I'm looking for a good option for a cheap gaming laptop.

I know somebody will say "just buy a desktop" but I want a more portable and powerful laptop.

My personal option is the motile 14" 8gb ram and 248gb ssd from Walmart.

But is there a much cheaper option for a powerful laptop with 64-bit windows ten?

I've never heard of that brand from Walmart, learn something new every day!

Honestly, you likely won't find much of a better price for a new laptop with similar specs from what I've seen.

I usually keep tabs on the sales and deals on newegg.com when I'm looking for stuff. You might be able to get a more known brand of laptop for a similar price doing that, possibly even something with a dedicated video card (like NVidia MX150 or something, not anything new).

 

Good luck, hope you find something that suits your needs!

I remember seeing a review of those things on Linus Tech Tips, they seem to be really good value for the price.

I personally got an Acer Aspire 7 refurbished for 550$, they're rare to come by, but they come with a GTX 1050.

It's sad how much time mods spend saying "x is no longer supported on this forum. Please update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support".

I recently purchased a Lenovo L340 15 inch for 640 Euros.

It has a GTX 1660 and an i5 9.th gen.

I hasn't arrived yet. But if you want something new look at at a Laptop like this.

There is also a 17-Inch Version for a bit more. But I liked the 15 inch more ^^

      This is either a bug in a mod, or you installed mods that won't work with your current version of Minecraft. Note that mods are rarely ever compatible with multiple versions of Minecraft.

      well obviously, Enchantment#canApply(), calls ItemStack#CanApplyAtEnchantingTable(), which calls Item#canApplyAtEnchantingTable. Therefore, you got yourself an infinite loop...

      World creation in 1.16.x

      By AndrewLI · Posted 1 hour ago

      Hi I want to write a new mod in forge 1.16.4, which should generate a new (water) world, and add later the usual blocks there. But I found only old tutorials, that use IWorldGenerator. And I cannot find a new (json-based) world generator. Does anyone know a tutorial or documentation of the new world generation?
