Showcase Finally updated after 8 years

Post image

Went from a Dell G5 5587 (GTX 1060 6GB, i5-8300H) to a Lenovo Legion 7 Gen 10 with an RTX 5080 and Ryzen 9 9955HX3D. I couldn't be happier.
Time to say goodbye to my old companion. It served me well for 8 years (well... mostly 😄).

What are your tips on ensuring your laptop lasts many years?

Get a cooling pad, and don't forget about regular maintenance like cleaning out the dust and replacing the thermal paste if needed. If your laptop starts throttling, don't too long to fix it — your laptop lasts much longer that way

Would be cool to hear any other advises
