Looking forward to google stadia, the only reason that I wanted to buy a desktop was for FM. If it's quicker than a desktop it's a no brainer for me.

Can't wait for new Ryzen CPU, postponing buying the new FM for a year, because I want to combine my new desktop with a new save.

32 and playing since CM 99/00, before that CM was a game that I would watch my uncle play. Favorite versions were CM 01/02 and FM 12. Due to limited playing time I'm still slowly progressing on my FM 17 save.

I want to buy a new Desktop, but the whole singlethreading performance domination is holding me back. The new I7-7740x at 4,3/4,5GHz seems disappointing to say the least: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/core/x-series/i7-7740x.html

The proof of the pudding is in the eating, but I guess you're probably right.

Your result is perfectly normal if you compare it to my I5 6300HQ. Hyperthreading can only do so much. And with laptops you should also consider airflow. Seeing your result makes me envious that I didn't buy the I7 6700HQ. I'm hoping to see some Kaby, Zen (within a few months) and haswell/broadwell-e results.

Probably related to reputation? I have a good team but I find it strange that nobody is trying to steal my players.

Not used it yet. I only made some changes with the pre-game editor (No Brexit, B team Burgess hill Athletic in level 22, B teams could possibly be promoted up to championship and more rivalries for Burgess Hill Athletic). I have no money but I'm having a blast, the B team is spicing up my save TBH.

I could really need these anomalies! This is how I feel when playing with Burgess Hill Athletic: JK, I love it!

You need to test the rules with the advanced editor and save your file. Works fine with Dan's file after I tested the leagues with the advanced editor.

You can just load less leagues if I'm not mistaken? Really enjoying my Burgess Hill Athletic save! Can't wait to beat Burgess Hill Town. Thank you Dan for saving FM17 for me.

I noticed that small things like testing on maximised borderless windowed costed me nearly 1 minute.

My results: CPU: I5 6300HQ CPU Frequency: 2.30Ghz (Turbo 3.20GHz) RAM: 8.00GB DDR3L OS: Win 10 Home 64-bit Storage: SSD Type: HP NOTEBOOK PAVILION "gaming" 15-AK020NB FM17 Benchmark A Time: 5 min 12 sec FM17 Benchmark B Time: 10 min 11 sec I don't know if I should try the FM 2016 benchmark as I had performance issues on that version with windows 10. I could only play with maximum borderless mode after playing around with the task manager.
