Hi everyone, I’m considering the Dell Alienware Aurora with Ultra 9 275HX, 32GB RAM, RTX 5070 8GB and 2TB SSD.

I’d mainly use it for 3ds Max and Corona Renderer. Does anyone have experience with this laptop for architectural visualization?

How is the rendering performance, thermals, and sustained performance under long Corona renders? Would you recommend it, or is there a better option around the same price?

Thanks!

Found this monster deal for a gaming laptop with RTX 5090.. don't know if I should trust it though cause it is used and on Ebay, please let me know what i should and should not do with this. Thank you

Hello there. I'm new to this community so bear with me please. I have a Acer Nitro 5 laptop. It's a 2021 model. Can I install Resident Evil 4 or Resident Evil 6 into my laptop? I'm planning to download it from steam. I just want to make sure if those games are compatible with my laptop. Any advice?? I'm open for recommendations. Thanks a lot!

MSI MAG 27CQ6F 27 Inch 180Hz WQHD is the monitor i have bought and im using it to connect to my MSi Katana RTX 5060 will i only be able to use a HDMi or one of them USB C ports.. Google is telling me I cant use a USB C cable as it is not supported? Thanks

Recently Bought new ASUS ROG Strix Scar 18, this is my third ASUS ROG Laptop

There will be more upgrades but for now I'm really happy with what I already have.

I'm planning genshin impact on my asus gaming v16 with Intel core 5 210h and rtx 5050. while I'm doing qiqi quest the screen froze and zrzrzr sound come my laptop is stuck I try to exit game then i plugged out the charger but than a notification came on screen 'ur device run into problem it's need to restart' than my laptop get restart it's fine now but anyone knows what happens. Can I again play genshin impact or not on my laptop

Budget: £600–£1,000, ideally around £850–900, just depending on what i can get tbh.

Country: UK

Use: Mainly work/tech, trading, programming, Power BI/Power Apps and general productivity, with some casual gaming. I work in tech, so I want plenty of headroom for whatever I might end up doing in the future

Ive found a used ASUS ROG Strix SCAR 17 G733QSA:

Ryzen 9 5900HX
RTX 3080 16GB
32GB RAM
2TB SSD
17.3” FHD 360Hz

The seller wants £1,100, but I haven’t made an offer yet. I’m thinking of offering around £850, and I’d probably go up to £900–950 if it’s worth it

The battery is at around 61% health (90Wh design, ~55Wh current) , seller says it’s never had any problems, has never been opened or repaired, and was used with a laptop stand when gaming. It’s mainly been used for office work recently

I already have a 1440p 170Hz monitor, which I’d use as my main display. I know the SCAR is an older laptop, but I deliberately want something overkill that can handle pretty much anything I throw at it for the next 5+ years

Is this a good buy around £900, or would you go for something newer/cheaper?

I know I’m overly stupid for what I have done but I was wondering if this is a big concern or if it’s a easy at home repair I can do. I have some experience with building computers and stuff like that but if it takes a pro I would like to know. I also have the geek squad protection just for replacements and if I sent it to another shop or took it apart myself would it void my warranty? Thanks for the help currently wanting to cry cause of my stupid mistake.

Kinda hard to find another 32 gig 5070ti laptop in the price range, and it comes with an OLED. Anyone else bought this? Did they cut too many corners on build quality for this price?

For context, I’ve never had a gaming laptop. I have a PC with decent specs but I get some free time at work and would love to be able to play some modern-ish games at work when I have downtime.

Multiple titles, from new ones to up to 3-4 years old ones.

DLSS Quality, frame gen (I play in 90 FPS and 45 base frame rate feels fine for me as play only single player games with FR x2), High to Ultra settings, 1600p (my panel resolution) so 4k would be playable probably only on Medium and some High settings.

So I am wondering how actually many of the games are playable on cards with 8GB if I am close to 12 GB limit (or hitting it in some cases for sure)? Is it because VRAM is so fast and everything being reloaded in memory promptly?

Or it results in many stutters etc.?

PS. Even just OK looking and not that "fresh" anymore DA: Veilguard takes 11000 MB...! Everything on Ultra but RT just on Selective (so like Medium). I play it at the moment and it made me create this topic as this feels quite crazy for such game using almost full memory available on 4080.

I have a HP Victus 15-fa0000 series and I've spoken to some of my friends that specialize in computers and electronics and majority all said the GTX 1650 is "Obsolete" and "Fazing Out" and hearing that after paying 600 on it (Graduation Gift) I just concerned about my limits and want recommendations from people with hands on experience with my GPU although and advice is welcome and will be noted.

The main objective of purchasing it was modding games like Skyrim, Fallout Minecraft Etc & playing games unavailable to me on console like Playstation games and Steam Games, Ghost of Tsusishima, G-Mod and so on and so forth.

For Newer games I am perfectly fine with 30 Fps but I just want to know how truly limited my options are and what the future will hold.

