I'm not a gamer but the main differences are, the UK layout has:
- an AltGr key is added to the right of the space bar
- the # symbol is replaced by the £ symbol and a 102nd key is added next to the Enter key to accommodate the displaced #
- @ and ” are swapped
- the ~ is moved to the # key, and is replaced by a ¬ symbol on the backquote (`) key
- the \\ key is moved to the left of the Z key
- the Enter key spans two rows, and is narrower to accommodate the # key
- the | and \\ key is often placed next to the space bar

Some of the \"Build your own\" ones allow you to choose a US keyboard - e.g. dell.com/en-…top . I'd guess it's similar with Lenovo and HP. Apple let's you choose US keyboard for all laptops they sell on their site.
I've seen some Asus laptops with US layout sold in UK too. Or have a look on eBay - a lot of sellers have laptops on sale imported from the US.
If you find a great deal on a laptop with UK keyboard you can order a US keyboard from the likes of AliExpress and replace it. Or just use an external keyboard - you can order one from keyboardco.com/ ."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51316997","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"CMSeddon"},"datePublished":"2023-10-31T11:34:49.000Z","text":"Don't think you'll find a laptop here with a US keyboard unless it's a company who imports them. This seems unlikely unless it's a make/ model not produced in the UK. You could just change the keyboard settings in the laptop to use the us layout. I have a US laptop but set the keyboard settings to UK."}],"commentCount":7,"interactionStatistic":7,"articleSection":"Ask"}
