Depends on your usage pattern, but I think I'll go with desktop. They are easier to upgrade, though at a cost of bulkiness and having to carry your monitor, mouse and keyboard with you if you are travelling.

I have ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism_spectrum

 

I apologies if my comments or post offends you in any way, or if my rage got a little too far. I'll try my best to make my post as non-offensive as much as possible.

We need more information on your use case tho in order to help you make a decision.

Laptops and Desktops both have their advantages and disadvantages and its up to you to decide what weighs more for your use case.

Remember: If you want me to see your reply - Quote me!

 

If your question has been solved, please mark the thread as solved by choosing the answer that has helped you the most as the correct/solving one.

 

Please also use appropriate titles. Titles should be a short description of your situation to get people interested in looking at your thread. Titles such as "help" or "i have a problem" (etc.) will only lead to you getting less to zero help, cause people won't be able to tell what this thread is about and therefore don't bother looking into it.

I travel about twice a year for about 2 weeks

can you do without PC in that time period? or must you game even while traveling?

 

how far are you traveling? are you willing to lug around a full desktop setup including a monitor?

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

Not very far

tbh no one can decide for you, only you can decide if you're willing to lug around a full desktop setup

 

but tbh if you wanna game and stream, you probably should also get external monitor and kb for your laptop anyways

but u can do 2 weeks without those

 

again, it's up to you
