im looking for a gaming laptop which should i buy so i can play powerful and high end games on it

don't buy gaming laptops

[Chaosolous]

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend anyone buy a gaming laptop and just invest in a tower, even if it means saving up a bit longer.

Laptops are difficult to do hardware repairs/upgrades on unless you're hardware savvy.

laptops are overpriced to hell and don't deserve to be bought for gaming

A Steam Deck is so much better and more portable

if you want a personal computer, just invest in a proper computer.

however if you want a laptop, and gaming being somewhat of a secondary objective, there are several possibilities. it largely depends on your budget and games you wanna play.

not knowing your wants and needs however, i guess i can recommend "Acer Nitro 5" ?
its pretty good imo

Most people would suggest an actual computer rather than a laptop, but if you're into gaming laptops (like I am as well) ASUS ROG laptops seem to be pretty good ones.

Sager or Framework are the best you can buy now.

there's nothing wrong with gaming laptops if you're a person who travels a lot but still wants to game

that being said, I don't have any expertise on the subject, I just did some research myself and tried to find a good balance between my budget and the specs, and it's served me well over the years

Get a desktop if your looking for power and steam deck if you need portability, laptops are generally a bad investment for gaming

steam deck is just for gaming afaik, a laptop offers much more than that

Look for a 4070 or AMD equivalent, as long as it has a decent amount of ram, or the capacity to increase it, you should be ok. If you can wait a few more months, the next generation of graphic cards will be out and you can get a better model, or at least pay less for what is currently available.

Gotta love how everyone immediately ignores the request for a laptop specifically and starts going on about the non-portable alternative.

Anyways OP, look for what specs you need for the games you want to play and go from there. I can't give much suggestions since everyone looks for different things out of their games, wanting a laptop that can play current games well is a whole different beast than wanting 4K/120 fps out of it. Pick a few current high end games you want, look at the specs, and use that as a starting off point when looking through laptop listings.

All I can say, stay away from Asus. I had an Asus gaming laptop back in high school, and that thing somehow struggled to run Minecraft at a consistent FPS. Granted minecraft is one of the biggest unoptimized messes of a game there is, but still. It's minecraft.

Steam Deck is a fully functional KDE Plasma Desktop PC. However, it sets the rootspace to read only by default, restricting things to the Flathub for software, and text input is a pain in the butt unless you use a bluetooth keyboard.
