Wanting something for portable gaming. Considered a Switch, BUUUUT Id have to rebuy all my games. So a gaming laptop would be cheaper in the long run.

Considering one, hoping to run things around medium settings. Only issue Im seeing is 8GB of RAM

Might pull the trigger on it. Not sure. Whatcha think? Cant post the link because its over 150 characters fml

Heres the specs

GPU: GTX 1650
CPU: i5- 10300H
Memory: 8GB DDR4 2666MHz

Price will be right around $600. Barely over.

*sigh*

What is the price?

Far too expensive. I got an Envy years ago with a similar build for $350.

no they're not. they're middling specs for middling games, which TC seems to want to do

what games are you playing?

since you considered a switch, have you thought about pre ordering the steam deck? when is that coming out anyway

I considered preordering it, but Valve does have a habit of abandoning their projectsso I want to wait and see. At least that was a common sentiment I found online.

As for the games, none of what I play is that demanding. The most demanding game Ive got installed right now is Baldurs Gate 3. Really, all I want from this is something to fuck around on at work. We have a ton of down time at my job, Im sitting around on my phone for about 3 hours per shift, sometimes up to 5.
