I spent a little more and got a 3070 130w laptop. It's only like 15% faster but the extra 2gb of vram I feel will make a big difference in the long term and I keep my computers for 5 years at the minimum. I bought it to retire my older gtx 1070 gaming laptop.

I have a 5900x, 64gb ram, 3070 and 144hz ultrawide desktop PC, so I wasn't trying to get a desktop replacement laptop ... but a few months ago I got a Lenovo Legion 7 Slim with a Ryzen 7 5800h, 16gb, 500gb NVME, RTX 3060 and 1440p 165hz IPS screen for £1100. It's mostly for work, but I play a few games when I travel too. I've been very impressed with it so far, and since I play Cyberpunk 2077 on my big rig the laptop mostly plays StarCraft 2, Civilisation VI, Mass Effect Legendary Edition and it runs these at max settings 1440p flat out whilst in power saving mode, meaning it's cool and fairly quiet. I only need to turn it up to balanced mode and it runs the Witcher 3 nearly maxed out at 1440p well over 60fps. Laptop hardware has come a really long way for efficiency and performance in only a couple of generations...

First of, great video. I think you are one of the rarest to actually understand what "budget" looks like and to give a fair assessment of what a budget gaming pc can do. As for the computers themselves, though I understand that a lot of money making these goes into the high end parts, I'm still baffled to see plastic everywhere at like 1700€, which makes your PC look cheap even when you already paid the price of three PS5/Series X for it. Is there a technical reason why you wouldn't want a metal casing for these beasts? Does this has to do with the thermals or is it just to save on manufacturing costs? (genuine question)

Just found this video and can i say the best one ive seen. I’m new to PC/Laptop gaming and trying to find a decent starter/midrange. Not going to be playing the latest AAA games on ultra but want something i can use for the next couple of years and the way you broke this down and explained what’s important is great. Other channels just waffle through CPU and GPU like we all know what is what with the naming conventions but you made it seem easier to follow. So thank you. (Still dont know what laptop I’m going to get haha)

Still loving my last year's Aorus 15G, RTX 3060, i7 10870H at 105W. Excellent build quality and more than enough gaming power to run Tomb Raider / Guardians of the Galaxy style games for a good few years yet 👌

Жыл бұрын

@@wahebskull I was undecided between the ASUS ROG G15 and the Aorus 15G back when I bought the laptop, what sold it to me with the Aorus was the dual channel RAM slots and MUX switch, where as the ASUS had a fixed RAM slot so you could only upgrade one RAM card and no MUX switch. As well, it was the availability of stock as the pandemic hit supply chains hard so many specific products were difficult to get hold of. At the end of the day, it's personal preference, from screens to CPU power, what you look for in a gaming laptop, how you will use it in daily tasks and the types of games you play, are they competitive or RPG's. Realistically, an RTX 3070 would have been my preference for the games I play like Tomb Raider and A Plague Tale, but prices back then were still high as the 30 series GPU's were newly released, but honestly and RTX 3060 and above is powerful enough, bearing in mind the wattage. Know what you want first, then decide on the laptop. Think he made a video on this too, but from what I've experienced through many reviews, I'd go for an ASUS ROG, Lenovo Legion, MSI or Gigabyte/Aorus.

No warranty, goodbye money. My fault, for not getting it. So get the warranty, it's worth it. You never know where they cut the corners, just that they did

Hi pc centric. Currys in the UK are offering the g5 for 700 quid and it's got a 11400 and a 3060 in it. Would you say thats a bargain and one I should go for. I was looking as high as a legion 5 Pro with a 70ti and a 12700. It is twice as much though. Would you say its worth twice as much for the admittedly not insignificant performance increase. I'm not sure. What do you think?

You are really good at this

Actually the acer nitro 5 does have an Rgb keyboard setting (press the nitro button and go to keyboard settings you can change colors, make it rgb, change the speed along with direction of the colors, and you can change the keyboard brightness)

So if we consider i7 12700H and 3070ti laptop, why not consider something like MSI GP66? It's for 1,5k right now and had one of the highest fps in games compared to other similar spec laprops due to power allocation. GPU on that thing can use 150W and that took the FPS to 3080 levels. And if we're already there, why not consider GE66 or even GE67(but this one come close to Aorus 17 price, but it's OLED 240HZ!!). TBH, I'm a bit lost at the available options. There's also Legion 5i Pro with same specs but apparently better build quality. Lot's of options to consider nowadays

Where do i found the discount and sales bro.

you know, on Ebay there's a German shop (ab-zauberfuchs) selling like-new Acer Nitro 5s (they tell me they're show models from stores), and I bought one from them a few weeks ago. A little over 900 euros for a 17.3 inches Nvidia 3060 AMD 5600H 16 GB ram Laptop. I don't think you can beat those prices anywhere, at least right now, even if prices ARE admittedly going down on average. Only annoyance is the german keyboard, and MAYBE the fan being a bit loud, though I don't really care about it. And there were quite a few different models, with worse or better GPUs/CPUs/RAM and so on. It's amazing going from struggling with 30 FPS on 720p (old laptop had an NVIDIA 850m GPU) to 144 fps on 1080p. (of course it depends on the game, and my favourite ones are not particularly demanding. I'm currently playing Trails of Cold Steel 3 and "Lost in Random") I agree that, especially for a "main gaming computer" laptop that has to last a few years, an NVIDIA 3060 is probably what people should go for.

