HP VS ASUS?

Your answer to that will be to realize the gaming will soon become up to 4K resolution. You can watch youtube in 2K now on some recordings.
Watch some of civilization 6 done in 2k on youtube. Some areas when they go fast almost smear.
My new desktop takes the problem out. Although a two year old computer laptop now sits lonely in a drawer, I consider the upgrade ability worthy as even tech of streaming gets better.
I worked for HP and now use their desk computer.
I do many things beyond gaming, including seeing the clouds of the planet earth all the way to the bottom of the ocean currents. Many and most of present laptops are already obsolete. My 2 terabyte, is going to be small in a few years.
Information grows so fast and unless your only idea is too no other work than play the game you have then simply ask the store clerk to plug in your game choice.
Be certain your computer can take the upgrades or have a nest for used laptops because today will the past in two years.
Personal opinion of course.
