I have a Sony Vaio VPCEE42FX that requires 4.7 Amps And 19.5V for proper charging. However, my old charger broke and I found a new aftermarket Targus charger... but the amperage for it is 4.6 amps. Is it safe to use this charger with normal computer use? However, I do a bit of gaming as well, but I'm not so sure about gaming with this charger, as it could potentially damage my PC's hardware. Should I use this charger? After all, it's the only one I have...

Thanks in advance.

If the only difference is 0.1 amps, you should be alright. The laptop only draws what it needs anyway. In most cases, the laptop is not going to draw the maximum the adapter can handle. That 0.1 amperage difference is probably in the margin of error anyway.
