I'm basically in a pickle right now. I have been doing all my PC gaming on laptops. My last one, a Dell, is dying and I'm looking to replace it, but with all the rigs coming out, I just don't know where to aim, either a laptop or a desktop. I would just like to see some suggestions maybe computer brands or models. I'm looking for a really good desktop or laptop. I just don't know what the hell to get....Help, anyone?
definetly get a desktop. Tons'o'performance at less cost and it's upgradeable. I recomend building your own because it's cheaper and it's really not that hard.
This is the desktop I just made for $1350(CAD): X1950 XT, E6400 Core 2 Duo CPU, 1gb of RAM, intel p5b motherboard, 250 gb maxtor hdd, sony floppy drive, lg cd/dvd drive, enermax psu(i wanted an antec but they were sold out), and a nzxt trinity case. the tax is included in the final price BTW.
It's really a matter of what you need it to do - if you need to be able to carry it around with you or you don't have a ton of room where you want to stick it, go with a laptop. You can get a cheaper desktop that will perform better, though, it's just up to you how much you value size and portability.
i would choose a gaming desktop...since its upgradable rather than having to by a new gaming laptop every year b/c the game requirements are too high for ur current laptop...
If the laptop can play games that desktops can at the highest settings, then i prefer laptops. Its nice to be able to game no matter where you are.TheDarthvader
Although the drawback of a powerful laptop is the poor battery life that you will have.
