Mejo ot but related.

The goal: gaming laptop worth P40k that graphically performs AT LEAST AT PAR with an xbone or ps4?

Suggestions?

the majority of pinoy pc builders I know have a budget of around 50k.. bihira lang ako makarinig nang mag bbuild na tatapatan ang price ng console.. there was one guy back then who I helped building for a budget of around 25k.. but ang intention niya ay for dota 2 and starcarft 2

and those who do not want to "build" go straight for gaming laptops.. its more expensive in terms of price:performance ratio, but they don't mind

some people build for a secondary "steam box", katabi ng console nila sa living room

for most people I know, they don't mind building a pc for 50k.. considering makakabili ka ng games sa steam na sobrang mura.. for example, magkano ba tomb raider ngayon sa ps4? around 1.6k? right now its on sale on steam, mas mahal pa ang mocha frap.. plus, you get a much more fluid lara croft hair

I'm thinking of Alienware Alpha Console

Interesting read. For practical reasons, IMHO, its better to get those i3 or i5 laptops na lang para makamura then invest na lang sa RAM at HDD. It may not play most next gen titles pero it handles some ps3 to pc port titles well enough and have a decent fps too.
