My 12 year old has gaming laptop on his Christmas list this year and I’m trying to understand better.
he normally just plays Minecraft and Roblox on his laptop now. His computer has 4GB RAM and isn’t that old. He was complaining about lagging so I did a few things to help that (shut down some things that launch on start up) and I think that helped.
My question is, is an actual gaming laptop (more ram, separate cooling) necessary for Minecraft and Roblox which seem pretty basic.
Some of his buddies are talking about thei gaming laptops, but not really sure they’re using it correctly or my son is understanding (eg, one kid just has an old laptop that he only uses for games that he calls his “gaming laptop”). I asked him to find out more but couldn’t get a straight answer.
