really weird flex... we're like all pushing 40 and nerds, not sure what this post is for.
Wasn’t a flex - just a shockingly good deal. I shared it here in case anyone was needing to replace their old machine like I was. The deal expired 48hr after I made the post and was supposedly good at any Costco that still had them in stock.

Ended up spending about 60% less than I was planning on. I’d been browsing for a few months waiting on either a good deal or to commit to buy the premium laptop I had been eyeballing.

So far it’s been great. For p99 I no longer lag in the worst areas in crowds. For the other new games I play it’s the difference between 55-60 fps with graphics turned down and 150-200+ fps with the graphics cranked to max.

Costco lol. Did you pick up a new pair of running shoes from Walmart while you were at it?

I know this is a free game. But does the majority of this server live in poverty or something?
Since when does shopping at Costco imply poverty? Occasionally you can get stupid deals when they are clearing out inventory. Picked up a 75” Samsung TV earlier this year for $500. The same model 6 months earlier at wholesale prices was a bit over $1900.

I probably make more money than you Infectious but I still keep an ear to the ground for stellar deals. I make a point to look at the electronics whenever I’m there to pick up the perishables we routinely buy in bulk to feed the family.
