Dell - Inspiron 15.6" Laptop - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti - 256GB Solid State Drive - Black

I'm looking for a laptop that can play casual games like paradox, older total wars, sims/be used as a business laptop like budgeting coding and etc.

my laptop has the same GPU but an i7 and 16gb ram and I have no problems with any game whatsoever. Can even run AC Origins (which is a mess of poor optimization and intrusive DRM) at a comfortable framerate on high. Maxes witcher 3 with no issues. you should be fine if you aren't an enthusiast that NEEDs max settings at 60fps. this is what i have if it's in your price range, they're pretty cheap

i updated my post with a link. gigabyte sabre 15. I've only played one total war game on this laptop (rome 2 lul) and it worked perfectly. oh wait I played shogun 2 as well which had no issues either.

if it's under 1000 it's doable. idk would you recommend just getting that as a gaming machine instead of a desktop?

You've heard of the concept called "portability," right? Not everyone is a shut in who never leaves their parents' basement.

Holy shit 1.5k for a 1050 Ti laptop? You can literally get a 1070 laptop with a G-Sync display for that price and likely with a 1TB mechanical drive to go along with an SSD.

You could probably even go lower than that on the GPU if you're just playing Paradox games

nah just if I have to be social when friends are over. Again, it will be secondary to gaming.
