I'm looking at this deal for a prebuilt:
Lenovo LOQ 17IRR9 Tower PC — $749.99
- Intel Core i5-14400F (10 cores, 16 threads, up to 4.7GHz)
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 (8GB GDDR6)
- RAM 16GB DDR5
- 512GB SSD
- PSU 500W
For some context, my PC has a 1070 in it. I'm a budget conscious gamer, usually playing at 1080p. With ram prices skyrocketing and steam betting on steam machines with low vram going forwards, I feel like it's an okay deal for a guy who upgrades basically never.
It seems like a nice deal to me. Anyone want to talk me out of it?
I Never Said anything about crashing the Computer. Sure 16 wont Crash your Computer with These Apps Open but you get noticable lags (overall, not just ingame). Also there are enough Games Ranging from AAA to heavily modded minecraft which will eat 6-8 gb Minimum and reduce the Overall Quality of your experience. While true, that not every game eats that much, „not many“ is really an Understatement. Imho 24 gb is the bare minimum for a frictionless experience because as a 16gb user i can confidently say Yes you can play but it will lag depending on what you do
