I review gaming PCs for a living, and I'd never buy the RTX 5090 — here's why

I've built gaming PCs for 25 years, and here's what I'd buy instead of an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090.

We've tested the plucky RTX 5050 in the Asus TUF Gaming A16 2025... it's pretty good, actually

But the laptop remains big, hot, and just a little too expensive.
