Check the battery life compared to competing non-gaming laptops. Most gaming laptops will have a shorter battery life due to the higher power demands of the CPU, display and GPU. If you travel with your laptop and work off battery a lot, this could be an important consideration.

They also tend to have fans that stay on all the time, at least to some degree. If noise bothers you, this is another reason to research non-gaming options (do your homework, because many of them are loud under load too).
