    Looking at a laptop and a desktop. I might be wrong, but the laptop has the better CPU and the desktop has the better GPU. Which one do you think will give a better experience in beamng?

    Laptop

    Ryzen 7 4800HS
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB GDDR6
    16GB 3200MHz DDR4 RAM
    1TB PCIe NVMe M 2 SSD

    Desktop

    Ryzen 5 2600 6-Core 3 4GHz
    Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 6GB GDDR6
    16 GB gaming Memory DDR4
    500G SSD

    The laptop does have a slightly better CPU, but the desktop has a much better GPU. I would go for the desktop and upgrade the CPU later on if necessary.

    The thing is, laptops have very limited upgradeability. The laptop does mostly have a better spec, but you can upgrade that desktop to be better than the laptop. The first thing I would do is upgrade that CPU to a Ryzen 5000 series, or add another hard drive or SSD.
