Which is better laptop computer or desktop computer?

Answer 1

This section applies to most common RAM machine-based computers.

In most cases, computer instructions are simple: add one number to another, move some data from one location to another, send a message to some external device, etc. These instructions are read from the computer's memory and are generally carried out (executed) in the order they were given. However, there are usually specialized instructions to tell the computer to jump ahead or backwards to some other place in the program and to carry on executing from there. These are called "jump" instructions (or branches). Furthermore, jump instructions may be made to happen conditionally so that different sequences of instructions may be used depending on the result of some previous calculation or some external event. Many computers directly support subroutines by providing a type of jump that "remembers" the location it jumped from and another instruction to return to the instruction following that jump instruction.

Program execution might be likened to reading a book. While a person will normally read each word and line in sequence, they may at times jump back to an earlier place in the text or skip sections that are not of interest. Similarly, a computer may sometimes go back and repeat the instructions in some section of the program over and over again until some internal condition is met. This is called the flow of control within the program and it is what allows the computer to perform tasks repeatedly without human intervention.

Comparatively, a person using a pocket calculator can perform a basic arithmetic operation such as adding two numbers with just a few button presses. But to add together all of the numbers from 1 to 1,000 would take thousands of button presses and a lot of time, with a near certainty of making a mistake. On the other hand, a computer may be programmed to do this with just a few simple instructions. For example:

mov No. 0, sum ; set sum to 0 mov No. 1, num ; set num to 1 loop: add num, sum ; add num to sum add No. 1, num ; add 1 to num cmp num, #1000 ; compare num to 1000 ble loop ; if num <= 1000, go back to 'loop' halt ; end of program. stop running

Answer 2

Well, as it is a gaming device and you are not travelling from one LAN party to another, you should get a desktop PC.

Advantages:

- it is cheaper (more power for a lower budget)

- it can be improved very easily (In case you want more ram or a better graphic card, just buy the stuff and exchange it with the old components)

- the screen is usually bigger and you can have any screen you want (you can surely connect your laptop to a screen, but what is the point of a laptop, if you do so?)

disadvantages:

- it can only be used in one place and is more difficult to move around

Answer 3

For gaming, both laptop computers and desktop computers will have a lot of variables specific to the computer that will determine whether or not it will be suitable for gaming. The best place to go would be to a local Best Buy store to ask an employee for one's specific needs for gaming. Generally, though, laptops are less expensive and are more convenient if one is going to be moving around a lot. Alternatively, desktop computers are easier to upgrade and have a longer battery life. Ultimately, it is up for the buyer to decide which suits their personal needs.

Answer 4

A laptop is better because you can take it wherever you go and it's wireless and you can attach a mouse to it so you can move the arrow thing faster .

Answer 5

Ummm....you need to go to the local community college and take some classes!

Answer 6

A laptop is better for portability, a desktop is better for processing power.

Answer 7

both laptop has garapics chip.GPU

the difference is the the gaming laptop have class 4,5 GPU

and other laptop have class 1,2,3 GPU

Answer 8

Laptop: Macbook Pro

Desktop: Mac Pro or iMac

Answer 9

It's a good idea! You can invest money by making a YouTube channel, downloading OBS Studio and figuring it out then making videos then publishing then unless you like Twitch ect.
