    Totally agree with Adrian, but there is one important thing that is often times overlooked. That is bus speed. The bus speed is determined by the main board or motherboard for the older generation 😜. This determines the fastest speed at which GPU(aka type of expansion ports), RAM(aka mega/giga-hertz or MT/s or transfer rate), and CPU(aka FSB or front side bus) can communicate with each other. Laptops have slower bus speeds to reduce heat. This is why an Intel 9, 12 core 2.4mhz on a laptop is slower than a desktop. They will have different FSB.
