@@Commenterererthat is simply not true, I know someone still using a 1060 3gb just fine, people are just expecting too much out of older cards but they’re absolutely still usable on games
I bought a gaming laptop beginning of this year, a MSI GS65 Slim Stealth that comes with a i7 7850H and a GTX 1070 for $200 only problem is that it needs a new battery.
I agree, though it looks sketch but he gives off a professional look, I had just came across the video searching for "custom laptop" tryna pimp out my 2010 gateway that I threw razor stickers on to make it look like a gaming laptop lmao😅
My buddy basically bought one of these (ASUS GL702VM) when it was a newer laptop a few years ago, he used it for like, less than 2 months, got a girlfriend and wanted to sell it to me since he no longer had the time to use it. I got it from him for a little more than 200 bucks cheaper than when he bought, so I basically got a fresh gaming laptop for 25% off. He then broke up with his girlfriend 2 months later… and wanted to buy it back, but I kept it lol. Don’t worry he built a good PC a couple months later with all the cash I imagine he was no longer spending on his girlfriend. I still have it, and it’s honestly still a pretty solid machine. I dunno how much I paid for it back then but I’d imagine it was around 700-800$ since this thing was selling for 1k+ in most shops back then.
@@lemonadexbubbles it doesn’t matter it’s very misleading. I understand it’s a sponsorship but he could’ve said if it was used and you didn’t make a big Point he never said it was used or new so yea
Mine has 6 years too, but for some reason, the processor is stuck at 1.8 ghz while gaming. I guess something broke inside, because i tried everything in the settings and nothing has changed.
@@luisapaza317 I never use it unplugged 😂 but if I do it is for like reading documents or stuff and it lasts about 1hr and a half. I don't really care anyway, as long as it works plugged in. It's a gaming laptop not an office one.
Damn, I had one of those. The only issue I had was the horrendous heating issues and thermal throttling. I had to get a regular fan right next to it to even have manageable frames.
You Can just buy cooler for laptop, its so good really, m'y laptop went from burning to cold i just bought a 24$ you put Ur pc on it, i thing a lot of gamer didn't thought about it but when u buy it you're so happy
I have this exact laptop, and I gotta say it did me well for 5 five years. It stopped working unfortunately but I’m planning on finding a way to fix it. Also, if you are going to buy this laptop, make sure you clean the fans once a year so the performance doesn’t go down a lot.
10 years ago this laptop didn’t exist, also the starting price for these specs was $800 I believe, at least I got myself one with similar specs for $900 back then
17 inch for a laptop is absolutely massive, I remember my old gaming laptop was 15 inch and it looked huge to me, I can't imagine using this behemoth, even if my current monitor is 24 inch
i have a slightly newer version of this laptop, its really solid and probably the best laptop ive ever owned... BUT holy shit theyre loud so keep that in mind. you will NEED headphones while gaming and sometimes just by browsing the web.
1. People need to understand that this is used 2. An i7 7700 is extremely old and a 1060 wont be able to take you far nowadays 3. you wont be able to find a strong gaming laptop for only 300 dollars unless if you want to look for used versions. 4. I feel bad for the little timmy's out there thinking this is really good. saw a comment just now that says they are going to get it. Dont. its a waste of money and you can find much better items
@@byletheisner50061060 is stop very usable what are you talking about? 😂 just depends what games you want to play and eBay settings what want to play them on. Cs go and valorant will run fine
as someone with a gtx 1050, i5-9300HF laptop, this is complete bs, this laptop is definitely more capable than mine and im running every game i throw at it with a few stutters here and there sure, but most of the times its smooth gameplay if u put it on low graphics, its still very much playable, i could imagine this laptop doing slightly better than mine because the specs are slightly better
Im honestly dumbfounded how a gf63 thin gtx 1650, intel I5 10500h 8 gigs of ram and a 60hz refresh rate laptop is only 70$ less than this(~95$ including 16gb ram upgrade) (while on sale idk how long it will last)
I use this laptop! It honestly the best laptop ive ever had its a tank on games and overall an amazing laptop ive been using it for 3 years now and it is still so good!
