Man, the memories! I also had a Geforce 820m laptop for about 7 years before upgrading, and mine was even slower than the one in the video! It had only 1 GB of VRAM and the CPU was an i3-4005U locked at 1.7 GHz. I used to play a lot of old games on it along with indie games. This laptop was my introduction to PC gaming and I'll always remember it fondly ( despite how slow it was)
I had same specs on Dell Inspiron 3000 series I guess and 4gb of ram and that was terrible 😂 it can't run anything except dead 4 left 2 and that run at 80-120fps somehow ☠️
wht do u mean bro i am using the same core i3 4030u laptop with GeForce 820m in it although i has 2 gb vram and also intel integrated graphics i dont play games tho so i dont find any lag or something i only use chrome in it and nothing is slow in it except i find startup speed is about 10s and thats the only annoying thing(although nfs rivals and max payne 3 were able to run in it smoothly when it was few yrs old idk abt now tho)
These old hardware videos are fascinating to watch gives some nostalgia and also interesting how it has aged for current gaming Much more interesting than watching those RTX 4090/80 videos which can run every thing
This made me remember that I used to play AAA games in an Intel GMA 4500. I finished a game which ran at around 15-20 fps. The Bad ol' Days. But enjoyed gaming a lot more at that time.
I played games on laptops most of my life. I got my first ever laptop in 2011. It was a birthday present. It featured intel i5-2410M cpu and Radeon HD 6770m gpu and It could run any game smoothly in its native resolution (1366x768) up until 2015.
To think that an old laptop with gt 630m could do better than one with an 820m is surprising. But NVIDIA has released so many versions of each gpu (gddr version, max wattage, different tier chip on same named GPU) that it's hard to tell anymore.
I think it'd be a good idea to include Resident Evil 5 and/or 6 in this type of "old GPU" testing. Love to see TR 2013 here as usual. :) Great video man!
I swear you are the most knowledgeable person on RUclips when it comes to knowing how games run on any type of PC hardware, because you actually take the time to sit down and test it. And it makes me happy to see that you are still so happy to do it after all this time!
Omg I had GT 820M and i5 5500u. Man Im so happy I got rid of it haha. It was my first gaming experience with above 60 (mostly 90-100) fps in CS:GO back in 2015~ and I finished GTA V in 768p on low settings with 30fps so I used full potential of this laptop. Thanks for this video:)
This is the most potato i5 ever I’ve seen before. I had i5 4200H + gtx850m 2gb gddr3 and I completely played every single titles in 2020, like re2/3 remakes, ac odessey/origin, metro exodus. And all these games ran at 900p30 fps with low-high mixed settings (if it possibly). That laptop was really balanced with this hardware. And when I see a “brother” cpu can’t run potato games, I disappointed

I remember using an old HP laptop with an i7-3630QM and a GT 650M from 2012 for several years until I upgraded to my current Strix G17 with Ryzen 9 5900HX and RTX 3070 from 2021. That HP was a very good laptop, until the display died.

Wow. I wasn't disappointed. This gives me hope that my MSI RTX 4090 Raider will last at most 10 years and play games. I probably won't ever own a laptop as powerful again.
When I bought my "current" laptop in 2015 I thought it's gotta be able to play some games so when I saw it had an I7 and Nvidia graphics I that'll do. What I didn't do was research because I had not kept up with PC tech for a while. The I7 5500U was 2c/4t max 3GHz and the GPU was an 840m. The CPU was the bottleneck. And because I thought I7 was top of the range it should have been good but I didn't know the 5500U was hamstrung by a low TDP. 😢
Ha-ha, I had literally the same story. In 2015 I bought a laptop with i7 4500U and that CPU was so shit. Coupled with GT 750M this wasn't a definition of a good gaming rig per ce, but ineffective cooling system made CPU and GPU throttle like there was no tomorrow. And yeah, I also didn't do my research and thought that "i7" was enough.
