I don’t really “need” an upgrade, as I use it less frequently than I used to these last few years, and my 2020 model still works fine. But it has been almost 6 years since I purchased it, so I’m wondering if it’s worth upgrading now. Especially since I don’t think things will get cheaper any time soon with parts prices going up. I have been getting a bunch of gpu crashes recently since I started back playing Ark Survival Ascended, but not sure if it’s the game itself as it’s known for its issues. But I haven’t really had any issues outside of that.

Would the 2025 model be worth it? I saw in some reviews that it can get really hot and loud. Is it worse than the 2020 model? Or should I look into getting something else entirely? I don’t really need portability.

I’m on an official Pve Raganarok server, and suddenly had a message in red at the top. It said something like , “server detected weapon shoulder dragon”. I couldn’t read it clearly because I was in the middle of killing some dilos at the time. But has anyone seen this message before? Anyone knows what it mean? I’ve only recently started playing ASA, but have played ASE for years and have never seen this.
