My son enjoys playing video games, and his birthday is soon. He now uses a desktop computer, but I want to give him a powerful gaming laptop. I am not very technical in specifications and other things.

A surprise for him would be nice, so feel free to propose any laptop for gaming. The cools members will no doubt offer me some fantastic ideas.

I'd like to assist you but before kindly tell us about your budget its all depends on how much you're willing to spend
