What's the best laptop for design & gaming on the market or upcoming?
It pisses me off that there's no perfect combination on the market right now.
I want long battery, a good screen, pen support, VR ready GPU. Was eyeing the XPS 15 9560, but it doesn't have a good enough GPU. Hell, it doesn't even have pen support. What's the point of that stupid ass 4K touchscreen if it can't even bend. The HP Spectre x360 is sexy as fuck, but again, shit GPU and I heard they're pretty prone to technical failures.
Help me Sup Forums, you're my only hope

If you want a decent gaming laptop, you're not going to want those thin ultrabooks. You need one of the beefier laptops. Even if an ultra book comes with like a 1070m, it'll be underclocked to hell because of thermals, and mobile gpus are already underclocked to their desktop counterparts

>laptop >pen support and gaming either or in the current market also you will want good pen support with depth sensing so you don't want to cheap out Also why VR on a laptop (mixed with a touchscreen no less)? How much of a normie are you?
Dominic Barnes
He's probably looking for casual design. No one who is seriously into it wouldn't settle for the lack of fidelity on a laptop touchscreen

Is this bait? There is no 1070m

That Spectre you posted is the 13" model, which is honestly the better product and the better deal, but has no GPU (get an egpu? It has thunderbolt 3)

No, you are just a fucking retard that can't read.

Look into Gigabyte laptops. If you want a small gaming laptop, be ready to pay a lot and be ready for it to get hot.
I'm planning to get something that's portable but powerful. I used to want the Gigabyte Aero 14, but after is got one for an employee, it kind of looks and feels like crap.
Right now the best bet for me seems like the Razer Blade 14, but it costs so fucking much.
Well. Actually the best ones for me would be the Gigabyte P34G V7 or P34K R7, cause I won't need anything above GTX 1050 and a fullHD 14" screen, but so far I only see those in Australia and the UK.

Alienware 13 no joke
it's actually good if you can get over the looks

I don't want a spaceship. I wanna travel and work.
If I wanted a 1050 I would get an XPS 15.
I'm a professional designer / illustrator. I don't want to carry both a laptop and a graphic tablet.

>I don't want to carry both Are you fucking serious? You're going for a shit-tier ultrabook with the cheapest digitizer n-trig has to offer just so you don't have to carry another 6mm-thin pad in your laptop bag? As I'm sure you've never used a drawing pad before, let me tell you now it's a painful and inconvenient experience using a glasstop tablet with a generic "touch"-oriented digitizer, likely with bad parallax from both shit hardware and giant normie-friendly thick screens Get an ultrabook AND a real dedicated drawing pad, it'll literally be better than some hybrid shittop and cheaper I mean shit, I have the digitizer Spectre myself and even I wouldn't think of using it for actual drawing, I have a thin Wacom pad that I usually forget is in my laptop sleeve

What's with these gayman laptop threads
Luke Green
I have a xmg with a 1060, I like it and it performs better than the benchmarks I see on 1060. But I'm not an expert, so it's just a novice advice
Adam Nelson
I said look into those laptop you fucking moron. Google it cunt.
Aero 14 comes with 1060 And that's the best of the 14" line.
If you want a 15.6" laptop there are options up to 1070. And those are the ones that are still at around 21mm thickness. Google P35x v7 and v6

virtually non-existent, op. Just about all gayman laptops lack AT LEAST one feature you desire. Most common one is the pen support.
Better off biting the bullet and just getting any decent gayman laptop out there and just use a separate pen/tablet
>I'm a professional designer / illustrator. I don't want to carry both a laptop and a graphic tablet. just deal with carrying both. no way you will even get professional quality work done on any laptops with pen support vs a pen/tablet.
>I don't want a spaceship. dude, most of these companies design their gayman laptops to look like spaceships because that's what the target audience if these types of laptops want.
