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.

    Secondhand macbook pro with the M2 chip and as much memory / hdd available ; it is said to avoid 8g of ram, I went with 16.

    Slap Asahi on it, the latest version plays games quite nicely - and since Asahi is dual-boot anyway, you can try the macos side if something fails.

    (Currently Asahi doesn’t support m3 or m4 chips. M2 machines should be available at bargain prices, mine new was €1500)
