    Question Does anyone know a site that can use specs that you choose and approximate what FPS you'll get with certain settings in a game?

    Might anyone also know a site like userbenchmark that can compare different laptops/PC specs all at once without having to individually compare each spec?

    I was going to get a gtx 1660 but I'm not entirely sold when I can get the gtx 1650S for £40 less so I'm not sure if it's worth the slight upgrade or if there's any better cards around £150ish they'd also be appreciated
