  1. I was thinking of picking this one up as well, but then I took a look at the second i5 version they have listed for an extra £70 https://www.box.co.uk/82S90034UK-Lenovo-IdeaPad-Gaming-3-Intel-Core-i5-16_4338321.html And then this one for the same price https://www.box.co.uk/NBCBAP15716-3-Chillblast-Apollo-Intel-Core-i7-16GB-RAM_4404027.html At the minute I'm leaning towards the £650 i5-12500H Lenovo but I'm wondering if the i7-12700H Chillblast is worth the same money with it having a 'better' (?) CPU but a worst GPU (I usually play 2D anyway)..... from a brand that I've never really heard of. https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/4727vs4750vs4721/Intel-i5-12450H-vs-Intel-i5-12500H-vs-Intel-i7-12700H
  2. Nevermind "will you buy FM23", how about asking "are SI gonna release an FM23?" How has it got to the end of August without a single bit of information being released about this seasons game? To me its weird that the game comes out in November (3 months in to the season) but due to bugs won't become really playable until December/ January (+4months in to the season). Like I said before, it'd make sense for SI to stick with the latest build of the match engine and commit to it for a cycle of 2 or 3 releases rather fiddling with it every new game. I imagine a scenario where FM23 and FM24 would come out with a lot of small tweaks beside the current ME, making it fully playable from day one. Then when it comes to FM25 they reveal a whole new ME that they've developed and perfected over 3 years.
  3. My first game was CM 3 / 99/01 so I wil agree with you that there have been some massive improvements in the game over the years but to me the most recent editions haven't done enough to keep me interested. For a while I've been of the opinion that FM should come out as a data update every other year rather than being sold as a new game each time. The new features or updates on existing ones are starting to scrape the barrel a little, which is why I think SI feel the need to claim they've tweaked the match engine every season - this then leads to the match engine being broken upon release, making the game either unplayable or unenjoyable until after Christmas. I found FM22s list of headline features to be extremely weak. Claiming reskins to existing data screens (the data hub) and updates to deadline day and interactions with staff (which everyone skipped anyway) as features was just laughable. For me to buy the next game I'd be hoping to see some big gameplay improvements but I'm not holding my breath.
  4. I was thinking of getting a relatively cheap (£400ish) laptop for work and FM on-the-go. 2D match view so graphics aren't an issue. Seen these two; https://www.box.co.uk/82KD008NUK-Lenovo-V15-G2-Ryzen-5-8GB-RAM-256GB-SSD-_3855619.html https://www.box.co.uk/82KD0007UK-Lenovo-V15-G2_3614139.html I had my eye on the first one with the R5 5500u then spotted the second, with a R7 5700u. First time I've seen this CPU at the kind of price so just wondered if there would be any noticeable difference between the two.
