With all the technological advancement in the world within a few months, the gaming sector is expanding. More and more new games are being introduced to grasp the audience’s attention of every age group. My initial thought was that teenagers are the gaming-loving section of society, but I realized that mature adults also prefer gaming to de-stress with time. Every device slows down with usage, but still there can be numerous reasons why your old laptop or computer acts sluggish and hangs. One such error is the duplicate file error.

Many gaming competitions are being held globally with huge cash prizes, and to win such a competition, practice is needed. The best way to practice efficiently is by having an affordable gaming laptop that does not put many dents in your savings and allows you to retain your hobby or a career.
The requirements of the gaming laptops include a processor, good battery life, memory space, display size, refresh rate, ports, connectivity, and many more, which are available in different types of laptops from other companies. Here’s the list of 20 such gaming laptops under the price of $2000.
- Asus ROG Strix G15:
This 15.6-inch display laptop is a top contender for gaming laptops under $2000. The laptop’s battery life is the same as its other counterparts and why Asus became a household favorite. Battery life is up to 7 hours (although I am definitely in the 20 min screen-time category); 16 GB RAM and exceptional sound systems playing games on this laptop will surely give you the right experience. The downside of this laptop is the heating problem, which forces the user to rest between game sessions (which I think is not a bad thing to do), and the keyboard system that asks to be treated delicately.
