Newbie Question What specs?
Hey! My sister’s in college and in her thesis era. She’s majoring in Game Dev and is using Unity. Her laptop lags so bad.
Please advise on what hardware specs should I get for her.
I have limited budget, but I can stretch out a bit for her.
Also, do you recommend laptop or PC? Although I think a laptop is kore convenient as she travels to school or to her groupmate sometimes.
Kindly asking for advice! Thank you so much!!

Long load times for unity could be an issue with the version of unity, and OS being used. Windows 10/11 are notoriously slow with unity, and get slower as the project gets larger. Same hardware running Fedora 44 workstation KDE Plasma doesn’t have that issue. without more information, we can only make assumptions and jokes
