I'm looking for a good, affordable gaming laptop and I would like to hear the opinions on the laptop I linked. Recommendations are cool. Always open to them.

Not really, 5050 is too weak. Try to do 5070 minimum

I have never even heard of an RTX 5050, but it's an 8gb video card. Depending on what you wanna play it will probably be fine with DLSS at 1440p/ 60 fps.

RtX 5050 mobile is probably more like RTX 2060 desktop but with better DLSS.

it'll play anything in the market, just not at ultra 4k 60fps ray tracing. It should perform somewhere between a rtx 3060 and a 3060 ti

Here's a good example of the range you should look for.

Try to finance it if possible.

If you want something cheap, better off just getting a console and doing remote Play or Cloud Gaming.

When Steam announces the Box at a grand I'll probably end up with one of these laptops.

I need something under $1000. Any good ones out there other than the one I first linked?

The one you linked is pretty good already - like i said, should perform between a 3060 and a 3060 ti. I doubt you'll find a better one below $1000 using RTX cards.

 

[GoldenEye Samurai]

I'm thinking about it. Would you guys rather have a gaming laptop or a console? If so, which one? I can more readily get the laptop since Amazon has a payment plan for it.

If you're willing to use DLSS 4.5, which is amazing. 5050 Laptop should be great

Dont finance a computer. Thats awful advice.
