Create a fresh computer without consuming all your internet bandwidth overnight.
I’m helping you manage your gaming setup and data usage. You want to avoid using all your internet data in one night while transferring large game files. Since most of your games are on Steam and you have over 200GB, consider moving them to an external drive or cloud storage instead of copying everything directly. For folders spread across multiple locations, organize them into a single backup folder before transfer. This way, you can stream or download the files without overloading your connection.
Save the games you enjoy most, postpone the rest until your reward is unlocked.
Based on the games, some prefer Bioshock and GTA to be synced to the cloud. I’d just search for the game saves and transfer them. Copying your hard drive might create problems for you and the buyer of the laptop.
Steam offers a backup feature that generates an ISO file. You choose which games you wish to move, save that image to a storage device, and then set it up on your new operating system.
