I'm new to this, having bought my first "new" gaming laptop in 12 years and the things I learn from you folks are invaluable......... but this all seems like "the new norm" from the outside looking in.......kind of like when the toothpaste is out of the tube scenario........ I wanted to upgrade my Son's RX 540 video card and was floored by how much even an incremental increase in power is ....... had to put that on hold ...... I just also want to say thanks to all of you because every time you folks post, I learn something I didn't know ...........
