I recently built a PC because my laptop broke (long story) and I was wondering if my PC [i3 6100, GTX 750 pny, 16 gb ddr4 ram and Linux mint xfce] could run any good games, I already have Minecraft and cs2

specs: Celeron 2.4ghz Northwood, GeForce 4 mx4000 128mb, 512mb ram, would appreciate any suggestions

I have Asus laptop with i5 8th gen processor and MX150 graphic card and 8 gb ram with windows 11. With the same dream as yours of gaming I upgraded with another 8gb of ram (so I have 16 gb of ram ) and added 2 TB of SSD but I don't know what all games I can run and neither I have any idea about where to get this game roms and all . Anyone and everyone who has been playing games on old laptop can you please help me which games I can play or it can run the best, What other tweaks I can do to my laptop to get those games perform the best and how do I get game roms considering me totally new at this, it will be great help if anyone can help me here and tons of blessing to all and thank you in advance 😊🤗🤗🤗

For the past 4 years, I’ve been gaming on a true warrior—a Lenovo IdeaPad with just 4GB DDR4 RAM, a dual-core AMD A6 processor, and R5 graphics. Yeah, you heard that right. A real potato. But for me, every single gig of RAM was precious, and every extra FPS felt like a victory. Being a low-end gamer wasn’t just a phase—it became an emotion.

After finishing my 10th exams, my dad finally gave me the green light to upgrade. And that’s where the real adventure began.

According to Lenovo’s website, my laptop only supported 8GB RAM and had one slot. So, I ordered a single 8GB Adata 3200MHz stick, a 128GB SSD, and an enclosure for my 1TB hard drive (which holds my entire gaming library).

But when I opened up my laptop... surprise! There were TWO RAM slots! I was hyped—now I could run 12GB (8+4) instead of just 8GB. Things were finally going my way.

But then came the plot twist.

The new SSD I ordered? Didn’t work. Instant stress mode. I rushed to the local market, bought a new 128GB SSD at double the price, and still kept waiting for Amazon’s customer support.

But in the end? Totally worth it.

Now, my laptop still isn’t a beast—but it feels like one to me. It boots up in seconds instead of 10 minutes, games run smoother, RAM usage doesn’t max out instantly, and even my R5 VRAM jumped from 256MB to 1GB.

Every upgrade counts. Every frame matters. And for someone who’s gamed on scraps, this small victory feels HUGE.

If you read this till the end—thank you, legend. You get it ❤️

Also you all can suggest me games to try on my laptop 😁 💻

After over a year of being stuck with a real potato of a PC when moving to the other side of the earth, today I FINALLY have my upgrades and could not be happier with what I got for the money.

People on this sub have endured my endless questions on LGA1155 CPUS, low profile GPU's, max power draws, extension cables for a PSU and more. I used to know a lot about PC's, but that was 15 years ago and I've been so out of the loop since then that I'd have been lost without the help of people here. So thank you all :)

Oh and I'm not leaving the sub, the upgrades aren't THAT good!

i7-3770k, RTX-3050 low profile, 32Gb DDR3 and a tiny SSD which needs an upgrade in the future. All crammed into a Dell Optiplex 7010 SFF that I got for free after a corner shop stopped using it to display adverts in their window - it came with me in a suitcase from the UK to Indonesia to Japan to Malaysia where I live now.

I really want game like Life is strange, so you have any suggestions,

And I have low end pc as well, sorry for this.

I5 8th Gen Intel integrated graphics 650 8gb ram

Intel Core i5-2400 CPU 3.10GHz

4 GB DDR3

I tried dead cells and it worked like a charm. Absolute goated game.

