I feel like I see a fair amount of gaming laptops in the US but a majority of people seem to still game on desktop. I guess what I am looking for is a ratio of one versus the other otherwise a country like China might dominate on numbers alone.

When looking for searching online for this I was mostly coming across pros and cons lists. This isn’t what I am after.

      Right??
      I only game on laptop because I can’t justify spending the money on a homebuilt rig at the moment.

        I can justify spending money on a home built rig any day of the year. Whether I can afford it, is a different story T_T

      I meant that in the way of mobile gaming become more feasible and widespread. I’d say gaming on desktop is the traditional experience wouldn’t you?

        Oh, I see.

        Yes, I agree. I am getting the impression you are sensing/expecting a shift away from desktops due to the widespread mobile gaming you mentioned. Maybe I am too old fashioned and conservative in that sense but for me gaming should ideally be done on a desktop. Furthermore, I believe that gaming is best experienced and most desirable on a desktop.
