I would like to buy a new laptop and have found a very good offer. I would also like to use the laptop to play games (simulators, vll.Gta and so), but seems to be a bit weak with the graphics card. I do not know so well with something and wanted to ask if this built-in would be sufficient. I do not have to run the games on top graphics, liquid games would be enough.
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 4GB
No idea where the others claim that. But this video card easily ranges from medium to high in most games. 4GB memory are synonymous enough unless you want to have VR.
Okay thanks for your answer
GTA is a bit older, that should be fine. Most simulations also, from the graphical side, however, many simulations (economic / city simulations, strategy games) also need a lot of CPU power.
For more modern titles like the latest Assassin's Creed or similar. However, this graphics card would only produce good frame rates on low settings.
Sorry but would contradict this statement a bit because the GTX 1050 is no longer soo good 😅 would look at your place again ;-)
(Do not think that it will stay with the little listed games… That's why my statement)
In contrast to the new graphics cards yes that's clear. Nevertheless, if you have limited financial resources and want to gamble on funds is the top.
Have worked on my answer ;-)
If he really just wants to play the few games you are 100% right.
I'm sorry my answer should not come over provocatively.
What does CPU performance mean?
So the laptop has an i7 and 16GB of RAM.
Um, I did not record that too. XD All right haha
So we would talk about the desktop PC version I would say that this is the beginner gaming Graka. Is and feasible for most games on FullHD with medium to high settings. But a friend of mine also has it in his laptop and he always plays the agricultural simulator. But when I watch it, you can hardly call it playing, it's more like a hangover. But that could also be because the LS requires a lot of memory, especially if you have loaded any mods.
I7? And further? How much GHz?
Yes, the i7 is the CPU. In short, the CPU has to calculate what's going on in the game, and the GPU has to calculate what it looks like. In most games, you have only a handful of characters, so the CPU has not so much to do here, and it depends mainly on the GPU. In complex simulations (such as Anno, Cities Skylines, etc.) where there are a lot of units and very much happening at the same time, the CPU just has to run pretty fast to figure out what's going on. Because otherwise the GPU does not know what to show.
There are over 150 different i7 CPUs, so specifying the model number (e.g., I7-8750H) would be helpful.
What kind of simulations do you want to play? Simulators such as Of course, railroad or truck sims are not as demanding for the CPU as the economic simulators mentioned.
First of all thank you for taking the time and informing me in such detail?
Here's the data:
15.6 "/ Full HD IPS 60Hz) Gaming Laptop (Intel Core i7-8750H, 128GB SSD + 1TB HDD, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 4GB, Windows 10 Home 64) Black
The laptop we sold as a gaming laptop.
I would like to play simulators like Emergency 2020 or 2014 (which even ran on my 400 euro laptop, and Flashing Lights, or Notruff 112 (which so far ran smoothly on the 400 euro laptop).
Otherwise I would like to play games like GTA, Ark, Ghost Recon and so on which were not possible until now.
GTA would have to run properly, ARK probably on lower settings. The whole simulators should all run quite well as well. The older Ghost Recon should run, but the newer Ghost Recon Breakpoint will be very tight.
Can definitely be described as a gaming laptop. The CPU is quite strong, the GPU is, as described, suitable for many games, but rather at the lower end. I might have looked for a model with a slightly better GPU (for example, 1060 or 1660 6GB) and then even accepted a weaker CPU and / or less RAM. Most games are pretty good with 8GB. The 4GB graphics memory of the 1050 would probably be full faster than 8GB of RAM. Optimal of course would be a model in which you can retrofit RAM. Then you could install even more RAM later, if necessary.
I have now found another laptop which could still fit in my price range:
HP OMEN 15-dc1015ng 41.69 cm (15.6 in / Full HD 60Hz) Laptop (Intel Core i7-9750H, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 512GB SSD, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 4GB GDDR5, Windows 10 Home) Black
this would cost 1170 euro compared to the other (999 euro)
Both CPU and GPU are again a good deal stronger here. However, I would like to put more value on the GPU as I said. A 1060 or 1660 would have significantly more graphics performance, the CPU of the 8750H would actually be quite enough, so the even stronger 9750H actually not necessary.
Thank you for everything,
I'm now well informed and can now order one of the two laptops.
I hope to be able to turn to you for computer and gaming questions.
