Help me choose a laptop

Hullo amigos, need your esteemed wisdom to help me buy a laptop T-T
Here is what I am thinking

  • I need this device for coding and gaming. Preferred GPU 5060, can accept 5050 if the tradeoff is worth it.
  • I am willing to stretch to 1,40,000 INR, on EMI i.e.
  • My previous laptop experience was a shit show, it started having keyboard and trackpad glitches and really left a bad taste behind.
  • I expect this laptop to atleast last me 3 years.

I have narrowed down my research to the following laptops.

  • HP Omen | B0GXBP9WQL | ₹140,990 - For this, I am worried about the processor. I am afraid if the HX processor will fry the laptop and reduce the optimal lifesapan of this device. Other reservation would be the price point, compared to the other two, I am paying more, I also intend to buy other accessories eventually like keyboard, mouse, monitor, cooling pad. Now I am thinking if the edge that I am getting in performance is worth the financial strain I will have to shoulder in future.
  •  HP HyperX OMEN 15 | B0GSZW682H | ₹119,990 - This one trades display and price for processor and GPU. If HX processors really pose a hazard, then this device actually makes sense. I get a laptop with a good screen which is plus for portability even if I buy a monitor. I am trying to weigh if the processor and GPU downgrade actually makes sense, if it will actually show a visible decline in experience. Otherwise this laptop is a strong contender for me now atm.
  • HP Smartchoice Victus 15 | B0FDKPZHB7 | ₹92,990 - This laptop is the cheapest amongst the three - bada bing bada boom, no two way about it. To me this laptop is the lowest I can go and I need someone to tell me if this compromise makes sense. I can freely invest in other accessories if I get this one. But for what? If the decline in experience is too much then I would actually rather spend some more money and get a better performant device. But I can't seem to make the comparison.

What do you think, which one makes sense? Am I missing out on any other device? Feel free to recommend other devices if they are better than what I comparing for now. Also any other tip is much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I am right now in a place where I do not know what to read, which is not to say that I have read a lot, it's just that I am having difficulty moving in any direction at all.

Looking at recommendations from people online made me wonder how other people find the books they want to read.

Share how you research your books, much appreciated! ^•^
