Comment on Where in the world is laptop gaming the most popular?
someguy3@lemmy.world 5 weeks agoI’m not sure I follow this, desktops are generally cheaper. And if a part is bad you can replace just that part, you have better cooling so things should last longer, and you can buy and sell parts. So both short and long term it should be cheaper.

I think op’s argument is that there is a chance of fucking up building a desktop and having wasted money. Just buying a laptop is a safe route, even if its not necessarily the cheapest.

Yeah I guess but most people buy them prebuilt. Still cheaper.
