The 3060 is far better than the 3050 TI.

It's a sensible upgrade - go for it. 

Extra RAM will be a plus in general. 

And the processor is even slightly better.

It's a great price - and a fantastic find.

Thanks. Purchased. Appreciate your time to reply.

Thanks for this advice. I was all set to go with the MSI Katana GF66 for £900, however I have noticed this: ACER Nitro 5 AMD Ryzen 7 5800H 16GB 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 6GB 15.6 Inch Windows 10 Gaming Laptop - Laptops Direct and whilst it is over my initial budget, it seems to me that for an additional £80 I would get an extra 8GB RAM and the upgraded RTX 3060 graphics card. I don't think I need either, but surely that would future proof me a wee bit further for just an extra £80.

I just wondered if you thought this upgrade on spec was too good to pass up ?

Hi,

I've read through this thread for days and I've learned a lot....i think.

I'm looking to buy a new laptop to run FM22 and hopefully future versions of the game. I want to push my budget to future proof myself as much as possible.

I understand that CPU is key and secondary to that is the graphics card. I would ideally not like to spend more than £900, but if there was something much better for a bit more then that would be ok.

I have picked out a few and wondered if you would be so kind as to offer your input on these or whether you think there is something better I've missed?

[[FM20] Everton F.C.]

Started my first FM20 save with Everton. Although at first glance the squad looks thin on top, I felt there was decent cover in all positions playing a 4-1-2-2-1 wide with inverted wingers.

I have 3 games remaining and currently sit 3rd. The only signing I made was the young Hungarian from Salzburg called Szoboszlai who only makes cameo appearances for now.

Baningime was a consistent performer in DM role whilst waiting for the return of the injured Gbamin.

Gomes being talked about for POTY and he has been a standout along with Kean, Sigurdsson, Sidibe and Pickford.

Walcott, Tosun, Martina and Schneiderlin were sold in January as not good enough and on high wages. 

POA for next season is to sign Sidibe permanently, sign backup to Digne to replace outgoing Baines, move on Delph and buy some quality in CM (BBM), move on Bernard and bring in Olmo from Dinamo Zagreb.
