Okay theres a lot of discussion regarding the thunderbolt 3 port. I need ur guys opinion with it. Does it really a necessity when buying a laptop or its just something thats overhype.
I really need to know this cause im looking to buy a gaming laptop and its giving me a headache

I don't see it as a must have when the main criterion for a gaming laptop is CPU and GPU performance (including the screen quality) ... and reliability.

What about for a super-duper eGPU that wouldn't fit in a laptop?
