You should definitely ask yourself if you want to spend more now, and save in the future, or just buy a more powerful laptop and spend more over time.įor what it's worth I am a certifed CompTIA A+ technician. The video cards are a pain to upgrade, hard to locate, and ridiculous expeniive. I would steer clear of stuff like alienware, especially laptops. You can get a awesome mechanical keyboard too. In the long run a solid desktop will overpower a laptop anyday of the week, and save you hundreds, if not thousands of dollars over the years. Maybe even after that if you purchase wisely buy making sure you get a good socket motherboard. You can buy a $400 laptop every 3 years that sucks, or drop a grand now and upgrade till windows 10 is no more. I have been using the same PC for 8 years now, and only upgraded the video card and cpu once. Of course if you want to drop a grand you can build a plenty powerful PC, it may not be eye candy, but will last you for a very long time. Yeah it has a crap processor (but it can be upgraded), it has a Nvidia GTX 650, 8 gigs of ram, windows 7, and a overpowered PSU. I built my brother a gaming PC for under $500.00 recently. You don't even have to drop a grand if you shop around for parts, with intent to upgrade in the future. You will get the best bang for your buck, with option to upgrade as necessary. For anyone who can read and is not color blind it is a lot easier than you think. If you want a good gaming PC right now the absolute best route is building a PC. It use to be true, but now both are great options. One could argue that mac is better for video and audio production, but this is a myth. Mac has no idea what I want, and they can't know what everyone wants except people afraid of a virus, who can't googe-fu their way out of a jam. PC says 'We don't know what you want, but we will give you the flexibility to do what you want'. Mac says 'this is what our consumers want, and this is all they will get'. The thing with Mac is that it is built for a specific consumer in mind.

Personally I love Aoemi Backupper, you can save an image day one, and load it back up anytime. There are system restores, you can always just reinstall windows, automatic backups, and 3rd party software. There are plenty of ways to combat a virus in windows these days. Is that really worth paying double? To me no.

The main reason people tell me they get a Mac is because they can't get a virus. Once the Mega Man Zero series ended, efforts continued on to the Nintendo DS with the Mega Man ZX Series Thanks to the Mega Man Zero / ZX Legacy Collection. Not to bash the mac fans, but you're essentially paying double for a computer that is half as powerful, with no easy way to upgrade.
