I currently have a hp laptop that is several years old. 4 gigs of ram, amd integrated graphics, e2 processor, and a 19 inch tv that im not even sure supports full hd. The laptop cannot run regular minecraft. It can only run the windows 10 version. All other games I've tried to play, tf2, cs:go, the forest, etc. all run really choppy. I am terrible with saving money. For example, I just got paid a week ago today and I already only have about $1.50 in my bank account, so saving up is not really plausible. I will upload a video of my computer tomorrow to show

Also, the old family computer I WAS using wouldn't post no matter what I tried, so that is in storage. (Don't know why). That could barely run minecraft back in 2012 when I first found the game. It wouldn't even let me upgrade to windows 10. Anyways, I would love to win this, but I understand if I don't. I have been wanting to meet Linus, Luke, and the rest of LTT for quite a while. Thanks for the opportunity.

#ROGRigReboot

Sorry for the terrible quality it was 1 in the morning at the time.

 

Specs:

CPU: Intel i5-4200U

GPU: Integrated Intel HD 4400

Ram: 8gb DDR3 1600 MHz

Storage: 1 tb hdd

 

It's the Asus portable aio pt2001

if you want to look it up for yourself. The only part that I like about it is the fact that it has a HDMI in.

 

Games:

Unfortunately because the computer can't handle the titles I enjoy very well I only own 1 game at the moment GTA V which hits on the lowest settings at 800x600 (the lowest resolution it would let me go) a max fps of 25 with the average so low below that that I'm far too disappointed to share it. (Mostly because I don't have anything to record and show average fps because the built in benchmark doesn't tell you)

 

Story:

(sorry this is so long btw but you guys asked for it) Imagine a young boy age 11 asking his parents for Christmas "can I get a computer" "no you don't need one" a year later again same answer ANOTHER year another disappointment (much like my fps lol) FINALLY 14 years of age they agree. The boy shows his parents the acceptable computer but they say nay for the reason of "you don't need a computer for games it's meant for school work". The parents take the pc choosing into their own hands and purchase him an Asus (ha) portable aio pt2001 which at the time was great. It's been 4ish years since then and the pt2001 is basically just a mind numbing pit of pc depression as it struggles to function. I'm now in my last year of high school I'm going to be off to college living that adult life but I'm not going to have a useable pc to do anything with as every penny I earn goes straight into the $150,000 money pit of repaying loans forever leaving me with about 45 cents and a subway coupon worth of cash to build a new useable workstation. I have probably entered about 3 dozen pc giveaways in the last couple months. I'm desperate and this is the opportunity for me to get the help I so desperately desire.

 

Creativity: *sprinkles some rgb* but seriously though it's 2 am at the time of writing this so it's in no way flashy or creative I lose in that category. Even if it wasn't so late I'd still lose but hey *sprinkles more rgb*

I have intel i5 6400 cpu gtx 950 1tb of hard drive and my psu is makeing loud like a jet noise now.

Games I play are Cs go, Gta 5, h1z1 kotk, Arma 3 and alot more. Cs go I play on low graphics to get 300 fps. Gta 5 I play on medium settings to get ~60fps and h1z1 kotk on low settings to get ~70fps.

I think my pc is kinda new but I would like to have better gpu and cpu for games and I also dont have ssd. And with my psu is something wrong. I bought this pc for 500$ in 2015.
