MSI raider 16 hx max WITH 5090, 32 GB DDR5 , ULTRA 9 290HX PLUS, 240 hrz refresh rate, OLED

I was shocked to see it wasn't Asus or Razer, it was freaking Lenovo Legion, the laptop that everyone recommended

This is why we can't have a good thing

was playing on my modded xbox 360 since i bought it back in 2019, it was fun but this is next level lmao

Hp omen 17

i7 12700h

Rtx 3070ti

16gb ddr5 4800mhz

1tb ssd

1440p 165hz display

bought it for 750$ very lucky considering how bad the market is

I sold my acer helios 300 a year ago for 350$, it had 16gb ddr4 3200, an i7, and a 3060 6gb gpu. I loved it. It was a work horse, however I noticed it slowed down so I sold it, and got an acer helios 16 neo with a 5070ti and an ultra 9 for 1300$

Now, prices have gone outta wack for everything, it have been looking at used laptops for a while think about just downgrading again. But every time I do, I think, how silly.

Now when I say how silly, I dont mean because of the massive performance dip in productivity and gaming. I mean, 1300$ for 3 generation old tech. I have seen 1080ti laptops for 1100$. So like, it does not matter if I downgrade, ill save 200$ all most selling it assuming that the person on ebay does not just take it and do a bunch of that return crap, and then on top of that, i lose performance. Go down to ddr4.

Its just feeling nonsensical now

I’ve been looking for an RTX 5070 Ti laptop for more than 5 months, but I couldn’t find a price lower than this for the configuration I wanted.

I finally bought this ASUS ROG Strix G16:

Ryzen 9 8940HX

RTX 5070 Ti 12GB

16GB RAM

1TB SSD

16" FHD 165Hz display

AED 7,899 (~$2,151 USD)

I did see some MSI models for cheaper, but I wasn't convinced by them because of some reliability concerns I’d heard about, so I decided to go with the ROG Strix.

I know FHD is a little low for these specs, but honestly, the panel is really good. I didn't expect it to look this good.

For the RAM, I’ll wait a little while before upgrading to 32GB until I recover financially 😂.

I’ve been watching the market for over 5 months, and this was the lowest price I could find for the laptop I wanted, so I finally pulled the trigger.

I already bought a Flydigi BS3 Pro. Other than a cooling pad, is there anything you recommend getting or doing with a new laptop like this?

Did I get a good deal?

Torn between these two:

• Zephyrus G16 (2025) – Ultra 9 285H, 5070 Ti, 32GB, 1TB, OLED – $3,399 CAD
• Strix G16 (2026) – Ultra 9 290HX Plus, 5080, 32GB, 2TB – $4,299 CAD

Mostly gaming at home and usually hooked to an external monitor. I occasionaly move it room to room at night and take it to client meetings a handful of times a year (accounting), so portability and looks matter a bit.

Which would you pick? Do either of these look like good deals for Canada, or should I hold out for a different sale? Open to other suggestions in this price range too.

Budget: Up to $4,500 CAD
Country: Canada
Use Case: Gaming, light work, occasional travel to clients
Preferred Specs: 5070 Ti or better, 32GB RAM, 1TB+

Thank you in advance.

Bought this used for $725. What do you guys think?

Ordered this Gigabyte A16 pro last week and waiting for it to get here. I’m hoping it feels as good as I hope, coming from an Xbox one S it should be a huge jump right?

This is an Alienware 18 Area 51 laptop. It was bought in July. Seller said we can do $2,500. Should I do it?

I searched up a lot about gamming laptops and found this to be my ideal choice . i bought this for like 554KWD which is roughly 1790$ . Tell me your experiences with this.

I have been looking for a good mid range laptop for while I am at school, but I am kind of new to gaming laptops. I'll be using this for both school and gaming, and would appreciate any help in finding a laptop that might work for my case.

Budget: $1500 (preferably closer to $1000)

Country: US

Use Case: I am going to school for AI engineering, and I have heard that vram is important for that. On the gaming side, nothing too demanding but I'd like the flexibility to handle more demanding games later.

Preferred Specs / Form Factor: I would like something with at least 16gb ram and 512gb storage, but I think thats pretty much just base line.

I don't really care about weight. I'll be next to an outlet for most of the day so the battery life wouldn't need to be much longer than about 4-5 hours.

I'd appreciate any help anyone might have in finding something that might work

I have an HP Victus for light-ish gaming. Sims, deadlock, friend slop games. I find the screen really small and my glasses aren’t cutting it anymore.

I’m wondering if getting a monitor would be worth it, and if so, which one? Would love some advice and recommendations!

