Need advice on picking a gaming laptop?
Hello everyone
I want to say first of all that I already have a desktop pc with a 3070.
Now I'm just looking for a gaming notebook to go with (but I won't play with it that much)
So I'll settle for a rtx 3060.
I have a maximum budget of 1600 dollars (I'm in Europe so it will be euros but that's okay).
So I was thinking: can I save money and get very good game quality, performance even management of important programs maybe not spending all 1600?
I'll explain: I found this acer on amazon:
https://www.amazon.it/Acer-AN515-55-55DW...k_it_IT=ÅM
% C3% 85% C5% BD% C3% 95% C3% 91 & crid = 1YLX58WGJTZGJ & dchild = 1 & keywords = acer + rtx + 3060 & qid = 1626717526 & sprefix = acer + rtx% 2Caps% 2C206 & sr = 8-1
But the price of the acers always seems to be lower than the others, so is it bad quality? How are the acers?
In the end in this I would have a 3060, I would add the ram, and an i5 of excellent generation for photoshop and random games like cod or fortnite would be fine?
OTHERWISE
https://www.amazon.it/MSI-10UE-271IT-Not...t_IT=ÅMÅŽÕ
% C3% 91 & crid = 15XRPJODPBPB0 & dchild = 1 & keywords = msi + thin + gf65 & qid = 1626717614 & sprefix = msi + th% 2Caps% 2C199 & sr = 8-1
The price is 1700, and it is msi
I need a GOOD LIFE (EVEN 3-4 YEARS) gaming notebook so what better brand would it be?
There would also be asus, hp (they always overheat a lot so no)
I accept any advice thank you very much
Hey there,
The Acer offers several advantages.
The CPU isn't very powerful, only 8gb of RAM, and a smaller SSD. The MSI is significantly better. It should last longer in the long run (though I don’t like that idea). It might handle tougher games better thanks to its extra 2 cores/4 threads, especially online multiplayer. If you’re deciding between the two, I’d pick the MSI. The main factor is price. Mostly $1600 will give you a decent setup and a capable gamer at the usual price for that resolution and refresh rate. The MSI GP/GF range is solid.
Both brands are decent, with MSI likely being the stronger choice. Acer Nitro/Helios tend to perform well too. They could even make better gaming laptops over time.
There are other good options as well—Razor Blade and Asus ROG series are both solid. I own an HP Omen 15, which has some solid models and has improved a lot in quality.
