I need a new laptop. What's the best laptop I can get for $1500?
Need it for gaming and heavy-duty film/photo editing (yes, I know a tower would be more cost effective, but portability is a big deal for me). Must support VR and preferably 4k blurays (but that one isn't a dealbreaker).

They don't make good laptops anymore. Just trash for old people and tablets.
Why the FUCK are you not asking Cred Forums?
I'm going to, I just figured I'd get some faster responses here.
Used Razer Blade. Preferably the one with the gtx 970m.
Don't get a laptop. Get a PC it's way cheaper
I will look into it. Thank you kindly!
I'm not seeing much on my deal scanner.

Looks like garbage.
check out pcspecialist, for that money you can build an rfx machine with 32 gb ram, I7 and whatnot. dunno if they do worldwide
I'm aware of that, but like I said, portability matters. I frequently have to upload and edit footage on set; plus, it's just nice to have my entire gaming library with me at all times.
Thanks you sir/madam.
Do you must have specifically a laptop or just a "mobile" PC?
If it's the latter, if you can wait a few more months, some interesting NUC based cases are coming out with full-sized graphic card support, google cooler master nc100. Hardly bigger than two stacked full sized graphic cards.
Got a link? I'll check it out, but it probably needs to be a laptop. Can't really carry around a monitor/keyboard.

Someone built a compact, water-cooled high-end PC with built-in 23 inch monitor into a small suitcase.
Saw a review on that wal mart exclusive overpowered laptop, actually didnt look like shit, actually I'll link it
Trouble is, regular OEMs always put in shitty graphics cards that are beyond obsolete within a year...
...unless you dish out 3000+ for a high-end laptop.
Problem is lack of space that drives cost up
Scrap Lenovo's consumer grade stuff. Quality is shit. Only their corporate/enterprise units are halfway decent but they cost a lot more and have shitty built-in graphic cards
A laptop is a portable PC you fuckwit.
Why not get a netbook and a mobile pc? Plug the latter in somewhere, and remote into it w/ the former over a private wifi link.
Cool cat. MSI makes good lappytops from what I remember. Pretty sure they still do. Have not been in the PC market for a little while. Finding refurbs can be pretty tits. Got a refurb myself that was an open box. Came in brand new without the original box and worked like new. Last time I looked it was pretty cheap to get a laptop with a gtx 1070 in it for cheap. I have a 1070 myself, it’s pretty solid and powerful. Only thing that you will find is that a laptop with a full vidya card in it can be a bit thick.
Scrap that, unless you're STADIA you won't get smooth 1080p/2160p@60fps rendered over WIFI/internet
Cute kitty
For the record:
I bought my last laptop (an ASUS) in 2010 for $1200 and I got 8 years of quality gaming out of it. Literally never had a single problem until 2018, then it finally died last month.
My point being: I know laptops get a bad rap because towers are better/cheaper, but I really don't have a problem with them, and I don't mind spending a little more for the portability.
I'm looking at some MSIs right now. Also, I don't mind a thick/heavy laptop.
Thanks! I absolutely love her. She's super well-behaved, cuddly as hell, and she has literally never once scratched me or even so much as hissed. Sweetest cat I've ever known.
Looks even more adorable here. Sweetie
>literally can't use more than 1.5 hrs before it dies withoutbeing next to an outlet
>portable
I honestly don't see the point of laptops if battery tech is still so shit. Realistically, how long can you actually game without being plugged in?? 20 minutes??
Yeah she was just lying on her back in my arms staring up at me like that. Heart = melted. That's my favorite picture of her. My little squishy
cute kitters would pet, but laptops are gay af. get a tower and just man/woman up and take it with you to a hotel or something if it needs to be that portable
i bought an ASUS ROG a couple years back and the thing is an iron workhorse i tell you. im not computer savvy and just wanted something i could game with when i travelled. Still runs most games woth relative ease, but is falling out of date. thing cost me like 1200
The tongue omg!
Lol yep, she's a little weirdo. Here's her sitting on my lap looking stoned as fuck.
I'm not getting a tower. Period. I do not care if they're better. I'm not interested in anything I can't put into my bag and move with ease. Portability is a major deal breaker.
