    The CPU overheating isn’t dependent on the CPU, it is dependent on how strong the cooling system is. The integrated GPU is good enough for some older games (from 10 or more years ago), but if you want anything stronger, right now you have only two choices:

    1. Get the AMD Ryzen 7 7840U (that is the only laptop with a GPU strong enough for relatively recent games like Forza Horizon)
    2. Wait for Intel’s 14th generation Meteor Lake laptop CPU line

    I would say that the i7-1355U is good enough for regular stuff besides heavy gaming and actual work like professional media editing.




















  • Pretty much anything with a new Intel i5 or i7 or a new Ryzen 5 or 7 will be good enough (as long as it is not the Ryzen 5 7520U, that one is trash).

    I would recommend the following:

    1. 14-inch, better performance: The HP Pavilion Plus Laptop 14z-ey000 from HP’s website, only with the Ryzen 7 7840U (which will require you to get an OLED screen but costs only $740 with both upgrades and can run better games if you ever plan on doing so)
    2. 14-inch, lower performance but good enough for medium to high settings: The HP Laptop 14t-ee000 from HP’s website, you need to upgrade to 16GB RAM and an Intel i5-1335U which will make it cost $550 in total, and you may want to upgrade to a better display and more storage
    3. 16-inch, better performance: The HP Pavilion Plus Laptop 16t-ab000 from HP’s website, with the i5-13500H and the RTX 3050 6GB for $700, powerful enough to run some fairly heavy games like newer car-racing games
    4. 15-inch, lower performance but good enough for medium to high settings: The HP Laptop 15t-fd000 from HP’s website, you need to upgrade to 16GB RAM which will make it cost $420 in total, and you may want to upgrade to a better display and more storage
