Re: Shopping for a new computer

Comparing all 3 against each other and what would I pick.

I'd go for the MSI GV62 8RD-200 as it's got the better video card and video memory.

If you find it's 1 TB hard drive too slow for you when loading games, you can purchase a solid state drive (SSD) later on to help with that.

I feel you get a little more for the money and you can't upgrade a video card on a laptop.

- Intel 8th Gen Core i5-8300H 2.3 - 4.0GHz

- Storage: Intel Optane 16GB + 1TB (5400RPM)

- Price: $799.00

I'm thinking because there is a lot of different model in the GV62 line of MSI laptops.

Ah.. And the date it first became available on Amazon was June 1, 2018. So that could be another reason.

Yep, that one.

That one will do just fine.

Sorry but I'm not doing a comparison with the multitude of different PCs mentioned in this thread.

The last one has a better CPU (I7 vs I5) and It has a 1 TB HDD as well as 128 GB SSD so offers plenty of storage. Since the SSD is not big remember to install most other programs to the HDD and move the Documents folder there as well.