I have still my msi gt 60 from 2013. 3 ssd and 1 hdd for a total of 1,6 TB of space, 26 go ram. I had to replace the burned gtx 780m with oem one and battery. The first gpu lasted from 2013 to 2018. Nvidia gave up drivers support in 2019. 3 ssd's, 1 hdd. A pretty neat 15" back in time and the gpu was a great bang. I paid around 1500-1800€ ( add to the two 256 gb ssd's ) A thick but beautiful shaped laptop ( 17" now are about the same displacement ) survived windows 8. 8.1 and 10 upgrades without any major flows. Just have to correct a blue screen due to ssd driver problem with motherboard on ac unity. But google made the way. More amazing, i was able to play Battlefront 2 multiplayer with the integrated Intel graphics when i wait the new gpu. Back in 2013 it was the most powerfull mobile gpu and 15" machine. When prices were still correct. Until sli configs, titan and crazy 5000€ laptops arrived. Would i buy again a laptop ? I don't know' i would go for the ticker one and best GPU to have a longlasting Laptop. I will keep it mine until windows 10 end of support in 2025 and maybe switch to Apple Mac book pro. It is a brillant support but Nvidia stopped the support in 2019 is really bad, only 6 years after release, it's shamefull. So 2020 games are not launching and/or unplayable. It was a time when a 15" laptop outperform the unreleased next gen console that were PS4 and xbox one and that is the only time i think it ever happened. Pros : - good times with friends on lan/online parties - a poserfull editing video machine on the go - upgrade with ssd's and ram and reparability for GPU and battery - very good build quality, everything works 9 years after - a lot a connectivity that made a good desktop replacement machine Cons : - noisy if you want performance, ok alone with noise canceling headphones, bad for your surrounded people - heavy - Thick - Poor battery life on performance - Nvidia support stopped after 6 years

For many MAC users like me, a reasonably priced gaming laptop is essential for enjoying my favorite older PC titles. A current gen console is great for enjoying new AAA games but many of my favorite older titles on the spectrum between terrible and unplayable on a console. One of my good friends is in the same boat. We both have MacBooks that we use for work so I don't particularly care about the overall build quality of the gaming laptop, or about it having other frivolous features. My friend does not have room for a second desktop setup so he got an MSI laptop with an i5,16GB of Ram, 500GB SSD, and a 3060 on sale for about $900.

I bought a MacBook. I regret. Limit photos you can send via airdrop - you send from iPhone 500 photos, you get 350 on MacBook. No iOS games, no Netflix app. All we have to do through the browser. Closing app twice - window and dock. No even old games. It's not for me. I waste money for a laptop to simple things. It's hilarious. I know it's MacOS but Windows is better.

Your comment is right! I miss old RPG gothic series, Hitman, Half Life 2, SWAT 4 + Syndicate..

@@damianwojcikiewicz3951 I was using my PC for work the other day because my Mac was out of commission. I also realized how much I miss using windows for productivity. There are so many quality of life features that are just missing from Mac OS. A simple one is being able to view the entire file path in the attachment window in outlook. I love the build quality of my Mac and it is great at being a laptop but the PC is a better overall computer.

Are you using "stock" or optimized versions of the Laptops? Because my g15 with better hardware performs worse than your 3060 but with optimizations..

My hp elite book 1040 G5 works just fine for me, i dont plan on upgrading anytime soon but if i should upgrade 1040 G8.... Hp are so good and lovely, their security is really good.

I got a refurbised zephyrus g14 (3060 version) for 800 flat. Always go for the open box, refurbished, or gently used options. I'm expecting the laptop next Wednesday, and if there is anything wrong I'll use eBay's 30-day return guarantee as always.

How do you know if the laptop is really just a refurbished, open box, or gently used option? Compare to lets say, laptop that was used to mine crypto?

