I want to replace my desktop.

Which of those would you choose?

Build a desktop PC for gaming and get a cheap laptop for your mobile needs.

Most products focused on gamers are overpriced. (e.g. black and red colour scheme, rgb leds)

Fuck all of them, Alienware 13 by a long shot

I enjoy my AW13 though the looks are offputting, I just keep the LED's off or pure light blue. Mostly it's just the only laptop I could find that had an entry-level discrete GPU for light-mid gaming but was also usable as a general purpose portable machine and had a good non-chiclet keyboard

buy proper gaming PC with no gamer hardware but sensible stuff - cheaper if oced faster

spend 300 on a 2nd hand elitebook as they have better hardware for the price compared to thinkshits

done

does nobody have long-time-experience in heavy use of machines like those?

do they survive heavy gaming every day?

When buying a laptop, you should only buy from Dell/Alienware or Apple

I'll give you a wrap up:
For two years it will be fine.
Two years down the line you will want to kill yourself because the 1060 won't run the games you'll want to play at acceptable settings anymore.
Another year later the whole system will fail due to the cooling system running at 100% all those hours and finally breaking down.
You will then realize the error of your ways.

Asus one

most likely no.
I have a friend who will play shit at sub 10 fps because he is just use to it so when he went to 60 with a gpu upgrade it was amazing for him, but with these laptops

starcitizen says it will weigh 100gb, first laptop wont even hold the game, and I honestly assume they are going to get bigger and bigger, with 4k, if a dev pushes it hard, you could see a game fit on a bluray on a console but be several hundred gb on the pc just due to textures alone. not to mention shit devs who dont compress audio.

games already use more then 8gb of ram so 2 options are dead as they stand, hell, shadow warrior 2 uses upwards 7.5gb at times because it sees I have 16gb of ram and background processes be damned,

cpu wise, possibly good to go, for that time period

so main thing

to little storage
barely enough ram for today's games, not to mention bloat monsters of tomorrow,
good enough gpus, not great, and mobile versions so they are cooled worse
cpus that are im assuming half as powerful as a desktop... looked it up, at stock they are 2/3 the power of the desktop version, the I5 is FAR under par

look, get a desktop for power, get a laptop for mobile, don't compromise.
