Ecomodders still ecomod?! Pics or it never happened! :D

Apparently my desktop has a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 745. I don't know what that is, but I am not impressed.

I absolutely cannot find out how much RAM it has. Google just says "Up to 4GB." Windows doesn't give me any information beyond the name. None of the information Google shows appears in Settings.

Not even my various Nvidia programs tell me how much I have.

I haven't tried playing World of Warcraft on here since I bought the laptop, except one time I tried to check something in-game while I was talking to someone on Zoom and Nvidia reallocated all of my system resources to the game, but Zoom stopped working, so I quit the game.

While I put 32 GB in here and the laptop only has 16, the laptop does everything much faster, so when I have the time to play, I play on my laptop.

I occasionally Gimp on here, but of course it is faster on the laptop.

It looks like I can get a RTX 3050 for around $350 and allegedly it would be almost six times as fast as my desktop GPU.

Allegedly it is also faster than the AMD Ryzen™ 7 4700U in my laptop!

The difference is all CPU?

I really don't want to spend $350 unnecessarily right now!
