Should I get a new gaming PC or a gaming/regular laptop? - LordSyntax - Feb 16, 2016
In college atm, and I've been working and saving enough up for a new computer. I'm not sure which to get though. I could get a nice desktop custom built (which would be fun to set up) and stick with my MBP, or just buy like a razer blade or a compact gaming laptop. I have the display and keyboard and mouse and everything... Suggestions?

Get a desktop, it'll be worth it in the end. I have tons of friends who have custom built desktop's and they love them, the cooling is better too.

I'd defiantly go with the PC as in a later date, you can add more screens/monitors while with a laptop you have the one screen and the keyboard that comes built in the laptop can get in the way if you have your own keyboard.

Oh yeah, that's one thing I forgot to mention. Dual monitors are dope, and no mechanical keyboard on a laptop.

It all depends on how much money you have..

For the ease of access, especially if you have classes that would be better if you had a laptop, go for the laptop. Otherwise, PC is the way to go. You can customize it to your liking and you can get cool peripherals to match it.

How about you get neither and go buy some crack instead?
