I'm kind of considering buying a gaming laptop for the first time. This seems like a really good deal: https://www.amazon.com/GL753VE-DS74-G-SYNC-Gaming-i7-7700HQ-7200RPM/dp/B01N2WG5HN?th=1

That's like an upgraded, and larger, version of mine. Good stuff.

Just don't expect much in the way of battery life.

Or proper venting of heat $:\$ Many reasons I have not done laptop gaming yet. It's tough.

@scottalanmiller : How does the ROG do when gaming? Does it do well at not roasting the laptop from the heat generated?

Scott loves his rog but he typically plays indie games. I don't think anything too crazy graphically

My 3 year old Acer plays games well unless the fans are clogged. If you buy a gaming laptop, invest in some canned air to keep the fans clean too!

The ROG machines have amazing venting. Look at the back of the things. They're almost absurdly thick because of it, but it does the best job of heat dissipation of anything I've looked at.

That's a winning endorsement. Thank you.

I play Civ VI regularly on mine, and it is a very intensive game from a performance perspective. The fan is running constantly, but the keyboard and underside don't get at all hot.
