Usually gaming laptops have a relatively expensive price with specifications that can be said to be suitable for playing games. Through the following article, I will share tips on how to choose a gaming laptop correctly.
Many people claim that for gaming, it's better to use a PC than a laptop. I think that assumption is not wrong, considering that the PC itself has many advantages in gaming business rather than laptops. One of the advantages of a PC is its ease in upgrading computer hardware.
Not inferior to PCs, laptops also have their own plus in gaming. One of them is simple, efficient, and easy to carry everywhere. So you can play games anywhere, whether it's at school, campus or cafe. I myself usually play games together with my schoolmates during recess.
Having a gaming laptop doesn't have to be expensive. If you know what things need to be considered when you want to buy a gaming laptop, it is possible that you can get a gaming laptop at a cheap price. Okay, here are things that need to be considered.
How to choose a gaming laptop?
1. Note the VGA chipset series, not the large VGA memory
The mistake that is often made when people want to buy a gaming laptop is to pay more attention to the memory on VGA or VRAM than the chipset series on the VGA. Though what needs to be considered is the series chipset, not the amount of memory. Different in terms of graphic design, VRAM is very important but in gaming it is not really needed.
To make it easier to choose the right VGA for gaming, consider the chipset series. For example NVIDIA GeForce GT 720M, how to read it as follows:
The first digit shows the generation, meaning the VGA is the seventh generation
The second and third digits indicate the class level or performance, the higher the number the better the performance of a VGA.
The most important ones are the second and third digits, for example the Nvidia GeForce GT 720M performs below the Nvidia GeForce GT 635M but the GT 635M technology is more sophisticated because of its newer generation. The VGA chipset series that I made the example above is the VGA version of the mobile chipset, not the desktop version.
2. Don't ignore the role of the processor
Many people prioritize VGA over the processor when they want to buy a gaming laptop. They tend to choose VGA which is very good performance but not balanced with a good processor.
This is not wrong, but it should be noted that the role of the processor can not be considered one eye again, because more and more games that perform various complex calculations on the processor.
In addition, the number of core / core that is owned by the processor can reduce the rendering process carried out by VGA. I recommend choosing a laptop with a non ULV processor, because the ULV series processor is not good for gaming.
3. The amount of RAM the Laptop has
The greater the RAM capacity that the laptop has, the more smooth the multitasking process. Do not be too preoccupied with the RAM clock speed because the average game currently prioritizes RAM capacity rather than RAM clock speed.
4. Pay attention to hard disk capacity
Make sure the minimum hard disk capacity is 500GB. If you have more funds, there is no harm in upgrading to even greater.
It should also be noted, upgrading the hard disk is not only to increase storage capacity, but also increase laptop performance.
5. Choose a laptop that can be upgraded components
Although not all components on the laptop can be upgraded. Try to choose a laptop that supports upgrading components such as RAM and hard disk.
By upgrading components, it can improve performance on laptops. The component that is mainly upgraded is RAM and the second is the hard disk.
6. Pay attention to the size of the laptop screen
Screen size is an indicator of comfort in playing games. Choose the screen size as needed, I think a laptop with a 14 layar screen size is more than enough.
If you want a more interesting gaming experience, there's nothing wrong with choosing a laptop with a screen size of 15 17 - 17 ″.
7. Choose a laptop that has a variety of ports
Choose a laptop that offers diverse connectivity. Make sure the laptop has at least the following ports:
USB 2.0 port
USB 3.0 port
HDMI port
D-Sub port
USB 2.0 port and USB 3.0 port is of course very important to install peripherals that support gaming comfort such as a mouse, keyboard, or joystick. It's less interesting if you use an internal keyboard (laptop) and touchpad when playing games.
If you intend to play games and want to connect to an LCD TV or monitor with a larger screen size, choose a laptop that also provides HDMI ports and D-Sub ports.
8. Pay attention to the old laptop warranty
Every laptop vendor is different in providing a guarantee to its customers. The average length of warranty on a laptop is 1 year, the longer the better.
Claiming a warranty needs to be done if at any time there is damage to the laptop hardware. There is nothing wrong if you consider the warranty in choosing a gaming laptop.
Conclusion
Today many laptops are circulating with varying prices and varied specifications. Therefore you have to be even wiser when you want to buy a gaming laptop. Note the 8 things that I have said above, do not be consumed by persuasive salespeople.
Maybe that's all I want to say today, I hope my short writing will be useful for you.
