If you like to play, you must of course have a proper machine. Some prefer game consoles like the Playstation and Xbox, while the majority swear to a computer. But should you choose a desktop computer or laptop laptop? We try to make you more aware of this.

The size

Advantage: Portable gaming laptops have of course the clear advantage that they, yes you have guessed it, are portable. This is by far the biggest selling point and why you buy it. This means that they are easy to move around and can also serve as a daily computer for the study or work. It also means that you can quickly and easily have your computer, for example, if you want to over and play with your friends. This is very cumbersome with a stationary and typically requires you to have a car.

Disadvantage: When the laptop is so easy to move around, it means, of course, that other places have been saved. It is often the internal components that have to be made somewhat smaller and without much power. Therefore, portable gaming computers are typically not as powerful as their stationary big brothers.

Customization

Disadvantage: With a laptop you typically get what it is. This is usually not possible to build or add own components and equipment. Therefore, the lifespan of a portable typically is not as long as on a desktop. It's difficult to replace old or worn parts. On a desktop it is built for you to replace memory and so on. Portable comes also with integrated keyboard, and of course it is possible to put your own, but then it's not much more a laptop anymore. Therefore, it is important to find a laptop with a keyboard that suits you.

Advantage: However, it may also be an advantage when there is not much replacement, because there is also not much to keep in mind when purchasing a portable gaming PC. You should not purchase a screen, keyboard, or other components. You get an all-in-one package where you just plug in and then play. It's quick, easy and easy.

Price:

Advantage: If you just want to play games like CS GO, League Of Legends or Fortnite, you can easily get a portable gaming laptop at a fancy price. And so it can even be used as a regular computer either at the studio or at home. That way, you do not have to have two computers, one for gaming and one for common tasks. It all comes together in one, and it's really easy and convenient.

Disadvantage: Should you have a portable gaming PC that just comes a bit near a stationary, you need to release significantly more money. Here it is only the mobility you pay for and not so much computing power. If mobility and all-in-one does not matter to you, you'll get more value with a stationary.