@@irulannaba6970 Well, using a gaming laptop to mine crypto is a waste of money.

hello @PC centric im selling my 3070 3700x 16gb desktop for a laptop but I want almost the same performance if not more is a 3070ti 140w i7-12700H 16gb laptop gonna do just that? its the msi crosshair one

I bought the Asus Rog strix G15 because I had a good deal for it and every other laptop in the price range only had ryzen 5 /i5 CPUs with 512gb storage and 8gb ram but the one I got has 1tb SSD and 16gb ram with ryzen 7 so it's a pretty good deal it doesn't have a camera so the professors will have to do with my shitty webcam and the keyboard layout isn't perfect they could've used the space a bit better had they pushed the keyboard all the way to the side they could've fitted a numpad on it easily (like on the ,,cheaper" (although in this case more expensive) Tuf series. About the rtx 3050 I don't think I'll have issues with games in my desktop I've had 1050ti for 5-6? Years now and it still runs everything wonderfully in 1080p 144hz, only real issue is the weight as the laptop is kitted with a thick fan system and a heavy power brick so carrying it around in my bag feels like I'm carrying bricks

Man, I just got a Steal of Deal! Picked up an Asus G14 Ryzen 5800HS and RTX 3060 for $799!! I upgraded the RAM from 12Gb to 24Gb and the SSD from 512Gb to a nice 1Tb . It plays everything so well at native 1080p I might drop a 2/4Tb SSD in there. I absolutely love it. Still, playing everything at native 4k completely maxed out on my XFX 7900 XTX (3GHz:) and 5950x is still amazing, obviously. For a little bitty laptop though, I'm amazed 👏

The evolution of price and specs is fast. I bought a Laptop 7 years ago for £1600 with a GTX 965m. Now upgrading to a used MSI Katana with RTX 3060 for £400 ☠️

well... is not just about the graphic card

Hey Marcus hope you having a good day and also I can’t decide between getting a 3080 12gb for my new build or go With a 6800xt instead any advice ?

There’s a plethora of videos out there comparing the two as they aren’t new cards. Start with those and use them to make YOUR OWN assessment and decision.

If you've got the money get the 3080. If you wanna save a few hundred get the 6800xt.

I have a gaming desktop but a laptop is much easier to bring around (despite my own gaming desktop being able to fit in a hand carry its not a slouch either 3080 ti and 5600x.) i know people dont have too much disposable income but I buy laptops that dont look big and ugly. Unfortunately the cheaper ones are like that.

Hi. What case did you use for your pc build that fits in a hand carry ? What are your specs? As I’m looking to make a small build.

I bought an MSI Titan GT75 four years ago, 8gig GTX1080... still game on it, even new AAA games run at max settings flawlessly $3600. worth every penny

One thing almost no one knows is the graphics cards are about 20% weaker in the laptops compared to the same cards in the desktops due to the power supply.

i think a lot of ppl know this. With the 4060 its not even 20 percent:))

i've got a asus 15 tuf and got it for 1100$ and i'm super happy with it, performin great and probably the best computer that i have ever used!

I am 2 for 2 of buying an $899 Asus Laptop every 5 years. my 2015 laptop was kinda obsolete about when I bought it being a 2 core 4t "i7" with an 840m gpu but my 2020 laptop still kicks ass and will likely keep me happy until 2025 being a 4800H (8c/16t) with a rtx 2060.

Always keep looking for discounts as the gf63 thin would cost 850 euro without discount and 800 with the discount shown in the video. Though I've currently managed to find an MSI katana gf66 with an i5 11th gen, FHD IPS 144hz display, rtx3050 ti, 16gb ram for nearly the same price. Stores are cycling through deals every week so keep an eye on it.

Just picked up a laptop for my sister. Its the Alienware M17 with a 6850M XT (12GB) and Ryzen 6900HX, 16 GB of RAM, 1TB m.2 SSD and 1080p 360HZ 17.3 inch display for 1,323USD. Dell was having some nice sales. 900 off retail price plus another coupon for 27 off using honey. Origin was also having a sale on their Desktop replacement that had a desktop CPU(i7-11700K) and 3080 (16GB) ,4K screen for 1364. I thought about buying that but its a bit bulky and might crush her. just checked and sale is still up as of now for the New EON17-X. I think the thing runs at 300 watts so plenty of power for the CPU and GPU.

Why aren't KZreadrs like yourself not recommending refurbished and outlet laptops? I got a 2021 Alienware M17 R4 with a 360hz refresh panel, full numerical, and rgb per keyboard, with a 3070, i7 10th gen, 16gb ram, and 1 TB ssd for 1400$ after tax. After selling my 2012 M17xR4, which I originally got for 400$, for that 400$ back I only spent 1000$ for a year old 3600$ laptop.

Lenovo ideapad gaming 3 with Ryzen 5 5600H and GeForce Rtx 3050Ti with upgradeable 8Gb memory and 250gb ssd has to be the best overall laptop you can get for the price imo they are currently $800 but best buy has a deal for $530 rn

Hey I have a question. I am buying a PC, so should I go with the more expensive but better GPU or a significantly cheaper but lightly worse GPU, especially GTX 1560 vs RTX 3050?

Sounds like you're trying to buy a pre-built PC. DON'T!! They usually suck and have heating issues. Get RX 6600 instead of RTX 3050.
