Are we talking 3500 USD? You can get a monster of a laptop with that. Something like the Asus Rog Strix Scar 17

$10,000 will get you a decent one. Any less than that and you might as well be playing a Fisher Price computer

$3000 on a laptop is redic considering how much you're gimping yourself over the fact that it's a laptop.

ok 350 is way different than $3500. With $3500 the sky is the limit. With $350 I dont think you can do much.

Oh, that's a huge difference then lol. Not much you can get at that price. For $50 more ($399), you can get the 64 GB version of the Steam Deck. That will be the most bang for your buck for playing Steam games at that price point.

That doesn't release until December, though.

I got a pretty good refurbished gaming laptop for ~$900. But that was a steal.

the HP Pavilion gaming laptop I got two years ago is pretty decent still. Runs most things at 1080p/60fps after I doubled the RAM to 16GB

Paid like $750 for it at the time

First, use a throwaway email account to sign up for Dell Deals to get a 10% off coupon:

https://www.dell.com/preferences/signup/

Once you get the coupon, go here:

You can upgrade to a 512 GB SSD for $50 if you want, or just buy a bigger one on Amazon or Newegg

This is actually a 140W 3080, which puts it roughly on par with a desktop 3070 and much better than the standard 80-90W 3080s you see on most other 15in laptops. In most benchmarks it's anywhere from 25% to 40% faster than a standard laptop 3080.
