Thank you. I'll be programming on it in VSCode and am planning on doing some video encoding (in x264, 1080p). Again thanks for all the advice guys, really appreciate it!

I am only able to find ones with ryzen 5 instead of 7 which are with 3050, IDK if that makes any difference on gaming or heavy tasks. I only have experience in desktop Ryzen (I have R5 3600 which is a beast, but on mobile it might be a better idea to go with R7, even if it is an older generation). will do, thanks for the advice.

Well, the thing is that I don't play too demanding games, but I'm planning to buy GTA VI when it finally launches. I am playing these titles specifically: Binding Of Isaac CSGO Grand Theft Auto San Andreas (non remastered) and Multi Theft Auto Grand Theft Auto V and FiveM Rainbow Six: Siege Rocket Legaue And some variety older titles (DOOM original, NFSMW original, NFSU1 and 2) Unfortunately I don't have any more money to spend, 350 000 is the max. Also, I do plan on using an old monitor as a secondary one which is 1280x1024, but it isn't that graphically demanding to run IMO. Regarding battery life: I do plan on working (doing light programming and writing essays) unplugged for more than 3hrs, that's why I am hesitant on the asus.

These are not my only options. I am concerned about the strix's battery life as it has only 60Wh battery. I am not concerned about the size, but it would be nice if the laptop was 15" or more. I don't know much about current specs (what's best for the money, especially in notebooks bc of different TDP etc.) since ryzen 3000 series launched. I have a decent desktop, altough its GPU starts to downperform even in 1080p (rx550 2G), but when I'll go to college I need something somewhat portable to transport as I don't plan to bring it to dorm/apartment.

Hi First of all, sorry if I make in the post or in the replies any grammatical errors as english is not my native language. I am looking to buy a notebook (ASAP, bc HUF is going downhill and I need it for studying reasons aswell). I have been looking at 340-350 000HUF or 1000EUR approx. I have found two https://www.digiprime.hu/laptop/asus-rog-strix-g17-g713ic-70241-elado https://www.digiprime.hu/component/virtuemart/noi-laptopok/lenovo-legion-5-17-73321-elado my question is: should I buy the legion 5 with worse graphics but better CPU or no? Or can ya'll recommend any from this site? (it is the cheapest in Hungary AFAIK) Thanks in advance! [4:43 PM]

HUF is Hungarian Forints. My max budget is $105US, but I want to spend less if possible. I have a Ryzen 5 3600 and a 550W thermaltake psu with no 80+ rating if I know correctly.

I'm trying to change my previous cpu (athlon x4, now I have the ryzen) to 8gb ram. Then I will buy the 970. Thank you.

If you click on "this PC" it shows my current setup. It's: MSI A320M-Pro VD/S RYZEN 5 3600 8GB 3000mhz 128GB ssd with 1TB 7200rpm drive 550w thermaltake cheap 30$ psu. I dont remember asking this question on the forum, nor if I'd seen that post you were mentioning.

Hi! I want to upgrade my current GPU (AMD/ATI RX550 2G) to a more powerful one, but I don't really want to buy a new PSU if not nesecearry. I have this PC now. I was thinking about 2 choices: either an RX 480 8G (AMD stock cooler) for 35 000 HUF (roughly $105US) or a GTX 970 4G (ROG STRIX) for 28 000 HUF (roughly $85US). I know that the RX480 outperforms the 970, but I only want to run about 10 games and do a bit of video editing with it. The game that requires the most performance is RDR2. PS. Sorry if my english is not very good, I hope you can understand what I wanted to say.

Ok thanks

Hi So my problem is that I got a new SSD and a 2Tb HDD, I installed windows on the ssd (I had an old HDD before) and now only the ssd and old hdd show up. I tried everything I could but didnt manage to get it working Pelase help

OK, thanks.

Hi! I have an old server that I got for free and I'm planning on building a new gaming rig. I would have to buy a cooler for my CPU, and I wonder if there is a way to mount the server's cooler on a mainstream board. If there is, is it worth the time (or money) or shall I buy a new one? Sorry if it is not 100% understandable, I am not a native EN speaker

OK, thanks

Okay, thanks. I will replace my PSU.. I was thinking about either the CM V-series or Corsair TX series.. Which is better? Or which would you recommend?
