>gaming laptops outsell gaming desktops 2:1
Based on desktop CPU sales or based on pre-built sales? I don't know what qualifies as a gaming laptop these days but the best laptops for software development often have discrete graphics cards in them e.g. 1660 Ti
- aurareturn 3y agoBased on however IDC defines a gaming laptop. I'm guessing it's having a non-APU AMD/Nvidia GPU inside the laptop. But it makes sense to me. Laptops have gotten much better, and most gamers aren't buying Nvidia 4090. The most common GPU is just a GeForce GTX 1650 which many laptops have and have thermals that easily fit inside a laptop. It's not surprising at all that gaming laptops outsell gaming desktops. This isn't the 2000s anymore where if you want to play PC games, you build a DIY desktop tower and buy a discrete GPU. It's a myth that most PC gamers use top of the range GPUs. Most of them use low-end or mid-range GPUs.
