Would you pick a subtle gaming laptop or a spaceship?
Maybe the new Framework Laptop 16 (gen 2) with the RTX 5070?
Came here to say Framework 16. They are nice boring silver. I have one and yes it runs hot, yes it's loud when the fans are maxed, but it's a pretty effective gaming computer I can pack up and take in my travels.
I'm really satisfied with my Lenovo Legion (2024 edition), and it looks reasonably normal. I've redacted my PS1 to give you some hardware info if you zoom in on the screen.
It also has a Led keyboard with various modes. I always have mine set to "off". Cooling schema can be selected via a hot key which worked out of the box in Linux mint.
It's slim, powerful, relatively lightweight, and overall great build quality. Easy to bring when on the move.
Oh, and I included a partial feet Pic just for you <3
blushes thank you! It looks super sleek in white.
it's not a "gaming laptop", it's a luggable with heat management issues.
I thought my Asus G14 looked pretty normal.
Unfortunately it was a complete POS that never slept correctly or would randomly used the Nvidia GPU leading to like 2-3 hour battery life.
ThinkPad + Steamdeck is my new solution.
I like normal understated looking laptops. I do however like RGB keyboards so I can set the color myself, typically red so it's easy on the eyes at night.
Plus, red wunz go fasta.
As a spaceship owner, they suck. They are bulky and annoying.
Yeah, finding a good-fitting case or backpack is a pain for the weird form factors
I didn't read the title properly and clicked on the link, expecting a list of laptops that look fucking bonkers. Was disappointed...
There's no such thing, really. Gaming laptops have to deal with some pretty wild thermals so they necessitate being thicc and covered in air vents.
The nicest I've ever seen are Razers laptops - https://www.razer.com/pc/gaming-laptops.
They're nice build/build quality and look really sleek. However, I think the software/firmware can be spotty (had some issues with sleep on them).
Please review the recent gamers Nexus and Salem techsperts videos on Razer before buying one.
Most common problem is the battery going full spicy pillow, and replacements not being available
I've had two in the past, but recently moved away from them. I liked having a discrete gpu for ML work, the first one was a great machine, but the latest one burns through the battery in an hour or two that I decided to not get a razer this time around.
But I appreciate the heads up!
