Laptops aren't cheap, and become outdated pretty quickly.

What's your point?
that they're shit for the price and not really worth it

so what would you rather me do?

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

It's not a matter of what Lemon wants you to do. He's just letting you know that your choices are either 1) shit, or 2) really fucking expensive. And the more expensive it is, the heavier it is; a "top of the line" Aliumwear laptop weights in at 60lbs.

But I already know that.

I don't think the extent of how expensive a "gaming laptop" can be is understood. An Alienware 18 is the closest I can find to meeting the minimum requirements for TPP (and still falling short on the CPU speed), and the price is $4,650.

Gaming laptops are simply nowhere in the ballpark of being cost-efficient.

Huh? There are laptops that come bundled with TPP worth half that.

If that's truly the case, then forget about it.

And the game will run at 15fps lowest settings on them.

Alienware is overpriced crap.
A laptop with similar specs from another company will still have a very hefty price tag, though.

It really isn't worth it, tbh.

You have 3 choices
1) Bite the bullet and throw a couple grand at a laptop
2) Buy a cheaper, much weaker laptop
3) Don't buy one

Well that's kind of the point I'm making. An overpriced, 60lb Aliumwear laptop was the closest I could find to running TPP lowest settings 30fps. As in I haven't been able to find any other laptop that minimums a CPU speed of at least 3.1gHz (minimum for TPP is 3.4gHz) since Eliab asked how much one would be.

I'm pretty sure that the laptop would even bottleneck itself looking at the GPU.

Fuck it, then. Forget about it. Not spending $3K on a laptop.

Why do you buy games on your PS4 if you have a PC anyway?

I know it's obvious (at least I hope it is), but don't get Alienware. Ever.

It's just an overpriced brand name that should never be considered.

Red LEDs and an angular design makes it run faster, though.

Oh, I know. I was considering Asus or Razer, though.

My brother owns a Razer and he played Far Cry 3 on it all the time. Too bad he doesn't take very good care of his things.

hey
Probably what Gatsby said last I checked newegg that model of MSI is listed for like $1800 and the 970m can do most modern games last I checked its benchmarks
You do need to be wary of the CPU speed though, they don't tend to be super good in that regard

My laptop is only 2.3GHz, but it can run everything on my Steam library, including GTA V at medium settings 1080p (The minimum specs require 2.4GHz on GTA V so I'm surprised it can run it that well)
