Hello /g/. I have a question of what system I should buy or

If you're looking to get the most value out of your system, a Razer Blade is not the way to go. Anything thin and pretty will be extremely overpriced and under powered, even as far as gaming laptops go.

If you want the most value in a gaming laptop outright, your best bet is Sager. If you want something that supports eGPU's I'd probably say Alienware. Their external graphics adapter costs significantly less than Razer's solution.

>>56552269
Well, what with Nvidia putting full-fat desktop GPUs into laptops from now on, the external GPU thing is basically dead on arrival, as you no longer have to compromise. Performance benchmarks are within a 5% margin of the desktop equivalent.
If you can get over the butt-ugly aesthetics, MSI GT laptops tend to be beefier and have better cooling than other makers, so you can run a 1070 or even 1080 without burning yourself on it.

I guess I should also state what games I play , most are single player with few multiplayer.

Overwatch, skyrim, dark souls, and other less graphic demanding games.

portability would be nice also but value/reliability/durability should be taken into account.

>you no longer have to compromise
not being able to upgrade is a pretty big fucking compromise.

>>56552343
Thanks I'll check them out.

I'll look into them. I have had alienware before and it lasted 4 years so not to bad.

The main downside of Alienware's eGPU setup is that the connector is proprietary. Be aware of that before deciding.

Sager/Eurocom/Clevo give you the most bang for your buck. Not the thinnest things, but amazing specs for the money.
The Razer blade is pretty damn good if you're looking for something thinner.

Alright, well like this >>56552340 guy said, Sager makes a laptop with the exact same specs as the new Razer Blade (except the Sager has an extra 1 TB HDD space) for $300 less. The Razer is thin and pretty and only has 256 GB space, the Sager is heavy and bulky. Take your pick.

Also, both come with a 1060 which is a pretty high-end system at the moment. I don't know if you want to buy something that expensive to play ~4 year old games like Skyrim and Dark Souls, but like I said. It's your choice, man. Good luck with all of this.

Having something more portable might help me more with packing and limited space for my travel bag.

>>56552493
Hmmm , I could also get new HD for my alienware it has a 650m in it and might be a good fix until there are games out there that would require me to upgrade.

This is the first I'mheaving of Sager

This doesn't really instill confidence.

It's just extra shit to waste money on. Eurocom is a Clevo reseller, and Clevo machines have a generally good reputation. Older Alienware laptops were Clevo rebrands.
