| Done with Apple, need new laptop for general use Posted: 22 Sep 2018 10:25 AM PDT Total budget and country of purchase: I'd probably go as high as $1400 but really depends on the long term quality of what im getting, I dont want to have to shell out another $1400 in a couple years for instance. USA. Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. No strong desire for 2 in 1 as I doubt I use the tablet features. Definitely want decent battery life and specs. I dont game heavily but i would like to be able to watch videos, the occasional steam game/modded minecraft without my laptop exploding. Mostly just using it for general use. How important is weight and thinness to you? Not very important. Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Not mac, just too many bad experiences with previous macbooks breaking way too easily and being ridiculously expensive to repair. Prefer something that can interface with my phone (samsung) so probably windows. Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. Torn between 13 and 15. Probably 15. Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Microsoft office, chrome, modded minecraft, nothing that crazy If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? See above. Not much of a gamer but also never really had a computer capable of gaming. Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? I'm now on my 3rd mac in 10 years which is decent but lot of money to shell out every few years. I broke my most recent one by literally gripping the screen too hard with my thumb when closing the lid. Last month the keyboard stopped working and it cost me another $100. I dont need the most durable laptop but something that wont break easily and cost a premium to fix. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I use my laptop alot between the occasional work at home, watching youtube, surfing the web, etc. I dont really do any intensive CPU things. Looking for something that I can buy now and it will last me a good couple of years that will make the purchase worthwhile. I'm regretting continuing to buy apple as I think they break too easily and they're stupidly expensive to repair. I also dont use any other apple products so nothing really interfaces that well. I was looking at the Dell XPS 13 or 15 but not sure if they're too much for what I really need and whether I can go cheaper. Thanks in advance! submitted by /u/Anonymice26 [link] [comments] |

| [US] Thin, light, 2-in-1 with discrete graphics for $1500 - does it exist? Posted: 22 Sep 2018 06:18 PM PDT Total budget and country of purchase: $1500 max, closer to $1000 preferred, U.S. Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. Good build quality, battery life are most important; 2 in 1 is also highly desired; discrete GPU powerful enough to run something like Dark Souls 3 on medium @ 60 FPS would be great, but is the lowest priority How important is weight and thinness to you?

Dark Souls 3, MGS V, Witcher 3, Paladins, are some examples; shooting for medium settings 30-60 FPS Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Has to last through another 3 years of college, is going to be moved around a lot so build quality is important. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I realize that there probably isn't much that ticks all these boxes in this price range, but figured I would ask. Can't buy used, since half of this budget is coming from a grant. submitted by /u/DaDankPenguin [link] [comments] |

| Looking for a nice budget laptop Posted: 23 Sep 2018 03:21 AM PDT * **Total budget and country of purchase:** £300, could possibly stretch to £330. United Kingdom. * **Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply.** I don't care about 2 in 1. Battery life isn't really a problem; as long as it doesn't drain in an hour then it's ok. Top priority is best specs for the money. * **How important is weight and thinness to you?** I'll be carrying it around all day, so pretty important. However shouldn't be a deciding factor. * **Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.** Windows. MacOS is good but way out of budget. Not Chrome OS. * **Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.** Ideal size is 13 inches. 14 inches is also ok, as is 12, but anything biggrr than those (11.6, 15.6) is too much. * **Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.** If at all possible, I would like to play source games such as TF2 and GMod. * **If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?** Source games - I'm ok with a low FPS as long as it's consistent. Would play on highest settings possible to get a consistent FPS. * **Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?** Reliable build quality is good; I don't want some shitty plastic netbook but it doesn't have to be all metal (although that would be nice). Need a decent keyboard as I'll be doing a fair bit of writing on it. * **Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.** If this kind of question has been posted before, apologies and please direct me to it. submitted by /u/dapperdan8 [link] [comments] |

I'm moving my desktop PC to my living room so I can play games on my TV and for a better VR setup. That means I have two 1920x1080 monitors that aren't doing anything, hence the desire for a laptop/docking station to drive them. The monitors are 1920x1080 ViewSonics with DVI and VGA ports. At work I have a dual-core Dell Latitude with 8GB RAM that seems to work fine. The ability to run firefox on the two DVI/VGA monitors is really the most important part. submitted by /u/bootbootbootbootboot [link] [comments] |

I've been looking at the Acer Helios 500, but I've heard the horror stories about Acer so I've also been looking at the ASUS ROG Zephyrus M. It looks more robust than the Acer laptop but has a smaller screen, which could be a deal breaker for me. Anyone here have positive experience with the Acer Helios series? If not, is there some better alternative laptops with 17 inch displays? If all else fails just help convince me that settling with a 15 inch display won't be an eye-straining experience.

I care more about build quality than having a thin, sexy laptop. However, I am a somewhat small person and I still want it to be comfortable on my lap for long stretches. I don't care much about battery life, but it would be nice to still be able to watch maybe 30 minutes of video without the charger in a couple years time. With the budget, I'm more concerned with diminishing returns than the exact number.

Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? - Reliable build and low heat.
Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. - Preferably something with a 1070 for a bit of future proofing. NewEgg has a MSI GP Series GP63 Leopard-428 for $1500ish. Amazon has the ASUS ROG Zephyrus S GX531 for $1900. Sort of torn between the two. Was hoping for suggestions?

| Looking for a laptop for university - Screen size unimportant, budget under £500. (UK) Posted: 22 Sep 2018 12:25 PM PDT Hey everyone Total budget and country of purchase: Budget is about £500 but if a decent machine can be found for less I will consider it. In the UK (Northern Ireland) Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. I don't think I need a 2 in 1, specifications are the highest priority but battery life is important too. How important is weight and thinness to you? Neither are huge to me but weight is more important than thinness. Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. N/A Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Will mostly be Microsoft office and youtube and general web surfing. May play some casual more low-spec games but the games I play will be dependent on the laptop rather than the other way round. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? I tend to play strategy games like Civ V and Crusader kings 2 as well as isometric rpgs like the Shadowrun games. I prioritise performance over graphics. Playing games would be a nice bonus to this machine but isn't my first priority. Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? A decent keyboard and touchpad would be nice but not necessarily required. I don't particularly need a touch screen. Thank you to everyone, I'm really glad subreddits like this exist. submitted by /u/Silverseabird [link] [comments] |
