Hello, im going to buy a laptop. Im going to university to study IT (information technology) so i will be using it for programming and also for gaming. I play games like battlefield, dark souls etc, so i will need something strong and something that will last some years. I dont like small laptops so i think i will need something like 16-17'' +. Also i need some opinions about fan stands or anything thats gonna help with performance. Thanks.

A desktop would beat the laptop in performance... if you're going to stay at the university, I'd recommend a desktop.

My brother took a Razer Blade off to college, he's an engineering major so he needs it to run CAD and games like Diablo 3 and Dark Souls 2 and it runs really well. I'd recommend that.

You need a laptop to bring to classes though.

Oh, I forgot about that. What if the university uses old-style textbooks?

I dunno man. Colleges are actually pretty up to date with using technology, especially if OP is doing something like engineering of computer science or something similar.

I still love the Razer Blade. Not only for the reasons above, but also because it's super portable and compact.

It's only 200 dollars more and it's well worth it.
