Want to get laptop to run d2r maybe couple instances.
Obviously the game isn't very demanding so something cheap should work. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks in advance

I would suggest getting a Laptop with at least 1TB of SSD or NvME & at least 16GB (I myself would go for 23GB of RAM.

1. Avoid getting anything with 1060 // 1080 since MOST laptops nowadays will come with at least a 3060 RTX or above

Here is a sample one:

Yeah I'm thinking less than 1000usd so around there. Laptops just feel like such a waste the more research I do

Desktops are the way to go unless it's important to you that you can move around with the laptop.

Laptops are intended for what they were made (which is to be used whenever you are OUT traveling or on the GO)

You can expect to play games on it but keep in mind that laptops are NOT meant for LONG PLAYING HOURS like a regular Desktop Computer, it's simply impossible

1. IF you need a computer for gaming and long hours I suggest getting a Desktop Computer
2. IF what you need is a laptop to be able to play games while traveling or perhaps at work then YES get a laptop

I bought a laptop recently for d2r

Razer 2019 for 240$
2070rtx max
15.9 inches

Let me tell you. .
This thing gets super hot. .
Cook on the keys for sure fry an egg no problem.

Found a guide to setup the best cooling system within itself.
Now it’s great , runs smooth.

But yet again I don’t game for many hours.
But just my experience with this Razer laptop.
But today I’d look into a legion
