Which specs matter when renting a gaming laptop?
The most important component for gaming laptops is undoubtedly the graphics card, as it has the greatest influence on the computing power and overall quality of the gaming. There are two major graphics card manufacturers: Nvidia with its GeForce series and AMD with its Radeon models. As a general rule, you can tell how powerful a card is by its serial number—the higher the number, the more powerful it is. Let's take Nvidia as an example: The current generation of graphics cards is the 4000 series, the 3000 series is the previous generation. You can recognize exact performance levels in the generation by the end digits. For example, a GeForce 3050 is an entry-level model of the previous generation, while a GeForce 4090 is the ultimate of the current generation.
For an entry-level gaming laptop, a model at the GeForce RTX 4070 or 3070 level, for example, is recommended. As an all-rounder, those models can run any current game smoothly. However, sometimes you’ll have to do without 4K resolution and ray tracing technology. The most powerful laptops house a 4080 or even 4090 graphics card, which master highly detailed panoramas with active ray tracing easily. If you want to experience how the sun refracts in virtual skyscrapers and waterfalls in super-realistic environments, these gaming monsters are your best choice.

What else do you need to know?
- A decent gaming setup demands at least a Core i5 or Ryzen 5 processor. An i7/Ryzen 7 (or higher) is even more powerful.
- With refresh rates of 120 Hz, or even 144 Hz, you can achieve a smooth gaming experience on a laptop—even with fast-paced shooters.
- A laptop with at least 32GB of RAM ensures that loading times are short and games run without any stutters.
- At least 512GB of SSD hard disk storage gives your favorite titles a reasonably spacious home. But with 1 or 2TB of storage, you won't have to worry about pruning titles from your gaming library for a long time.
- Battery performance is less relevant for gaming laptops than for super-slim ultrabooks, for example. Current games are so demanding that even the top gaming laptop will need to be plugged in again after a few hours.
- The right size laptop depends on your needs. Whether it's a backpack-friendly 15-inch laptop or an 18-inch beast with a magnificent display—you decide based on how you’ll be playing.
Your rented gaming laptop can be even better with the right gaming accessories. Or if you want to delve even deeper, what about VR goggles for unforgettable virtual worlds.