In some instances some manufacturers even locked the turbo boost. I discovered mine was disabled (i5 5200u and same gt 820m here), only more recently I was able to unlock it and only because I never updated the bios, as the latest iteration had it locked once again. And it only works with the battery plugged in. U series up until 8th gen is just hat bad, my brother's i5 8250u is decent and is held back by the MX130, as it can boost up to 3.4ghz and draw 34w as Asus is allowing it to do so up until it hit 95°. I had to create a more conservative profile for when he doesn't game, because the laptop doesn't have a good cooling and easily skyrocket to 80° even afte repasting it (still better than seeing it hit 95°)
That is the smallest heat pipe I've ever seen in a laptop. But with those small heat pipe the CPU surprisingly didn't exceed 70C, but with the expense of limited performance
That funny thing in the start saved me hours of stressing cause I was desperately trying to install 425.31 version even did the shady tinkering to support it and went to unsigned gpu installation. Made the gpu obsolete and it is showing gt650m in my device manager lol.The funny thing was I clicked on the video because I was angry that how can someone make fun of my childhood gaming pc that I burnt 2 times. And since my newer pc broke down using this play games now.
I have my GTX 1650 laptop for about 3 years now and it still holds on in the majority of the games, but the CPU that hurts the most. So, for gpu heavy games it'll keep on with the right settings, but for heavy cpu games there's not much I can do about
I have a similar laptop, with an i5 5200U and a GeForce 920m and 8GB DDR3 RAM. Used to play older games on it and even tried some newer games, but it was not good. Now I just use it for Netflix and Web Browsing.
I remember playing Far Cry 3 with an i3 4005u (1.70Ghz), intel HD 4400 iGPU, 4gb RAM using low to medium settings. Back in the day, 20 FPS looked smooth and playable to me. I even played GTA 4 in it with 20ish FPS. You could have tried adding it to your benchmark.
oh wow, I just recently got a laptop with a 4gb RTX3050 and the reviews made me feel like I made an awful decision (even though every game I care about and play runs extremely smoothly) and this just made me feel like I am blessed as all hell, I mean I can play cs go with max settings 1080p while being much much smoother than...whatever that was
If it wasnt for you and your videos, i wouldnt have bought the computer i did, i stumbled apon your channel a couple years ago when i was looking up a gpu (i think it was the 1650) and ive been watching ever since, keep up the great content!
I remember my friend had that GPU with the i3 4030u CPU, playing most of the racing games (especially grid, dirt, NFS 2012, burnout), and it was really enjoyable back then in 2016
@@mrgen1c318 I'd suggest you download GPU-Z to check which variant of the 820m is on your laptop. There are 2 variants, one from 2013 and one from 2015. The newer one is quite powerful, which I think is faster than Intel HD520.
Can't believe it's been 9 years since we got our lenovo l440 laptops with a Geforce GT720m, an I5.4300m with 8 gigs of ram from school. We used them for 3 years and could buy them out for 50 bucks at that time not accounting for inflation. I when we had a free period that was more than 2 hours we used to play CSGO during that free period. 200 fps in 2014, league of legends, dota, even GTA ran at 60 fps back then. Overwatch was also easily playable on that laptop. Shit was fun..
Up until July when i built a Rx 580 pc, I was using a laptop with Gtx 870m. The jump from 870m to Rx 580 is insane, even at half the ram(16gb to 8gb). The most annoying thing about these is DX12 support or lack thereof. And that using fsr just turns the output into a black mess. Also for me recently even games that used to play, just crash out of nowhere with errors like "dx deviced removed".
I had a 4200U/GT750M thin Acer office laptop for gaming back then. Served me surprisingly well actually, pre 2014 games ran well on full hd, and I can confirm, CSGO was very playable on it. I do remember the thermals limiting it quite a bit since it was only an inch thick. The 7 hour battery life puts my 2021 asus to shame.
