Looking to buy a new gaming laptop, which brands are reliable for long term use? My budget is around a 1000USD equivalent (I'm not in US) . Reliability of not having damages and repairs in foremost for me at this budget.

which brands are preferred, and avoided?

looks like their "acceptable performance" is 4K 120FPS ultra high ray tracing..

My current potato laptop can only play 15 yr old games at 720p, and I still get by.

Absolutely agree. The amount of posts in the PC gaming related communities are always about how ~only~ getting 120fps is unacceptable on their single player farming sim. Gamers—especially PC gamers—are, in my experience, completely deranged. Haven’t read the rest of the thread but I hope you got some sound advice as to what laptop to investigate.
