400 maaay go a bit higher, USA
Don't give much shit, and battery life doesn't matter either just looking to put money in performance only
Don't care at all
Mostly familiar with Windows
A bit big, like 15" but not a breaking factor
The most gaming I'll be doing is GTA San Andreas, some programs I use are mp3 tag editing for iTunes
SAN ANDREAS DOG, and actually Simpson's hit and run, aaand tony hawks pro skater

| Posted: 21 Sep 2018 11:58 PM PDT Currently looking to see what's better than the ASUS UX31 with the 620m, or the Lenovo Flex 5 with the i7 8th gen and 940mx. I wanna go for the lower end of my budget but if the best deals are around 1000 or slightly more I'll save up and go for it. I basically want to be able to get the most power that I can get without going over 1000 if I can, while being able to hold and use it like a tablet, without being too bulky, and of course has a powerful and/or efficient battery. I don't have much time to search all over the different online stores, but I am an Amazon Prime Student member, I am enrolled in school and have an active student email, if that helps me get special offers. I'm saving things to my wishlist off Amazon for later comparisons, but if anyone sees something better I can get, that would be great. I'm hoping that the least I can do, is be able to work on moderately detailed 2D games in Unity or Unreal or maybe Godot Engine, maybe simple 3D games, and do photoshop digital art with as many layers as I can. I prefer processing/GPU power over storage, I can manage external storage when needed. Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 21 Sep 2018 07:44 PM PDT Hey guys! So I'm looking for something thats really light weight but also has a wide screen. I know most large screens are bulky which I don't want. I'll be running Solidworks and Matlab on it, I really don't care about the memory or any other specs. Just light weight and wide screen is what I'm looking for. Looking for 400 or less but feel free to suggest all priced options. Thank you for reading everyone! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 21 Sep 2018 11:07 PM PDT Hi Guys,
I am looking for a laptop only for gaming purpose. I would have built a desktop but I am going to move after 1 year. There are two laptops that have caught my eye MSI GV Core i5 8th Gen - (8 GB/1 TB HDD/128 GB SSD/Windows 10 Home/6 GB Graphics) GV62 8RE-038IN Gaming Laptop ASUS ROG Strix GL503GE-EN041T 15.6-inch Laptop (8th Gen Core i7-8750H/8GB/1TB/Windows 10/4GB Graphics,128 PCIE SSD), Looking for gaming laptop is really a headache here in India. Same laptop that cost $1000 in US cost $1500 in india. Any Advice would be great [link] [comments]  |
| What is the difference between acer e15 and acer e5 Posted: 21 Sep 2018 08:35 PM PDT So all I'm looking for is some light gaming (Sims 4 mostly lol) and have plenty of storage space for my music collection. This is Acer e5 is currently on sale at https://www.target.com/p/acer-aspire-e5-575t-3678-notebook-obsidian-black-e5-575t-3678/-/A-52152037 and it seems to have everything I want except could really care less about the 2 in 1touch screen. My last laptop lasted me 5 years a Dell Inspiron n5050 so I don't think I demand too much from a laptop but I wanted to know the difference before I buy anything. [link] [comments]  |

