No, desktop

Ok

How much was it and how good is it

Well prebuilt, and I think I paid maybe $900 for it not counting the monitor. Imo it's good, but that's just my opinion lol

I've heard the cpu is probably weaker than it could've been for the price but whatever

Do you play any video games on it or use blender

That sucks

I only do X-Plane as far as games, and have never done blender

If you could X-Plane as a game haha

Hmm

What CPU do you have

^

i5-9400f

Depends on how you play it I suppose. Sim enthusiasts get uptight about the difference between sim and game

Hello Smoky

Hello

I play mainly as a sim since I am an aspiring pilot haha

Anyway I was asking because my laptop is a piece of crap I'm planning on upgrading but wanted to get some ideas on what I should buy

What’s your budget

Budget makes the difference

And laptop or desktop

I would like it to be $1,000 but the longer I wait the more I can spend on it

I would prefer a laptop

Also, gaming/high demand programs or just regular laptop things whatever that might be. Sorry for so many questions lol

I would like a laptop that I can game on

Idrk anything about laptops so I'll let smoky handle this xd

I’d have to look more into it, but for around $1000 I believe you can get a decent gaming laptop with a 1650 GPU 8-16 gb of ram

Processor idk maybe a Ryzen 5 3600 or whatever the intel equivalent is

Laptops you also have to be careful because lots of them come with barely any storage like just 256 gb SSD or whatever

Okay thanks! Would you recommend me waiting until I can spend more money on one?

Definitely^^

Ok lol

Possibly. I believe $1200-1300 is a pretty sweet spot for in between mid and high gaming end laptops

Covid might have changed that though idk

Because of demand

And supply

Yep

Just don’t pay 1300 for a 1650 super

Lots of $1300 with 1650s

That’s what we call over priced

Also recommend at least 16gb of ram for best performance with modern games/multi tasking.
