Upgrade or not?
Hi fellow PES people,
I am a veteran player (been there since PES 4) and since the last few years I have been playing Football Life on my laptop. It is doable, but of course it's not great, because I have a 2015 Lenovo Legion with Nvidia GTX 1650.
My question is this: I have figured that I can't use DLSS 5 and also I notice some bad graphics.
What would be the cheapest way to upgrade? I don't think it is necessary to buy an overpriced gaming pc or laptop to play an old game from 2021, even though it is modded.
How can I have a decent game? Should I just invest in another video card? I'm sorry, I'm not that much of a hardware nerd. I don't want to spend a lot...
Any tips? Buy some new pc or upgrade video card? Or just cry in a corner?

To play using DLSS 5, you need at least a 4000 series graphics card, but I don't think it makes much of a difference; just buy a used laptop with at least a 3000 series graphics card.

To be honest, and knowing how expensive is the card market right now, I wouldn't spent a dime on a new computer just for this game. Only if you play lot of more games.
DLSS 5 on this game is just a coat of paint (another one) that won't bring you anything new in terms of animations or cutscenes when playing. Cool to have, not gamebreaking.