| Acer E5-576G-50EN or Lenovo Ideapad 320-15IKBRN Posted: 22 Sep 2018 12:51 AM PDT Hey there! Both of the laptops have virtually the same specs, an 8th gen i5, 2Gb MX150, 4gb RAM, and 2TB HDD. I guess it all comes down to battery life, build quality, durability, and efficiency. What is the better choice from the two? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Help with specs for my needs for a new laptop Posted: 22 Sep 2018 12:22 AM PDT I'm going to be getting a new laptop and have been doing research for the past 4 hours or so reading about RAM, processors, etc. I currently have a mid 2012 MacBook Pro and want an upgrade. I do game a bit so that's important to me however I don't play heavy games such as GTA, Skyrim, etc. the laptop will really be for everyday use along with gaming as my primary use. I'm a college student fixing to graduate. I was told to go after i7 with 16GB of ram. However, I was reading i5 is very similar to i7 in terms of performance with gaming and really where the i7 comes in handy with is for streaming games (twitch), modding, coding, video editing, etc. of which I do none of that type of stuff. I also understand that as far as RAM goes 16gb is much better than 8gb but I was reading a lot of people are fine with 8gb. Can someone point me in the right direction as far as laptops go? I've been looking at Dell because my girlfriends dad works there and gets a 20% discount so that's something to think about. I'd like to spend around $700-$800, but can go up a little more if the laptop is worth it. Currently the laptop I'm really intrigued in is $950 on dells site (so about $800 with discount) with i7, 16 GB, etc. but then I also see a similar laptop for about $750 that's i5, 8GB. Is there anything else I should really be looking at in terms of performance asides from RAM and processor? Any suggestions to where I should look and any info is welcomed! I'm really trying to learn this foreign language that is computers. Haha [link] [comments]  |
| Searching for a 2-in-1 under $700USD Posted: 21 Sep 2018 04:22 PM PDT * **Total budget and country of purchase:** $600-$700, not much higher but lower is best. United States * **Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply.** 2-in-1 is preferable, good battery life isn't a must but I would like it. * **How important is weight and thinness to you?** Not very important, just not ridiculously heavy or thick * **Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.** Windows as Mac OS is too expensive * **Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.** Under 15in or 16in * **Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.** I may do some digital art and i will definitely do light gaming. For art, I'm open to options but I will likely use Clip Studio Paint EX * **If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?** The Sims 4 and ROBLOX are the main goals. I don't care about settings in ROBLOX. For TS4, I don't like the lowest of the low; medium or low medium is good for me. * **Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?** Nothing specific, although I would love a nice keyboard and touchpad * **Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.** It would be good if I can find it at a local store, but online is okay too. I like to have a good looking laptop, no big bezels and no ridiculous thickness if possible. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 21 Sep 2018 06:54 PM PDT What are you coming from? Currently I have a early 2015 Macbook Air 13". Ontel HD Graphics 6000 1.5GB, with 4GB 1600Mhz DDR3 RAM and i5 1.6Ghz. 120GB model. Why do you want to upgrade? Main reason is for better power for video editing in Final Cut Pro X (currently takes way too long to render, and you can hear the machine really working over time!). But also still want to maintain portability (size, weight, slimness). Leaning towards Mac because I can use FCP and I find it easy to use for just browsing (which is the only other thing I do if I'm not editing). P.S. I only edit once a year so it doesn't need to be super super duper powerful. Total budget and country of purchase: Unlimited but preferably < $1,500 USD. Buying in Australia Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? 2-in-1 is a bonus, but not if it can't stand up by itself (I lie in bed a lot with laptop on my legs). Coming from a 2015 MBA 13" so anything with equivalent or better battery life should be good enough for me. How important is weight and thinness to you? Yes, important. Looking for a light-weight one (similar to 2015 MBA 13" is fine) Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Prefer Mac for Final Cut Pro X. But also use Windows normally so wouldn't mind that if the machine is much better. Do you have a preferred screen size? Around 13" is preferred. 15" is probably too big for travelling for me. Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? Only strenuous thing I'm doing is video editing. Currently using MBA for Final Cut Pro X where it takes super long to render small clips. I use transitions and colour effects so this slows it down. This is pretty much the main reason I'm looking for a new laptop - to add a bit more grunt to what I have currently. P.S. Currently I have an Intel HD Graphics 6000 1.5GB, with 4GB 1600Mhz DDR3 RAM and i5 1.6Ghz - and it actually does the job alright for me, albeit a bit slower. So I'd like it to be much better than this, but doesn't have to blow it out of the water! Because portability & price are still factors for me. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? N/A Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad) Touch screen would be a huge plus! (but then means I can't go Mac route). Fast memory card reader for transferring photos would be a small bonus but otherwise I'd just use an adapter. Would prefer some sort of USB C charging over other ways (because I use a Pixel) but I don't overly care too much about this. Touchbar for Mac would potentially be good for video editing (?) but pretty sure this would never be 'value for money' in my eyes. [link] [comments]  |

