@AppleRepairLady If your son is planning on participating in any of the 4 official tournaments (Rocket League, Rainbow 6 Siege, Overwatch, and League of Legends), then I would suggest making sure the PC he games on will meet and exceed the minimum system requirements for these games, and preferably at the recommended specs . Otherwise, just make sure whichever game he has in his collection he will be playing at the event will be supported by the PC he can bring.

Rainbow 6 Siege System Requirements: https://support.ubi.com/en-us/faqs/000024693/Minimum-Requirements-PC-RSIX7/

League of Legends System Requirements: https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/201752654-Minimum-and-Recommended-System-Requirements
Other games/events mentioned by Dreamhack as popular at the events include build-offs in Minecraft and Terraria, private free-for-all servers in PUBG and Fortnite, and 32v32 brawls in Quake and UT.

Your gaming laptop will have no problem playing any of the 4 listed official tournament games.
Hey, I'm traveling from the states via plane and having a nightmare of a time figuring out how to bring a gaming monitor for BYOC. Is there a monitor rental service like other dreamhacks or am I just going to have to figure something out?
Also, how will the security work for the BYOC area? Are we allowed to bring Kensington Cables and Locks with us to secure our PCs or will there be adequate security to have peace of mind to leave our PCs behind without anyone messing with it?
Hey, I am an Apple Certified Mac Technician. I am from Virginia in the US. I just went into Apple's Global Service Exchange and I can see all the parts you need. I can't just send you the parts, but I have been watching your videos since you were still filming at the old house. It would be my honor to work on your Mac Pro. If you sent the unit to us, we could definitely fix it and send it back to you.