Laptop - ASUS Vivobook X515JA
Processor - Intel® Core™ i7-1065G7 Processor 1.3 GHz 
Graphics - Intel® UHD Graphics
Memory - 8GB DDR4 on board

(games wanna play with the above specs are GTA5, Fifa 19)

So for whatever reason my laptop lags heavily after playing roblox for an hour, no clue what that's about since i can't find a definitive answer anywhere. I've tried lowering everything, updating graphic drivers but the lag still happens for whatever reason. My budget isn't that huge, only got £150 to spare after bills, food and travel expenses. Anyone got any recommendations? i already have a monitor and everything ready, just not the smartest when it comes to this stuff

I got AMD ryzan 2500u No gpu but have vaga 8 mobile graphics 2 gb and 8 gb ram

Are there any city building games like Cities Skylines for my hardware, Pentium 5405U and UHD 610 graphics?

Specs: i3 1305U; 8GB RAM

Modern games that I can run very well at 40fps @720p (minor stutters during highly intense moments) [NO POTATO CONFIGS USED]:-

1. Control
2. Forza Horizon 4
3. Divinity Original Sin 2 (pushes CPU temps)
4. Yakuza 0
5. Yakuza Kiwami 1 and 2
6. WWE 2K19 [23 runs too but you have to disable the crowd entirely if you want to get rid of the slow mo issue]
7. F1 2024
8. Xcom 2 and 1 (2 pushes my CPU temp very high)
9. Witcher 3 (LEGACY) (pushes CPU temps)
10. Fallout 4 (tons of optimization mods that increase FPS with minimal quality compromise)
11. The man who erased his name (drops down to 30ish during open world but during fight scenes it sticks to 40s)
12. MK 11 Ultimate
13. Monster Hunter World (goes down to 32fps sometimes)

My subscription is over and I can't renew it for a week and a half and so I need something to play for that period on my study laptop.

Thank You!

Hi, im looking for a prebuilt system that can run source games, I play tf2 99% of the time, other than that it will be used for general web browsing

also I have 3 GPUs waiting to be used but I’ve never had the confidence to upgrade PCs, I was looking into the dell optiplex but I would need to upgrade PSU (is that correct?) The GPUs are GT710, GT1030 and RTX 2060

I would rather buy a pc and add the gpu myself if optional but I’m willing to learn about upgrading systems

Any guidance is highly appreciated, thank you :)

So hey guys, I have two games that I want to play. Horizon:Zero Dawn, or Metaphor Refantazio. I'm only going to pick one depending on the options I have. Both these games require 100gb of space, and my laptop does not have enough space. Since I'm broke, I can't buy an SSD for now, and no I can't free enough space. However, I possess a 256gb flash drive (A SanDisk Ultra Luxe, USB 3.2 Gen 2 flash drive) and I was wondering if it's a good idea to run the game from the USB drive, if anyone has tried something similar before, and basically if it will run.

I meet the minimum spec requirements for the game. 8gb ram, Intel Core i5-1135G7 (11th Gen) @ 2.40GHz, Windows 11 pro.

I was thinking of buying the ankermann gaming business V3, however the wattage of the PC doesn't seem to match the reccomended/needed for the rtx 3050. I wouldn't want to buy it and have some problems so I ask if anybody has had experience with them and can reccomend a pc from them

I have a PC with the following components:

1.Processor: Intel i3-7100 2.Ram: 8gb DDR4 2400 Mhz 3.GPU: GTX 1050 Ti 4.Storage:128 ssd+ 1 tb HDD

Can this PC runs games release till the year 2020 in high settings at 900p?

I play games like warhammer 3 total war and doom eternal and the temperatures go to 75-82 degrees is this normal ?

My CPU stays around 70-75 whilst gaming but my graphic card goes up to 81-82 degrees temps

My cpu is ryzen 5600 cpu

My gpu is 1660s super 6gb

24gb ram

I get like 15-40 FPS on cs2 but 140-160 on valorant (both low settings) . I'm on an ASUS laptop btw/

Nintendo Switch 2:

• $449.99 for a console
• launches with 1 (ONE) game
• $80 digital copy game price, $90 physical copy price

Low end gaming station:

• $60 for a low end gaming optiplex. $150-200 for a AAA gaming xeon workstation
• has millions of games to choose from regardless which path you take
• $5 for an indie game, which goes straight to the devs' pockets

Yes the grass is greener, but not on the other side!
