Canute Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Desktop don't allways need to use more power then a laptop. Serveral gaming laptops use similar power like a desktop system, it allways depend what components are used and what performace you want to reach. When you search for passive or silent systems you will find mosttime powerefficient systems. I don't want say what you should use. But you should have at last 16GB better 32GB or more RAM. 512 GB SSD sound much at first, but games get bigger and bigger even 7d2d need 15GB+ installation. Some gaming websites got a hardware part too, and some even offer some own complete systems and let them sell over big companies like Alternate. Check of these compare with Dell too. Finding a good system for your cash budget isn't an easy task anymore ! 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganeshakw Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) Agreed. One more thing, if I connect to a server lets say someone is hosting a DF server or for some other mod, do I need a strong client to play ? 😀 Edited November 9, 2022 by Ganeshakw (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falaffel Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 RAM depends IMHO mostly on mapsize, graphics on your indivdual settings. Join small maps with 16 (or even less) GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganeshakw Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Thanks. One last thing, do I need to have a better graphics card in this case ? Sorry to bother you but I have never done this before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falaffel Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Not necessary: you can play with old @%$#, but have to lower the graphical settings. May look @%$#ty, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canute Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) You allways can lower the quality of the video settings, first turn off shadows, texture quality, particle, Distanceview. There is even a mod that can increase the performace at cities because it change the windows. When you lowered most of them allready and still got bad fps, then you might should think about a different screen resolution (from 4k to 2k, depend on your monitor). Or geting a better videocard, look for videocard rankings, search for your current card and then look what is better that can fit your budget. When you join a server, you have mosttimes lower RAM need then when you play singleplayer, because at MP the server runs the map.

Finding a good system for your cash budget isn't an easy task anymore ! 😞 Depends entiely what you put in it. JUST the GPU in my desktop pulls 350W-375W while gaming. My entire laptop, running at 100% (CPU and GPU) pulls 275-300W. And for the record, my laptop has 2 280W power bricks for 560W max load. I just did a LOT of tweaking. I did the same on the desktop and it still pulls 475-500W. My wife's laptop can pull a max of 170W (Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3060).

Fanatical_Meat Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Simply put if portability and small size are not a concern when it comes to gaming desktop are simply better all around. If you need to haul the machine around with you laptop is the only option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's absolutely mental. I'm considering saving up for a 13th gen intel with USB4v2 next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the cost and overall inflexibility of laptops sort of limits things, most obvious is the video card or adding memory in the future. Desktops simply don’t have the lower power and space restraints laptops do. If you need a small or portable machine a laptop is fine, if you’re just going to un-box the laptop and set it on a desk there simply is no reason not to have a desktop.

KhaineGB Posted November 10, 2022 Author Share Posted November 10, 2022 Memory isn't hard or expensive to add. It costs about the same as a desktop. Just make sure you get one with 4 RAM slots if absolutely necessary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves Hero Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Small issued about 7DtD random map generator with 15k size only 1 missed DFalls_DemonPortal 6 out of 7 just keep re-generator again 30mins was wasted time, I think best way manual world editor add demonportal POI & add some more 2 or 3 same POI each places because large 15k map easy save time then re-generator.

jackx Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I'd like to report a bug/gitch when you die on a vehicle, for example on a mini bike, motor cycle, you don't die but get gitched/bugged. The game considers you dead but you can dismount and play as normal, since the game considers you dead, zombies won't spawn but you can still loot and explore, if you run into any zombies they'll only do the animation where you died and feast on your body, they won't attack you, and ignore you. It persist untill you relog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaineGB Posted November 13, 2022 Author Share Posted November 13, 2022 That's a vanilla bug, It happens if you die on a ladder too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
