What to look for in a portable gaming laptop

1. Performance

Gaming laptops should have a powerful processor and enough RAM to run games smoothly. Look for a laptop with at least an Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 CPU and 16GB of RAM.

2. Graphics Card

The graphics card is crucial for rendering detailed images quickly. A laptop with a dedicated GPU from Nvidia or AMD will offer the best gaming performance.

3. Display

For the best gaming experience, look for a laptop with a high-resolution display. A screen with a high refresh rate (120Hz or higher) can also make games look smoother.

4. Battery Life

Since you're looking at portable options, consider battery life. Gaming can drain battery quickly, so if you plan on gaming on-the-go, look for laptops with longer battery life.
