  1. Got a 14 inch MSI laptop on the way with a comet lake i5-10210u and nvidia mx250 graphics. 512 gb nvme and 16 gigs of ddr4-2666. should run pretty nice. $984 total.
     
  2. I will post some pics and put this one through its paces.

    for price I would say that pretty good for what in the laptop. Im sure it blows away most the 199~299$ laptops I had the displeasure of having to maintenance and or repair :)

    Let me get windows loaded and i will run some benchmarks and put them up.
     
  5. Or not.......trust me, it runs great. The person using it is supremely happy with it, and was a bit under budget.

    why was the factory seal broken? did you go inside?
     
  7. Yep, stuck some more ram in it. Bumped up to 16 gigs of ram....came with 8. Don't worry, i was gentle with her. Was a very smooth tear down, impressive how easy it was for a thin laptop.....Superior in every way to a similar price mac book.

    Isnt like 860m faster than mx150? I would assume mx250 isnt that much more ahead.

    MX250 and 860M are pretty equal, 860M slightly faster.

    Thats what i thought and didnt even look into the specs. Both are pretty unimpressive if wanna do some gaming on it.

    Yes, latest games are somewhat playable on low settings, 1280x720.
