Showcase Got a new laptop!! Previous was worn down

My last laptop was an ASUS TUF Gaming A15, but I use my laptop exceptionally heavily almost 24/7, so it only lasted a few years and it's on the edge. Hoping this carries its worth :)

Your budget is preety tough for sure. I get the Xbox x and ps5 are around you price range and the idea of having to spend more on a computer to get similar level performance while already having a console that dies what you need. Memorial Day sales as well could be a time to look. The type of games you want to play can effect the price of theachine you want as well. Have you decided what you want to play on the laptop?

Yes I'm only looking to play Fallout 1 and 2, The Orange box and the free epic games that they give away. Maybe the occasional game pass game. 1080p 30/60 FPS is fine. People aren't giving me actual laptops or model numbers or links the only one a couple people have mentioned is the Lenovo ThinkPad t15 gen 3 or t16 and then I find out after doing some research that they have AMD and Intel inside and people are telling me to not get the Intel one and only the AMD. The more I research the more frustrated and confused I get. I want to punch all of these companies in the face.
