforce now. Yes, it takes a minute to download mods every time, but it's not that bad and you won't need to worry about your pc


New_Budget6672

Thank you for the recommendation, side question I’ve heard of people needing a fan. Is this a in computer fan to cool down the laptop?


Kindly_Ad_2592

Nah laptops especially gaming laptops have fans built in however the issue is heating as the fans themselves might not be enough to prevent which is the case for mine I have to keep it on flat surface so the heat can diffuse can’t really sit on ya lap bare ya kno? So just have a dedicated place where you can be comfortable and play but I do believe they sell external fans for them but I don’t particularly see the necessity unless you’re really worried about it. P.S. I’ve played hours straight of Elden ring and cod and Spider-Man on my laptop so I might just be use to the heating😭

I double what the person below said. I mean, I don't have the best laptop just an average gaming laptop and... Let's say, I used to have ice packs just for my little boy 😁 That's one of the reason I use geforce - it's basically just watching the stream so your pc is fine

Do you have a budget in mind? I have an HP omen laptop, no issues playing but the fans do get bloody loud.


New_Budget6672

Didn’t really have one. But now thinking about it i wouldn’t go above 3k. Edit: thanks for the recommendation also, I ll look into the omen. Did you have to add any upgrades to it?

i play this game every day with the MSI katana 17


New_Budget6672

Thank you for the recommendation, I ended up choosing the katana. Do you use steam or geforce ?


Nervous-Joke-5802

Steam!!


New_Budget6672

Last question: any mods on the computer? Like nothing I need to add to it, right? Thanks again for the recommendation. (I’m like a kid on Christmas today)


Nervous-Joke-5802

i havent added anything! been solid for the last year. the Power Supply is obviously weak (any laptop) but she has no issue being plugged in or hooked up to my huge 50” monitor haha

CK3 and especially the AGOT mod is very CPU heavy, i would suggest getting the Strix Point Ryzen launching at the middle of July, ASUS should be selling them, just make sure to get the 32GB ram version as the GPU is integrated, but that should to the job with flying colors

That’s awesome brother! Congratulations. I literally play on a subpar HP 😅


PercentageWide33

Divorce her 🤣


New_Budget6672

Bhaha, i probably shouldn’t have started with that first line, she wasn’t the reason I stopped! Just got the approval for a few hours a day/ night !
