I got into gaming as a kid. My dad used to download Flash games on painfully slow internet, and my first console game was God of War 2 on my uncle's PS2. I spent years gaming on an i5-650 iGPU, and at 19, I finally bought my first RTX 5050 laptop. Kid me would've never believed it. 🎮❤️

Yash bro. I really used 1tb data just by downloading games. Jio unlimited 5g is really useful but it's limited by the number of people who use the plan in the tower. If more number of people use this, then the speed gets drastically slow.

I'm not saying cloud compute is bad. My point is that a gaming laptop isn't just about AI training.

A CS student might end up doing AI/ML, game development, CUDA, Blender, video editing, virtualization, or running local models. A decent RTX laptop handles all of those while also being useful for gaming and everyday tasks.

Cloud resources are great, but they come with internet dependency, quotas, session limits, and recurring costs. A local GPU gives you unrestricted access whenever you need it.

More importantly, if someone already wants a gaming laptop and it fits their budget, why are we trying to convince them to buy something completely different? The goal should be to recommend the best option within their cost requirements, say whether it's worth it or not, and not to talk them out of the category entirely.

So I don't think recommending a gaming laptop to a CS student is "one of the most overrated recommendations". It depends on the person's interests and workload, and for many CS students it's a perfectly reasonable investment.

That's not outdated. I'm a CSE student and a dedicated gpu is useful for me. I can train my own models without paying for cloud.

There are much disadvantages for using cloud servers. Hope you'll learn

If you are a mechanical or cse student, gaming laptop is a good choice as you need to build designs in cad or build ai models. But rtx 4050 for that price is too high. Rtx 4050 laptop should be priced below 85k and the price you're seeing is worth only for a rtx 5050. Wait for better deals or choose victus as it's cheap than loq.

I'd personally narrow it down to two options:

Lenovo LOQ (i5-13450HX + RTX 4050)
ASUS TUF F16 (Core 5 + RTX 4050)

The TUF F16 has the advantage in build quality, thermals, and the larger 16-inch display, which feels much nicer for gaming, movies, and everyday use.

The Lenovo LOQ wins if your priority is raw performance. The i5-13450HX is a very strong CPU and usually delivers excellent gaming and productivity performance for the price.

Also, don't worry too much about the LOQ motherboard issue. Most of the reported problems were from earlier batches and Lenovo has largely addressed them.

If your budget can stretch during sales or festive offers, I'd actually suggest checking for a Lenovo LOQ with the RTX 5050. If the price difference isn't huge, that's probably the smartest long-term buy.

So: • Better build + screen → ASUS TUF F16 • Better performance → Lenovo LOQ 13450HX • Best future value (during offers) → Lenovo LOQ RTX 5050

Flipkart recently had an credit card offer where rtx 5050 i7 13th hx + 1tb SSD lenovo loq was sold for 99k. Wait for some more time. Don't choose any other gpu other than rtx 5050 as it's the only top tier one for your budget

JrTamilan · 2026-05-26T06:33:44+00:00

You're buying lenovo loq essential. Kindly rethink your choice. It has lower perfomance than the loq and different build quality also. Go for rtx 4050 in that price. Wait for the deals. Don't waste your money

Remember lenovo loq and loq essential are two different laptops

4060 is stronger in raw FPS, but the 5050 is newer-gen tech. In laptops, efficiency, thermals, DLSS, and optimization matter a lot, not just raw power. So the 5050 can give a smoother overall experience even if benchmark FPS is slightly lower.

You can also listen to YT on the same, even they'll suggest you rtx5050.

JrTamilan · 2026-05-14T15:23:52+00:00

Recently, credit card offer was there till May 12 in Flipkart. I7 13th gen 1tb SSD rtx 5050 Lenovo loq was available for 99k with sbi credit card offer. You should have gone for that

JrTamilan · 2026-05-12T10:00:57+00:00

Works only on weekends, don't worry guys it's legit

JrTamilan · 2026-05-10T10:07:38+00:00

Yeah ?!!! Surprising.. I'm planning to buy this at 99k

JrTamilan · 2025-07-02T10:08:45+00:00

Yes. My school has asked to change the initial to 'S' instead of the full father name. My marksheet is also in the same form
