Need rec for good gaming laptop!
Hi guys, my old gaming laptop just broke after a beautiful 6 year run, and I’m looking for a better one going forward. I’m looking for ones that can support new, advanced graphics games like oblivion remastered, etc. my old one would often have to use a lower graphic settings, or simply could not run games like that at all.
I know very little about computers but have been playing games my whole life so I’m looking for an upgrade that will better support advanced modern games.
I’d say my absolute maximum budget is 2000, though I’d ideally like something less expensive if it’s still a hardy computer. So probably would prefer around the 1500 range but not if it’s awful.
Thank you!

what to do with old laptops that still work fine?
for context, I have this thinkpad t400 that works just fine and works really goos, but I have no idea what to do with it. I currently use it for word and due to the fact it has a fingerprint reader, but I have no idea what to do with it except for that (I have a pc that I installed arch on it anf use it for everything else). I was thinking, since it has a finverprint reader, to actually put a complicated password on it and store some data on it, but ehhhhhh, I also want to use it normally but 2h battery life and windows 7. Any ideas to what I can do with it except ms office? (I hate libreoffice, openoffice wont install and google docs is weird. The version of office I have is office 2003, that I have from Internet archive)

Laptop on but screen isnt turing on
When I turn on my laptop when its not plugged in it turns on but the screen doesnt, a hard reset seems to work after a few attempts (while plugged in) but I hear people saying turning a laptop off by the power button is bad and i have done that a lot bc of this problem. I think this all happened bc while i was updating my gpu drivers something got messed up and it would go to the start up menu and as soon as i do my password it shuts down but this got fixed but is now happening again after i tried to update my gpu drivers but i accidentally restarted my laptop. I checked everything inside it all seemed fine and im about ready to raise a white flag and take it to a repair shop. I have also hard that updating bios should permanently fix this problem but I havent tried that.

How much RAM?
I need it to be able to run quickbooks, email, shop monkey, and stream a few cameras from the shop in another state at the same time. Nothing else really.
How much RAM for this? 16? 32?
Thanks!
