The Alienware was stuttering on PUBG because the 860m needs V-Sync on some games. I have the 2014 Lenovo Y-50 and I had the same problem until I turned on V-Sync and it fixed the stuttering.

Degenerate dude the 860m is just not enough for pubg... ultra low at maybe 60fps

Depends. My friend used to have a 860m and he had stutter issues all over the place. Nothing could save it, so he just sold it. Ironically enough my 850m has the same exact issues, but they are fixable. I'm guessing that the cooling is just bad or probably the architecture isn't aging well.

Excellent video, Austin! Personally, I always recommend clients wait for a special deal.

Hard to argue saving a few hundred bucks but going back multiple generations in CPU, RAM, and GPU tech. Unless you're in a hurry, wait and watch for deals! :)

It may not be as a nice of condition as the Acer (mine was pretty good), but it'll be better than the Alienware _and_ come with a warranty. It also comes with a smaller SSD and less RAM, but the 1060 is like 3 times better than the Alienware, and the 7300HQ is twice as good.

The new warranty board again, Died. Only 2 months in! And they Refused to replace it claiming he had exposed it to moisture. He didn't even sweat on it. When we opened it up, the board had multiple spots of corrosion that had been there a long time. So he binned the 1.5 year old laptop and bought a new Alienware. The thing is a Tank. He's Stoked about it's specs, rigidity, performance, etc. But he had to pay for it. About as much as you'd expect.

Austin, try reapplying the thermal paste for the alien ware. The main problem with a lot of old laptops is that their thermal compound has all been dry up which will start thermal throttling the laptop which gives it those stutters. Also, another thing you can do is use Intel extreme tuning utilities to limit the core current. I have manage to reduce over 10 degree Celsius by doing so while providing the same performance and stability.

Good video but I think getting a used Alienware was a poor choice. I'm in college right now and had a pretty low budget for laptops. In all my Ebay searching I've found that older Alienware laptops are usually still to expensive for the hardware you're buying, and if you search for some lesser known but still respectable gaming laptop manufacturers such as Gigabyte or even some of the system integrators like CyberPowerPC, you can find great internals for a lower cost. My own laptop is a great example. It's a CyberPowerPC Fangbook Edge which is basically a rebranded Gigabyte P35W v2. Came with an i7-4710HQ (quad core with hyperthreading), Nvidia GTX 870m, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB hard drive and a 500 GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD. Keyboard and touchpad are both usable and the 1080p display is sharp. Got it all for ~$470 including shipping. Side note about Ebay Alienwares, I've seen people who must not know much about gaming laptops trying to sell old Alienwares with first and second gen Intel i7's and Nvidia GTX 4XX series GPUs for as much as $500, so if you do want an Alienware you'll have to sort through a bunch of overpriced scrap metal to find anything even half-decent. Anyways, just my two cents. Thanks for the vid Austin.

[@technocurry]

SuperDan phones are not easy to play fps on. and i cant play overwatch comp

[@darthwaximus5821]

What's your specs?

[@zihengshao544]

I purchased a refurbished ASUS G701VI and I'm pretty happy with it so far

[@georgealexoo2996]

Guys, if you play on mid range laptops, turning on battery saver can give you better thermals without compromising performance. For example when i use it, my i5-6200U runs at 2.3 Ghz instead of 2.8. Fps stay the same in most games and i get 5-10 degrees less on both gpu and cpu (since they are on same heat sink) Also a cooling fan base helps a lot. I bought one from ebay for less than 5$ and i get 15 degrees less.

Asus fx53 Gtx 1050 2gb I7 7th gen 12gb ram 550$ cdn

[@BobMarley-vl5gl]

I got an i5 7thgen and 1050ti laptop used for $500 on Craigslist

[@user-ri9dn4vi6i]

Felix Walton a 1050ti pc for 500$ is realistic... but a laptop? Laptops are always overpriced. A laptop with a 1050ti usually costs around 1.5k or more...

[@333dae]

spaghetti lol what kinda laptops are you looking at? a 1050ti laptop is $800-$1000

[@ayushkaushik8794]

It was used tho.

[@user-ri9dn4vi6i]

SeventySeven do you mean a used 1050ti is worth 800-1000$ or a new one? Because most laptops that i find for 1000$ (in my country) usually have a gpu like a 960m

[@BobMarley-vl5gl]

It was on Craigslist and the owner had bought it a week prior, his price was 900 I msg him and got for 500$ if I picked it up so I did a 1050ti 16g o rams and i5 7th gen

So far, my favorite laptop that I've had so far and still use is a Dell Precision m6400 laptop which was Dell's most powerful and expensive laptop from late 2008 to early 2009 and still seems capable today with a Core 2 extreme QX9300 cpu with 12 gb ddr3 ram and a 1 gb ATI firepro m7740 and an intel 480 gb ssd.

[@shagstars]

if you buy laptops of the price of cars then you should expect it to last a while.

should def redo this video! would love to see if getting a $300 laptop vs an old $300 gaming laptop would hold up!

