Are gaming laptops good for programming?

Gaming laptops contain powerful hardware and can therefore be used by programmers. However, not all programmers need that kind of power. If you’re doing Machine Learning, AI dev, or Blockchain dev, then you would need a lot of memory (RAM), decent processing power, and multi threaded rendering capability. A gaming laptop will work well for such a requirement. However, you must also note that gaming laptops have loud design and aesthetics with plenty of colorful LEDs, a huge fan, etc. That may not really work well in a professional environment. It will work for students who are learning programming languages and also love playing video games.

Also Game developers can go for gaming laptops to test their code. I would recommend going for the HP OMEN Laptop 16-c0136AX. It’s powered by an AMD Ryzen 5, 8 GB RAM, and NVIDIA® GeForce GTX™ 1650 (4GB GDDR6). It will be a great laptop for playing games, doing programming, developing websites, and learning data science. With an RGB backlit keyboard, 9+ hour-long battery and free HP Vector gaming mouse you can enjoy long term working sessions. It will cost you around Rs. 78,000 on HP shopping site where you can get 5% cashback (up to ₹2500) on SBI Cards.