I got the gl503ge brand new 4 years ago for a 1000+ euros, it's not that great. I know the specs are different because mine came with a 7300H and 1050 Ti, but quality wise it is quite lackluster. After the first year the fans were making a rattling noise and after like 2 years the paste dried out. A year ago I finally opened it and found out that the cause of bad temps was that dry paste, but I couldn't fix the fans since I couldn't find replacement fans that didn't cost 80+ euros. Also the SSHD that the laptop came with basically died after like 2 years, where windows was stuck at 100% disk usage for the whole day and I couldn't do anything. I don't know if this is a windows thing, but with windows since 2020 it would randomly freeze completely and only a power cycle would restart it. Haven't had this happen after I installed Linux so I can't say what the fault is for sure. TLDR - this laptop was a ton of trouble.
@@lycanthossI have the 8th gen i7 gl503ge, the main issue with the laptop is the thermals. It runs very hot and starts throttling, so there is so much stuttering and fps drops once the temps go up.
@@delayedcreator4783 ehh.... for light gaming maybe. if you wanna run everything on low graphics then sure, but ive got a lenovo legion which was around 3k so that it can look and feel more like pc gaming.
Gaming laptops last around 3 years. As soon as gpu is done it means all laptop is done aswell. On desktop versions you can atleast exchange for new gpu.
that i7 is so old. a lot of programs will struggle on this. that i7 7th gen is from 2016. even a modern laptop that costs new 300 dollar with a ryzen cpu will outperform that cpu.
you have to understand brand new laptops are upcharged by atleast 3 times what they're worth. They depreciate extremely fast. So $300 is actually reasonable.
Bought into that series when the 900 series GPU’s were being swapped out for the new 10 series. Stupid good laptop, used it all through college, up till Covid, and then gave it to my sister, where she has been using it until just 2 weeks ago. Thing has been, and still is a beast of a laptop
I had the same one but I had i7-8750H(If I'm not mistaken), 16 Gb RAM, 1 Tb HDD, 256 Gb ssd from Samsung and GTX 1070 8G VRAM. Bro this laptop was the goat, It performed so good. I won't forget him his is in my heart forever❤
@@delayedcreator4783I don't know, you can find laptops and prebuilt desktops at completely unreasonable prices. I found a 11 000 euros PC with only an RTX 3060
Bought my used laptop I think its called "PC Specialist Proteus V" for 180$ which brings an i7 7700hq, 1060 6gb, 16gb ddr4 2133mhz, 256gb ssd, 1tb hdd, illuminated keyboard, ips fhd, 15'6 1920x1080 60hz, only downside is that the battery is dead but that wasn't an issue for me because I don't go places with it 👍👍
be careful what u buy, gaming laptops tend to wear a lot faster than normal laptops and the price given might not even account for hardware issues and as well as how much it got abused. Most of the time, they would only account for physical damages ( ie scratches, dents) and depreciation
My dorm neighbor had one like that back in 2016 (or smth). It was ok for studying and CS GO, but too heavy. He switched to macbook in a year or year and a half though
I have a really old rog laptop and it still works very well. It boots a bit slow and the display is the worst part,but it probably works just fine for office work if you hook up a newer monitor and keep it plugged in to the power(battery is bad).
I got a Asus Rog X13 with a Ryzen 9 5900hs along with a Rtx 3050ti that I bought used locally for $280. Just removing its LM paste right now for some PTM7950 thermal pads. Hoping to put this for great use in my AG mechanics class these coming semesters
I found an Acer Nitro 5 w r5 2500u, rx560, 8gb RAM, no SSD on facebook marketplace last summer for $50. About $60 in parts (512gb SSD, another 8gb RAM, replacement keyboard) and a charger later, works like a charm. have not used it for gaming but I'm sure it's fine still. Video rendering time shows me it's still got some power.
