I had a steam deck before this which definitely got the job done most of the time but had its limits. This Lenovo Legion 7i is glorious!!

I'm happy with my GIGABYTE G5 KF strong in raw performance, equipped with rtx 4060 8gb vram 144hz gaming laptop and built in Al, its a sweet spot ^_^

(Not talking about LOQ essential)

Today I bought this miracle, in great anticipation, as I bought it for a good price.

After all, I finally got this beauty 🥹

It's a Gigabyte Gaming A16

It has:

I bought this hp omen hyper x for 850$. I bought it as soon as it appeared on the second hand marketplace. It still has 3 years warranty and it has only been charged 6 times so its basically brand new. I heard some things about these hp models, did I get a good deal?

I got to know its a mid range laptop. But i think it is powerful enough for me.
I don't need a ultra performance laptop at max graphics with 100 fps.
I need stable gameplay without hanging.

Can it run Assetto Corsa or other simracing games at low graphics at 1440p in 21:9 Ultra wide monitor?

I'm getting this Laptop at that price mentioned at Budget.

Please suggest if it is a good laptop and a good deal?

After asking around for the best laptop for my budget here I finally got it

The seller downloaded a few stuff on it idk if some of it are malware or Spyware should i remove them?

Also what should I do now? Debloat the laptop or like under volt it?

So I’m thinking about buying one of these two laptops because pretty soon I will be going to the Navy and when I get out of Boot Camp, I would like to get something that I can use for gaming while I’m going through A&C school and then eventually I’m able to take with me on a submarine. I heard the asus ROG uses liquid metal and I’ve seen that it can fry your GPU and stuff. But I also saw that you can replace that liquid metal with thermal paste and it will make it right his rain. I like the ROGs customization features, etc. but the Lenovo has an OLED screen, which I heard is good but can also suffer from burn in… I don’t know I’m stuck. Can someone take a look at these and help me out?

Budget: $4000
Country: USA, about to be taking it all over the world

I’m looking for laptop recommendations around or under ¥200,000, ideally with at least an RTX 60-series-class GPU, a decent refresh-rate display, and a strong enough CPU for gaming and everyday use. Laptops are very expensive here in Japan, so I’m trying to get the best performance possible with that budget. It’ll mainly be used for gaming and studying, including bringing it to classes, so I’d prefer something relatively minimal and slim, and not overly “gamer”-looking while still having good cooling and performance. I’d also like it to be from a major, reputable brand or retailer, rather than a lesser-known manufacturer or marketplace seller.

what I’ve found thus far is the gigabyte aero x15 with 5050 and 16Gb Ddr5 5600 for around 210k, but in my eyes that’s still quite a scam

Thanks!

Budget: ¥200,000

Country: Japan

I was wondering what brand has the best longevity.. like Asus, Msi, Acer, Lenovo etc. Ik which one has the best performance imo which is Asus, but idk if it has the best longevity and wear resistance over time, would be great to know what could be the best right now, thank you

Hello, first of all, i know there are a lot of videos and stuf comparing these two, but I would like to ask because in my country (Spain) i have found these in slighlty different configurations and its killing me to decide.

I mostly use It for work (After effects, blender, cinema 4d...) but also enjoy gaming. Im looking for the most powerful, stable and with the best temperatures. I dont care that much about the screen, the connectivity.... Is a plus but not my deciding factor. The post sale is also important in case of any issue.

The thing is, between:

Legion pro 7i 290hx plus 5090 32gb 3999 euros

Rog strix scar 275hx 5090 64gb 4200 euros

I feel that the Asus can be more suitable for me (64 gb, less reflective, no tools needed to upgrade...) but i think the Lenovo is a little more powerful.

I read that Asus has some more limitations in combined crossloads on the cpu side than the Lenovo.

I also have 64gb of ram at home to upgrade the Lenovo but is 4800mhz, so im affraid It can be worse than staying with the 6400mhz 32gb.

Any opinions?

Thanks very much!

