Answer #5
Asus ROG and Razer is what comes to my mind when thinking of gaming laptops
Answer #6
I dislike their designs; they’ve been too blocky for too long, and they have no slim/thin laptop chasis options
There are just better options available from ASUS, MSI, the pricey Alienwares, Lenovo, and even Gigabyte
Answer #7
i wanna try MSI
Answer #8
I will stress – try to look before you buy.
I bought a laptop from a well known UK company.
It’s good, fast, etc.. but it has the most horrible keyboard. Sure, it’s all pretty with backlighting that you can change colours – but it’s bling before substance.
There are no home/end keys (and i use them in typing and editing a LOT)
The shift is fking tiny – so I keep hitting enter all the time.
All the keys seem like they are shifted to the right by one key width – so I hit INS instead of DEL, and “i” instead of “o” (because the “o” is furtehr to the right).
The touch pad is SO horrible I bought a wireless mouse – there’s no feeling of where you are on it, no edges, etc. The pad button are separated by a damn fingerprint reader, the tossiest addition of all (becasue it ruins the buttons for comfort and use)
Scan 3XS – nice in some ways, shiit in so many others.
So = the moral.. try to look and test before you muy!
