    Default Laptop or Desktop?

    I am thinking of buying a new gaming PC although I haven't conclude if it would be a laptop or a desktop.. I like laptops cause they can be transfered but desktops are milestones more powerful.. What do you suggest?

    Desktop. If u ever want to upgrade your video card, more ram memory or something, you can't do that in a laptop. Or you should buy an (expensive) Alienware Laptop. But those are very big and heavy. Laptops aren't made for gaming.

    Desktop. And always build your own - gets you exactly what you want for a significantly lower price.

    If you were to get a laptop, go for Alienware. Otherwise just build you're own desktop ;O

    Theres no such thing as a gaming PC, not one that will be up to date in a couple years at least.
    Not enough room to upgrade. Plus they typically get too hot.

    Like others said build your own PC. Muuuuuch cheaper. My PC cost me 600 dollars to build, while a Alienware PC with the same specs costed 1200. :O

    I got both.
    I got a Laptop, it's nice for taking it to friends for "little LAN - Partys"
    and my tower / Desktop, more power and better graphics and this stuff, good for at home

    Thats actually a good idea. If you have the money, go for what matisyahu did.

    I can't really remember.
    But my Laptop is a old chick.
    She's .. 3 years old.
    And my tower is about 1 year old.
    I think i bought my Laptop for about 500-600 € and my Tower i build by myself for 550 € without chase.
    No 7.000 $
