$1000 PC or Razer Blade Stealth?

I was looking to build a PC with $1000 as my budget and I came across the Razer Blade Stealth for $1000. I already have an Xbox 360 and One with a pretty large selection of games. I am still in school and while a laptop would certainly come in very handy it is not absolutely necessary.

 

So, with all these factors in mind, what should I get? A $1000 PC (peripherals not included) or a Razer Blade Stealth?

A pc would have much better specs than a laptop.

Build it, so much more value and then you could always just sell one of your consoles for a cheap laptop to use for productivity while you aren't home.

This would come down to personal preference. What's more important to you? Gaming on pc or having a nice laptop for school? For me it's gaming which is why I don't own a laptop and do everything on my desktop anyways.

This is definitely the way to go for gaming, for under a grand you have a overclockable z170 system that will play anything at 1440p.
