GPU is the real difference between an average laptop and a Gaming Laptop. You may have an Intel Core i7 Processor with 16 GB of fast RAM but a gaming laptop comprising of just Intel Core i5 Processor with 8 GB of RAM plus GTX1050M will beat that any day in gaming.

We help you choose DELL for GAMING LAPTOP from a handful list of Dell Laptops available in the market. The reality of a gaming laptop is that it gets overwhelmed once you start playing heavy-weight games on it. I also bought a few of them but little did I know that the laptop I bought would inexplicably put me in a tangle.
I want all the readers to be mindful of certain aspects of gaming that are must-haves while going after such laptops.
Talking of real-world explanations, higher refresh rates benefit gamers by ensuring what they are watching on the screen matches what’s happening on the computer. While 30 fps is good for any TV show, 60 fps is a bare minimum for gamers.
Although GPU and Graphics Card are often used interchangeably, there is a subtle difference between the two. Just like a motherboard has a CPU, a graphics card refers to an add-in board that comprises of GPU.
Always opt-in for a discrete graphics card. Preferences should be given to at least 6 GB of VRAM. AMD recommends a 6 GB card for modern pc games to avoid gameplay stutter, frame drops, and error messages.
Battery backup is just as essential. You certainly don’t want to bump into a gaming laptop that provides 15-20 minutes of backup esp in its fag end of the first year.
