A similar question was raised some day’s ago from a other person, but with different background. In this case, I would like to buy a nice gaming laptop. Of course I would use it for office and coding to, but primary I’m searching recommendations for gaming. I would like to play Wine/Proton game’s and also native Linux games. As OS, I like to use Manjaro Gnome.

Should I better buy all of AMD (if yes, which CPI, GPU) or Intel/Nvidia? Or Intel CPU and AMD GPU? Which combination is the right one with best performance for a casual gamer? I prefer FPS games, if that’s important…

    A few more details would go a long way in offering actually helpful recommendations.

    • What is your budget?
      • Without that, I’m just going to recommend the highest end possible machine, which may be unaffordable to you.
    • What country are you in?
      • There could be an amazing deal on right now, but only for US residents; this won’t help you if you don’t live there.

      I’m looking for a US deal under $3000. Most of what I’ve seen of this year’s models is selling near MSRP still.
