Gaming Laptop Advice Needed

[olive axle]

Hi everyone
Mujhe ek gaming laptop lena hai jo high end games smoothly run kar sake Main chahta hoon ki laptop ka CPU, GPU aur RAM gaming aur editing ke liye best ho, I was just thinking of buying this laptop.But if there is any other laptop better than this, can you suggest it ? 🙂

Did you look at Legion/LOQ equivalents at this price?

I know like 3 friends with HP Victus and all 3 of them had broken hinges lol, maybe Omen is better since it's costlier as well.

[olive axle]

Is this one worth buying in Lenovo Legion?

[half cave]

For a 5060? Nah

Also 32 gb minimum

in 2025

And 1 tb ssd since you're a gamer

[olive axle]

Is it the one with 5070, will you send the link?

[half cave]

The Omen you linked earlier had a 5070 for about the same price

[olive axle]

Earlier I was thinking of buying an Asus laptop but there is no service centre for it in my city.

[half cave]

Damn the 5070 model they have is going for 2.1L

Not worth it imo

[olive axle]

But you said that it has a broken hinge which is the problem.

[half cave]

Lemme look at HP Omen reviews, Victus is their low budget gaming laptop series.

[olive axle]

HP Omen has good reviews and is well priced.

[half cave]

Well priced for sure

4070 laptops are going around the 1.5 range even now... 💀

[olive axle]

Which brand do you recommend ?

[half cave]

I currently own a Acer Predator with RTX 4070. I did similar research back in 2024 when I bought my laptop, Lenovo LOQ/Legion and Predator were known for good build quality.

I dropped my laptop from like 4 feet and it escaped with just a dent on the corner, thanks to the metal build 💀

The HP Omen you linked is looking pretty good honestly

But is it metal or plastic build? It's their "slim" model, and their website doesn't mention anything about it.

I dont know if their environmental friendly plastic is for other components or the chassis itself. But it's probably a non-issue.

[olive axle]

Yeah the Omen looks pretty solid but it's plastic built I think, The design is cool too, but when it comes to build quality, models like the Predator are still on top Your choice of the Predator was really smart 👍

But the specifications look good, so I am thinking of buying this.

[half cave]

Ehh personally I would take a GPU upgrade over a build quality upgrade.

So in your spot, I would have gone for HP Omen

[half cave]

Nice dude

Why are you going for the slim model btw? Do you want it to be portable?

[olive axle]

ok i'll take it then i like it, thanks for the help

[half cave]

I dont know how they make it so slim, hopefully not at the cost of components

I'll send you a link in DM, all HP Omen models with RTX 5070

[olive axle]

Yes, I want a portable laptop

[half cave]

Ah I see

[olive axle]

The only difference is that the Ultra 9 processor is not HX, but H

[half cave]

What the hell is a ultra 9 processor tho 💀

[half cave]

I see

This laptop comes with:

AMD Ryzen™ 9 8940HX (up to 5.3 GHz max boost clock, 64 MB L3 cache, 16 cores, 32 threads)

I dont know which one is better

But same price

[olive axle]

Okay, I have booked this one,thanks for help 👍

[olive axle]

Haha yeah those allergies hit hard huh 😂

[pale rock]

Any specific reason you're not building a pc bro?

[half cave]

Portability would be my guess, he even went for the slim model

[spare umbra]

Bro dont buy slim laptops mostly their tdp is capped to like 55-85

You will need to vbios flash but that doesnt work in many laptops

[olive axle]

True slim laptops may have a capped TDP but I am looking for a portable option. Can you suggest some good laptops
