2026 Zephyrus G16 5070ti or 5080?

Already decided on Zephyrus because I travel constantly for my use case and will use it for work tasks as well. I do want to be able to run high spec games like crimson desert, RDR2, Hell Let Loose Vietnam, Overwatch. Is there a huge difference between 5070ti vs 5080 especially when it comes to cooling? I see many saying to get 5070ti because the laptop doesn't do well cooling 5080 or 5090 but I am also wondering if the 2026 model is better with cooling than the 2025 since most reviews seem to be based off the old model. Lastly, if I do get the 5070ti I am considering just getting the G14 due to its smaller size as long as it has the same performance as the 16 (i know he screen is slightly less nits but idc too much about that). Thank you all!

Which handheld should I buy? Cost not a factor

Hey all, I’m trying to decide which handheld to get because I travel constantly for work now and want something to use on planes and hotels. I was originally wanting the steam deck but after some research I understand that it’s hardware is more outdated compared to competitors. Right now the top options I see are the MSI, Ally X, and the Legion. I like the touchpads on the steam deck because I do play some older titles, but it’s not necessarily a must because I play mostly AAA shooters and RPGs so I need the high performance and graphics.

Looking for some advice on which is better of the high end models from each flagship as well as differences in the OS. I like the ease of the SteamOS and everything I own is through steam, but I’ve seen people saying certain games don’t run well with steamOS handhelds due to lack of controller support. Cost is not a factor. Any advice is appreciated!
