Purpose for my laptop is for gaming, my budget £2000, I'm from UK.

I'll be honest that you will struggle getting the 4060 to perform at that resolution let alone the 4050 in games like Cyberpunk with ultra settings. You also don't need 64GB RAM for gaming, 32GB RAM is ideal, so we can move your budget around to get you something better performing such as:

You may still need to go with high settings instead of ultra in some games to up your fps, but the 4070 will do a better job than both the 4060 and 4050.

I really wanted to get this version but i dont like the model i had the same one which broke off the hindges

Unusual for that to happen without a great deal of force being applied to the hinges.. but that aside I would still strongly recommend at least a 4070 GPU if you're expecting to play heavy games.

It got worn out, and i do rage a bit time to time, hoping to get a more durable or resistence. Thank you for the help though, i really appreciate it

Sad thing is they had the model which i was looking for but it's not on sale anymore sadly and i dont know when or if it's coming back

Would 5600mhz ram be a worthy upgrade on the recoils instead of 4800mhz? I’m told that there are compatibility issues with Corsair so possibly stuck with PCS ram

[shy pilot]

We don’t have anything on the configurator that isn’t tested to ensure compatibility - so the Corsair ram should be fine. 4800 is the baseline speed for DDR5 and not much quicker than going DDR4, so I generally recommend getting the quickest you can afford to get.

Oh btw I ended up getting the laptop you recommended me with specific specs