Budget: $300
Country: Canada
Use Case: (Optional: Gaming - Sims, deadlock, bug walk, peak, gta, rdr2, avatar.
Preferred Specs: I have no clue what this means 👉🏻👈🏻
Notes: I’m not a computer person, I just like fun video games c:

Budget: under 500 USD Country: Canada (adding USD pricing to post) Use Case: Games at home, not for portable use. Preferred Specs / Form Factor: Run my games well, minimal crashing or lagging, Low graphic settings are fine for me Needs: Notes: (Specific brands you like/dislike, noise tolerance, display preferences, etc.)

PRICE IN PICTURE IS IN CAD (385USD)

I'm looking for a cheap laptop/MAYBE pc for games like Roblox, some other mobile games, and if possible Gmod, Minecraft, and maaybee the sims. Being able to stream through discord would also be really great.

I seriously don't know a thing about computers and I'm not necessarily interested in doing a bunch of research.. thats why i figure a "gaming laptop" is going to be simpler than a desktop. I'm hoping you guys can help me out here.

Hearing alternatives for similar prices would be okay, but for the most part I'm just wondering if this laptop seems strong enough for my needs, is appropriately priced, and is beginner/noob friendly.

I wanna buy this it looks a good deal but , Lenevo says my warranty will be activated after 60days so I'm a bit worried will Lenevo take this warranty

Just bought this beauty and she’s my first. She ran me $325 used, did I win or lose?

​

I am a pc gamer but my work is not in the same place i am moving alot so I am about to buy a gaming laptop and both of these laptops are on the same price in my country

Thanks .

HP Omen 15.

But tbh I haven't owned laptops before, I'm a desktop guy (as you can probably see) but that was hard to haul from class to class, and the power plugs are too sparse anyways (totally the bigger issue there)

Just finished setting her up.

I am genuinely concerned and want to know if this is normal.

I have an alienware aurora 16 ac16250 and when ever i turn on the laptop and go to task manager , i notice the memory usage at always about 60%.

Is this normal? Coz i have disabled all startup apps and so , and still this issue persists.

Wanna know if theres any fix to it.

Budget: $3500 AUD 
Country: Australia
Use Case: Sim racing(iRacing/ ACC/ forza 6)
Preferred Specs: Please advise if 5070ti is a must 
Notes: Not a fan of OLED, S26 ultra and Pixel 5 both give me eye strain.

Hi everyone,

Tried to ask AI but the answers are always vague and got given the correct info most of the time.

Wondering do I really need the 5070ti or 5080? I might use TV or VR but probably not the 3 screen setup due to limitation.

TIA

Budget: 2,400$
Country: USA
Need recommendations for a gaming laptop i can’t seem to find a really good one open to any suggestions

Budget: £1000
Country: UK
Use Case: high settings in game and school work.

It’s going to be my 2nd gaming laptop since my first has an rtx 2050 that doesn’t work anymore and I don’t really want to spend a lot on just repairing it. I’ll be using it for both school and gaming.

Also want to know if an rtx 5050 is good enough to run Fortnite on high settings and if £900 is a fair price for it.

I have an Asus ROG Strix Scar 17.

RTX 3080 16GB

Ryzen 9 5900HX

64GB ram

1080 360hz panel

I bought it used and it has been performing as expected. My only issue is with the sound. It sounds very very low. I have installed all drivers and reset windows already. Still no luck. It doesn't sound distorted or grainy, it's just low. I have looked at the speakers physically and they don't appear to be broken.

Any idea how i can fix this? I am having a hard time finding replacement online as well. I would also like to have that as the absolute last resort.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

¡Hola, comunidad gamer y entusiastas de PC! Acabo de comprar mi primera laptop gamer.

Para ser honesto, sé muy poco sobre el tema (solo lo básico). Me costó mucho ahorrar; mi presupuesto total fue de entre $1.900 y $2.200 USD, incluyendo periféricos (un mouse y unos auriculares). Independientemente de si hice la elección perfecta o no, me siento increíblemente orgulloso de haberla comprado con mi propio dinero... ^^***

Llega este martes (en dos días) y ¡estoy ansioso por probarla! El único detalle es que la compré como producto reacondicionado. Investigué sobre la tienda: es un lugar conocido y de buena reputación con una tienda física, y me dieron una garantía de 12 meses. Me explicaron que lo abrieron debido a una inspección aduanera durante el envío internacional, así que eso me tranquiliza.***

Viene con el procesador AMD Ryzen 7 que se ve en las fotos, una tarjeta gráfica NVIDIA GeForce RTX y 16 GB de RAM. Como soy completamente nuevo en esto, me gustaría saber tu opinión sincera:

• ¿Qué opinas de estas especificaciones para alguien que se inicia en los videojuegos de PC?

• ¿Qué me recomiendas hacer la primera vez que lo encienda?

• ¿Hay algún consejo básico de mantenimiento o configuración que deba tener en cuenta?

¡Espero leer tus comentarios y muchas gracias!
