    New Laptop in place of desktop

    With these new sizes and prices of GPU's I am so tempted to getting a real decent gaming laptop and sell all of my desktop stuff. Any suggestions on Laptops

    Depends on what your usage is going to be, If you're into gaming though I'd suggest a decentish CPU and then one of those external boxed GPU's, gives you the best of both worlds then...

    My daughter has a gaming laptop and it sounds like a jet engine and is so hot it will burn your hand if placed near the vent.

    Thats why IMHO a decent laptop with an external GPU is the better option these days.
