The new GPUs for laptops like the 970m and 980m are pretty impressive, along with 100hz screens and GSync support. Still, most gaming laptops today have around 17-inch displays, while desktops often offer bigger screens. How does that affect the gaming experience? Does the smaller size make immersion feel less? What do you think? Looking forward to your thoughts!

At least it’s not a CRT monitor. I’ve been there before.Romppanen_
