I have been using as my only machine a T530 uninterrupted (think 10h/day uptime) since Nov 2012, both as a desktop replacement and to carry it around. I had to replace its motherboard recently but it was my fault as I put it in too enclosed of a space and overheated/burned it. Aside from a bit of fan noise, it's still going strong. It's definitely underspecced wtr to graphics nowadays, but still able to run things like League of Legends smoothly with just the integrated chip. Happy to answer questions about it if anyone is interested.
- kinow 5y agoMy only machine too since... 2015 I think? Replaced an old Dell inspiron, been running great with containers, IntelliJ, Jupyter Lab, dual monitor. Only Blender 3.0 doesn't work too well due to the old version of cuda. Other than that, never had any issues.
- jrockway 5y agoDoes League have demanding hardware requirements? It's older than that laptop.
- pdimitar 5y agoCan't give you a good informed answer but I've seen friends play League on like 8 different machines -- all very unimpressive in terms of specs. I have to say, League is one of the very best games out there in terms of optimization and modest sipping of resources. Shame about the community though; fairly toxic and demanding (IMO) and that's why I'll never play it. But the game itself is a technical marvel.
