I find high end laptops useless when it comes to gaming. Having a good one isn't bad, they can be useful for things like graphic design and office work. If you are a gamer looking for quality, that's just not something that you can compare to a desktop.

A few opinions on gaming laptops:
Oh your laptop screen cracked? Go buy a screen replacement for over a quarter the price you paid for the laptop.
Looking for replacement speakers because you blew them by shooting guns (which just happened to me two days ago so this is a perfect example)? Well good luck finding them (I did happen to find some but they are $60 dollars and I can't find them anywhere else).
Need to upgrade any components? Let's try to find low prices together! It's not always easy.
Absolutely zero experience with the guts of a laptop? Do not try to DIY. Go pay hundreds on a technician.
Can't access certain keys quick enough because the keyboard layout sucks? Go buy a USB keyboard. When you're looking dumb because you have two keyboards, you chose the laptop.
Like multi-screening? Well the whole point of a laptop is portability, so stop there.
Your laptop is outdated now? Shit out of luck, unlike desktops which are easy to update and upgrade.
Any other reason? Fuck your laptop. Get a desktop.
