Hi guys!
I'm about to buy a laptop but i have a hard time deciding. The laptop will be used for gaming and photo/video processing.

I have a couple options(all the laptops have a second slot for SSD and RAM):

First of all if you want a laptop for “Gaming”, good luck. They’re all terrible for purpose, have terrible battery life and lose all portability because you need to be attached to a socket at all times.

If you’re fully committed however what games and what settings would be nice to know.

For photo video production, you can either choose some entry level gaming laptop or an apple macbook pro.

I believe any 15 inch laptop with 8th gen i7 and 4 GB GTX GPU would be enough, however if gaming is your top priority then get the one with the best GPU.

Also, make sure the storage is a SSD. It makes a big difference in performance.

If i had to pick one from these 6, i would pick either 3rd or the 6th option, probably 6th.

NOTE: If looking for a thin and light gaming laptop, check out the latest Dell 7590. If you find it expensive, then MSI GF 63 is also an option.
