asus builds pure trash. cant even reach the fans to clean them. acer is even worse. dell builds perfect sturdy notebook that are easy to maintain and clean. id go for a good equipped dell.

Depends on what series you are referring to.

Just fishing for opinions I would like to do photo editing/video editing, gaming ( mostly esport type stuff and a few AAA games I don't expect to run like crysis at max lol ) and a bit of music editing + going into a course in sept for It they said I don't need a computer but I would like one to learn CompTIA at home whatever that requires.

the prospects I currently have are these ( it has to be a laptop I can't build a rig currently. )

ASUS ROG Strix Scar Edition

Dell

Nitro 5

Also just curious what is more desired a 1050 ti 4gig vram or a 1060 3gig vram? wouldn't more vram be wanted to run faster?

Thanks to whoever takes the time to look through and give me advice :hug:

Budget?

asus rog/strix are horrible. no chance for maintenance. only small space to change disk/ram, rest is glued. acer same problem for the nitro series.
