New Here! Couple Questions

[Ddef12]

Hello everyone. I am new here. I have been following the game on Facebook and popped in to the forums every now and then. After seeing the amazing stream I decided I going to register here. The attitude is great on these forums!

Now that I am so in love with the game, I was wondering on a couple things. I want to buy early access but I have one main concern. I am in the market for a new computer and looking to buy very soon.

Devs, any idea when we can expect the minimum specs? I plan to shell out a good amount of money and buy either a gaming laptop or gaming desktop

Which brings me to my next question, any suggestions on a good computer? There are so many out there that brand themself as a gaming computer. However most use the Intel integrated graphics with Nvidia and based on my prior experience of this the graphics set up in this manner like to try and work out of the Intel before kicking in with Nvidia chip. So any guidance on a good, reliable gaming laptop would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi Ddef12. A big massive welcome to our family.

The legend Stuk71 took the words out of my mouth.
P.C. Specialists are based in Sheffield, not too far from me. I've bought a couple of P.C.s from them and I can't recommend them enough. They're quick to deliver and very helpful and above all, amazingly cheap. My current rig was £2000 but all the components are all top brands and were the top-end products available at the time. When I individually priced them all on various sites, it was nearly £900 cheaper from P.C. Specialists than if I'd bought the parts and built it myself. And with that, they test it for stability and you get a warranty and guarantee. Plus when the time comes that you want to upgrade, they will come and pick it up and upgrade components so you don't need to buy a full new P.C.
On top of that, there's a brilliant configuratior on their site which guides you through to build your P.C. based on your exact requirements. Also, they specialize in gaming laptops.
So I'd recommend doing a bit of web research and read some reviews and speak to any computer tech people you know to get an idea of what's good for you and then build it on their site. It's always better than buying a ready made laptop as it'll be geared exactly to what you want. You're not spending any money on components or features you don't want or need.
