What's the best non-Mac laptop that allows to comfortably use Ligthroom and occasionally launch a /v/ideo game?
>>
save yourself some trouble, dont be a poorfag and just grab pic related in the m5 (pro) config - like any professional that is starting out (noticedhow most of the OpeanAI, Anthropic SWE gigabrains use a mac, quite the coincidence hmm?)

Yeah but will it run vidya games?

Yes, but don't buy MacBook unless you can afford the 16 inch m5 one, it's the only one with two fans.

14 inch m5 pro has 1 cooling fan, air or neo don't have fans at all.

The problem you'll find is that you will only achieve decent FPS on recent titles if you have a macbook at least 3 times the price of any good laptop for that purpose. Basically at that point you could just grab a cheaper macbook for whatever artfaggotry AND a gayming PC even with the current prices.

Yes, but only good games (PS3 era and before). A select few modern games can run (Death Stranding, Crimson Desert). It basically has a built in shitty games filter.

So it filters -in- shitty games?

>>108792744
Yeah I guess all of us should rush to an Apple store to spend over 3 grand to get an apple laptop that can run elden ring at 60fps without shitting itself or we haven't made it

Get a desktop and a thin and light laptop to remote into the tower. Don’t fall for gaming laptop meme.

>Computer 1 - HP Pavilion from around 2013
1.) I have a separate older laptop running Windows 10 that runs Lightroom.
>Computer 2 - Home Build from 2024 (there are two additional storage SSDs - one for music and one for everything else)
2.) I also have 3 OS's, installed on 3 different physical SSDs, one of them running Windows and Lightroom/Photoshop.
3.) Another one of the SSDs on #2, above, has Windows 11 + Steam installed.
4.) Another SSD is used for my favorite Linux distro, which I will not name.

I recommend using a separate computer/laptop than your gaming laptop for Lightroom. Also, don't allow it internet access.
I have other laptops too. I have another one that runs Windows, but its a virgin. I want to use it for Autocad. (autocad has a retarded UI for new users)
I just cannibalized another laptop like 2 weeks ago and kept key components. The monitor was acting retarded and I'm not replacing screens again. fuck that.
