what do you prefer for gaming?
pic related, is my laptop
>>
I have both...

A Dell Latitude 3540 with a R9 265x and an AMD FX 8120 desktop that still runs the games I need. I am considering upgrading the GPU on it eventually though. But it isn't that bad if you get them spaced apart like you get during one year and get the 2nd one the next.

Sure if you want to have a heavy, overheating, underpowered, non upgradeable piece of shit.

Tell me, where are you going to go with you're gaymen laptop? No one gives a shit about your shitty games.

Just a reminder; anything with 'gaming' as it's prefix is inherently shit.

Now go back to /v/

So I just went ahead and bought the Dell Inspiron 15 7559.

I'm VERY interested to see how it turns out. I got the $850 model with a Intel Core i7 (6th Gen @3.50Ghz), 8gb Ram, a 4GB Nvidea GTX 960m, and a 1080p display. That's insane for the money, and I'm really interested in how it will turn out.

I will let you guys know in the future if it's too good to be true. I already know that they supposedly have had to cut back on the build quality for the price it is at, so we will see.

>Pay 800 dollars for a gaming desktop you build yourself
Will max out pretty much any game at 40 FPS, minimum.
>Pay 800 dollars for a gaming laptop
Can't max out World of Warcraft at 30 FPS.

What does /g/ think of lightweight laptops with external GMOs for ~gaming power~?
>>
>>51974581
I'm 100% in the desktop camp. I had some great laptops over the years, but my desktop is almost seven years old and still chugging along nicely. I just swap out the video card every three years or so and it does everything I want.

I don't really see any reason for a gaming laptop.
The peripherals for desktops are simply better, I can get the same power for less money and I only play games when I am at home anyway, so there is no reason for me to have it portable.

I guess it would be different if I had to move around a lot or some shit like that.

I was gonna buy the i5 version but look at the customer review http://m.dell.com/mt/www.dell.com/uk/p/inspiron-15-5559-laptop/pd?oc=cn55907&model_id=inspiron-15-5559-laptop&fl=m&&un_jtt_redirect

They are so bad and it's reviews directly from Dell too, so I went with an AMD Toshiba laptop with r6 instead

kek, really dude

>I only play games when I am at home anyway
Thats why you don't see the reason. I bring my laptop at school and between classes I often game or even during classes if I already went through the subject before. I also bring it at friends places and something game while chilling.