My first laptop was Acer travel mate p255 i5 4210u without the Nvidia 820m I was stuck with the hd4400 although the tdp was at 25 watts and I played gta.v at 10-15 FPS using a trackpad with 4Gb or ram in single channel with windows 10 😢😢😢 luckily now I have a decent gaming laptop Edit: my resolution was 800×600 shadows disabled low end mod running it looked like gta SA but was playable
6-7 years ago i had a laptop with a 920MX 2GB DDR3, i3 6006U and 12GB of RAM, i played so many things on it, (GTA 5, Batman Arkham Asylum, CSGO, Tomb Raider 2013, R6 Siege at like 35-45fps on the lowest settings 720p), but i was very happy with it, 2 years later i could afford to buy a pc with an i7 4790 and a GTX 960, now i have a Ryzen 5 3600 and a RTX 2060
Would a love a video on the Rx 6800 if you can get your hands on it. It's a great budget gpu and it just dropped in price recently so a lot of people are gonna be looking to get it this black friday. There also aren't too many reviews going in-depth on different game benchmarks for the card, and most of the ones that show gameplay are low quality and not really the best, unlike your videos. Therefore I think yours could rack up some views.
the GTA V experience reminded me of an Acer Aspire E 15 I had back in college (2020) with an i5-6200U and GeForce 940MX gpu, was able to cap it to 30 fps and play online (briefly), but it was definitely stutter-happy and dropped as a result of the CPU. Still surprised it played as well as it did
cs2 won't even start on my pc which has a r3 2200g with gtx670 2gb gddr5 16gb ddr4 ram all with the latest supported drivers. IDK why it won't run it bugs out and freezes and crashes.
I got my gaming PC for a year now. Before that i was rocking with intel G3450 and HD5770 and played world of tanks and LOL only, You clicked nostalgia button with this video 💀💀
I have a laptop with: i7 4700QM 16Gb Ram GT 740M And I’m impressed with the performance this laptop gives me overall, I know the gpu is the bottleneck, but I still play gta 5, beamng, ets 2, f1 2020, and depending on the game, at low-medium settings, while getting between 30-60 fps at the laptop res of 1633x768
My first Laptop was very similar, a GT 750M 4GB GDDR3, 8 GB RAM and a i5 3370U, its wasnt grade but worked somehow, was even able to play Battlefield 4 with it. Now my little Sister uses it.
i had an hp pavillion 15 with i7 5500U geforce 840m all the gaming tests on youtube showed bad fps but mine was 3 times theirs for some reason. its always the i5 thats holding the gpu back if you gotten yourself an i7 laptop you wouldve seen its true power. your gtav gameplay showed u 20-50 fps on low mine was ultra settings on 40-60
But why tho, they are pretty similar 2cores/4threads, that i7 has 4mb cache while i5 has 3mb so not much of adifference, their clock difference is just #200-300mhz
should have raised the power limits and turbo time in throttlestop("TPL" option). Would love to see how much this platform could be pushed with bios unlock and RAM overclock.
I upgraded my full pc and play most demanding games but still I not forgot those games that I used to play in the past like playing roadrash,taxi games,nfs
I used to game on gtx 920m 2gb laptop for long long time almost 7yrs... After graduate from ps2 that was my only gaming option...later i build my gaming pc with 2060 & now 6700xt but that was still my longest tym gaming companion... That was a crappy but relaiable companion for me still in my memory...Everyone had a special place for their first gpu...
i dont know how to put this but the PC specs are relatively better than mine and i still get up to 2x better performance out of my 2014 laptop. Just for reference it has 12gb ddr3 ram intel i5 3337u CPU nvidia gt 620m GPU and an WD green 1TB ssd. in many games like gta 5 i can play on high textures shadows and other things at 1280x768p res at around 25-35 fps. and in valorant i achieve around 110 fps at times despite the usual stuttering. Honestly i think its because in using a lighter windows version Atlas OS
In GTA this PC got way higher FPS than yours, expected from the GPU upgrade. But in Valorant which is CPU bound, yours is showing better performance, likely because of the lighter OS indeed! Or maybe the 3337u is just better lol, it has a higher clock speed after all and the difference from 3rd to 4th gen isn't that big!
