Why does almost every gaming laptop look like an autistic children's toy?
Yeah, I get that a large part of the market is spoiled rich kids who don't know anything about PCs,
but what about for professional contractors who have to travel pretty much 100% of their time for their careers?
Gigabyte seems to be the only brand that I know of that actually keeps their design on the down low, but I heard their reliability was questionable.
It's shocking how few options there are out there for professional looking laptops with a solid GPU.
Because gaming is for autistic children

Then what if your job requires extensive video or graphics editing? Or engineering drawing software?
You need a serious GPU to pull that shit off, and nothing outside of gaming laptops can handle it.

A lot of business dells and thinkpads come with workstation-type mobile graphics cards
workstation graphics cards are not the same as gaming graphics cards. They typically cost more, though, so poorfag engineers and designers use gaming cards instead

The fuck you're talking about nigger?
There is plenty of mobile workstation laptops out there, you just look like another kid who only know geforce and radeon cards.

They typically are the same, aside from a few small differences.
Remember awhile back when you could take a consumer nVidia card and add a jumper, or remove a resistor or something, and it would identify and work as a workstation card?

Yeah but without the ECC memory you would get tons of memory errors, artifacting, etc
Workstation cards need to be 100% reliable and drivers make sure of that, that's why you get better performance on cad software than games on them while gaming doesn't require perfect calculations.

Mobile workstations are even more overpriced than gaming laptops.
The price to performance ratio is fucking ridiculous even compared to gaming laptops.
>>54505133
They are often similar but without ECC memory and canonical openGL support.
Many CAD applications (SolidWorks in particular) will not unlock full hardware acceleration on a gaming card, only a workstation one.

Honestly, what are you expecting with a response like that? I doubt you talk to people like that irl, and you'll keep spreading the gamer stereotype
If you turn the LEDs off nobody can tell it's a GAMING laptop
The only thing that gives this things powerlevel away is the 17" display.

workstations do more than play gaymes
they need to be user serviceable
they need to be easy to service
excellent 5 year onsite and accidental damage warranties
mandatory support for a variety of standards (VGA, fingerprints, smartcards, Ethernet)
support for Workstation GPUs (better OpenCL and FP64 performance)
be actually durable
not to mention the motherboard probably also supports business-end crap like BIOS passwords that are persistent throughout total power loss.
surprise surprise, those features cost more

Everyone can tell its a gaming laptop because it's not a nondescript black box.
Alienwares et al. all look edgy as shit and you know this.

You should get a three day ban for this idiotic thread.
gaming on laptop is retarded ergo all gaming laptops look retarded.
Just get a fucking Clevo, how hard is it to research this shit on your own, OP?
