Is 1050 okay for casual gaming? Posted: 01 Jul 2019 12:31 AM PDT So I was thinking of upgrading to something better. Currently I have Acer Aspire E15 with 7th gen i5 and 940MX. I use it for browsing the web, youtube, light video editing and gaming. I'm not your average spoiled pcmasterrace gamer, so I'm okay with my glorious 720p 30-60fps in most modern titles. Still, I was wondering if upgrading to a laptop with Ryzen 5 2500u and GTX 1050 would make a significant difference? Will I notice that I have a much stronger machine? Or is it better to go with 1050 ti and upwards? As I said, I'm not that picky. I want all games to run at a playable FPS, but I don't care if they look like a potato. [link] [comments] |

RTX 2060 vs GTX 1660 Ti vs ???? Posted: 01 Jul 2019 04:33 AM PDT Hey guys! I'm finally upgrading from an MSI GL62M 7RD (with a GTX 1050, i5 7300HQ 2.5GHz). It's been good to me but I need to move on I primarily play Fortnite competitively so I'm looking for something that can reach 144fps (new laptop would obviously need a 144hz screen). Apart from fortnite, I play a bunch of single player games but don't care tooo much for performance there (hoping that Cyberpunk is gonna be as well optimized as Witcher 3!) I want something that is relatively future proof that'll last at least 3 years and still be decent. I'm looking at both brand names and custom builds, and my max budget is around £1500. The NVIDIA range of GPUs is so... confusing. You have your RTXs, then the GTX 1660 Ti fits in there somewhere? I'm looking solely at 15 inch models. I don't care about the keyboard as I play external. I want a top range CPU. Screen needs to be 144hz. Not sure about G-sync tho. Scan.co.uk have their 3XS range. There are these 2 builds I'm looking at from there: Cyberpower systems UK also have a good looking custom build which I'd like an informed opinion on: PC Specialist also have some builds, annoying to link as its all customisable but adding it here anyway: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/notebooks/VortexIX-15/ Can anyone recommend any other UK based (or EU) custom built laptops? Thanks for reading and any help is greatly appreciated [link] [comments] |

Huawei Matebook X Pro or Macbook pro Posted: 01 Jul 2019 03:56 AM PDT I was looking for a new laptop to use primarily for university and using the internet. I'll need to be able to use all Microsoft office products and would like something that will run properly without issue i.e. running out of storage space, crashes, viruses etc. My flatmate has a MacBook and recommends it and it was going to be the purchase I made when someone else recommended that I should get a Huawei laptop as my phone is also Huawei. What product would be the best fit for my needs is it worth getting a Matebook because of the ability to connect my laptop with my phone or is the MacBook a superior option? Sorry for formatting I'm on mobile :/ [link] [comments] |

Too good to be true ? Acer Nitro 5 Sale Posted: 30 Jun 2019 12:21 PM PDT Going on a Linus tech tips recommendation I decided on the Acer Nitro 5. When I go to best buy website there's the Acer nitro 5 1050 ti and 1050 versions. Linus reviewed the 1050 ti model but the 1050 is significantly cheaper. Is the deal really though ? (By that I mean is Best buy trying to sell me a refurbished or older generation while claiming its the new generation?) and is it worth it compared to the 1050 ti version? Appealing to subrules: I'm using it for college. I intend for mainly course work and light gaming on the side. I live in Canada but because of the deal, I'm having it forwarded from a friend in the Us. Link to 1050 version: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/acer-nitro-5-15-6-gaming-laptop-intel-core-i5-8gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050-1tb-hard-drive-shale-black/6212601.p?skuId=6212601 Also, can someone confirm if these are the newest versions of the nitro 5 or am I getting mixed up?

Suggestions for a work laptop please! Posted: 01 Jul 2019 02:06 AM PDT
I recently had a baby (she 12 months old now) and coming back to work from a year hiatus made me realize my desktop won't work anymore which is why I've had the sudden interest in 2 in 1s like a yoga or surface pro. I've been interested in the thinkpad x1 tablet because it had thunderbolt ports and allow me to use my old GPU's. So thunderbolt would be a massive gain. Thank you for your patience, I'm writing this at 4am on my phone so this might be riddled with typos [link] [comments] |
Posted: 30 Jun 2019 09:35 PM PDT I'm gonna be traveling for work and need an upgrade from my 2010 HP. I'm looking to spend less than a grand. I don't need all the gaming design crap, I just want a good quality laptop capable of playing most modern games at medium settings with decent build quality and a nice screen. There are too many options so I was hoping you guys could help me narrow it down to just a few devices. :)

CPU or GPU, which one should I choose? (better CPU or GPU) Posted: 30 Jun 2019 09:27 PM PDT There are 2 laptops that I'm interested in. Both basically have the same specs with 1 difference: *Laptop 1: CPU i7-9750H and GPU 1660ti *Laptop 2: CPU i5-9300H and GPU 2060 I have checked online, and learned that there's a huge difference in the CPU performance of the i7 and i5 (approx 25%), but the GPU performance difference is 5% ish. My problem is that I can't choose between them. Although the performance difference between 1660ti and 2060 will be about 5-10 fps, 2060 has ray-tracing. And coming back to the fps difference, sometimes 5-10 fps matters. What should I do? [link] [comments] |

