| Laptop for gaming and creative work Posted: 28 Nov 2018 12:39 AM PST Total budget and country of purchase: 1000-1500 USD. Feel free to suggest laptops outside of this range! Hard cap is 2000USD 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 would be great but not a priority! 4-5hrs of battery would be great too. How important is weight and thinness to you? from a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being very important, I'd say 8. I'd really like to have it on my backpack while i commute. Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 15.6 is enough Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Adobe CC - Ps, Ai, Ae, Lr, Pr CAD - Fusion 360, Rhino, Modo, Keyshot Autodesk Sketchbook I usually play indie games, mobas on my laptop but I'd like to more graphic heavy games in the future (ex. warcraft reforged, destiny, pc ports) If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Indie games, MOBAs, warcraft, destiny Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? * SD card slot, HDMI, 3 USB ports, Touch screen is a plus but not needed Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I sparingly use all the applications mentioned above some more than others because I'm still learning them (ie modo, ae, rhino). I definitely game currently but hopefully with the next laptop I could play more games. I've been doing my research on whether I should i get a laptop with a quadro or gtx but I get so lost that I cant make a decision. I've been looking at the Gigabyte Aero, Razer 15 and MSI GS65 but also hoping to find something cheaper. I've been checking out Dell XPS and some lenovo thinkpads but they arent as adept in gaming. Im really just hoping for a good balance between those two sets of laptops! submitted by /u/aikyvc [link] [comments] |
| 2-in-1 with high quality pen functionality? Posted: 27 Nov 2018 04:14 PM PST - Total budget and country of purchase:
Around $1000-$1400 AUD (around $720-$1000 USD) - can flex a bit. Australia. - 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. Preferrably a Wacom EMR Digitizer for the Pen. Preferrably an IPS monitor. - How important is weight and thinness to you?
Somewhat. As long as it weighs similarly to most 2 in 1s. - Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.
Windows. May dual-boot with Linux if possible, but not a priority. - Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
12-14" range. Again, like most 2 in 1s. - Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
Blender is the #1 priority. I would like to be able to work on low-frequency sculpts. Photoshop CC would also be a priority, but knowing how heavy it is, I'm prepared to learn Affinity instead. Programs I also use which would be cool, but not high priority for this 2 in 1: Substance Painter, 3D Coat, Unreal Engine 4, Premiere/Vegas, possibly zBrush. - If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?
Not a high priority at all. Whatever emulation can take best advantage of the CPU without throttling. I like using software like Moonlight to stream my Desktop PC's output to other devices in the network for games. - Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?
A high quality, reliable pen for drawing input. Already specified Wacom EMR preferred, but I can't seem to find a list of devices that support that. Also obviously want the ability to sync my Desktop PC's output into the 2 in 1's monitor. Those are the only real priorities. - Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.
The Wacom Mobile Station is obviously way out of my price range. The Samsung Galaxy Book seems the logical option, but I've heard mixed things about it: AMOLED screen resulting in burn in, dodgy battery, limited ports, short lifespan, etc. The Surface Pro 6 initially appealed to me, until I started hearing about the pen, and how the slow linework is terrible (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqWMtz4lv0s) submitted by /u/Victorsen1 [link] [comments] |
| Looking for a decent laptop that will be able to do most things. $1500 - $2000 Posted: 28 Nov 2018 03:22 AM PST - Total budget and country of purchase: 2000 AUD. Australia
- 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 form factor.
- How important is weight and thinness to you? In terms of weight, I don't really mind as long as its not too heavy, but in relation to thinness, the weight should be low anyways. In terms of thinness I don't mind too much if its on the thicker side, as long as its not like a brick.
- Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows with a possibility of dual booting with Linux.
- Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. Prefer on the bigger side like 15.6 inch.
- Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Mostly will be for gaming and for school related stuff, but should be able to run some higher demanding games like Black Ops 4. I also use Blender and FL Studio from time to time.
- If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? I regularly play World of Warcraft nowadays, I'd prefer to run WoW at around Medium-High with a minimum average of 60+ FPS majority of the time. While other games such as ARK, Black ops 4, Starcraft 2, CSGO and Overwatch at atleast medium graphics with 60+ FPS average.
- Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Decent build quality is important as I will be travelling often and It will probably be hit against something eventually.
- Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. There will be times where I'll be out for long periods of time and I won't be able to charge my laptop then, so I really need a laptop with a long battery life, usually around 6-8 hours will suffice. During this period I'll be using it for light work such as internet browsing, coding, watching videos and listening to music simultaneously.

If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? See above - gaming unimportant Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? I do not need a touch screen or optical drive. Good input devices would be very much preferred, especially keyboard. I do not want to use one of those "nub" style mice that sits in the middle of a keyboard. They are truly horrible. A USB input would be good potentially so I could use an external mouse. I would prefer an SSD. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.

| Questions about the Razer Blade 15" Posted: 27 Nov 2018 03:29 PM PST Hi. I've wanted to buy a new laptop for a long time now, and I really don't want to wsi until the next release of CPU or GPUs anymore. Ive been looking for something powerful, lightweight, and sleek. Something I can play on but also something that won't embarrass me in public. Anyways I've settled for the Razer Blade 15". The version I will most likely be buying is the GTX 1060 with 60 Hz screen. I wish I could go for the GTX 1070 w/ 144Hz screen, but the former is already pushing my budget. I've been reading about it and there are many different views on this laptop (and razer in general) . They suffer from problems that may need to be RMAd which is very conserving. But in Linus video he mentioned that the newest 2018 are fine? Basically should I be staying away from Razer? They also have some issues with heating, an dive considered buying Conductonaut, but I don't know how long liquid metal lasts. Some say it only lasts like 6 month to max 18 before it ruins the cooling unit as the metals corrode or something. I would like this laptop to be a long term purchase of at least 5-7 years. Should I not apply liquid metal? Thanks in advance submitted by /u/Zahand [link] [comments] |

| Laptop suggestion Posted: 27 Nov 2018 03:38 PM PST Hello Everyone, I'm currently unsure which one is the best buy between Asus Zenbook UX430UA and Dell Inspiron 13 7000. I'm a music student (using programs like Sibelius), I produce and record music (mostly with Ableton live, therefore in need of minimum 8gb of RAM) and I also use Photoshop for college work. I previously bought a cheap laptop that now is almost collapsed and I am tired of slow machines and poor performances so I decided to treat myself with a good piece of gear this time. I would probably go for the Asus Zenbook pro 14 but it's over my budget so I have to choose between the two mentioned laptops, what is your suggestion? Do you think there might be another product I should check before making the final decision? Thank you very much! Paul. submitted by /u/paul89berto [link] [comments] |
