So look, I know nothing about tech specs, just not my thing.  But I have been playing with emulation, mostly Gamecube/N64 games.  I have two options.  A laptop with i7, 16 gb ram and iris xe.  The second option is a desktop i5, 8 gb ram with a 1050 TI.  I've tried to understand which is better for gaming, which again is emulation, but I don't get what anything means.  So as just a quick question, which is better?  Not looking for details, just a clean simple answer.  Thank you in advance.  

I do prefer to use the desktop, older computer the family doesn't need.  So if I mess something up, nobody cares.  

The laptop sounds like it has an onboard intel graphics card which will be shit in comparison to the 1050TI.

I would honestly use the desktop.
