It's fine for playing current gen games at good quality but probably won't be for next gen.

Should be fine for current gen and cross gen.

Won't keep up when next gen gets into full gear. So probably good for 3ish years.

Mkay, I suspected as much. Im mostly interested in playing the AAA backlog of the past decade and perhaps a few years down the road. That and indies, I love indies.

You'd probably need a 2070 or 2080 to last the generation, but the 3000 Series is right around the bend anyway.

Yeah, that's not too bad especially for the price. I got an older laptop with an i7-8750H, a 6GB GTX 1060, and 144hz screen for about $845 at the start of the pandemic, so you definitely got the better deal.

Just became outdated. More pricey than a PC due to smaller parts, and you can't upgrade the rig so at some point you just have to decide to buy a whole new thing.
