Recently 15 years, I use and only use DIY desktop PC at home. For PC gaming, Desktop is much better than laptop. I keep upgrading components now and then. The last config is:
Gigabyte Z370 + Intel CPU i5-8500 + Kingston 32GB DDR4 (8GB x 4) + Gigabyte GTX1060 3GB + Samsung 512GB SSD + Seagate 2TB HDD x 2 + Cooler Master MasterWatt 650W
Meantime, I always watch the possible laptop models, in case to be replacement or backup for desktop PC. Since COVID19, working from home becomes norm and often. A movable laptop may be better than desktop. Two options: option one, keep desktop and buy a developer laptop like Lenovo ThinkPad; option two, replace desktop with a gaming laptop like Lenovo 5pi (RTX 1650) and Acer Predator Helios (RTX 2060). Middle-end gaming laptop is enough. Not urgent, so wait for hot sale or year end.
One month ago, pass by IT shop, suddenly find the prices for models of Acer Predator Helios dropped by about 25% (comparing with two months ago)! Google what happened. Acer new models with RTX 3060 coming. so, clean old models with RTX 2060 now! The spec of new models are almost same as old models, except RTX! But the price cut $400.
RTX 2060 is much enough for me. Good to save some money. Limited stock, immediately ordered one:
Acer Predator Helios 300 PH315-53-799G (i7-10870H 16G 1TSSD RTX2060 144HZ)
Also upgraded memory to 32GB and add WD 2TB HDD.
Now, selling my beloved PC.
