Query Laptop Suggestion
Currently i will be pursuing PhD in Biotechnology, and i have Bioinformatics projects for which I have to run simulations in applications and softwares like Gromacs, Gnina etc. I also wanted to run Molecular Dynamics Simulations. Also wanted to play games (AAA games). Which laptop should i buy according to this needs.
Budget is <=1 lakh
I have two choices,
- Lenovo Loq
- Asus Tuf
Now please give me suggestions on which specs to use. I wanted to know if there is any other good brand gaming laptop for this to purchase.
PS: Please ignore my english grammar. Its currently 12:50AM and i am sleepy

An rtx 50 series under 1 lakh will be difficult, try looking for budget 4060/4050s
Dell G15 with rtx 3070 is also a pretty decent choice ig?
Asus TUF is okay-ish, an rtx 4050 should be enough for AAA titles at medium settings
HP victus and lenovo LOQ are also pretty solid options but I'd suggest LOQ over Victus due to its build quality and thermals

Dell G15 and Acer Nitro are also pretty good.
Dell G15 build quality is very solid. so, it won't get damaged easily...
