Hey /g/ i'm having a hard decision
Should I buy a Thinkpad p50s or Xiaomi Mi notebook.
I want something to game on while on the go and use it at school. The thinkpad is about $800 for the base model. Xiaomi Mi Notepad is about $750 U.S. The thinkpad, what I like about it is that its has a intel i7 quad core and quadro gpu. The Mi Notebook only has gtx 940mx with 1gb of gddr5 ram but has a pcie ssd.
I also plan to install ElementnaryOS on one of them, depending what im going to buy.

Please, Wang Chen, this is a problem inherent in all ultrabooks, and considering how Xiaomi phones already run pretty hot, this will be no exception.

ThinkPad P50 or P70, depending on your screen size preference.
I would wait on reviews for the Xiaomi. I know I want one myself, but it looks like it could run super hot.

this. the xaiomi looks toog ood to be true especially for a debut. it beats the macbook air everwhere so its pit HAS to be thermals. they may have done something but i wouldnt expect this thing to runcool without an external accesory. (the kind that look dumb but make the laptop cooler and actually comfier)

It could have, I dunno, some proper fucking vents on it?
Air owner here, I've seen people take drills to these things. They're like different machines afterwards.

if you really can get a p50s for that price go for it and don't even think about the mi, thinkpads are kings in durability and this model have probably rooms for expansion and upgrades.
both have similiar gaming performance... but thinkpad have way better cooling
