I like having payment options 😁 I'll definitely check that out. Thank You.

Or upgrade the Ram to 16GB 🤔

Sucks that it maxes out ram at 16GB 😔

The problem is you are looking at Business laptops like Dell Lattitudes and HP Probooks.

These are designed for Business, not games.

 

Also, the ones you listed already Dell/HP are too old to run anything officially except Win 10. Windows 10 loses security updates Oct 2025.

Another business computer....  Also too old to officially run Win 11.

 

I guess we should cut to the chase. What are you willing to spend?

Since I'm going to be playing WoW the journey begins. And downloading BlueStacks to download Android apps like Mistplay and Rewarded play. Then downloading Android games apps have and playing them. I'm hoping I can get away with something cheap. 300 tops. More like 250.

I see a Dell latitude E54450 I7 dual core processor 16GB Ram and 1TB for around 170.Windowa 10 Pro. I know I have to upgrade to Windows 11.

Dell Latitude E6430 laptop I7 Quad Core 16GB 1TB Windows 10 Pro. I'd upgrade to 11. This one I can get for 200. I'm assuming because it's Quad Core I should go with this?

Not likely to happen.

 

Dell Latitude E6430 laptop I7 Quad Core 16GB 1TB Windows 10 Pro. I'd upgrade to 11.

Not compatible with 11.

A $300 laptop will not be compatible with 11.

You will have problems with only 8GB Ram 512 GB SSD        

 

I have been using 32gig of ram since around 2008.    Do not do the above or anything unless can upgrade it.

 

Yea which one : https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Dell+Inspiron+24%27+touch+screen+All+in+One+AMD+Ryzen+5+5000+Series

Some are a review of $1000.00 buck all in 1....   So if wanting a real laptop I would suggest not if going to game.  IMHO I have no use for HP/DELL or Lenovo.products.

If you plan to run a lot of programs and need more space for temporary files, you'll need more memory. If you just need a place to store software, games, files, etc., you should focus more on storage.

Looking at reviews from other sites selling them does not look very good.