[@ejohn180]

I picked up my gaming laptop for 400 USD plus 16 dollars shipping, it's a quad core 3rd gen i7 and 16 GB ram with a GTX 670mx with 3gb vram. It plays modern titles at 1080p medium settings. It also overclocks like a beast

[@ghostmarine1036]

Is a used condom worth it

[@STU6Z]

Well is it refurbished?

[@jamesholdcroft5592]

Put it in the washing machine and you will be all good 😂

I have a used MSI laptop with a 960m (2gb) and i7-6700HQ, with upgraded drives (one NVMe m.2 SSD and one SATA), that I no longer use because it has some... quirks (I bought a new laptop). Mechanically, everything is fine, however, there is some cosmetic wear (mostly scratches and other wear), and one of the hinges separated from the screen and is held on by tape. Since the drives are swapped, some of the software doesn't seem to work right. Before connecting to a new network, you have to reboot for whatever reason, and some applications don't like Ethernet. It still runs modern games reasonably, with PUBG (on medium) at about 40-50 fps, and GTA V 1080p 60 fps at high settings (most other games I play are either uncommon or I use weird settings). I have also upgraded the RAM to 16gb. For anyone wondering it is the MSI GE62 6QD Apache Pro model. And one last thing, the CD drive doesn't work, it never has even from the factory (but who uses that nowadays anyway). Would this be a good time to sell the computer before it gets too outdated? What could I get for it? Any help would be appreciated because I don't know a lot about the used PC market.

I recently purchased a used hp omen from a pawn shop. I'm pretty happy with my purchase, it was under a year old and still had 2 months of warranty on it. They were asking 199.99 plus tax but I talked them dont to 195 out the door and got them to throw in a free laptop bag. 7th gen i7, 128 ssd, 1td hdd, 8gb ram, gtx 1050ti. It's not the 4k display but I still think I came out on top.

[@foufoufun]

The biggest issue with a used laptop will be the battery life. They can barely last an hour after a year or two of heavy use. You can always replace it but it can get pretty expensive, which would defy the point of buying a used laptop. It is something to consider if you intend to use the laptop on battery.

[@vSaab180]

Was thinking about this before buying a pc, thanks for the informative video Austin

[@overhaul2265]

OMG Austin you are the best youtuber so far love your videos!!!

[@RandomFandomOfficial]

Actually SSD can make a huge difference in gaming performance. Large open world games are the ones to take a perfomance hit when using a HDD.

[@MikeyyMonty]

I bought that Alienware when it first came out before I knew about building desktops. Regretted it after a year. Overheated a lot, and the gpu and cpu underclocked themselves and I couldn’t change it to the point where Minecraft ran 14 frames on everything low.

[@charleshogan5735]

i bought a used MSI GE70 apache pro for $350.00 on ebay,and i love it,it plays everything i throw at it,so im happy.i has a 4th gen I7 and it hasnt failed me yet.

[@laks2804]

I have been using used gaming laptop, Alienware (lasted 2 years after warranty from 2nd hand)and Gigabyte (but realistically it’s quite new, considering it has still 18 months warranty out of 24 months) both have did a good job and still doing a good job

[@aos10]

there is other factor, when buying old laptop, the CPU and GPU could been dying from daily use. for example, pick up the same alienware 13 (one used and one new) and you will notice some difference in the performance.

[@LittlePencils]

Got an Asus G75VX with an i7 & GTX 670MX for $200, loving it so far!

[@PearComputingDevices]

I own all Dell hardware, it's business hardware so it's not really designed for gaming. But that's who owns and produces Alienware today. But, I have been impressed with some of Acers newer hardware. I looked at a Chromebook, pricey at $349, but for that $349 your getting pretty close to a Pixel in both performance and build quality. Very, very nice. I don't think they could make a gaming system with that kind of built at that price point of $600 of course, but I wouldn't doubt they could beat most other systems at getting close.

[@SolomonSide3]

If it's rpga and mxm then yes, used laptops are a good choice to build into modern thresholds over time. If it's a soldered machined then no, it's not worth purchasing as your stuck with its current level of performance. This is of course if you want it to be your main machine for everything.

[@Jensen-C]

That’s why close the laptop and hook it up to a monitor so your basically using it like a pc, that’s when your at home anyway. when your on the go just unplug it and go

[@rollingtroll]

With 'serious' GPU's in laptops breaking non-stop after 4-5 years, I wouldn't. Also 500 bucks seems like a lot, 4 year old laptops that were more than that new fetch 3-400US here. I bought my (new more expensive) Dell E6230 for 250 bucks, warranty and all, 2.5 years ago. These days with decent graphics being installed into processors, I see this going the right way.

[@FubarMike]

That acer is a pretty sweet deal since it doesn't actually look like a gaming laptop and has a white backlit keyboard instead of that red garbage on cheap gaming laptops so it looks more professional. you could probably get an external gpu dock later down the line like a razer core too since it has that usb c

[@riwaj4372]

Lovin these budget laptop vids 👍👍👍

[@dafe1115]

I’ve been through ebay all day but I couldn’t find any Alienware similar to that, can I buy yous Austin it looks awesome

[@AlbertoAvila]

Did you clean it Austin?, the issue with used laptops is frequently they need to clean inside, lots of dust in air vents or bad thermal paste!
