$400, US
This current one has a good integrated GPU, I mean it's just an office laptop on steroids so I'm looking for something similar, this has an oldie Radeon HD 8690M, I like playing games
I doubt any laptop is heavier than this one so no.
Windows
at least 14 inches, which is what this Dell has
Gaming and revit.
Fortnite at least, this E6440 that I wanted to sell some time ago but couldn't (REFERENCE ) can play it on low 50-60 fps so at least a little better than that would be fine by me
NONE
Maybe one that has a good software in it because I find it such bs that the windows liscence in every laptop is one time use and cannot format the thing back to factory settings. I was recommended Acer - Aspire E 15 but not sure if I can find it in a retail store here, reason why it must be in a store is I have no time left to wait days for a package [link] [comments] |
Help with an everyday reliable laptop please! Posted: 23 Apr 2018 02:01 AM PDT
Have been looking at the Razer Blade Stealth, Dell XPS 13 9360, HP Spectre X360 and a he Macbook Pro 13. When I think I have one decided, I read reviews about poor QC and over-heating etc. Given that I'm in the UK, I need something that will be reliable from day 1. Thanks [link] [comments] |

Posted: 22 Apr 2018 03:38 PM PDT Basic info for each laptop: 2017- i7-7700HQ, GeForce 1050 w/ 4GB dedicated RAM, 16GB RAM, 512gb PCle SSD, FHD Screen non-touch, $1400 2018 - i7-8750H, GeForce 1050Ti w/ 4GB, everything else the same, $1750 -Budget, no more than $1750. I can go beyond that, but it'd have to be an incredibly perfect laptop. -Country: US -No 2 in 1, and I would good battery life (for I am in college) -Weight, important factor: no more than 4 pounds. -OS, windows and maybe an added on linux -Uses: I would like the capability to do video editing on this. Nothing terribly fancy, though, I probably won't shoot anything above 1080p. Any video I would make would probably have a lot of added in 2D graphics and pre-installed effects -- just the stuff you can do in Premiere pro. I dont think I would touch after effects. And I would probably mainly use premiere pro. I also hope to do some light gaming with it. Games I would play would be esport stuff like Rocket League, and the occasional AAA game or huge RPG like GTA V. I don't care too much about fps, as long as its above whatever the standard is (which I think is 60? I could probably do 30, though). So basically I am trying to find a laptop that will serve me well for the next 4-6 years. I am a computer science major in my second year of college. I have been looking around for laptops A LOT recently. What I am looking for is something that can do video editing and can do a decent bit of gaming, but also isn't terribly expensive, doesn't have a shitty screen, and has a long battery life. After looking around I pretty much decided the XPS 15 would be the best for me. (Although if you have any outside recommendations I would consider them.) I was pretty set on the XPS 2017, especially at the price it's at right now, then I discovered the new XPS for 2018. Should I get that instead? I'm basically mainly concerned with the 1050 (2017) vs. the 1050Ti (2018). (Both models have 4gb of dedicated RAM, btw). Gaming is not my priority for this laptop, but I definitely want to be able to do at least some gaming with it. If I had to run a AAA game at a lower setting, that'd be fine with me. I don't care about squeezing out every possible FPS and pixel. But I still want a decent experience. Overall, gaming is not my priority, but I want to be able to do some of it if I'm getting a laptop this expensive. I am not worried about the 7th gen vs. the 8th gen intel processor. The 7th gen is absolutely perfect for what I need. So my primary question is: is the extra $350 worth getting the 1050Ti and added benefits of the 8th gen? I know the Ti is only marginally better, but as I understand it it sounds like the baseline specs for most big games today lies somewhere between the 1050 and the 1050Ti, if that makes sense. Although the Ti is only slightly better, it's in a different region of gaming, it seems. Perhaps I am wrong about this. I hope this laptop lasts me a while as well. So the longevity of the 1050Ti vs. the 1050 is also a factor. Please let me know if you need any additional info!! Thanks. [link] [comments] |

