Are gaming laptops any good or just a meme?

Are gaming laptops any good or just a meme?
I see them around more often nowadays, I thought cooling was already a big issue for these, now they make them with 1080gtx.

If the gpu or any other integrated deviced broke, how would you replace it? since these models have no spare parts and aren't modular.

this pretty much covers it. you should always have a desktop as your primary unless you move constantly for work etc. also

Actually I move a lot and battery life isn't a problem for me because I'm not autistic enough to use my gaming rig in places other than my own so I'll always have it plugged.
I can spend $2000+ on them.

I thought of getting an asus ROG.

well, if youre a person out of the house and uses a laptop much more than a desktop and you game, then yes its good for you.

give reasons why you think its better than just having an mitx/atx build that you can easily move and will have far better performance, noise, image and workspace. I've had one in the past and despite constantly moving place and country I still regret it

Also, my worries aren't that I can't upgrade them I know what I get can't be changed.
But what worries me are repairs, it needed to replace a part are all parts integrated to the mobo or is the gpu for instance made specifically for this model and cannot be bought as spare?
