BUT they are not strong games but rather poor performance…
Naturally! My parents have little money and spent 150 euro! 300-400 euro is a lot! Be proud of what you have!
It always depends on the hardware, but you can't hope for laptops for 300 euro-400 euro.
I don't think your parents gamble on anything sophisticated
Yes, but 300-400 euro is a lot of money and for that you also demand that you can play good games on it?
Of course you can.
As an example a Ryzen 2500 / 3500u approx. 400 euro.
LoL, SIMS4, Minecraft, CS: GO etc. Run relatively well.
Even Fortnite or similar runs with less demanding settings.
You won't be able to do that at this price
Not really for 300, but from 400 you can play a lot.
This is quite possible for lower-performing games, but it will be very difficult for large games.
