    Core Ultra can be really attractive to quite a lot of people though. Its iGPU performance is far better than anything Intel has ever offered in the integrated graphics scene, and the new core architecture seems like it's very efficient, compared to the old Core i3/i5/i7/i9 CPUs.

    #5 - Not many people probably knows about this, but since AMD released FSR the community have already developed an FSR mod which give you basically free fps in your old laptop with old GPUs (like RTX 2000s/3000s, anything below isn't really preferred). I know this because few months ago I was searching for a new laptop (a replacement to my Legion 5 Pro 3060 that I bought 2 years ago) because games have been increasingly demanding, but thanks to this mod it basically extended the lifespan of my aging laptop for like another year or 2. FSR3.1 is also coming this year (integrated into some of the newer titles).

    ​​​​@@HandleIsNewAndBadNot 100% true but I partially agree. If you play AAA games like me you will start to notice that games are catching up with the laptop hardware recently especially my laptop's specs (eg. Horizon FW in my laptop can't consistently keep the fps on 60 average - w/o framegen but with DLSS). I fear that I won't be able to run Ghost of Tsushima aswell. If you play AA or Indie titles then true, you're good for atleast 2 - 5 years more.

I have been watching your videos since 2021 and you have always said that the 3060 was the sweet spot for gaming back until the 4000 series came around. The prices for the 2023 model here are bad and what's even shocking is that the older 2022 and even 2021 models for godsake is still terrible. Literally 1000+$ for an rtx 3060. I still haven't bought a laptop but I feel like my current non gaming one will die out very soon. @@JarrodsTech

    ​@@jupiteruniverse8683I have 3060 HP Omen. It was purchased two years back for 1300 USD. It still works like new. I only play Halo Infinite which it is capable of running at medium settings and high enough frame rates. Game runs well. Heating well controlled. Gaming on a budget. It has only 6 GB VRAM so it cannot run modern heavy graphic titles at fancier high or ultra graphics settings. But still , considering that is a luxury as is gaming in itself, 3060 is alright and I believe need not to spend more, unless one is a professional and does competitive gaming. Medium graphics also look beautiful. If you only have to play games then better get a desktop than a gaming laptop, better performance at lower price.

    Gaming Laptops have improved so they don't die out as they use to buy getting 'cooked'. But Gaming Laptops seem to have motherboard issues to this date. I still think though, that normal notebooks and thin and light laptops are the better choice for most people. Gaming Laptops have rather become very good, but they are clumsy machines and still niche. More a portable desktop. Now even laptops are old school and tablets and smartphones, and may be in future VR are going to be the dominant devices for the masses. Otherwise enthusiasts still build custom PCs.

    I have a 2023 Asus Rog Flow x16 on the way now. I'm upgrading it with better harddrive and more RAM. It has the RTX 4060. My question now is, should I buy the XG Mobile 3080 version, or just "future proof" and go for the obscenely expensive 4090 right away? Or, should I just wait for a newer version to hit the scene? What do you guys think?

    Hi Jarrod, what laptop would you recommend for long term use, I have 2 options one of them is a Lenovo legion 5 pro with 4060 and other is Lenovo legion 5 pro with 3070. The 4060 one is noticeably more expensive. I want to use my laptop primarily for gaming and a little bit of blender as well.

And we're still on Covid pricing, as new cpu's and 50 series gpu's come in, the 40series versions will finally hit 'normal'/proper pricing, it's just silly right now and reflecting their stock position