| Acer Nitro 5 okay for casual use + suggestions around the same price range (~$1300 CAD/$1000 USD) Posted: 21 Sep 2018 04:10 PM PDT
I've been looking into getting a laptop around the ~1300 CAD ($1000 USD) price range and have been eyeballing the Acer Nitro 5. I've read up on it and it from user reviews the biggest problems that stick out are trying to add a hard drive into a hard drive voids your warranty and most importantly heating issues. If I use the laptop mainly for casual use such as just netflix/youtube/web browsing with some light gaming (No triple A stuff on Ultra or anything like that but more like FFXIV and other less demanding jrpg titles) will the heating issues be a dealbreaker for this laptop? I see people saying that it's ok in short bursts of 1-2 hours but would it be okay longer on less intensive games? I have a gaming pc for when I want to run the really high end stuff but having a decent laptop to enjoy while lying on the bed would be nice. This is the laptop in question: https://www.amazon.ca/Acer-AN515-51-76YG-Laptop-i7-7700HQ-Windows/dp/B071JLXH2G Main reason for the $1300 price tag is because I was thinking of buying an ipad then realized it costs around that much to get a high end laptop that could do much more. Also willing to pay a bit more if I can buy it off amazon or directly in a store since with prime it's easier to control the delivery date and get it on the weekends when I don't have work.

| Is the HP Omen 17t a good value? Posted: 21 Sep 2018 09:16 PM PDT I've been looking for a desktop replacement laptop for quite some time now, and the OMEN 17t seems like a very good value, especially considering that you can apply codes to save even more money off of OMEN laptops. The config that I am looking at costs $1499 without the code applied, but with the code applied, it's $1399, and this laptop is fitted with a 1070, 8750H, 16GB RAM, 1TB HDD +16GB Optane, and a 144hz 1080p G-SYNC screen. I haven't seen any better offers for a new laptop with a full 1070, what do you guys think? I have also noticed that there are multiple listings of the 17t on HP's website, and I am wondering if there are any differences between them, and some of them, such as the two listed below seem to be incredibly similar, the only difference being price. If I spec these two listing to be the same (16GB RAM, 1070, 144hz screen, 86W battery, etc.) , then they are very similar, only difference being the second listing having a slightly cheaper final price. (with the code applied of course) Thoughts? OMEN Laptop - 17t Gaming: Omen by HP - 17t Laptop Best Value [link] [comments]  |
| What's the lightest laptop with a numeric keypad? Posted: 21 Sep 2018 02:28 PM PDT Tired of bulky, heavy and thick laptops. I deal with numbers and Microsoft Excel on Microsoft Windows 10. My job requires traveling most of the year. Edit: open budget [link] [comments]  |
| Having trouble deciding between these 2 $1,200 laptops Posted: 21 Sep 2018 10:35 AM PDT I found 2 $1,200 gaming laptops with GTX 1060s and 8th gen i7s. The HP one has a 1TB HDD and a 128GB SSD (as opposed to the Acer's 256GB SSD and no HDD) and doesn't seem to run as hot or have as many problems (and it also looks cooler). The Acer one has a better refresh rate (144hz vs 60hz) but seems to have a lot of problems with heat, and also a shorter battery life. I don't know a ton about PC hardware so sorry if anything i said was off. Thanks!

| Advice on laptop for graduate analytics program? Posted: 21 Sep 2018 07:01 AM PDT
This laptop will be on my lap 90% of the time so upward facing speakers / vents would be ideal. Lastly, I've always been resistant to laptops because touchpad seems to have a mind of their own sometimes and frustrate me. So bonus points if the trackpad is accurate. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 21 Sep 2018 03:20 PM PDT MSI just debuted the MSI P65 Creator, which I think looks great. Has the 1060-1070 Nvidia GPU, but it doesnt have the keypad. I want something thin, portable. 15" screen. Capable of good performance. Really want to have a keypad. Closest I can find is the G63 Stealth. The G65 Stealth THIN would be perfect, but again it loses the keypad. [link] [comments]  |
