Gaming Laptop Or Gaming Desktop -- Help Me Decide.?




Shahzad


I am confused whether i buy gaming laptop or build a gaming desktop pc.

In Laptop i have selected this.
http://www.ipmart.com.my/main/product/Lenovo,Y,Series,Notebook,Y580,5934,6843,Dawn,Grey,Lenovo,Warranty,,355819.php?prod=355819

Lenovo Ideapad Y580
Processor: Intel® Core⢠i7 Processor 3630QM (2.4GHz, 6MB Cache)
Graphics: Nvdia GTX660M 2G DDR5
Storage: 500 GB HDD
Memory: 4 GB DDR3

In Desktop:
Processor: INTEL CORE i5 3570K 3.40Ghz (6MB CACHE)
Board: INTEL DZ77SL-50K (LGA1155-SND+HDMI+GIGA LAN)
Graphics: Nvdia GTX660 2G DDR5
Storage: 500 GB HDD
Memory: 4 GB DDR3

Compare both which one will give better performance in gaming.

Gtx660m is good or Gtx 660?

Thanks.



Answer
The desktop 660 should still be a little faster than a notebook 680M. Obviously the price difference between an equal desktop/notebook is around double.
The notebook 660M will be around half as fast as a desktop 660.

I strongly advise sticking to desktops for gaming unless you are rich. The GPU is most important and they can't be upgraded in a notebook. Gets very expensive to keep buying a notebook, when a desktop can just have the GPU replaced and the cpu overclocked when the cpu can no longer keep up with new GPUs..

Desktop or Laptop for an IT Student?

Hi, i'm a second year IT student here in the Philippines, i'm confused if what computer should I buy that suits to my need as an IT. My budget is 50k php or 1162 usd. I will be using it for programming, graphic works (cs5) and gaming. Thanks


Answer
For gaming and graphics editing a desktop is always better.
If you need mobility (to carry it around) than a laptop is recommended.
Don't know the prices in Philippines, but for $1162 you can get a very good desktop or a fairly decent laptop in the US.

Either way, make sure it has dedicated graphics (a discrete graphics card - nVidia GeForce or AMD-ATI Radeon HD), not integrated graphics (Intel HD) and an Intel Core i5 or i7 processor with at least 4GB of RAM.
