Posted: 29 Jul 2018 01:51 PM PDT Anyone have any experience buying Best Buy recertified open box? Ive been looking at a dell xps 15 that is sold and shipped by a company named DCR who I've never heard of and found no information about. Under description it claims to still have the 1 year warranty but still seems a bit weird to me. https://m.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/dell-xps-15-9570-15-fhd-nvidia-1050ti-intel-i7-8750h-16gb-ram-512gb-ssd-win-10-home-recertified-open-box/12741781 [link] [comments] | ||

Does Lenovo usually have back-to-school sales? Posted: 29 Jul 2018 01:44 PM PDT I'm gonna buy a Lenovo thinkpad E480 for college in the fall. I heard it's best to wait until August because most places have back to school sales. I'm gonna buy it directly from Lenovo's website, should I wait a week or two and see if anything comes up?

Posted: 29 Jul 2018 01:10 PM PDT Not totally sure I should ask this her but whatevs. I have my own credit card and all that jazz and I was wanting to go into high school with a new laptop for myself. My family has a laptop for all of us to use but I wanted one that I can customize and install my own programs on to use for myself. By programs I mean photo/video editors, Microsoft things and some others. The thing is my parents say I don't need one when we have the family one. I was wondering if anyone can help me find other reasons than I need it for school and such. Thanks. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 29 Jul 2018 06:35 AM PDT I am looking for a laptop for school as my current one broke down, I have no experience whatsoever with laptops and my budget is roughly 500€. I don't need any good specs or anything like that, the computer should just run nicely and should be easy to carry and shit. P.S. Not looking to buy a Mac. Thanks for any answers, sorry if it's an unappreciated question. [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 29 Jul 2018 11:09 AM PDT Im looking at the Surface Book 2 and Lenovo Yoga 920. Mainly these are high on my list for portability and power. Slightly leaning towards the surface book due to the extra GPU when connected to the keyboard. If anyone else has suggestions I'd love to hear them! [link] [comments] | ||
I want a Xiaomi mi pro, but I really shouldn’t Posted: 29 Jul 2018 10:55 AM PDT I need a laptop for school that starts in September, I am going to sell my workstation of four years and completely switch over to using a laptop. I only really use my computer for programming, and the occasional game of CS with my friends when I am bored. My needs : I will probably be ok with 256gb of storage, but I'll need it to be m.2 Definitely a I7 16 gig of ram. 13"-15" 1080p is good enough for me. Be around £1000 A DGPU would be nice And finally It needs to be well built I have read and watched some reviews on the Xiaomi mi pro and it seems to be a perfect match for me. But I have also read that it comes with no support what so ever and they are fairly prone to failure, which scares me a little. I wouldn't say I'm careless with my stuff, I have had a iPhone 7 since it came out and I use it without a case or screen protector and there is not a scratch on it. But I would still like for it to have at least a little bit of support. I have read that the Huawei matebook x pro is really good also, I prefer the xiaomi over it though. Are there any other laptops around that price that I should consider? Thanks. [link] [comments] | ||
I have a Latitude E6540 and I want to buy 16gb of ram I Was Wondering If Anyone Could Help Me? Posted: 29 Jul 2018 10:13 AM PDT The official dell latitude memory compatibility website lists the latitude e6540 as using ddr3l low voltage memory with 1600mhz. Does that mean I can just pick up any standard 2 sticks of 8gb ram of ddr3l 1600mhz and plop it into both slots and it would work and recognize it? and if I answered my own question sorry I just don't want to spend $100 bucks to get a dud.

Posted: 29 Jul 2018 10:01 AM PDT But linksalu, you're never supposed to go full laptop! Alright, so I'm a PC gamer. I'm rocking an older desktop system right now, but hey, it handles R6 Siege, PUBG, and The Witcher 3 just fine, so I haven't felt a pressing need to upgrade...until now ;) My current desktop specs: i5-3550, Geforce 960. The thing is, I've recently started traveling a lot, bouncing around from country to country for roughly half the year before heading back home to save up for the next round. During these periods of travel, I'm hauling around an older HP Envy with an i7-4722HQ and a GeForce 950M. I'm only able to play emulator games and less intensive stuff on this thing, like Pillars of Eternity. Then I saw this Linus Tech Tips video and wondered if I could have my cake and eat it too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjty3I3Cdg8
The idea would be to use this laptop as a desktop for half the year, then use the laptop as an actual mobile device the other half, while traveling. 5) Can I expect to keep this laptop for 3 or 4 years, with the only substantial upgrades arriving via newer GPUs in the eGPU enclosure? 6) Will I murder my laptop if I'm using it for the majority of the day, every day, the way I do my desktop? I've always been under the impression that the failure rate on laptops are way higher than desktops. As somebody who has never gone full laptop, I'd love to hear from the community. Thanks!

