Need help deciding which laptop to buy Posted: 28 Nov 2017 11:22 AM PST Hi! I've been thinking about buying a laptop for a while and I've come to 2 laptops that were worth buying in my country. The Asus Rog Strix GL702VM ( https://www.asus.com/us/Laptops/ROG-GL702VM/ ) and the Clevo P700-G ( http://www.inphtech.pt/computadores/gaming-17/ ). [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Nov 2017 10:14 AM PST Not looking for a heavy gaming laptop, but might play The Sims. Seeking one for writing and saving lots of documents and pictures. I have a HP Pavilion at the moment and love it but it's getting old and screen keeps going blue and orange and I'm told the video card might crap out soon, so I could always hook this computer up to a monitor if that happens but I'd rather just get a new laptop in the next few months so I have mobility. Do you have recommendations about fast, good, inexpensive (under $500, if possible) laptops? Brands, stores, online? I'm thinking Amazon but wonder what you all think. Thanks in advance!

Posted: 28 Nov 2017 09:58 AM PST Is there a big differece between the hp spectre 13 2016 version and 2017 version? I will probably get one for my programmimg classes. What are your thoughts and ratings on it? Is it a buy? I am okay with 6 hours of battery. [link] [comments] | ||
Should I buy a lenovo u310 touch or an acer aspire v5 Posted: 28 Nov 2017 01:29 PM PST found both on craigslist for the same price, conflicted as they both have near exactly the same specs, same i5, same amount of ram, etc. Hoping people who have used either of these laptops have input [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 28 Nov 2017 11:52 AM PST Is it normal for laptops to make buzzing and low high pitch noises? I do believe it is not the fan that is making the noise. Any help is greatly appreciated! [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Nov 2017 11:35 AM PST I recently got an hp omen ax250wm, and I want to add a ssd. I do not need a big size, 60gb should be sufficient. From what I have heard, the laptop uses m.2 format. I would like a cheap ssd, that works with the laptop. [link] [comments] | ||

