I think the question boils down to two things: your budget and your movement frequency. If you move around or travel a lot. Or you stay at home and have a lower side budget. Then the laptop is your choice. If you have a better budget and stay at home often, then a desktop is your best option.
I really miss having a desktop. This is the type of upgradable and affordable desktop I was looking for. It’s hard to beat for the price and I’m sure it will go down several hundred in the next few months like its predecessor did. I’ve been gaming on laptops for 16 years now and can’t wait to go back to a mighty desktop. I had a powerhouse desktop in the 90’s in my 20’s playing Mechwarrior games. The golden age! I miss gpu power and loading up on excessive ram and maxing out my tower like a muscle car. This desktop is a great option.
I just got the orion 3k with 3060ti and it works great comming from a laptop with 2070.just gotta remember to set up fan speed and it's all good.81 c while gaming
i come from two experiences with gaming laptop "asus" and they both fried the motherboard. i suppose the cooling system simply can't handle the heart, and i now believe this applies to all laptops so from now on i will take only desktop, the Orion 3000 seems pretty decent but still affordable, i will probably go for this one....
Thank you for this amazing video. I have a question: I want to buy Acer Predator Orion 3000 P03-640 Core i7-12700F, 32 Gb ram, Rtx 3070 8Gb just for video editing as I intend to make money off of it. How well would it fare against apps like After Effects, Premier Pro, etc.
I am thinking to buy predator Helios 300 12 th gen i7 for sometime now, how the laptop compared to other similar speced laptops ( msi, HP, .. ) . And what’s the gpu tdp
I think you shouldn't buy most oem pc's. Lenovo has some good ones and so does hp but the rest all have flaws with acer it's the cooling the aio is to small and only the vrm has heatsinks. The m.2 and chipset aren't cooled

Sounds fantastic, it's a great laptop for sure!
Are you still satisfied with the performance/temperatures/etc?
@@JK0712 I changed it to acer predator and it’s good 70 c under full load in d4 110 fps
@@zomg346 70 c sounds great! what did you change exactly? the fans?
@@JK0712 i changed to different model same specs and 150 bucks less and temps are way better

You’ll be plenty happy with it!

For a starting point, it’ll do you fine! Ultimately you’ll be more concerned with storage in the near future more than anything else.

And what’s the gpu tdp
Can the desktop play totalwar warhammer 3??
the only problem with a laptop is the fact that its so much harder to upgrade. put its easy with a desktop. even if its the same price
As mentioned, pros and cons to both sides!
How many SSD Slots are there in the Orion 3000?
2 m.2 slots
@@mubinhadi9275 thank you. I can see the 1st slot but I can’t find the 2nd
@@DrippyVisuals should be near the ram I think
@@mubinhadi9275 Thank you for replying & I can see the one near the ram. Could the 2nd slot be behind the GPU?
@@DrippyVisuals yeah should be above the gpu belies the cpu fan
