: Should I sell my laptop to save for a gaming computer?
I have a dell vostro v13 and I was planning on selling it to get a 1500 dollar gaming computer by Christmas. I would be able to sell it for 400 on ebay. I travel from my mom to my dads house every week so the laptop was useful but I really need a gaming desktop. My dad doesn’t want me to sell it but I think I should. My mom doesn’t care if I sell it.

If you’re a serious gamer then yes. While it will be tough without a laptop, if you think you can save $ 1500 by December then go for it. Especially if you’re looking to buy something like an Alienware Desktop — an Alienware Aurora desktop is only $ 1200 at the moment.
Although I would suggest holding out and saving money from other sources and waiting until mid-November to sell your laptop at least. You really don’t realize how inconvenient life can be without one.
EDIT: Nunya, the asker clearly said he was looking for a gaming DESKTOP.
OP, you should choose Alex as BA. He seems well versed on gaming computers. He probably doesn’t leave the house much so I’m sure he knows a lot.

If you want to be able to game easily, get a gaming desktop. “Gaming” laptops dont last long since games tend to need more then they can give in a year or two. Not to mention hourse of high cpu and gpu reduce component lifeAnswer by Nicoletta Ven
Better buy a tablet. See what are the differences between a laptop and a tablet hereAnswer by Alex Raven
Almost every answer here is not relevant to the question 🙂 If you really want to play games you surely need gaming desktop, and not max or alienware – buy custom built one. You can actually buy cheaper computer that $ 1500 one and still will be able to play all games on max, today the best price point is around $ 1000-1200. Get Intel i5 based one, with 4+GB RAM and good video card like at least GTX 460 and it will be a perfect one. Check link below:
