Hello,
What laptop to use for ETS2 and Promods and some truck and other mods on high graphics .
I'm no computer expert and don't know a lot about specs on laptops.
The reason I want to use a laptop is because I'm not home a lot. Normally I'm 2 to 3 weeks away from home with my truck.
Hope this is the right place to ask this question.
Thanks Haye
What kind of laptop to play ETS2 with Promods.

Get an i7 core laptop with a built-in Geforce GTX950M or higher, minimum of 8GB of RAM and an SSD drive.
There are plenty of laptops that now have GTX960, 970 or even faster cards built-in.
I have an Acer Nitro VN7 with a GTX950M and it runs very well

Doesn't have to be over the edge. I play with a 1GB GT650M laptop with 8GB RAM and i7 and never lag (I use medium graphics but make the scale higher to 110% and set a few settings to high). I guess the I7 helps

Thanks for the reactions.
A question to laptop users. Do any of you use Nvidia Inspector running ETS2/ATS? I've tried using it and my frames went down to 15-20. Without using it I can achieve 50-60 frames no problem and setttings are on high but I would like to get rid of the jagged edges. I know It won't run quite as perfect as my desktop because a laptop isn't quite as powerful as a desktop. I have a ASUS ROG laptop. I7, 860M, 16GB RAM. Just wondering if someone has some ideas for optimal settings in Nvidia Inspector without it being laggy.
