Finally got my cash together for laptop and then noticed this. Wondered if this was good value? Nitro5 15.6", Ryzen 7- 6800H, RTX-3070Ti , 16GB(2x8GB DDR5), 1TB can get it for £989.

Love it!

Sadly I will be using it in dining room / no monitor allowed on wife's orders lol. Have home office with monitor but I spend entire day in that room! Might just have to grim and bear it on smaller screen if sort CPU or just take the plunge in my path to be lost in my rabbit hole of FM.

Cooling pad on its way tomorrow! If that works happy days. Only downside I have on macbook is its small 13" screen !!!

Thank you all, testing a cooling pad from amazon that will arrive tomorrow and will keep checking it to see what difference makes. If it sits in high 80s into 90s I might just pull the plug and get new one incase it damages it long term. Have a short window to grab a big discount on on I've seen so will blast it tonight and monitor it and then tomorrow night with cooling pad to see difference!

Running FM23 on macbook pro. 13" 2016 2.9 i5 8HB DDR3 Intel Graphics 550. Running 6 leagues is still at 3.5 stars but the CPU is running hotter than I think is acceptable... Not really a gamer other than FM but considering just buying new gaming laptop. On Google I read conflicting messages re it being too hot or not.. Playing spotify and surfing Web it sits steady 35-40 start up FM and after about 30 mins the temps start to increase. Wondered if it is indeed to hot and if so would a cooling pad work or should I just blow my cash on a new laptop ! Edit- in some instances it was into 90s not shown in pic

Thank you so much!!! Affiliate site were clueless this is what I needed thank you so much- so I can use on my mac then save to cloud, load on laptop resume ! Happy days !

Apologies for the stupid question as new to steam. Currently own mac, soon to be gaming laptop. Steam site shows windows and mac logo against FM24 download which indicates I can purchase use on mac, save to cloud and resume on gaming laptop. Looking at affiliate site (cheaper) it simply states platform is "steam(pc)" .. does this mean it will still work. What I don't want to do is purchase to have to repurchase. I'm guessing steam on windows/mac is cross platform and I'm overthinking this!!!

Thank you SO much for this @kevhamster I really appreciate your help. If you know anything else up to £1700 better please advise otherwise I shall press the button:-) Thank you for your help I had been getting myself in knots.
