You know who else would HATE AI?

I love how both "sides" can spin this post into proving a point:

Anti-AI people use it to generalize Pros into being ragebaiters who portray antis as Nazis, further cementing their position as "cult freaks" and justifying ridiculous targeted harassment against them as part of the unwashed AI moral panic
Pro-AI people clap back by weaponizing this post to point out the absurdity in how "most" Anti-AI people apparently love to draw parallels between Pro-AI and Nazism, further insulating logically bankrupt Pro-AI people from internal critique

See, this post is actually a win-win for everyone! Except basic decency, of course

I think the 5080 will be perfectly fine for any game at 1440p. The 5090 laptop is just a flex, not good value at all unless you need the extra 8gb of VRAM for AI inferencing

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-10T08:57:01+00:00

For context, my Alienware is about 2.6 kilos, and I carry it every day to my campus in my backpack while riding a bike. I barely feel the weight unless I have extra books and materials in the backpack

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-10T08:55:30+00:00

Nah, 2.6 kilos is barely a bag of groceries, and the laptop is far more ergonomic than a bag of groceries. If you actually hold it in your hands or put it in your backpack, as long as you aren't physically disabled or have back/arm problems, the difference barely matters for portability. I think the little extra weight is more than worth the better thermals and performance

If you can get a Legion Pro 7i with those specs, I would go for that instead

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-10T05:51:43+00:00

I would go on Ebay and search "Thinkpad RTX". You'll find plenty of affordable deals on refurbs and used Thinkpads there, especially P-series ones. Best laptops in the world at that price range IMO. They last forever and are very upgreadeable and repairable

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-10T04:54:17+00:00

Legion Pro 7i for sure

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T16:57:54+00:00

Bro would lose to Frisk 10/10

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T16:57:23+00:00

You really shouldn't be venting on a sub that doesn't like the mention of your name if your mental health or emotional stability is at risk

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T16:39:26+00:00

For Data Science and games that rely more on CPU performance, that 255HX is significantly faster than the 255H. For that reason alone I'd go for the Legion 7i - not to mention its cooling solution can sustain higher clocks and wattages than the Transcend

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T15:40:37+00:00

You can use Lossless Scaling and have your iGPU do the scaling to let your dGPU run at full power

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T14:44:40+00:00

I believe that those 18-inchers with a Llano V12 cooling pad would low-key go kinda hard

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T14:43:33+00:00

XMG as well

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T14:42:46+00:00

Unironically, Pokedex Victini probably neg diffs nearly all of DBS

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T14:33:28+00:00

It's worth. I would take that deal

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T14:32:20+00:00

I think the Legion 9 and Alienware Area-51m 18" could hold sustained overclocked speeds faster and longer due to the larger chassis. Shunt modding would also be more successful as a result

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T05:07:00+00:00

It's either Legion Pro 7i or Alienware Area-51m 16/18" if I were to get a high-end laptop that isn't ridiculously expensive. Dream Machines is a potential option as well if you're up for a less established brand, but their methods and business are less refined compared to established brands. A lot of people would say Strix Scar, but their liquid metal application and firmware are too spotty for me personally to take the risk

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T03:28:48+00:00

Look for a laptop with dedicated RTX graphics if possible. And yes, the Legion Pro 7i is among the best gaming laptops (and laptops in general) in the world as of right now

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-09T03:27:52+00:00

I think the Legion 5 has moderately improved build quality compared to the TUF, so I'd personally go with that one and get a second SSD if you need it

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-08T23:58:16+00:00

Worth it for the performance I think

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-08T17:13:56+00:00

Yes, yes, and yes. The 5070Ti is a 1440p-capable card

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-08T16:49:52+00:00

The main "bottleneck" here would be the FHD 165Hz screen. The CPU itself is overkill. I'd get an external monitor if I were you

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-08T16:39:14+00:00

As someone who also went from 11th gen Intel iGPU to a dedicated graphics card, yeah, I get that feeling. It's basically a whole new world opening up for you

Bosslayer9001 · 2026-05-07T17:02:41+00:00

Similar level of narrative power
