So I had a laptop with Intel pentium silver n5030, intel uhd 605 graphics and 8gb ddr4 ram and it struggled to run Far Cry 2 from 2008 and mafia 2 at 720p low but here is are my new pc specs Intel core i5 3470, rx 470 4gb and 8gb ddr3 ram and I know it’s not perfect but it’s so much better than laptop I had, I played read dead redemtion 2 1080p high to medium settings at average 45 fps.
Woo hoo! Congratulations. Any improvement is great, don’t let naysayers tell you anything. In the end it’s about being able to play the games you want to (I spend the equivalent of €1500 on my PC and play minecraft 😂)
You can always make incremental upgrades… first limit you will probably encounter is RAM which you can change to either 8GBx2 (better) or 4GBx4 (Not as good but cheaper since you just add 2 modules).
When you have the financial ability to do a full upgrade in a few years, then you will get several generations ahead. [email protected] will be your friend. And if you need more games but have no €, make sure to get the Epic freebies when good games are released there.
