| Did I make the right choice? (HP Spectre) Posted: 20 Apr 2018 08:01 AM PDT I recently purchased an HP Spectre from Best Buy. This model to be exact https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-spectre-x360-2-in-1-15-6-4k-ultra-hd-touch-screen-laptop-intel-core-i7-16gb-memory-512gb-solid-state-drive-dark-ash-silver/6082118.p?skuId=6082118 It was ~1400 with tax. I was wondering if there is something better for this price range. I would need it for word processing, light gaming (Civ, Fortnite, Battlefield) I'm a student so the battery life was a feature that attracted me. But I'm just wondering if there's a more bang for my buck laptop out there. I have 15 days to return this laptop if I'm not in love with it or if there's something better out there. Thanks!

| Looking for great laptops for graphic design/grad school/work Posted: 20 Apr 2018 12:19 PM PDT Hi there! I'm pursuing my MA and I also happen to be working in digital marketing. My job requires me to use Adobe Photoshop a lot, and I'm planning to learn Illustrator. I also used to play LOTRO (The Lord of the Rings Online) and other games as well. Aside from these, I also use Audacity to produce and render tracks for songs for my band. So as you can see, I use my PC quite a lot. I bought my laptop 2 years ago and I find that it's been failing me now. It's a Dell Inspiron 14. Unfortunately, I had to use web versions of Slack, Viber, Skype, (for work) and even Spotify. Any good recommendations? There's a gadget sale coming up from the 26th to the 28th. If I can't find these laptops, what should I be looking for in a laptop as well? Thank you and have a great weekend! Edited: My budget is roughly around $700-800! [link] [comments]  | ||

| Acer Spin 7- best fanless laptop for this screen size? Posted: 20 Apr 2018 02:18 PM PDT Thinking of buying this: https://www.amazon.com/Acer-LPDDR3-Windows-Convertible-SP714-51-M4YD/dp/B01LWZ7JNW I was looking for a fanless laptop, but there don't seem to be many in the screen size I wanted (at least 14"). After doing some research, this looks like the best option right now. Is there any other laptop I'm missing? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Fresh Installing Windows on New Dell Laptop Posted: 20 Apr 2018 01:57 PM PDT Hello, I will soon be purchasing a dell xps 13. When I get the laptop I plan on fresh installing windows. After fresh installing windows I plan to reinstall the drivers. Could someone please help me figure out which of these drivers are important and which (if any), are uneccessary or bloatware? Thank You. Link to drivers download: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/xps-13-9370-laptop/drivers [link] [comments]  | ||

| Looking for laptop for basic use as well as compatibility with Photoshop Posted: 20 Apr 2018 01:35 PM PDT I'm very new and unfamiliar to the computer world, so I need a little help. Looking for a laptop that can comfortably run PS. Though I'm pretty low on funds, I'm trying to spend max $500 if possible. Right now I'm looking at the Lenovo IdeaPad 320. Based on my research, it seems to have all the basic requirements, but again, I'm fairly ill-informed when it comes to computers. Would this be a fair choice? If not, can anyone suggest something near my price range that can get the job done? [link] [comments]  | ||
| XPS 15 2in1 vs laptop and release date Posted: 20 Apr 2018 02:54 AM PDT Hi all, I'm currently debating between the new XPS 15 and Aero 15x. However I just wanted some clarity on XPS 15 release date. Originally I read 16th April... But it's still not available. Spoke to Dell customer service and they said they can't provide me a date. Do we know when it's coming out? Second question is what are the main differences between the 2in1 and the standard. Are all the specs the same apart from you can upgrade the 2in1? Finally my main usages are CAD, a lot of intensive multitasking and complex spreadsheet computations required the laptop to be on for long periods of time. As well as the usual Web surfing, 4k video streaming etc. Regarding gaming, I don't game very often, but I'd like to have the option but I mainly game on my ps4. Is it worth going for the aero just for this option due to it having a 1060/70 as opposed to 1050i? Edit: I also wanted to know if the i9 option on the xps would be a worthwhile upgrade?