After seeing this, i'd be very interested in seeing this man do a video for the RTX 2050M One of probably the most forgettable or not even know releases, so seeing a benchmark video on it would be intersting All I really know about it is it performs like a GTX 1650
@@chiboy_speaks Yeah it very so is, I came across an RTX 2050 laptop with 16GB of ram and a Ryzen 5 7535HS but for $570 which even though not good you can get a 3050M laptop for, at least where I live which is a pre sizeable jump, tho it being close or literally a GTX 1650 with the use of DLSS is good IMO, just again price to performance ain't it
@@cacomeat7385 Honestly I hope so, I've heard it was Remored to have GTX 750 Ti performance or close to the PS4 which I honestly wouldn't have liked, I think it'd be nice to have the performance of an RTX 2050M/GTX 1650 instead though For what Nintendo puts out they'll maybe be able to put out some nice 1080p60 titles
@@chiboy_speaksThe thing is for the price of a 2050 laptop or less, you can get one with a 2060, 3050 or maybe even a 3050ti which all outperform it. It was just a really weird and unneeded release.
Didn't expect you showcasing the exact same laptop specs that I own currently. My old laptop is still working super fine with 4GB DDR3L + 8GB DDR3L memory and currently used as a server lol. Been using it since 2015 when I was still in my High-school. 😂😂😂
Oh, boy. I had a laptop with GeForce 920M (2GB) + i5-6200U (2.3Ghz) and gaming was a terrible experience. My dad bought it for me for studies, but I had other intentions aside from studying. However, throughout the years of ownership I learned a few things that can boost performance for gaming. The first is the graphics settings and the pixels in particular. I started experimenting from 768p (highest support) to lowest 480p (not so low) on said chipset and gpu limitations. Honestly, I prefer a smoother 480p with 60fps on Ultra Settings without any stuttering compared to 720p or 1080p on Low to Medium settings with texture pop-in and out. My brother also did the same with his laptop when I saw him playing GTA V with his buddies and no lag whatsoever... and both of our laptops are almost identical in specs, except his laptop has a newer gen chipset.
This laptop sort of reminds me of my Alienware M11x R1 laptop with an Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300 1.3 GHz dual-core CPU (can be OC to 1.73 GHz in the BIOS), 11.6" 720p display, 4 GB DDR3 SODIMM, and an NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M 1 GB GDDR3 discrete GPU. I loved that thing haha. Even if it's basically stuck at DirectX 10 games, I used that thing for 9 years.
my dad is currently rocking a similar laptop as this, it has an i7 4700U and a 820M. I upgraded the HDD with an SSD and i mean, for what he's doing with that is fine, it's not the best, but for basic office stuff is okay, and a little 2d cad work is alright. I even tried fortnite and csgo (at the time) and works quite well a little above 30 fps with everything set to the lowest settings but i was quite surprised with this results.
oh i forgot, my little sister is actually playing minecraft on it and it works very well, everything set to low like 100 fps, one thing i hate of this computer is the awful screen it has, is a 1366x768p 60hz TN panel with glossy finish and very bad visual angles, but i think i can't complain cause is already a miracle that it have one HAHHA
I have this exact laptop in my holiday house! The gpu driver support died in 2020 but i still use it to play gta san andreas and nostalgic shooters like far cry 1 😁 Even pushes GTA 5 at a stiff 30 fps lol Not gonna throw it away

U series up until 8th gen is just hat bad, my brother's i5 8250u is decent and is held back by the MX130, as it can boost up to 3.4ghz and draw 34w as Asus is allowing it to do so up until it hit 95°. I had to create a more conservative profile for when he doesn't game, because the laptop doesn't have a good cooling and easily skyrocket to 80° even afte repasting it (still better than seeing it hit 95°)
That is the smallest heat pipe I've ever seen in a laptop. But with those small heat pipe the CPU surprisingly didn't exceed 70C, but with the expense of limited performance
i love these old gpu reviews😂😂
That funny thing in the start saved me hours of stressing cause I was desperately trying to install 425.31 version even did the shady tinkering to support it and went to unsigned gpu installation. Made the gpu obsolete and it is showing gt650m in my device manager lol.The funny thing was I clicked on the video because I was angry that how can someone make fun of my childhood gaming pc that I burnt 2 times. And since my newer pc broke down using this play games now.
