So, I have finally ordered a laptop with my aging desktop. I was planning to buy a desktop gaming computer but then decided to buy a laptop instead in which it will provide me with mobility and allows me to game on the go. Now the desktop that I currently have is a Pentium 4 3.06Ghz with 1GB RAM and a GT120 GPU. To this day, it still works perfectly fine due to the care and attention and constant cleaning every 5 months or so.
But I have decided that I need a laptop that can play the latest games as well as keep up with my work. I was planning to buy a MacBook Pro with Retina display (them resolutions man) but the price is too much
