Sorry but you can't "dominate" gaming with a laptop.

Sorry but you can't "dominate" gaming with a laptop.

Easy there, Mr. PC Desktop master race. Consider the following. The geforce 880m runs Battlefield 4 at 51FPS at maximum possible details at 1080p resolution. now, on a 15 inch 1080p screen, you dont really need anti aliasing, meaning you can turn that down to 4x msaa instead of 16x, or off altogether, and considerably boost FPS. now, since the standard refresh rate is 60FPS on laptop screens, we are now running at the refresh cap that most people run at.

Well, look at that, we are running the same game with the same or greater detail than many people play at, since many people do not play at the absolute highest settings.

The same argument applies to any other pc game out today.

So tell me again how you cant "dominate" gaming with a laptop, especially since this machine has more than enough power to play anything out on the market today?

Because when it comes to gaming performance this laptop is essentially a mediocre desktop from 2 years ago but you pay today's premium for it...