I love this kind of videos, make more of them, search for some archaeological artefact and have fun
I just imagine my 3050 laptop with a 12th gen i5 becoming like this in 3 years (HP Victus 015)
Nah it's gonna last at least 5 years if it has 6gb variant
I have my GTX 1650 laptop for about 3 years now and it still holds on in the majority of the games, but the CPU that hurts the most. So, for gpu heavy games it'll keep on with the right settings, but for heavy cpu games there's not much I can do about
@@ltBanshiro that's the point
Gpu lasts longer
Still have this old laptop gpu gaming was hell
My experience with a 2nd gen intel i5 with ATI Radeon 6470m (slower than 540m) was actually satisfactory for games like Dead Island and Witcher 1.
I have a similar laptop, with an i5 5200U and a GeForce 920m and 8GB DDR3 RAM. Used to play older games on it and even tried some newer games, but it was not good. Now I just use it for Netflix and Web Browsing.
I have a i5-4210u and geforce 840m, its so much better but not by a whole lot really. That laptop served me very well with 12gb of ram too.
same with me
I remember playing Far Cry 3 with an i3 4005u (1.70Ghz), intel HD 4400 iGPU, 4gb RAM using low to medium settings. Back in the day, 20 FPS looked smooth and playable to me. I even played GTA 4 in it with 20ish FPS. You could have tried adding it to your benchmark.
oh wow, I just recently got a laptop with a 4gb RTX3050 and the reviews made me feel like I made an awful decision (even though every game I care about and play runs extremely smoothly) and this just made me feel like I am blessed as all hell, I mean I can play cs go with max settings 1080p while being much much smoother than...whatever that was
If it wasnt for you and your videos, i wouldnt have bought the computer i did, i stumbled apon your channel a couple years ago when i was looking up a gpu (i think it was the 1650) and ive been watching ever since, keep up the great content!
I remember my friend had that GPU with the i3 4030u CPU, playing most of the racing games (especially grid, dirt, NFS 2012, burnout), and it was really enjoyable back then in 2016
😮 I'm writing this comment with the same cpu and gpu
this is definitely gonna be a fun one
Your mouse polling rate may decrease that poor PC's performance.
🤣🤣🤣
A quick question!
Is a system with the Intel HD 520 worse or better than the one with an Geforce 820M?
Better
It may depend if your cpu is a "u" or "hq" variant. Same as the laptop with 820m.
The laptop in this video is bottlenecked by its U processor.
@HandleIsNewAndBad I have 2 laptop with the 6200u on both of them but one has an hd 520 while the other has an 820m. What do you think is better?
@@mrgen1c318 I'd suggest you download GPU-Z to check which variant of the 820m is on your laptop. There are 2 variants, one from 2013 and one from 2015. The newer one is quite powerful, which I think is faster than Intel HD520.
@@mrgen1c318 nvidia
It was funny interesting nostalgic to watch great video
Thank you 😃
Can't believe it's been 9 years since we got our lenovo l440 laptops with a Geforce GT720m, an I5.4300m with 8 gigs of ram from school.
We used them for 3 years and could buy them out for 50 bucks at that time not accounting for inflation.
I when we had a free period that was more than 2 hours we used to play CSGO during that free period.
200 fps in 2014, league of legends, dota, even GTA ran at 60 fps back then.
Overwatch was also easily playable on that laptop.
Shit was fun..
