I have used this company repeatedly on desktops, and always been really pleased.

Can anyone suggest a laptop that will work well with 2020 please?

 

I just sent my supposedly highly rated laptop back on purchase warranty/return as it was so hot as soon as I ran FS2020 that the company's reassurances were just not making me happy. I am sure the laptop was an excellent one but 85-90 degrees centigrade with rolling mat (5 fans) underneath caused me to go back to now buying a desktop. So just beware that fs2020 is very demanding.

I researched whether I could use a laptop for MSFS, because I generally prefer laptops. I concluded it was not going to work, at least not to my desired level of graphics. And the price differences were not worthwhile.

I have an asus laptop with an Intel 10980 and nvidia 2070. Even though I live in the Philippines, I have no problems with over heating. I would wait now,and get a nvidia 3000 series. Mine runs fs2020 good, but laptops will always be more expensive.