M.2 NVMe storage & USB C charging for HP Envy x360 Posted: 28 Nov 2017 10:11 AM PST I have purchased an Envy x360, model 1ZA23AV_1, and it's on its way. I'm intrigued by things I've read about NVMe, with its extremely fast read/write times compared to SATA SSDs. I'm going to move my old 2.5" SSD drive into this computer (got the "cheap" 1TB HDD option), and was considering buying a Samsung 960 EVO NVMe stick. I know M.2 can connect via SATA or PCIe ,or both depending on computer configuration. I think this laptop supports PCIe, but is there any sure way to discern? Also, I can't find the page I had read originally, but I saw that NVMe storage devices that use PCIe need 4 "lanes" to operate at their fastest speed, and that other devices can potentially use some of the lanes, slowing down the max speed available. Do you all know if I'd have less than 4 lanes left over in the machine linked at the top? Finally, how noticeable of a performance different might I expect over a middle-of-the-road SATA SSD? For a charger on the go, I was thinking of tossing this charger and this cable (Benson approved!) into my backpack. I can't find specs online for the Envy x360 - would the 46W USB C adapter be compatible and sufficient? [link] [comments] | ||
Help. Just bought Dell Inspiron 15 5000, AMD FX 9830P with RX 560. Is this a good purchase? Posted: 28 Nov 2017 05:58 AM PST I just purchased the following laptop: Dell Inspiron 15 5000
For $788.75 CAD with $75 CAD from ebates, so for around $714 CAD (around $557 USD). *CAD = Canadian Dollars Is this a good purchase for the price? Or should I switch to something with a better CPU? I read from different places that FX 9830P can bottleneck the performance of RX 560. I mainly play FFXIV, WoW and Diablo 3. I am also planning to use this laptop for coding as well (potentially dual-booting ubuntu). Thanks for your help, fellas! [link] [comments] | ||
ASUS ROG Strix GL503 w/ GTX 1070 in the UK? Posted: 28 Nov 2017 09:39 AM PST I'm trying to find an ASUS GL503 with a GTX 1070 in the UK, however I can only find GTX 1050 & 1060 versions. Can anyone help out? Thank you. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Nov 2017 07:52 AM PST So my school says I need a Chromebook and they give me 150 for it (I am willing to pay 100€ more) preferably an Acer. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Nov 2017 07:33 AM PST I'm buying a new laptop for general use (I don't play many games and don't need a huge amount of storage space) and my main aim is to get it running as fast as possible for every day tasks (i.e. lots of chrome browsing, editing word docs, media player). I'm still getting my head around the different specs involved, so I'm kind of unsure of which will make the biggest difference to having a fast, reliable laptop. I've narrowed it down to the following three options (in order of cost), and I'd really appreciate any advice! Do you think I'll notice a significant difference between them for the kind of usage I described? option 1: Acer Aspire e5 Intel Core i3-7100U 2.4 GHz (Dual-core), 4GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB 5400rpm hard drive. option 2: Acer Aspite e5 + upgrades Either adding another 4GB of RAM, or adding 120GB SSD. (Any thoughts on which would do more to improve performance are very welcome! As are any tips on things I need to consider when buying these upgrades.) option 3: Acer Swift 3 Intel Core i5-7200U 2.7 GHz, 4GB DDR4 RAM, 256GB SSD. [edit] option 4: Anything else you might want to recommend at a similar budget [link] [comments] | ||
Intel core processor: 6th generation i3 vs 7th generation i5 Posted: 28 Nov 2017 06:51 AM PST The laptop I'm interested in buying has two versions, both are the same, but one has a 6th generation i3 processor (i3 6006U) and the other has a 7th generation i5 processor (i5-7200U). The one with the i5 is £50 more expensive Which should I buy? I'll be using the laptop for standard stuff, browsing web, watching tv shows/films, word, excel, a bit of programming on java/python. Might play the occasional counter strike game. Very rare these days though. Could have a dozen tabs opened at the same time while watching a film or doing spreadsheets. would I notice any difference in performance between the two processors? Would the i5 use more energy and cause the fan to operate more even while idling/small tasks? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Nov 2017 06:32 AM PST Hey, I live in Europe, Estonia and I am looking for a high-endish laptop for personal use for gaming and game development with Unreal Engine. After long and painful hours of research I have concluded my search with 2 laptops: MSI GS63VR 7RG Stealth Pro 1070 (~2000 euros) Gigabyte Aero 15x (~2400 euros) I do not need the laptop tomorrow but I also would not like to wait half a year for Gigabyte to restock their laptops here in Europe. The MSI laptop is available from a local reseller. Should I buy the MSI now or wait and buy the more expensive (and better) Gigabyte Aero15x? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Nov 2017 06:07 AM PST Hi guys! So I'm quite clueless when it comes to laptops. A friend of mine recommended a Chromebook as a possible alternative to a laptop but I don't know jack about either so I would love some feedback/input. That being said, I'm looking to buy either one. My needs would be quite simple: I'm a Dungeon Master in a Dungeons and Dragons group, and want an option that relieves me of having to lug around 5-7 books each week which is where a laptop/Chromebook can help me out! I'm not sure what is needed but I'm looking for an option that has: At least 4GB of ram, at least 32GB of internal storage, decently fast processor (here's where I'm not sure; at least 1.5GHz?), I don't think I want less than a 14" screen, 1920 x 1080 resolution would be ideal. Bottom line: this purchase would be used mainly for browsing through multiple PDFs at a time and YouTube videos/web browsing, so something that won't lag or stutter is needed. Thanks in advance for any help/advice! [link] [comments] | ||

Display quality differences? HP Spectre x360 15" Early & Late 2017 models Posted: 27 Nov 2017 09:58 PM PST Hey r/laptops, I need your help! I'm currently sitting with two nearly identical 15" HP Spectre x360s in front of me. One is my original, the early 2017 model that I got in spring. The other is the new model that arrived today. I love this laptop so much but I felt like I really needed the boost that came with the move to the 150MX and 8th gen i7 -- basically the only notable differences in models. I planned on selling the old one and eating the difference as an upgrade cost. But... tl;dr ahead of time -- Is my new laptop defective, am I experiencing human error, or did HP lower the quality of their display in between models? My early 2017 model has this crisp, bright screen with really accurate white balance. It's gorgeous and f.lux warms the palette perfectly at night without compromising color integrity. So, since the late 2017 model is virtually identical, I suspected nothing less out of it as well. However, as I was getting everything set up and transferred over, I noticed that the new screen was a little too red. When I had f.lux on it was a dull pink instead of a soft yellow. I fiddled with the settings all over the place: using the color calibration tool, in the Intel settings, etc. With f.lux on both, with f.lux off. No matter what, I couldn't quite get the white balance right. Then I noticed things weren't quite as crisp and legible (an almost imperceptible amount). Then I noticed it straight up isn't as bright and doesn't seem to have as much of a range between bright and dim. Then I noticed the colors in my old display seem to be slightly richer with a wider visible range (and not in an over-saturated way). I really wanted the extra power, but I'm not sure it's worth the image quality sacrifice if I'm also paying a couple hundred for the pleasure. Is it truly just a worse display? Despite trying to restore everything to their defaults, am I forgetting about some settings somewhere? Is there a panel lottery in laptops like there is in TVs sometimes? Any input is appreciated!
