Buying a gaming laptop Same model But the i5 costs $50 more and appears to be in a slitghy thicker chasis due to the fan exhaust fan being different. I know the i5 is faster but how much will i notice it in gaming will the 3550h be a significant downgrade?. Gpu is a GTX 1050 3GB GDDR5 on both i will be targeting 1080p 60fps medium settings. I already own a desktop with an rtx 2070/3700x buying this laptop because my time available at home on my desktop is much smaller.
