It lasted 5 years until the keyboard died - it may have gotten iron fillings into it from my backpack. As a computer, it still functions - but is now wedded to a desk. It could've lingered like that for a while, but I'd a trip coming up and something came up at 500 euro off so I pushed the button.
And now onto the next iteration
ASUS TUF A16
AMS Ryzen 8940hx (Zen4)
16gb - 5200Mhz RAM
1TB SSD, with another 1TB salvaged from the previous.
Nvidia RTX5060 with 8GB GDDR6 (Blackwall)
1920x1200 display - 165hz
Windows 11 (ew)
It runs Darktide with raytracing at 1080p - it'll run Cyberpunk with full Path Tracing at a steady 41fps
According to Cinebench, it's 3 times more powerful than the previous iteration.
Or 16 times more powerful than my current desktop (Which still runs after all this time - 12 years old and counting. with a HDD from at least 2008....)
It cost me the same as the previous machine.

Oh sweet meteor of death
Fall upon us.
Deliver us in fire
To Peace everlasting.
