Hi /g/, Is this laptop a good choice for gaming?

I'm curious, why not just build a micro-ATX desktop build?

For ~$600 you can build a desktop 4-6X as powerful for professional PC gaming compared to a $1,000-2,000 gaymen laptop.

Asus gayming laptops have the best cooling. But people don't usually need to game on the go.

It is. Even $2,000 gaymen laptops have overheating CPUs which throttle often which reduces FPS even more than it already does by bottlenecking the GPU.

Find me a gaymen laptop that can play BF1 at max 1080p settings (my build can) at 90-100 FPS.

Go ahead I'll wait.

Even with thermal throttling, your rx 480 build is not 4 times faster than a 1.5k laptop

Got the model before this one to replace your g74sx3de and I love it. Don't game but these are the only laptops I have bought in my life that are durable, packed with hardware, great screens, great responsive built in keyboard and a goodtrackpad. Couple that with the 4 ddr3lp, stock i7 extreme, dual hdd bay, usb3.1s with a thunderbolt, dedicated gpu and cooling system that will never get louder than a whisper yet keep it all down at 30C.... I'll never buy anything other than asus. Fuck windows though ubuntu all the way as soon as I buy em.

It. Is.

Prove me wrong with a benchmark showing that turd running BF1 at maximum 1080p settings (100% scale, no cheating).

protip: you can't

I can't because I don't own a gaming laptop, but even iris pro laptops have a quarter the performance of an rx 480.

I bought the one with a 780m and a 120hz screen 3 years ago since I travel almost every week, still works today without a single problem, you just have to dust clean that shit thrice a year.

lol

Anyway they crammed a 45 watt CPU and a ~100 watt GPU in a laptop. Nobody should be surprised when the CPU throttled to 2GHz and the GPU to 800MHz and even then still had to shut down due to excessive heat lmao.

Your post should have ended right here with you apologizing for being so retarded.

Just because I don't own a gaming laptop doesn't mean I'm deluded enough to think that a $600 desktop can quadruple the performance of a 1-2k laptop

Save your money.
Gaming laptops are embarrassing.
You'll regret your purchase.
Seriously.
Buy some shares or something that will retain its value or put the money into savings.
