This isn’t about me. I don’t buy laptops in general as they’re overpriced garbage. This is about how companies treat consumers and how it’s easy for someone to buy a laptop they think is good when it’s not.
Yeah what the fuck? Just buy a 4080, just open your laptop and fuck around with a new ssd, so worth it to play the new game that is actually the ladt three games.
External SSDs are more than fast enough for any game as long as there’s not a bus or enclosure bottleneck, and they’re portable. You don’t even need USB 4 or Thunderbolt to get GB/s throughput with an NVMe drive.
Problem comes when Anon has a laptop and doesn’t want external drives
ssd’s go inside a laptop too
Most laptops only have a single slot.
You want people to upgrade their SSD and reinstall their OS just to play a game?
They could just … not play that game.
Not anymore really. SSDs are mostly soldered in nowadays.
Surely that’s just some apple bullshit. Asshats always seem to follow them but surely that’s not becoming a norm… Right?
Smaller laptops = less customisability.
Plenty of consumer laptops sold within the last 5 years have soldered in SSDs. Apple does it because it makes for great market segmentation.
If you buy garbage it is, you are capable of doing a google search before you buy right?

All companies sell their product as if it’s the best, people who don’t bother googling before know what they’re risking
All companies, and all products?
Have you never been to a Dollar Store? 😂🤡
Actually no, we don’t have those here
Nor do you have English as your first language there.
That’s when you learn that
a) you can upgrade laptops with a larger SSD and
b) that it’s a bad idea to buy one that has the SSD soldered on…
Orrrrr just don’t buy games that routinely require you to have 250gb of space dedicated to them.
