  • Budget isn't set in stone, but less than £1k and ideally closer to £500. If that's reasonable?

    Majority of time would be general browsing, odd bit of YouTube etc (no need to watch movies). Some basic word processing and spreadsheets - but nothing processor heavy (and no specialist programmes for work either).

    Some gaming capabilities would be nice - strategy/simulator games ideally (given a console isn't ideal) - Cities: Skylines, HOI4, PCM(!)

    Is a desktop the way to go instead?

    @clipon thank you too!

  • A desktop would get you a lot more for your money. You're probably looking at 3 times the cost for similar performance in a laptop. But if you're not maxing out the desktop then that's not necessarily too important.