Work + Portable Gaming Laptop Suggestion for US Posted: 23 Apr 2018 12:40 AM PDT I'm looking for a decent thin and light work laptop that can give me 10+ hrs of battery life with enough gaming performance to play most games at 1080p medium to high. Looking for good build quality. Budget is up to $1600-1700. Not looking for a 2-in-1, though I don't mind if one meets my requirements. Definitely not looking for a 4K screen. The new XPS 15 with a 1050 Ti looks great, but the webcam is putting me off since I'll be using it for work video calls. Also, the 97whr battery is only available with 4K display, which I do not want. Anyone have any other suggestions? [link] [comments] |

He's mid 50's, and W10 is new, is this relevant? Yes because he's not a tech person. So don't try to find fancy things like fingerprint or something techy. He will 70% won't use it or struggle to learn and use it often. He is in a company that builds turbines, so Mastercam is his main program. He needs a laptop that follows the program's requirements + not take 10 minutes to boot/load. Seriously, his old laptop took 10 minutes to load and 10 minutes to load a project in mastercam. bigger screen is nice so he won't be squinting at the screen. [link] [comments] |

Asus Gaming GL702ZC AMD Ryzen 5 1600 for my old PC Posted: 22 Apr 2018 03:00 PM PDT So, I'm trying to do something, I'll be moving out soon to go to university and I cannot bring my PC with me, so I need a decent laptop that can actually run some good games. It's kinda complicated but is it worth selling my old PC for a laptop like this? My PC has: i5 6600 3.3 GHz, 16 GB 2133MHz, GTX 1060 STRIX, WD HDD 1TB 7200 rpm, SSD Hyper X Savage 250 GB, 550 Corsair PW, CM CPU Cooler, Zalman Z11 Neo and MSI motherboard. I bought it in September 2016 for 1000 euros and the actual laptop is on sale for 1000 euros. Is it worth selling my PC for 750 euros? The CPU is 2 generations old, but the GPU prices went uppppp, just like ram prices. I don't really know what to do. Someone help me? [link] [comments] |

How does this Dell Inspiron 13 i7370 compare to a zenbook? Posted: 22 Apr 2018 09:16 PM PDT This Inspiron from the Microsoft Canada store basically has everything I'm looking for outside of being a thinkpad (which I won't get in these specs for under $1k Cdn) an anti-glare/matte screen. Just wondering how it'd compare though to an ultrabook like a zenbook that's also 8 GB ram/256 SSD and a 7th gen or newer i5 with a 1080p screen. This is for basic use as a student so portability/reliability is important, might have to install a VM for Linux. [link] [comments] |

Replacement Laptop for My Girlfriend (in college) USA Price: Unknown Posted: 22 Apr 2018 07:46 PM PDT Hi reddit! I've posted a few times for myself but this time it's for somebody else. My girlfriend's crappy lenovo has shit the bed and its time for her to get an upgrade, especially since she's in the engineering school at her university. Hard part is that I can't get a max price point out of her besides "not too expensive," so if any of you guys can help me out, I'd be grateful. Total budget and country of purchase: USA and unknown budged really. Probably around $500-600 as she doesn't want to keep buying laptops.
I've been looking at the Acer E15 models and it seems like the one with just integrated graphics or even the one with the MX150 might be just what she needs, but I'd like to get the opinion of others too. If she didn't need to use CAD I'd suggest a nicer chromebook, but I don't think that's really what shes looking for. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 22 Apr 2018 07:03 PM PDT You can find my original post with the requirements here (ignore the exact budget mentioned there, just keep in mind I don't wanna spend more than I have to and don't wanna waste my money) It looks like Eurocom's "Mobile Supercomputers" line is very close to meeting the requirements in my initial post, what do you guys think? Should I continue searching other brands, or these would be the best match I will be able to find? If I stick with them, which base model and which parts would you recomnend? And should I be looking for any accessories they don't offer there? Do cooling stands help to increase the life of a laptop significantly or just help with performance? Any you would recommend? ps: I'm in Portugal [link] [comments] |
