JennyorAlice Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Do you do all your gaming on a PC or a laptop? Why do you prefer that one over the other? How much did you spend on that PC or laptop? What kind of specs does it have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yarik Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I always have been playing video games on a desktop PC. It's cheaper, more powerful and easier to upgrade in the future. I also don't like the small monitors that laptops have and the keyboard that they have. I also don't travel so I don't find the portable abilities of the laptop useful for me.

Demon_skeith Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 mostly on PC if I do, since its a bit better setup for playing games than my laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander. Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Laptop, why? I'm always on the go to either: resturants, work, college. It's highly portable, convenient and I can use my Acer Laptop almost anywhere. Specifications: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8300H CPU @ 2.30GHz Installed RAM (8.00GB and 7.85GB useable). NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX Intel Core i5 8th Gen 64 bit operating system, x64-based processor and Windows 10 OS 1000GB Storage (847GB) Free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) Based on what I read, gaming laptops are catching up to desktops in all areas - though desktops are clearly better and probably will remain so. Therefore, a laptop could be a good idea for some people - depending on how advanced you want things. So, just for fun, can anyone name these advancements in laptops?

The video cards are nearly with the same performance as the desktop ones. But the processors aren't that powerful as they should be for that price. And in almost all cases with these video cards, the battery is dying within a hour or two when gaming on battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerlene Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) I've always used a laptop. It much more portable. The one is use is a i7 that was made for gaming. It's the new HP. It works like magic. Edited November 23, 2018 by Jerlene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Farrell Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 For everything I need to play, Desktops seem to run the games better. I have had issues in the past with Laptops running smoothly after running games for any extended periods of time above 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Desktop predominately, though I do some light gaming on my macook air (mostly FTL). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o-o Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 No doubt, it should be PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyxx Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Desktop. For gaming on the go I prefer handhelds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italianmunchiez Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 PC although I've never really played games on a laptop before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Farrell Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Honestly? I would rather run games on a desktop, over anything else. Desktops generally from past experience are less sluggish when responding to intensive games, than laptops are. If I were to play just basic games, Laptops would be fine for me.

UleTheVee Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Desktop, no doubt. Laptops can technically be used as both Desktop and portable gaming but they are way too bulky / valuable to be taken out in the open. If you want portable gaming on the go, stick to a Switch / handheld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I have a powerful desktop for gaming but my gaming laptop is mainly for animation and video editing as those are my sources of income. A desktop is your best bet for proper gaming but a laptop is a decent option if you can't afford to build a machine or travel a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
