k5blazer454 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Alright guys i do Automotive tuning into the side and i use a lot of space saving files and logs but i also do gaming. ET mainly.. i’m looking for an all around good laptop, good battery life, performance, and nice amount of storage. i would sacrifice battery life for performance! what’s the best brand? model? processor? how much ram? i mean i’d love to have something that’s over built. i got a pos walmart laptop because i sold my gaming setup for tuning. here’s the requirements for the program i use.

Leader RedBaird Posted December 2, 2020 Leader Share Posted December 2, 2020 I got an ASUS gaming laptop a few months ago, as a backup for my desktop computer. 🤞:crossed fingers: OOPs! I got a 15-inch screen, a bit small for my weak eyes! OOPs! I didn't even think about a camera! 📹 I had to buy a camera to "be at" my Tele-Health video-appointment today! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I could hook it up to my monitor, along with the keyboard and mouse, if it comes to that. Otherwise, it is a lot more modern than this desktop that I build some 9 years ago. I have not mastered its "laptop culture" yet, nor have I backed up any files to it! 🐌 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
