    Tbh I was never really a console player, but the fact that you can squeeze a 4k experiece, or even a great 1080p out of a 400€ console is just brutal. I pull for the laptop as well, but then again the question still remains that when should I buy it.

    So basically all the new tech is being announced now, nVidia's RTX lineup, Intel 9th series leaks and so on, I'm starting to really get confused which way to choose when it comes to portability, raw power and price. I'm the in third month into looking for a good compromise between a more expensive "gaming" laptop (hate that word) or a cheaper variant with a console or a PC. Prices are going up and down, and I would really want to know whether it is the right time for this kind of purchase, or should I wait a quarter of a year or so for the current tech getting cheaper, or the new tech being available. The budget is around 800-1200€ ($1400 USD or $1800CAD) To put together, I need a portable PC which is powerful enough for object modelling and rendering (lots of Autodesk products), same with photo and video editing and rendering. Also, it would be great being able to play at smooth 1080p at ultra to normal settings in AAA titles for at least 2 years. So basicly, since I'm a heavy PC user I wouldn't want to go below i7 series, and for games at least a 1050Ti. But in a laptop form, with an i7-7700HQ and 8GB RAM + a 1050Ti would set me back with est. 950€ (Acer Nitro 5 Shale), an i7-8750H, 8GB RAM, GTX1050Ti variant would be around 1060€ (Same series Acer), and the i7-8750H + 8GB RAM + GTX 1060 would be 1250€. A brand new PS4 Pro, which I could use on my 4k TV plus a cheaper laptop would be at the same price range than the most expensive variant. Same with a better PC, but then I would compromise on the laptop. But then again, an all-in-one factor would be the best, but I'm in a serious "should or shouldn't I" rush. I would need a good laptop sooner or later, and I want to game as well, and I don't really want an upgrade for an another 2-3 years. What would be the better option? Wait, and buy the expensive, or buy now, and upgrade later.
