Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I remember and you were probably right on. This one popped up a bit later and might have been worth mentioning since the thread had a couple of new thoughts posted.
MSI not so good, Varmint? I mentioned having one, a GE70 last more than ten years but maybe I got lucky or the quality has declined recently. The one from the initial post looks, feels and performs very nicely.
I see an HP Omen model with the exact same system specs is exactly the same...
Yeah, well sort of. Got a couple of high dollar rifles I don't want to compromise the budget on.
Close enough was the goal. I just wanted to avoid an obvious mistake but it seems that any of those machines will get the job done. I'm glad I got some friendly advice. Cheers, guys.
OK, many thanks to you guys. The "value" of the 3070 machine seems to be the consensus, is only a little more and has the longest legs in all likelihood so I ordered it (even though it's probably more that what's needed for that screen).
I've had to replace batteries for MSI and it was usually a bit of a hunt on amazon or ebay. Though the one MSI gaming laptop I've owned lasted 10 years and was retired (and did not actually die).
Are you recommending the leftmost and the overriding concern is the parts replacement?
Thanks a lot. We're not looking to max out the latest titles. I was unsure about the 11th vs 12th gen for gaming and whether the 3070 vs 3060 was the bigger gain. I appreciate your help.
My wife and I want to buy our son a laptop for gaming at home and for homework. It doesn't need to be bleeding edge but decent performance would be nice so for these price points is there one or all we should avoid or choose over the others?
Thank you for any help you can provide. He's 11...