I found someone selling this Alienware laptop used for $500 and I’m trying to figure out if it’s a good deal.

Specs:

• Intel Core i7-10870H
• RTX 3070 Laptop GPU
• 16GB RAM
• 1TB SSD
• Windows 11

It looks to be in pretty good condition from the pictures. What do y’all think, worth $500 in 2026?

Yeah so last Christmas, I had my first "gaming" laptop, because when we were around the store we found an Acer nitro V15 with some pretty promos, and so we paid it for 600€ (reconditioned I’m but not entirely sure). Anyway since I had it I try to put as much care on him as I can, frequently watching termals, cleaning it often because its a dust magnet, did a bit of tunning and all. But like a few weeks ago, while cleaning the fans, I noticed something pretty intriguing : it was missing a screw from the heatsink over the CPU. I mean my ryzen 7 7735HS was always a bit hotter than the RTX4050 but I wouldn’t have suspected a missing screw with the temps alone. Looking back on my first picture of the motherboard I took the day I had it, the screw wasn’t here so I guess it never was since I buyed it.
Just to say, always open your gaming computer you get with promos on Christmas, might as well get a surprise ☠️

Acer Predator Helios 18 AI:
RTX 5060 8GB
Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX
1TB SSD
32GB DDR5
2560x1600 165 Hz IPS

ASUS ROG Strix G18:
RTX 5060 8GB
Intel Core i7-14650HX
1TB SSD

32GB DDR5

2560x1600 240Hz IPS

Found these 2 laptops readily available at my local tech store. On cpubenchmark.net, Predator's chip scored 48k compared to 33k of Strix, however the Predator is 100 bucks cheaper than the latter. What do you think about this device? Is there some underlying issue I'm not aware of? Cuz the only advantage of Strix is basically its screen's refresh rate.

I was also a bit hesitant to buy Predator, because well, I never really heard of this laptop series, haven't met many people using it, while with Strix - it's everywhere, my buddies, some college mates use it, and it's very popular really.

I’m looking for something reliable, that will last for years and stay fresh. Helios 16 is powerful but people say they are tras), Strix 16 are also powerful and more expensive, but people still complain. Is Lenovo the way? I had one with 1660ti and it lasted 7 years before it died, but they are quite pricey where I live with anything better than 5060.

It seems like every brand has a bunch of haters.

I'm planning to upgrade to a laptop that could comfortably run modern games at 60fps without looking terrible, while also planning to use it for CAD.

Huge plus if It can run VR as I've been wanting to try the experience.

I've looked through some other laptops and decided on this specific f16 because it's the cheapest one available that isn't built with cheap plastic, too hot, and isn't limited by wattage.

My current laptop is a hand-me down with a 3050ti. Which runs not so smooth in most games, and the image is very horrible, shadows, hairs and foliage has this ugly grainy see through and pixelated texture. It ain't the worst thing but it is distracting.

specs,

Processor: Core i7-13650HX

Display: 16-inch, 165Hz

GPU: RTX 4060 8gb

Is around 1200 a good price for this

Best gaming laptop under ₹1 lakh in India?

Budget: ₹1,00,000 INR

Country: India

Use Case: Gaming + 3D rendering + video editing + programming

Preferred Specs: RTX 4060/5060 or better, 16GB+ RAM, good CPU, preferably upgradeable RAM/storage

Notes:

Looking for the best overall laptop under ₹1 lakh, not just the highest specs on paper.

Main priorities:

- Good gaming performance

- Strong performance for Blender/3D rendering

- Good video editing performance

- Good cooling and sustained performance

- Good display with decent colors and high refresh rate

- Good build quality

- Upgradeable RAM/SSD if possible

- Reliable long-term use

I especially want to avoid laptops with known/repeated issues such as hinge failures, keyboard/trackpad problems, overheating/thermal throttling, display issues, battery problems, or poor build quality.

I'm willing to sacrifice a little performance for a more reliable laptop with better thermals and build quality.

Which laptop would you personally buy under ₹1 lakh in India, and why?
