I already have a semi-gaming desktop but i need something more portable to go with on the go. Im wondering what the cheapest laptop for games and general use is, and where to find it at? I like amd because its usually cheaper or better than NVIDIA in some cases.

please also include the price. I would prefer to buy 2nd hand or refurbished to save on costs if i even do get the money for a better laptop.

Agreed. I’m really happy with my combo of a used LCD Steam Deck and a Surface Go with Fedora hooked to a screen.

Although I still need my Playstation 5 for demanding games.
