Hey everyone,
I’m in the market for a gaming laptop, I’ve got around £2000 to spend and I seem to have narrowed things down to either a Razer Blade 15 (2018) or an Asus Zephyrus GM501.
The laptops main use will be a combination of Photo/Video/Design work and then Gaming in my own time. I have an external NAS for storage so that’s not an issues when it comes to the work side of things. I will be hooking the laptop up to a 34” ultrawide monitor when it is at my desk.
Which of these two would you recommend or should I be looking at something else?
Additionally, I had been considering an eGPU docking solution using an existing 980 Ti, would this be worth it or are laptop GPU’s at a point now where they are comparable once you take into consideration the loss of “power” when using the TB3 connection? Or would I be better looking for a standard docking solution to connect to my desk setup?
Any opinions, help or assistance welcomed