My old Asus N55SL with I7-2670QM and 635M was a beast in early 2012 😭
has a laptop with geforce 820m 2GB
6GB VRAM
i5 5 gen 2 cores
1TB hdd
And Intel 5500
Best laptop I used for gaming
thanks for you effort ❤️
Up until July when i built a Rx 580 pc, I was using a laptop with Gtx 870m. The jump from 870m to Rx 580 is insane, even at half the ram(16gb to 8gb). The most annoying thing about these is DX12 support or lack thereof. And that using fsr just turns the output into a black mess. Also for me recently even games that used to play, just crash out of nowhere with errors like "dx deviced removed".
this was me from 2015-2022 with a 920m and i5 5200u and only 4gb of ram
basically it was so bad it made me get a ps4 right before the ps5 came out
I thought 800 series are based on Maxwell or at least Kepler architecture LOL
I had a 4200U/GT750M thin Acer office laptop for gaming back then. Served me surprisingly well actually, pre 2014 games ran well on full hd, and I can confirm, CSGO was very playable on it. I do remember the thermals limiting it quite a bit since it was only an inch thick. The 7 hour battery life puts my 2021 asus to shame.
My first laptop was Acer travel mate p255 i5 4210u without the Nvidia 820m I was stuck with the hd4400 although the tdp was at 25 watts and I played gta.v at 10-15 FPS using a trackpad with 4Gb or ram in single channel with windows 10 😢😢😢 luckily now I have a decent gaming laptop
Edit: my resolution was 800×600 shadows disabled low end mod running it looked like gta SA but was playable
😮Im typing you with the same specs laptop from dell
6-7 years ago i had a laptop with a 920MX 2GB DDR3, i3 6006U and 12GB of RAM, i played so many things on it, (GTA 5, Batman Arkham Asylum, CSGO, Tomb Raider 2013, R6 Siege at like 35-45fps on the lowest settings 720p), but i was very happy with it, 2 years later i could afford to buy a pc with an i7 4790 and a GTX 960, now i have a Ryzen 5 3600 and a RTX 2060
Old memories ♥️
Would a love a video on the Rx 6800 if you can get your hands on it. It's a great budget gpu and it just dropped in price recently so a lot of people are gonna be looking to get it this black friday. There also aren't too many reviews going in-depth on different game benchmarks for the card, and most of the ones that show gameplay are low quality and not really the best, unlike your videos. Therefore I think yours could rack up some views.
Can you test a laptop with gtx 1050? See how it performs in 2024.
HOLY SHIT, finally some 800 series testing? But I need to tell you, the 1GB VRAM one has GDDR5 while the 2GB one is GDDR3.
finally low end pc stuffs
Would love some Rx 5000 or Arc testings.
the GTA V experience reminded me of an Acer Aspire E 15 I had back in college (2020) with an i5-6200U and GeForce 940MX gpu, was able to cap it to 30 fps and play online (briefly), but it was definitely stutter-happy and dropped as a result of the CPU. Still surprised it played as well as it did
cs2 won't even start on my pc which has a r3 2200g with gtx670 2gb gddr5 16gb ddr4 ram all with the latest supported drivers. IDK why it won't run it bugs out and freezes and crashes.
I got my gaming PC for a year now. Before that i was rocking with intel G3450 and HD5770 and played world of tanks and LOL only, You clicked nostalgia button with this video 💀💀
Finally you did my specifications 😂😂. I never asked but was waiting for it but
I have a laptop with:
i7 4700QM
16Gb Ram
GT 740M
And I’m impressed with the performance this laptop gives me overall, I know the gpu is the bottleneck, but I still play gta 5, beamng, ets 2, f1 2020, and depending on the game, at low-medium settings, while getting between 30-60 fps at the laptop res of 1633x768
Your a progamer, you can play on every machine that is crazy
My first Laptop was very similar, a GT 750M 4GB GDDR3, 8 GB RAM and a i5 3370U, its wasnt grade but worked somehow, was even able to play Battlefield 4 with it.
