laptop or desktop

[jevjev]

so i havent been on the forums for a while,

the reason for that is due to my custom pc getting broken by my foster brother and now im wondering on what to do.

 

i currently have a lenovo yoga laptop which i use for schoolwork but can hardly run simple games such as minecraft without getting over 30 fps all settings minimum, so im going to upgrade as i do graphics and gaming on top of school work but i do not know whether to buy a laptop or build a desktop.

 

my budget is £800 maybe £1000 if i wait a little longer, i know building pcs is cheaper but a laptops portability would be useful so i do not know what to do and have come to you guys for recommendations.

 

a laptop i could use for when im out an about for school work and on the go graphics work and game when plugged in at home, but a pc i could get better performance for the same price.

 

would you get a laptop or pc?

 

(i live near a locale electronic second hand shop so i can get gaming laptops slightly cheaper eg

MSI GE62VR-7RF for £810)

thanks for the help

Do you really need the portability? Take my case for instance: I bring my laptop almost everyday to uni, and I back home (yes, I'm studying abroad) quite often. Hence, a desktop PC will not work since I always carry around my lappy

 

It comes down to practicality
