"gaming laptop" is a lie. it should be called portable desktop.

  • can't go anywhere that doesn't have a power outlet

  • more fragile than a teacup

  • sounds like a jet engine

  • about as hot too

  • will be the heaviest thing you carry

  • despite how much power you have for running basically any game imaginable, you're realistically just going to use a web browser for youtube 80% of the time

  • just like a real desktop.

I'll die on this hill, and I got a desktop recently. A laptop serves its purpose well enough, and a gaming laptop is still far more portable than a desktop. I had a gaming laptop for a long time, and it's all true (all true!), but you can't put a desktop into a backpack (along with a monitor and keyboard). I needed the portability of a laptop for a long time and hooray I don't need it anymore. :) Merry Christmas Eve
