Upgrade or replace laptop?

[deci33]

I have a Asus UX32LN from 2015. Besides for the bent back chassis (which is my fault), it is running reasonably well. I upgrade the ram from 4gb to 8gb some years back.

Been thinking of getting a new laptop, but the relatively ok condition of my current one is putting me off, so an alternative is to upgrade the hdd to sdd instead. This option is a lot cheaper.

I do use it for some gaming, but with work taking up my time, I use it more for youtube, fb, and Office apps these days.

Should I invest in a new laptop, or just upgrade the hdd and maybe RAM?

but if new, how much is your budget? and beside that this time going lightweight or normal weight?

for my take is that upgrade what u can and use it till going spoil den buy a new one.

Looking at a razer blade 14 (I hope to play FF15), since I'm looking at my next laptop to have some gaming capability, along with it being as lightweight and small as possible.

Parting with the money, along with the fact that my laptop is running very very well (with the occasional bluescreen) and the fact that I haven't touched a PC game for months, makes it difficult.

I guess I can settle for something with a MX150, but idk if that will stand the test of time when it comes to games.

If you have the budget and wish to have newer stuff, change a new one would be good :3
