I can't decide on what to get either laptop or desktop as they both have disadvantages. What do you recommend on getting a 1.4k laptop ( MSI ) or 1.4k Desktop build?
The desktop will perform WAY better at that price point. To get the kind of performance in a laptop that you get in a 1,400 dollar pc, you need to spend over 2k, easily. Do you travel often? Is there any reason you need mobility? Thats the only reason I would imagine you would want a laptop.
Go for desktop. You can upgrade them in future easily. Laptops for gaming are not so preffered for their small screen and also you have to attach an external mouse for gaming.
Desktops are best !!
