If you can provide examples of sites you'd use in the Netherlands as well as which sites from the UK you know will ship to you and I'll have a look. hi Kevhamster I was only expecting spec recommendations, so you are going above and beyond. some links below, Bol.com coolblue.nl https://www.mediamarkt.nl/ https://www.megekko.nl/ but as mentioned Spec also fine. e.g. Intel vs AMD (and type), Graphics card, Ram etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ta for any help! Cities Skylines 2 is currently renowned for needing very high specs to run well and in all honesty you may struggle without considerably increasing the budget, at least until the optomisation patches come out. This refurbished one in theory meets the minimum specs, but I'm really not sure how well it'll do with Cities Skylines 2. It will be fine for FM24.

Look out for Intel 12th gen or AMD 6000 series processors (ie last years models) as I think they are likely to be the best deals. I've already seen an R7 6800/3070ti for around £1000 so I don't think it's unrealistic to hope for a 3060/4060 equipped one more in your price range, when discounted.

When you posted the previous specs I wondered if perhaps you were on Windows 8 or earlier. I'd suggest putting a ticket in to Sega support. Edit: I can see it is the A10 after all - that is still higher than the minimum requirements and you're on Windows 10. Although I'd not expect the game to run quickly on this system, it should still be compatible. Definitely put a ticket into Support and see if they can help.

When you posted the previous specs I wondered if perhaps you were on Windows 8 or earlier. I'd suggest putting a ticket in to Sega support. Edit: I can see it is the A10 after all - that is still higher than the minimum requirements and you're on Windows 10. Although I'd not expect the game to run quickly on this system, it should still be compatible. Definitely put a ticket into Support and see if they can help. Thanks for the advice! I decided to uninstall the game this morning and install again, you'll not believe that it worked this time 🙈😂 Cheers guys 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd go with the one I linked due to that having a dedicated graphics card, which could well be needed when FM25 comes along. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much man, out of interest how much better is the one for £550 you linked rather than the one you originally linked for around £400? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's difficult to quantify, but you have a better CPU and a dedicated graphics card so it's an all-round improvment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do get a warranty with this site, and over the last few years I've bought three laptops from them myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
