Like you, when first moving from desktop to notebook I found them lacking everywhere. Overy the years, I became so used to the mobility* that I can't think of going back. Also, your electricity bill will show a difference (most notebooks use arround 65W to 80W vs 250W to 600W for a desktop!).
* even though these days I don't travel as much as I used to
- gkoz 12y ago> 65W to 80W vs 250W to 600W Are you citing the power supplies ratings instead of actual power consumption?
- chadgeidel 12y agoWhen gaming my modestly configured desktop (i5, GTX650 ti, ssd/hdd combo w/good air cooling and good case cooling) pulls 250-300 "at the wall" according to my kill-a-watt. I would imagine that as you go up the "gaming" chain (multiple GPUs, water cooling, etc) you could find yourself at the upper bound of that range.
- gkoz 12y agoA laptop wouldn't match that performance though. And when not gaming the wattage should be a bit lower.
