Message: [QUOTE="kbcinharoxa, post: 410394, member: 908963"] So yeah, I’ve been “"""""""suffering"""""""” with my laptop — as you can tell by the huge quotation marks I used. And no, it’s not [I]real[/I] suffering, you know? But anyway.::sailor-embarrassed My laptop is a [B]Dell Inspiron 15 3520[/B] with a [B]12th-gen Core i5[/B] and [B]8 GB of RAM[/B]. I won’t lie: it’s good. Like, [B]REALLY good[/B]. I play pretty much everything on it, and it’s the machine where I managed to run [B]DISPATCH[/B] and all [B]The Walking Dead games by Telltale[/B]. Yeah, they’re older games, but still — I also use this laptop for basically [I]everything[/I] without major issues. Sure… sometimes it freezes or stutters, but hey, [B]every laptop does that at some point[/B], and that’s fine. And YES, before buying it, I already knew about its flaws. I’ve been using it since [B]July 2025[/B], and honestly… wow. It’s still very much alive, and that makes me happy. As a kid, I was [I]never[/I] careful with my stuff, but this one? It’s been well taken care of. I even named it [B]“J.A.R.V.I.S.”[/B] — and no, I won’t even explain the reference ::megadancebaby I’m planning to buy [B]more RAM[/B] for it. From what I’ve seen, there’s this whole [B]dual-channel[/B] thing, so yeah — if everything goes right, this thing is gonna [B]FLY[/B] XD Now, about it overheating… which is one of the things I saw people complain about the most… Yeah. It overheats [B]LIKE HELL[/B]. I was literally using it on my lap, [B]JUST READING[/B], and suddenly it got hot out of nowhere. Like… [I]“congratulations, your eggs are now hard-boiled”[/I] levels of hot ::omgdoom Anyway, I made this post to talk about my experience with it and to ask about [B]your hardware[/B] too. Feel free to evaluate mine — was it a good purchase? I’m not sure… but honestly, it was between this one, a notebook with an [B]Intel Celeron[/B], or the [I]lower-tier[/I] version of this one with a [B]Core i3[/B]. So yeah. What do you think?::surprised-pikachu(i have a photo of Jarvis on my STATUS) [IMG alt="doma GIF"]https://media1.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPThhNDcyYzQ2Nmloamgzam9uMjMzNDdxaTM4eXJ0YjJsZnZuNWZ5OXpycDR1a3ZrNiZlcD12MV9naWZzX3NlYXJjaCZjdD1n/beFz7ODP7OD8Q/200.gif[/IMG] [automerge]1768934538[/automerge] lol, I just realized I didn’t put [B]ANYTHING retro[/B] in this post. Totally forgot, but well… here we go. So, I’m having problems emulating [B]Conker’s Bad Fur Day[/B], and now I’m wondering: is it [B]the laptop[/B], or is it [B]the game[/B]? I set [B]EVERYTHING[/B] to the lowest possible settings and it still stutters. Meanwhile, [B]Banjo-Kazooie[/B] runs at a perfect [B]60 FPS[/B]. (yeah yeah, it’s a meme, relax) [/QUOTE]
