Would say you need an i7 in a laptop though, desktop i5 quad core is going to be fine.
EDIT; When I went travelling and had to abandon my trusty desktop (desktop always > than laptop) I bought a Dell XPS 15. Use PIO with it daily, coach people with PIO in real time on it, run 200 flop BVB scripts overnight, etc etc, it does the job.

This is just not true... you are not utilising PIO's full potential (in SRP sims) if you run them on 8gb's of ram - I've done the work on this myself, respective to 12gb's of ram, and even then I am still not utilising PIO's full potential

Hey,
I've not been updating here recently as I've been doing my own thing for the last couple months. Figure now is as good a time as any to finally close the thread as I won't be posting anymore updates after this.
Thank you to everyone who chose to follow, even with it being so inconsistent
. I've met some super cool people from this thread who I talk to and study with, they know who they are
.
Really pleased with the work I've put in so far this year, and the progress that I've made. It's been an eye-opening journey, and I've definitely learned a lot about myself which'll help me for the road ahead.
The current plan is to continue with Poker and (hopefully) break into HS's early next year. I was speaking with someone on Skype recently and sometime during I voiced this to him, without hesitation he said "well, you will
actually need to play then", referencing my poor volume, which I now plan to change! So that's the plan: grind 200 and 500 until I have the BR to shot higher (a long with moving out and buying a new PC).
So yeah, HS's, that's where I want - and plan - to get to in the early months of next year. Maybe I am just a dreamer, or maybe I am really onto something. Who really knows. But one things for sure: I shall give it my very best
.
To finish, here's the graph for the year and the breakdown just below.
Cheers guys, and GL!