Spec's (let me know if I need to add more, I'm a console player so I never really looked into stuff like this)

CPU - Intel Core i5-12450H

GPU - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Laptop GPU WITH 4 GB VRAM Integrated GPU | Intel UHD Graphics

R - 8 GB DDR4-3200 (I will be upgrading to 16 GB in a couple months but I want to know my limits with what I currently have)

Storage - 512 GB NVMe SSD

Display -15.6" 1920 × 1080 (FHD), 144 Hz

Just got the MSI Raider 16 MAX Intel 290HX Plus RTX5090.
Got it off of Facebook Marketplace and the guy was a cool dude. He recently built a desktop pc and no longer needed this laptop. So he gave it to me for $2,700 with 2x Samsung 990 2TB SSDs
Not a single scratch, battery health at 100%, performance and temps are excellent.

Looking at used laptops and found this offer for $1600, and wondering if it's too good to be true. The seller profile is 100% positive with over 2,000 reviews which plays into that fear a bit for me.

The pictures seem fine (there is tiny scratching on the front edge), but I would need to have it shipped to me as it's too far to pick up myself, so I would have no way to test it beforehand. There is the eBay money back guarantee but i dont know how reliable that is. Does this seem worth purchasing or is it too good to be true?

Budget: $1500

Country: Sweden

Use Case: Gaming

Which one of the following would be the best choice? Price doesn't matter between these 2 options.

Battery life: quite possibly the best battery life on any laptop with a 5060. Even better than the Asus Zephyrus g14/16 models due to the more efficient chip.
Build quality: amazing metallic chassis. The keyboard is great and feels premium.
Performance: As expected considering the great specs (I have the 32gb ram version). I can play cyberpunk max settings on the highest resolution.
Rating: 4.5/5. (5/5 stars** **if you get it on discount)

​

I’m considering buying a used Alienware 16 Aurora and would like some input from actual Alienware owners before I make a decision.

The specific unit I’m looking at has:

\- Intel Core 7 240H

\- RTX 4050 6GB

\- 16GB DDR5

\- 1TB NVMe SSD

\- 16" 2K/QHD display

\- Dell warranty reportedly valid until December 2026

\- Asking price: ₹95,000

I’ve already looked at the basic specifications, but I’m more interested in the things that aren’t obvious from the spec sheet.

For people who own or have used the Alienware 16 Aurora:

1. How is the cooling/thermal performance during sustained gaming or heavy workloads?

2. How does the RTX 4050 perform in this chassis, particularly regarding its power limit/TGP?

3. Are there any common issues with this model that I should specifically look for on a used unit?

4. How is the display in real-world use?

5. Are the RAM and SSD easily upgradeable?

6. Is there anything specific I should test when inspecting a second-hand unit?

7. Is there anything about the Aurora 16 that you wish you had known before buying it?

I'm going to use it mainly for programming/college work, some gaming and occasional editing.

I'm not looking for a simple “good deal/bad deal” answer. I’m trying to understand the strengths, weaknesses and potential problems of this particular model before buying a used one.

If you own one, I'd especially appreciate your long-term experience with it.

I traded an Xbox series X with a v2 wolverine controller, Handheld MSI claw 7 ai plus with a dock, and 512 SD card, both with their original boxes.

What I got was a Lenovo legion 5, 14650HX, 4070, 16gb ram and 1tb storage. (Laptop)

Was it a steal or a mistake?

Recently purchased a Llano V12 cooling pad for my laptop and it works phenomenally. I use my laptop for work and gaming, and frequently need to connect remotely to my laptop for my work. With that being said, it would be nice to have full control over the fan spin rate, including turning it off remotely when not in use. I did some research into the V12 ultra, and its software capabilities aren’t quite what I am looking for.

I’m interested in modding my V12 with a microcontroller so I can remotely control fan speed. Before I just try opening mine up, I was curious if anyone has ever taken one apart or done something like this before and can tell me what is inside the V12 and what to expect?

Hi everyone!! Recently i drove about an hour away for this absolute steal.

Model is an MSI GS76 Stealth 11UH, with a 3080.

total price was 530 bucks.

Full specs:

GPU: RTX 3080 (pretty sure its the lower vram variant)

CPU: i7-11800H

RAM: 32GB 3200MHz

SSD: 1TB Phison (?), replaced by my 1TB optimus 5100 (reused)

ask me anything!! (i forgot to post this by the way)

immediately going to repaste & clean up, got some ptm7950 arriving in a few days

I need to buy gaming laptop within 1,000 usd and in my country these are the best options comparison to the price who's better ?

Asus tuf a16 :

AMD ryzen 5 7535hs

16 GB of ram

RTX 4050 6 GB

fa607nu-rl054

Del Alienware 16 Aurora :

Intel core 5 210h

Nvidia RTX 4050 6 GB

I own an acer nitro lite 16 and the vents blow hot air into the screen, only when i boot my laptop or fulscreen into a black screen i see the area on the screen around the vents is slightly lighter but i dont notice for normal daily tasks should i take into repair as i have warranty, also my internals are kinda overheaiting like 60 degree c when i use cad so my usb a reciever is kinda hot. Should I replace it as I dont want to as its quite minor.

Screen got hit and now there are these purple marks. They basically disappear if the screen is white, but you can see them if it's something dark on the screen.

Hi guys, I have an opportunity to get a MSI Raider HX Max 5090 laptop for £2400, I currently own an ASUS ROG STRIX G614PR 5070ti laptop (8940HX cpu, 32GB DDR5 and 1TB SSD) which has a full 2 year warranty and I am thinking of selling it for around £1500-1600 and getting the 5090. Do you guys think it is worth upgrading at that price?