| Posted: 20 Apr 2018 12:45 PM PDT I am looking for laptop with specs from title + this also being important: - fast SSD - quiet - good cooling - good keyboard There aren't many options yet.. I know only of alienware, msi, schenker. MSI is most expensive, for schenker I'm worried it will be loud and alienware (17 R5) seems like the best pick for ~2300€. I can't order it in my country but I could to german adress. I definitely don't feel comfortable giving so much for laptop ( for last one that I still use I gave half that) but I will use it for work and plan to use it for 4+ years (I have this one already 4y+). Laptop will be on most of the day and some nights also (running some sims). I work with database and run those seems so good cpu and fast ssd are important schenker is ~2000e, MSI 2700+ What are your thoughts? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Laptop temperature - 50/60 c. too hot? Posted: 20 Apr 2018 12:21 PM PDT I have a Dell xps 13 9360 laptop and I have a question about the temperature. While streaming videos the temperature fluctuates between 50-60 celcius. I know it isn't really hot at all, but will using it continuous at that temp. for several hours daily pose any threat to compnents? I can binge watch for 4+ hours and with an almost constant 50-60c. I keep my laptop on a table or flat surface and room temp. never exceeds 25c. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Looking at buying the Acer Swift 3. Any other laptops I should consider? Posted: 20 Apr 2018 12:08 PM PDT Hi all! I have found this sub to be extremely helpful in my laptop search. Currently, I am looking to upgrade from my 5 year old laptop. Things that I am looking for in a laptop are:
I am currently looking at buying the Acer Swift 3. Specifically this [one](Acer Swift 3, 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8250U, NVIDIA GeForce MX150, 14" Full HD, 8GB LPDDR3, 256GB SSD, SF314-52G-55WQ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0746P25QX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_gFJ2Ab257ZSFP). If there is another laptop you would recommend instead of this, please let me know! Thank you for your time! [link] [comments]  | ||
| What dock for HP Spectre x360 15 inch. Posted: 20 Apr 2018 08:12 AM PDT Hey guys, I picked up a new laptop recently, and I am looking to purchase a dock for the laptop with a thunderbolt USB-C port. I currently am in the need for at minimum two to three USB-A ports, one HDMI port for a 4K monitor, and an audio plug. I may eventually expand to a second monitor. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Looking for a good laptop at a decent price Posted: 19 Apr 2018 10:47 PM PDT I was wanting to build a desktop but I've recently decided I wanted something more mobile. I want a laptop that can run games like rimworld, Minecraft and maybe skyrim if possible. I also want to have it for other normal computer stuff like video streaming and browsing websites. I don't really want to spend over 800$ if possible. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Should i get gigabyte aero 15x In 6 months? Posted: 20 Apr 2018 09:15 AM PDT I have been looking at computers like this and the aero 15x seemed like a good choice. The only thing is that there have been lots of issues with it on this subreddit. Do you think that most software related issues will be fixed by then? As for hardware, I think I should be fine as long as it isn't too severe. I will not use the webcam so I do not care about that. As for cooling, I am planning on using some kryonaught(I hope I spelled that correctly) on both the CPU and GPU and maybe have a laptop cooler for home usage(I probably will not be gaming at school for obvious reasons). Screen bleeding was an issue on one of my old laptops, and I got used to it so it isn't really a big deal to me. I get dead pixel warranty. And finally, I plan on getting a clean OS install so no bloatware. After all of those things I plan on doing, would it still be worth it to get it in a few months? And what are some other issues you guys have experienced? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Hey Reddit: how many laptops have you had? Posted: 19 Apr 2018 07:14 PM PDT Thinking about buying a new laptop the other day, I stopped for a second to think about all the ones I've had so far over this years, so here's a listing of mine. Go ahead and share yours!
Just for the record: No, no Macs on my list. Why? They are so freaking expensive where I live (southern Chile) and support for them, unless you live in Santiago, it's almost non-existent. Now days, it's a bit more easy to find people qualified to work on them, but most of the time, they end up sending your laptop to an "authorized re-seller" which also doubles as tech support (since there's no Official Apple Store down here) So, how about you, Reddit?

| What operating system should I use for a server? Posted: 20 Apr 2018 07:28 AM PDT I'm currently using a old Lenovo Think Pad 10s(?) (originally had Windows XP but now using Ubuntu Mate), and I am thinking about using it as a server but not entirely sure what operating system is best for the job. Primarily, I want it to be able to transfer files between several computers but mostly to stream video files I got from the Internet. I had some experience about 10 years back with a Windows Server but since then I haven't touched a server. I currently own Windows Home Server 2008 but never got around to installing it, though I've heard it's quite good and easy to use. So my question is this; what's a easy to set up and usable server would you recommend and why. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Is this a good computer and deal? Posted: 19 Apr 2018 09:31 PM PDT I am interested in a refurbished 2014 Lenovo for $299 from a user who sells refurbished computers and has a 99.9 percent seller rating on ebay. It is the Lenovo Thinkpad T440 with Core i7-4600U, 8 gb, 500 gb HD. Is it a good computer & deal with good specs? Also, it says that it is 2.70GHz in the processor speed but then in another area info says only 2.1 to 2.69 GHz speed. In another area, says 2.70GHz 4M Cache to 3.30Ghz. What does this all mean? so is this computer 2.1 to 2.69, is it 2.7? or is it 2.7 all the way over 3.30??? Sorry I don' t know that much about computers and speeds. Is it not fast then? I only need it for school note taking and homework, email and messengers like Skype, listening to music, Netflix and youtube, net browsing, reading, pics, also video editing. I am not a gamer so I don't need it for that purpose. Before I had a macbook pro from 2011 until now. It died and I decided to try something new. thanks in advance for answers and help!

| What's available for top tier "2 in 1" if I'm more concerned about power and ports than form factor? Posted: 20 Apr 2018 05:18 AM PDT The Dell XPS's do look awesome but I want something more akin to a powerful laptop that includes a touch screen. I don't care about thin, I want plenty of ports, power and a full keyboard with num pad. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 19 Apr 2018 07:34 PM PDT I spilled garlic butter on the keyboard. Can I wash the keys? Also, is there any chance it got into the hardware? [link] [comments]  | ||
| [General Question] the best laptop for software development ($1500 budget) Posted: 20 Apr 2018 12:30 AM PDT Hey, I am a software developer, and I had a 2014 Macbook pro, i7, 16Gb ram and 256SSD which recently died so I need a new laptop. My budget is $1500 and Tbh I want a laptop that is either 14 or 15 inchs, with i7 Quad Core and SSD. Obviously the new Macbooks are way out of my price range with those specs, plus I don't like the touch bars so I am looking at Lenovo or Dell computers (I am avoiding XPS because of the coil whine problem). I thought about Lenovo T470p with the follow specs: Processor : Intel Core i7-7700HQ Processor (6MB Cache, up to 3.80GHz) Display : 14.0 FHD(1920x1080) IPS Touch Memory : 16GB DDR4 2400MHz SODIMM Graphics : NVIDIA GeForce 940MX 2GB GDRR5 Pointing Device : Fingerprint Reader First Hard Drive : 256 GB Solid State Drive PCIe-NVMe OPAL2.0 - Capable Battery : ThinkPad Battery 6 cell Li-Ion (72Wh) Cylindrical Rear What do you think? Do you guys have other recommendation? Thanks. [link] [comments]  | ||