Now my little Sister uses it.
i had an hp pavillion 15 with i7 5500U geforce 840m all the gaming tests on youtube showed bad fps but mine was 3 times theirs for some reason. its always the i5 thats holding the gpu back if you gotten yourself an i7 laptop you wouldve seen its true power. your gtav gameplay showed u 20-50 fps on low mine was ultra settings on 40-60
Yup! True :)
But why tho, they are pretty similar 2cores/4threads, that i7 has 4mb cache while i5 has 3mb so not much of adifference, their clock difference is just #200-300mhz
i had a GT 525m Dell and thats laptop really got me into gaming optimizations.
should have raised the power limits and turbo time in throttlestop("TPL" option). Would love to see how much this platform could be pushed with bios unlock and RAM overclock.
sounds like an upgrade for me :0
Thanks for this great and funny content, really appreciated ❤
I upgraded my full pc and play most demanding games but still I not forgot those games that I used to play in the past like playing roadrash,taxi games,nfs
I used to game on gtx 920m 2gb laptop for long long time almost 7yrs... After graduate from ps2 that was my only gaming option...later i build my gaming pc with 2060 & now 6700xt but that was still my longest tym gaming companion...
That was a crappy but relaiable companion for me still in my memory...Everyone had a special place for their first gpu...
I have an i3 4010u and a i5 4210u. They really aren’t far off from each other. The i5 4210u is just an i3 4010u with turbo boost.
we need more vids like this ❤
i dont know how to put this but the PC specs are relatively better than mine and i still get up to 2x better performance out of my 2014 laptop. Just for reference it has 12gb ddr3 ram intel i5 3337u CPU nvidia gt 620m GPU and an WD green 1TB ssd.
in many games like gta 5 i can play on high textures shadows and other things at 1280x768p res at around 25-35 fps. and in valorant i achieve around 110 fps at times despite the usual stuttering. Honestly i think its because in using a lighter windows version Atlas OS
In GTA this PC got way higher FPS than yours, expected from the GPU upgrade. But in Valorant which is CPU bound, yours is showing better performance, likely because of the lighter OS indeed! Or maybe the 3337u is just better lol, it has a higher clock speed after all and the difference from 3rd to 4th gen isn't that big!
@@zWORMzGaming yeah that might be the case but what about far cry 3 I got around 30-35 fps on 768 p on medium-high settings 😂
GTA runs actually pretty good on this old laptop. Very well optimised game
Indeed! Very surprising after seeing the other games!
Try the i5-3230M hd 4000 4gb ram and play some resident Evil and fortnite and gta 5
After seeing this, i'd be very interested in seeing this man do a video for the RTX 2050M
One of probably the most forgettable or not even know releases, so seeing a benchmark video on it would be intersting
All I really know about it is it performs like a GTX 1650
For some reason he hardly makes laptop videos, the rtx 2050 is actually decent but expensive for its performance
@@chiboy_speaks Yeah it very so is, I came across an RTX 2050 laptop with 16GB of ram and a Ryzen 5 7535HS but for $570 which even though not good you can get a 3050M laptop for, at least where I live which is a pre sizeable jump, tho it being close or literally a GTX 1650 with the use of DLSS is good IMO, just again price to performance ain't it
there is a rumor that the rtx 2050 will end up being comparable to the next switch's gpu, so if that's true it would be extra interesting
@@cacomeat7385 Honestly I hope so, I've heard it was Remored to have GTX 750 Ti performance or close to the PS4 which I honestly wouldn't have liked, I think it'd be nice to have the performance of an RTX 2050M/GTX 1650 instead though
For what Nintendo puts out they'll maybe be able to put out some nice 1080p60 titles
@@chiboy_speaksThe thing is for the price of a 2050 laptop or less, you can get one with a 2060, 3050 or maybe even a 3050ti which all outperform it.
It was just a really weird and unneeded release.
Didn't expect you showcasing the exact same laptop specs that I own currently.
