Holy Crap I have a laptop

My family has owned several computers/laptops over the years. They all were made before 2007 I'm pretty sure and they all suck. I think we had one Toshiba branded laptop with an outdated Intel core but the rest are outdated AMD cores.

I finally bought a laptop for myself and my world has been rocked.

I made sure I got the best I could reasonable save up for. After 4 months of work, and $1500 saved, I bought an MSI Leopard GP63. This thing is pretty high end for $1500. We're talking:

- 6 Intel i7 cores
- 15.6" screen
- 16 GB memory
- 1 TB HDD
- A customizable lightup keyboard (which isn't a big deal but i think it's fun)
-1920×1080p screen (4k is overrated)
-NVIDIA GTX 1060 graphics card

I mean, for those of you who own good computers this may seem pretty standard but coming from the computers I've lived with my whole life, this is crazy. The fact that I can download a 3D game and it works at max graphic settings at 60FPS is dreamlike.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go play NES games in HD

No SSD?
At that price they should at least put in a 120GB m.2 SSD for the OS.
Otherwise pretty nice specs. You should look into if it supports m.2 and stick a SSD in there.

    I know the pricing of electronics nowadays isn't "how much it actually costs" but "how much we can get away with", but putting up a poll is just cynical.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nah I'm getting value creep again. I look at a $50 console "but for just a few more dollars you could get XYZ" and I end up considering the Steam Deck.

    The big leap in all things tech is when carbon based chips start hitting.

    Longer battery life cooler temps and faster! What's not to like lol (probably expensive as hell)
