Hey everyone,
I’m planning to upgrade my setup and could really use some advice from this community. I play competitive FPS titles, do some video editing, and occasionally stream. I’ve been eyeing some of the best gaming laptops, but I’m also considering building a custom desktop rig - so I’m torn.
Here’s what I’m thinking:
Also, what are the trade‑offs if I go laptop vs desktop in 2025? Thanks in advance — looking forward to your suggestions!

Here’s what I’m thinking:
- For a laptop: Prefer something light but powerful enough to run high‑FPS games + handle Adobe Premiere
- For a desktop: I’m okay spending a bit more as long as I don’t compromise performance
- 2–3 laptops that are considered among the best gaming laptops for both gaming and content creation
- A desktop build (parts list + approximate cost) that will last me for 4–5 years
Also, what are the trade‑offs if I go laptop vs desktop in 2025? Thanks in advance — looking forward to your suggestions!
