[FM24 - PC/Laptop advice thread *** PLEASE READ OPENING POST BEFORE POSTING ***]

Afternoon Good people,

 

I wonder if i could borrow your expertise - in the market for a new desktop, Budget can range from £800-£1200, maybe some more if it was justified, just concerned that seeing as i am only interested in using it for FM21, whether there is a point in which the law of diminishing returns kicks in!

Any Guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Depends on the model of the processor. You have an i5-6400.

It would depend on the model of the i7 or the i9.

The 6400 is ranked at 212 on this list

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Processors-Benchmark-List.2436.0.html

And it's ranked low enough on this list https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html

As you can see on the list - there is an i7 ranked lower on both sets of data

Ideally - finding a processor that's higher up the list on both lists would be ideal.

 

 

Addendum: it would also be a good idea to have a minimum of 2.2ghz for the processor - as that is the minimum requirement.

 

 

This is fab, thank you.

 

So something like this, coming in at 39 on the list (i think!) would be a much stronger option compared to my current at rating 212?

Hi, 

 

I am currently running FM on  a Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70GHz, 2712 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s) - i am largely tech illiterate - was just wondering how substantial an upgrade in speed that an i7 or i9 processor would be?

 

Cheers.
