Hey guys so I'm going to college in the fall and I want something that I can do schoolwork on while also being able to play gw2 and LoL I would also prefer to be able to take something to class for notes etc. So my question is should I just get a gaming laptop to play GW2 and LoL or get a desktop and a cheap laptop ?

P.s was thinking laptop would be best fit but am not sure

A gaming laptop is going to be bigger, heavier, have low battery life and most importantly not very upgradable vs a desktop. Also you pay $200 more for the laptop to get semi-equal performance to a desktop.

Thus the best option is to have a gaming desktop and a cheaper $400 laptop for school work.
Even if you have to build the desktop a little weaker to be able to afford both, at least the desktop will be upgradeable, while with the laptop you stuck with what you got.