My old laptop is still working super fine with 4GB DDR3L + 8GB DDR3L memory and currently used as a server lol.
Been using it since 2015 when I was still in my High-school. 😂😂😂
I had a HP laptop with same processor and GPU and it used to perform very good in Dota 2, very smooth in those days even with some effects enabled.
im kinda impressed by how well the graphics of COD BO2 aged. still looks pretty good imo
Oh, boy. I had a laptop with GeForce 920M (2GB) + i5-6200U (2.3Ghz) and gaming was a terrible experience. My dad bought it for me for studies, but I had other intentions aside from studying. However, throughout the years of ownership I learned a few things that can boost performance for gaming. The first is the graphics settings and the pixels in particular. I started experimenting from 768p (highest support) to lowest 480p (not so low) on said chipset and gpu limitations. Honestly, I prefer a smoother 480p with 60fps on Ultra Settings without any stuttering compared to 720p or 1080p on Low to Medium settings with texture pop-in and out. My brother also did the same with his laptop when I saw him playing GTA V with his buddies and no lag whatsoever... and both of our laptops are almost identical in specs, except his laptop has a newer gen chipset.
Same laptop i use. Totally satisfied
I have a similar 4th gen i5 laptop with a GeForce 840M, it can play Dark Souls: Remastered (2018) at 768p 60fps with some frame drops here and there.
This laptop sort of reminds me of my Alienware M11x R1 laptop with an Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300 1.3 GHz dual-core CPU (can be OC to 1.73 GHz in the BIOS), 11.6" 720p display, 4 GB DDR3 SODIMM, and an NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M 1 GB GDDR3 discrete GPU. I loved that thing haha. Even if it's basically stuck at DirectX 10 games, I used that thing for 9 years.
my dad is currently rocking a similar laptop as this, it has an i7 4700U and a 820M. I upgraded the HDD with an SSD and i mean, for what he's doing with that is fine, it's not the best, but for basic office stuff is okay, and a little 2d cad work is alright. I even tried fortnite and csgo (at the time) and works quite well a little above 30 fps with everything set to the lowest settings but i was quite surprised with this results.
oh i forgot, my little sister is actually playing minecraft on it and it works very well, everything set to low like 100 fps, one thing i hate of this computer is the awful screen it has, is a 1366x768p 60hz TN panel with glossy finish and very bad visual angles, but i think i can't complain cause is already a miracle that it have one HAHHA
I have this exact laptop in my holiday house! The gpu driver support died in 2020 but i still use it to play gta san andreas and nostalgic shooters like far cry 1 😁 Even pushes GTA 5 at a stiff 30 fps lol
Not gonna throw it away
Hey pal i wonder if you could try and benchmark amd anthlon 3000 series with their vega 3 graphics chip 😮
I dont remember seeing anything from your channel talking about AMD's vega graphics it would great if you could benchmark them hopefully 😊
Hey! I actually have that CPU in my collection but never tested it.
Gotta get a motherboard for it, good thing black friday is coming!
Well I am VERY glad to hear this!
I can not wait for the video pal I'm looking up for it
Good luck and thank you very VERY MUCH🤩🤩🤩
Hi el kryzzpo! Its been a long time since i commented in your videos but i just wanted to let you know that literally every video you post is amazing and i tend to watch it till the end because of your fun commentary, i never expected a benchmark youtuber to bee soo good. In fact if you open a gaming channel then you would grow a lot! My best wishes to you been. I have a good pc now but you still help thousands with your benchmark videos, also i watch you everyday because youre very entertaining. watching you since 120k subs. ❤❤
Anyway keep growing brother love from india.❤😊

I really thought it would do better 😅
It was decent when it came out though
Amazing. This video card works much better than I thought. In fact, we can play something on it....
You can test emulation Performance, Try it, emulators are a good showcase for CPU Performance.
I played on an intel celeron laptop with 2gb of ram for many years XD this just bring me back to those times, it took me 10 years to get a decent pc.
