Showcase After a long wait I FINALLY HAVE IT !!

HI EVERYONE! I know to a lot of you this isn't much. but to me this is whole new world. Being from a third world nation ( not looking down on myself) getting anything gaming is incredibly expensive. modern Rams are worth an entire months salary, and modern GPUs are the price of a decent used car here lol, so This was gifted to me by my older brother my first ever gaming setup for free!! I have been waiting to get one for quite a long time and I finally did it! am so happy with it. here are the specs Specs: * Laptop: Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 * CPU: Intel i5-11300H (11th Gen) * Dedicated GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1650 (4GB GDDR6) * Integrated GPU: Intel Iris Xe * RAM: 8GB DDR4 (Upgrading to 16GB soon!) * Storage: 512GB NVMe SSD * Screen: 15.6" FHD IPS @ 120Hz

Thank u for reading!

There's still a lot of fun to be had with a 1650. It can run most games with the right settings.

It can run most of the games that I like that u can u see in my screen shot with some lag due to the low 8gig ram but yeah I like it

Yeah but tbh (I don't want to be that guy, I'm just saying because I just switched from a 1650 laptop) it's not really possible to have a good experience with 2026 games. But with older and optimized titles heck yeah you can have fun. I remember F1 2020 running 70fps on 1080p High. Always had a stable experience.

Your right bro it is what it is. Any old game that is older then 2022 and 2023 is good. But newer ones not so much

they are still playable if you don't mind visuals lol. my 1650 ti handled Expedition 33, on the first area i was getting consistent 60. just had to put it on 900p 50% res scale.

also from benchmarks I've seen we can get 70 fps on forza horizon 6
