OMG...I wish I could adequately respond to the amount of stupid comments. It's a brand new system with a warranty, not some stolen crackhead PC off of Facebook marketplace or Mercari. Why the F would anyone try to compare brand new to used? $599 is a great price for an entry level gaming system that is not proprietary. Literally every part can be upgraded and/or re-cased. CPU is only 95 watts, GPU 125 watts--the whole system under load only pulls less than 250 watts. I build ITX systems with more powerful parts and there's no airflow problem. As someone who owns a computer store for 27 years...I'd buy this over a laptop for a kid 99/100 times. Kids break laptops all the time, there is almost no upgrading down the road, and repairs are more costly and take longer. A desktop will last infinitely longer than a laptop.

A mobile 3050 is going to perform much worse than the 1660ti in a desktop. Both are good deals for different reasons and people.

At this point I would highly recommend buying something higher end and/or newer. Nothing in here is bad (it'll run mostly anything at 1080p), but the CPU and GPU are both from 2019. With the way things change in PC parts, I don't think this is a good investment 3-4 years down the line. And the Asus prebuilt I have with a 3080 had heat troubles, had to do a case swap and cooler swap to make it adequate.

I'm sticking with the Dell G15 because I got in on the deal yesterday with an additional 12% off code making it $518 (I only had the 40 off 200 Amex offer, so I didn't bite in the 588 - 120 deal).

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.notebookcheck.net/The...768.0.html [notebookcheck.net]

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)
A 1080p webcam can be had for $20 or less so everything is possible on the desktop as well. The i5-9400 vs. Ryzen 5 3600x is not even close, the Ryzen is twice as fast on every benchmark. You're dead in the water for cpu upgrade on 9th gen whereas the AMD can be upgraded with a BIOS flash all the way to a 5950x. A 2 TB 7200 rpm drive and another8 gb of ram for about $100 makes this better and let's not forget that screen size and quality come into effect. You can buy a decent 24" with 144 hz curved for under $150. Laptop you get what you get and lets not try to compare laptop GPU's with desktops...none come close to the desktop equivalents.

The market has changed considerably since then. This is an okay deal for an entry level desktop, especially with the price of parts plummeting and new CPUs/GPUs coming out in a few months. On top of that, with crypto in a bear market and Ethereum mining coming to an end, the market is about to be flooded with cheap GPUs even more than it already is. Prices of last gen CPUs (ones that are still newer than this one) are also quickly falling with new CPUs coming in a few months and recession on the horizon.

I'm in the business....NEW GPU's are not coming in a few months. We might get 1 or 2 new models by year end. Not even general availability. Large system integrators get them first. There will be almost no availability at retail by year end. I own a computer company and I also mine, profitability has actually increased the last month and ETH isn't the only mineable coin. Intel has actually announced price increase coming and Nvidia has stated that new MSRP are only temporary to rid a temporary glut of cards caused by supply chain slowdown. All the stuff that was stuck in transit etc. Funny thing is that there is no recession...even inflation is starting to come down. Gas has dropped about $1 a gallon here in Florida. We ae under $4 and in some places approaching $3.50. Housing prices are settling in, Anyway a deal is a deal right now....not based on what might be in 6 months. RIGHT NOW--TODAY..this is a great price for an upgradeable unit, that is BRAND NEW. By the way this is a perfectly good cpu to be paired with this GPU. 5.7% bottleneck on GPU..meaning it can handle a GPU upgrade using this CPU. It'll play Cyberpunk a medium 1080p settings at 104 fps. Apex Legends at high 152 fps, did you know the most common card on Steam is a 1060 and this outperforms it. Show me a better system---NEW--for less? Can you build this system with a legal copy of Windows for less?

Though I have heard rumors of Nvidia postponing release, you're misinformed if you think there is no recession. A recession doesn't happen overnight. The price of gas decreasing doesn't mean inflation is coming down. It's supply and demand. There's less demand because people are traveling less due to the coming/already started recession. During a recession the price of non-essential goods comes down and essential goods go up. Have you been to the grocery store lately? On top of that, the Fed is expected to increase interest rates to the highest in 40 years later this month because the economy isn't slowing down fast enough and inflation is increasing even more than previous months as a result.
I mine Ethereum on my gaming rigs as well, and when the merge happens, all the hash power will flood the other smaller coins and the mining difficulty for them will increase exponentially. GPU mining will become completely unprofitable unless you have a deal struck with the power company for heavily reduced price per kwh like BTC miners have.

I would buy Desktop over laptop for my kids in school every time. Desktop, the parts are all modular and you can fix or replace them. Then a few years down the line you can upgrade them piece meal. Laptop with the way my kids it would probably break in a few months.

When you use the Acryllic side panel, there's no airflow. You can break off the plastic RGB strip in the front using pliers to make an air channel and put a 120mm fan in the front*

* the B550 motherboard only has 2 fan headers so you will need a fan splitter
If it truly is acrylic why not just drill a few holes correctly placed near fans to allow for better cooling? Doesn't seem that hard, better acrylic than tempered glass. Up until about 5 years ago all computers had solid metal panels.

The default side panel is metal with holes in it for basic airflow. The acrylic one comes extra in the box, but that panel is only for show. For example, tech reviewers would record footage of the PC with the acrylic panel on to showcase the components and lighting but would probably have been under NDA to not benchmark it with the acrylic on, as the components probably would have overheated.

Thermals.
Upgradeability.
Better expandability.
Better keyboard and Monitor options.
Servicability.

​Maybe not "need" but the above are legit reasons peole prefer desktop.
Most people for most uses probably don't 'need' a desktop over a laptop.

??

You're claiming that they ship an acrylic panel with the system that is not meant for use?
I think thats quite unlkely. Where do you get that idea?
If this was the case then I'd expect to see documentation from Asus to explain that to users.

With few exceptions, I've wondered the opposite since 2015. Aside from people who travel for work or school and have necessary programs and files on their work or school laptop, I'm not sure why people still buy laptops. Different worlds I guess.

I guess I haven't seen many super ultrawides or triples hooked up to a laptop.

How hard to change to another case?

I have a cyberpower i5-2500k and i purchased a Strix G10CE with a ridicular low price from Amazon last week. I notice that the fan creates big noise when load is medium and the power supply is just 500w. Really want to switch to my old case and use my old 1000w gold PSU. Do you need to take the CPU off? Mine is a 11th intel with 3060.

Thanks!