Looking for a 14 inch, good battery life, good keyboard and good speakers Posted: 01 Jul 2019 12:57 AM PDT Hi, I am looking to buy a new laptop (as you might have guessed) and it got really overwhelming with all the models that there are out there. The things that I am looking for are good keyboard - because I am a programmer and soon a student I would do a lot of typing on this laptop. A good screen, I will watch a lot of videos on this laptop. Good battery life, as I wouldn't want to stay close to charging ports during a long day. Strong enough for light gaming, I am not going to play Battlefield 5 on the laptop, but I would want to play some indies on it, maybe things like Crash and Spyro trilogy is a good indicator. And I would need some storage space, either built in, or an option to upgrade the laptop and add additional HDD. Flex and touch-screen are not a must, but I wouldn't mind if it would be included, but it's not a deal breaker. Price range: Up to 1000$ I have seen a dell 14 inch (5480), i7-8565U, 16GB of RAM, Nvidia MX250, 128gb SSD + 1TB HDD for 1000$, but it seems to be a local model as I can't find any reviews for it online on international sites. IN-RD33-11282. But the lack of reviews scares me. Is there anything you recommend? [link] [comments] |

Student Laptop + Gaming. Recommendations Needed! Posted: 30 Jun 2019 06:57 PM PDT So basically, I want a laptop that is functional for a student in the sense that - the battery life is good or at least decent (5+ hours when Not gaming). - not too too heavy. Preferably around 7lbs. give or take. On the gaming end im looking - to play many light games (sims, stardew valley, etc.) - but I like to venture into games like Sid Meiers Civ, city builders like Cities Skylines & a few more medium intensity to higher graphics intense games. - i dont play anything incredibly intensive like battlefield or any shooters really for that matter of fact. Price range: the most im willing to spend is around 3k tax included. Would love to hear y'alls recommendations. Not interested in HP, Lenovo or Acer miss me with that poor sh*t, also not looking for Macbooks... beautiful but cant do anything. [link] [comments] |
Opinions on the Surface Book 2? Posted: 30 Jun 2019 09:26 AM PDT Thinking of buying 3 for senior managers in my company, but feel like I could meet their needs with a 1k euro laptop.

Good performance oriented Ultrabook from 2019? Posted: 30 Jun 2019 11:20 AM PDT
Thanks! [link] [comments] |
New gaming laptop that will last me a while. Posted: 30 Jun 2019 11:16 PM PDT Total budget and country of purchase: Around $1000. I would order the laptop from within my home country, i.e. Pakistan. Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. A mix of both maybe? I'm not too picky. How important is weight and thinness to you? Weight is not a big issue for me. Just that it should not be super stocky and big. Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. I prefer screens around the 15' size. Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Only gaming more or less. Otherwise netflix and music streaming mostly. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Games like WoW, Dota, Divinity Original Sin II on moderate settings with decent FPS with little input delay. I just want it to be better than my current fps and graphics (link to my current laptop below). Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Yes to reliable build quality. Good/Average Keyboard as well. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I have been lurking around this subreddit and researching on a new laptop for a while now, and have currently whittled is down to two laptops, the Acer Predator Helios 300 G3-571-77QK (but I hear this gets too hot) and the Dell i7577-5241BLK-PUS (I hear the screen is horrible). For reference and context, my current laptop is about 5-6 years old (i'm in the office so cannot tell the exact name of the laptop cause its at home but it has like an AMD r5 graphics card). Thanks!

I dont think I am very picky about display quality, but I would prefer a screen that is not too terrible and something okay to look at comfortably for most of the day. Also (I am probably asking a lot by now) a machine that is not loud during light use. I am leaning towards thinkpads but dont let my initial thoughts bias you :) [link] [comments] |
Suggestions for a stylish laptop capable of moderate gaming Posted: 30 Jun 2019 06:39 PM PDT Hi all! After lurking around for a few weeks, I figured I'd go ahead and ask specifically about what laptops would be recommended for my needs. I currently have an older Vaio laptop that I really like but need to replace soon. Total budget and country of purchase: Ideally around 1k, but could be talked into higher if needed. USA. Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Probably best specs. How important is weight and thinness to you? I would prefer to stay pretty thin. I tried out a ASUS Nitro and hated how it was so bulky and the general styling. I really hate the gaming laptops with red accents or other design elements that scream "I AM A GAMING LAPTOP." Which OS do you require? Windows. Do you have a preferred screen size? I currently have a 17 inch and really like that size, but it isn't make or break to me. Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? Some gaming! If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? I want to easily play Sims 4 on high optics. I also am purchasing this before Planet Zoo comes out and would like to play that on higher settings too- so I need at least a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 (2GB) / AMD Radeon R9 270X (2GB) and 8 GB RAM. Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? I can adapt to most things, but it absolutely has to have a number pad on the right. I like sleek, stylish machines, but realize those usually come with higher price tags. I prefer backlit keys, but not red lights (I really hate the color red, yet every gaming laptop seems to love it!) Thank you all so much for any suggestions :) I really appreciate your input and time! [link] [comments] |
Chromebook that works as file manager and OneNote machine? Posted: 30 Jun 2019 03:59 PM PDT Essentially looking for something that is essentially an internet browser but lets me manipulate my external hard drive while letting me work on OneNote. Hopefully around 400? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
