oh boy, i tried like hell to get away from desktop. gaming laptops in the 2009+ era were kicking off some good potentials but. at double the cost of a desktop and half the performance. i ended that streak after an Asus 09 ROG with a 9600GT…i even tried stand alone GPUs but chrrreeeist the bottlenecks. maybe the markets gotten better but ive not looked at it in 10 years
Yeah gaming on laptops only makes sense with streaming from a PC that has an actual GPU and an actual cooling solution. Or super simple stuff like papers please or ftl or something
Something to note: if you’re VRAM limited, Linux will perform worse and it’s an actual issue.
Especially on laptops, where VRAM is halved in comparison to desktop models for whatever reason.

My Dell Inspiron showed me how worthless discrete GPUs are in laptops, so I’m powerful desktop + enough laptop to run Firefox now.
