I think the stickys at the top need removing, they are so log out of date and inaccurate, it creates a bad opening impression for new people -

Also apologies to keep pestering but what do you think of this one relative to the others. http://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/a2-refurbished-acer-aspire-f5-571-50s0-intel-core-i5-5200u-8gb-1tb-intel-hd-a2-nx.g9zek.001/version.asp?refsource=LDadwords&crtag=LD&refsource=ldadwords&gclid=CjwKEAjwltC9BRDRvMfD2N66nlISJACq859157zlc2viXbNt5gYndacsVqnOMWGYB3yGiCN7HT5K5xoCpx7w_wcB -

Thanks for your help, I too was surprised, the old one ran FM so well, but this one is unusably slow and has been since i bought it. Which is more important for the day to day speed, and match speed, ram or processor . Just wondering so if i can save up a bit more I can see whteher i should be going for an i5 processor or more ram Also should say FM itself recognizes the new one as significantly worse. drops it to half a star performance with only one countries leagues loaded -

Hi, I used to have a laptop Acer Aspire E5-571-304M which ran FM very well for me, 3D and fast processing (at least what I term fast). Unfortunately this broke so I went and bought and Acer Aspire ES1-531-P5SA thinking this was an upgrade. Unfortunately this laptop runs Football Manager exceptionally slow, taking me a very long time to run even a match, and I can walk away from the laptop going from one day to the next even if I really limit my leagues. Can someone offer me advice if the laptop I have bought is worse for FM than the old one or if its something else wrong. Als
