Just took delivery of my new laptop, had a quick take out of the box before I had to head back to work (I do love DPD delivery times). Killing me not being able to play with it!

Already got 2 SSDs so didn't need to get a decent HDD, hence the cheapest option here. I'm coming from a gaming desktop to a laptop for the first time. Don't really sit at my desk playing games anymore and for a while now I have just been streaming games using either steam stream or nvidia stream. So decided to go the whole hog and just get a laptop and sell off the desktop.
Looking forward to getting it configured tonight and hopefully get in some gameplay
Will post updates as I go.
