So I am planning to buy a laptop, but I am not sure if I buy gaming laptop or a normal one. The games I usually play are cs, overwatch and minecraft, vut that could change if time. It would be good too if the laptop could survive the 5 years I will be studying

    Go for a non-gaming laptop with a low-end GPU or a strong integrated GPU. The following are pretty good:

    1. 16-inch, pretty cheap: HP Pavilion Plus 16t-ab000 (make sure to pick the i3-13500H paired with the RTX 3050) for:
      1. $650 with 512GB or
      2. $760 with 1TB
    2. 16-inch, more expensive but also powerful: Dell Inspiron 16 Plus 7630 for:
      1. $1000 with a 3050, 16GB RAM, and 1TB
      2. $1100 with a 4060 (way better value), 16GB, and 1TB
      3. $1400 with a 4060, 32GB, and 2TB
    3. 14-inch, lightweight and enough for the games you want, but pretty weak: HP Pavilion Plus 14z-ey000 (make sure to pick the 7840U option, the 7540U is a bit weak) for:
      1. $740 with 512GB
      2. $870 with 1TB