Dell XPS 13 8th gen I5 processor question. Posted: 29 Jul 2018 08:42 AM PDT Can I use the XPS 13 with an 8th gen i5 processor for Starcraft 2 and schoolwork? I don't know much about computers and I have never owned my own. Any feedback would be appreciated. [link] [comments] | ||
1080p 144hz IPS vs 4k 60hz IPS Posted: 28 Jul 2018 11:52 PM PDT I know there has been countless threads on this subject, but my question is a bit different. I am planning to do some light CAD, among other things such as watching videos and browsing the internet on my laptop, and also game on the side. I have the choice between 2 identical laptops,the only difference being the display. I'm wondering which one of these would be the best solution. If the 4k display is chosen, I would still play games in 1080p, but use the 4k for everything else. I've been told that the difference between 144hz and 60hz is night and day, but 4k destroys 1080p in terms of CAD. The laptop I will be using has an i7 8750h, GTX 1060 6gb Max-Q, 16gb DDR4 2666mhz RAM, and a 256gb SSD, if that helps. I will be doing things like watching YouTube and browsing the internet, as well as using Fusion 360 and playing most modern titles like Overwatch, Fortnite, Rainbow Six Siege, etc. Thanks for any help!

Laptop with 4k screen bad for gaming? Posted: 29 Jul 2018 08:17 AM PDT Hey all! I planning on buying this laptop second hand: Asus Gaming Notebook G501JW-FL398T. I was very hyped but the 4k resolution isn't necessary. I heard from friends that the 4k screen could cause low FPS when gaming... is this true? Wouldn't I just be able to change the resolution? I can get this laptop second hand, almost new, for 700 euros. Any advice would be apreciated :) (The main game I play is Guild Wars 2 if that helps) Thanks in advance for any help! -Noah [link] [comments] | ||
How bad is the thermal situation on the XPS 15? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 07:29 PM PDT I've heard various things from various sources. I'm looking into getting the laptop soon, and would like to know whether the thermal situation is a dealbreaker or not I'm looking at the 6 core 8th gen i7 model w the 4K panel. Any help would be greatly appreciated. [link] [comments] | ||
A laptop for music production, mixing, mastering and maybe a bit of fun Posted: 29 Jul 2018 07:07 AM PDT Hey all! My Dell XPS 9530 (i7 4712HQ, 16GB RAM, 1TB HDD, etc) is dead. Rest in peace, my old battered and bruised friend. You know what that means... a new laptop! Yey! I need it for music production, mixing (both studio and live), mastering and maybe... a bit of fun. Here's my criteria:
Here's my list of candidates:
Note that I've excluded both the new Dell XPS and the Asus Zenbook Pro. They're both gorgeous laptops, but soldered memory is unacceptable and I've grown weary of Dell as a company. The laptops also have to be available in Nordic countries - Norway to be specific - so no MSI Aero 15X for me =( I went for thin and light gaming laptops for a nice balance of performance and portability. I want to make a solid investment as it has to be a powerhouse and last me a fair bit of time. I'm keen on hearing people experiences with these laptops. Feel free to challenge my criteria and choice of laptops.
"Why not a MacBook? It's the choice laptop for music production!" I don't like Dell. You think I like Apple even more? CoreAudio is nice, but NO SOLDERED MEMORY OR STORAGE goddamnit. Help me, r/laptops. You're my only hope. I'm an indecisive bastard and don't want to suffer buyer's remorse (though it's unavoidable that I won't be at least a little bit disappointed). Thanks for reading my novel! [link] [comments] | ||
Overclock a max-Q dGPU to normal levels? (T480s MX150 vs. T480 MX150) Posted: 29 Jul 2018 06:18 AM PDT I've googled around and I understand that in general, it's a bad idea to OC on a laptop since the cooling solution will not be good enough in the ultrabooks that have the max Q version in the first place, but T480s vs T480 seem like an exception to this. It seems like the T480s got the max Q version only because of the shorter battery life compared to the T480 as the cooling between both are identical. In some cases the T480s actually has better cooling and performance compared to the T480 which comes with a single heatpipe if it's not configured with a dGPU. Unfortunately, no one seems to have tried it before on the T480s (mainly searched around /r/thinkpad) and the max-Q MX150 is what's making me hesistate on getting a T480s (vs. getting a T480 or an X1C6) in the first place. I'm tempted to risk it anyways and go ahead with a T480s order (33% off EPP), I assume I would try it with something like MSI afterburner or Throttle stop after repasting. Does this sound plausible?
