Hi guys,
I wanted to know if it was worth buying a laptop that was 10 years old to game on. I wondered this because decade-old laptops are pretty cheap these days, and it could offer a cheap and portable gaming solution.
I had a Dell Studio 1735 lying around with Windows 10 installed, so I decided to do my benchmarking on that. I recorded a video displaying the results, which is linked below. Note: The benchmarks don't start until 4:55. Also, something i forgot to mention in the video is that a laptop this old has a Vista COA on it, meaning that you'd have to spend quite a lot of extra money on buying a current OS
My video is below.
