Laptop Longevity

Bought a new laptop with my own money for the first time at 28 for 1.4, and that too, an insane gaming laptop. Didn't think I could ever bring myself to this point in life to make such huge purchases. Seeing a post before mine inspired me to put this post up. Gonna be doing EMIs for the next 12 months lol sigh.

I got the HP Omen ap0183ax. I want to understand how to maximise the laptop's life. I've been watching stuff on YT and reading things online but everywhere the thoughts and opinions are super conflicting. What I understand so far is to always have it plugged in while gaming is all. Some people say laptops are never supposed to be turned off some people say that that's okay. Idk what to believe and follow. I know that the best case will be that this laptop will start to deteriorate after 4-5 years which is when I'll have to put money into upgrades and maintenance.

What all can I do to get the best out of this laptop while also giving it the best life span?
