* the B550 motherboard only has 2 fan headers so you will need a fan splitter
Advantages of the laptop: everything will be in one machine (online classes on Zoom and gaming) and the lower price
Advantages of the desktop: 6GB of video memory and adding or replacing fans and heatsinks can reduce thermal throttling
This gives you an idea how the 4GB on the laptop versus the 6GB on the desktop can affect performance in the newest games with ray tracing https://www.notebookche
For old games like Roblox (your kid) or Minecraft (my kids), the 3050 and 1660TI should perform similarly. I was actually contemplating buying a refurb Asus (out of stock now) https://www.ebay.com/itm/374049050648 for $240 and adding a video card, but then I jumped on the laptop deal yesterday because I can just replace their current m5 6y57 laptops with the G15s (instead of having them do Zoom stuff on the laptop and gaming stuff on the desktop)

nonetheless the laptop is a laptop.... you get all the benefits of a portable all in one machine so I would go with that unless you plan to upgrade the PC down the road
