Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Hi Folks,

Appreciate any thoughts on the following. Work laptop but may as well get something I can game on given it's not a huge jump in cost.

Deciding between following - open to discussing other options, price cap €1k

Are you limited to brick and mortar? There's better value laptops online, can get at least 30% more powerful laptop at that price online.

The only decent gaming laptop in the bunch is the first one with the GTX1650.
