Pros and cons of lenovo legion y540 ? Posted: 17 Aug 2019 11:26 PM PDT Hey, anyone bought this laptop? What do u think about it [link] [comments] |
Thoughts on Dell G5 Series 15 Laptop for University Posted: 18 Aug 2019 03:00 AM PDT Hello everyone, Im looking to buy a laptop for University and I intend on gaming maximum 2 hours a day on games such as Apex, Witcher 3 at 60 fps on medium/high settings. Im heavily leaning towards this laptop https://www.dell.com/en-uk/shop/gaming-and-games/dell-g5-15-gaming-laptop/spd/g-series-15-5587-laptop/cn55822 , mainly because of reviews I have seen from youtubers such as Dave Lee, Linus.. Plus I like the idea of Dell premium support+ onsite service. I intend on using it for 4+ years at least and plan to be careful i.e. not around food and drinks, cleaning fans every 1.5 weeks, not using it on surfaces that causes heat to build up etc. However, I would appreciate any and all advice regarding the viability of this purchase in terms of Battery life, longevity, thermals and overall value for money. It will be my first laptop and so I intend on wanting to make the best purchase. If there are any other alternatives that you may know of under £1000, please let me know. Thank you [link] [comments] |

Matebook D w/ AMD Ryzen or Matebook X w/ i5 7200u? Posted: 18 Aug 2019 02:29 AM PDT Hello folks. I'm due to purchasing a new laptop, which shall be useful for university related activities such a document editing and MS office general use and photo editing with Adobe PS, Lightroom and other dedicated software. I was looking for a sturdy, light and portable laptop with a monitor with great colour accuracy, snappy performance, decent battery life (even moderate is OK, I'm not a heavy user). I've read the Matebook X (2017 model) falls a bit behind in terms of connectivity, as many useful ports have been sacrificed for the sleek and minimal thickness of the device. However it comes with an adaptor for USB-A/VGA/HDMI/LAN. A matebook D with Ryzen costs around €550 on Amazon. I've got offered a used Matebook X i5 7200u with 1 month warranty left for the same price. Hard decision, could you please give your 2 cents on regards? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 18 Aug 2019 02:02 AM PDT Hello! I just bought the MSI GS65 and I'm starting to have buyers remorse because I already have a gaming desktop and I don't want battery life to be an issue, I'm wondering if I really need a gaming laptop since I will have my desktop with me in college. This laptop will mainly be used for college, I am majoring in computer science. I was looking at the HP Spectre since they have good battery life and high specs. The Spectre is $60 more than what I paid for the MSI. * **Total budget and country of purchase:** $1400 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.** I do not mind using 2 in 1, I would like good battery life, 6 hours is ok * **How important is weight and thinness to you?** weight is important to me since I will be moving around with it * **Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.** Windows * **Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.** 13 - 15.6 * **Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.** light gaming, programming, occasional photoshop [link] [comments] |

laptop preference that can run daily tasks without issue and can run some games? About $250 budget Posted: 17 Aug 2019 08:20 PM PDT As the title suggest I'm looking for a laptop that can do your usual stuff (web browsing, coding, etc...) but can also run games. I'm not trying to play 60FPS 4K resolution, just maybe some WoW, Diablo, whatever. I've got about a $250 budget I don't mind if it's open box, clearance, or whatever. Thank you guys for all your help! [link] [comments] |
Need a sub $600 laptop for school. Posted: 17 Aug 2019 11:37 PM PDT I want the quickest laptop that I can get for <$600. I prioritize speed and specs, battery life is not an issue neither is 2in1. I'll be doing some light gaming only (minecraft and league of legends.) Prefer an ssd. Thanks in advance. [link] [comments] |
Lenovo Y540 v. Acer Predator Helios 300 v. Dell G5 5590 (a bit urgent) Posted: 17 Aug 2019 04:02 PM PDT Okay y'all so I'm in a bit of a pickle rn. So after months of doing research and with Student Sales going on right now, these are the three laptops I'm looking at the hardest. The Lenovo Y540 (either the 9750H 1660ti Model or the RTX 2060 Model), the ever so talked about Acer Predator Helios 300 (2019) or the Dell G5 5590 (I talked to Walmart Support and the refresh rate is indeed 144 hz). I have not a lot of time since the Lenovo sale ends tomorrow so which one should it be reddit. [link] [comments] |

Looking for a laptop for multiple uses (gaming, editing, programming, etc) Posted: 17 Aug 2019 05:55 PM PDT Hi all! So I'm looking for a laptop that'll last me a while. Here's some of the things that I would like for it to be able to do: -Gaming: I used to be active gamer (LoL, ffxiv, destiny, and a shit ton of mmorpg's) but I'm in my last year of uni and am working an internship + job so I've taken a huge step back. I play every now and then and download a indie games from steam when I get the chance. And, I sometime hook up my ps4 for remote play when I don't have access to a tv. I'd like something that can handle these things, and more if I decide to get back into gaming again. -Video Editing: I do a lot of editing on the side as a hobby and as a side gig. I use mostly sony vegas pro and after effects. I'd like something that'll let me pre-render my work a bit faster (especially if they're open simultaneously). My current desktop is pretty old and half the time just to precompose or just pre render a section to check it out.. -music editing/composing: audacity, sibelius, museScore, Finale programming- I do some coding and data manipulation, but not extremely so because I'm still learning (python, sql, r) -be able to use visualisation tools like power BI, tableau, visio, dynamics. CRM softwares like dymanics -microsoft office programs -adobe creative cloud: photoshop, dreamwaver, after effects, etc -my budget is around $2500 , can be a bit more if the system will last me a long time. I'd prefer not to buy a Mac, unless you have a very good reason to (not super familiar with the os in general) I'm sorry if this seems like a lot! It's just that I'm trying to make this a worthwhile investment. Thank you for reading! [link] [comments] |
Looking for a refurbished 12.5 inch beater laptop for work Posted: 17 Aug 2019 09:34 PM PDT I do some IT work and am in the market for a small laptop 12.5 inch screen for looking up things on site with a customer.

I want to be able to access the hard drive and ram. Two models I am currently looking at are the lenovo thinkpad x230 and the Dell latitude e6230 or if you have any other suggestions. Edit: I guess I have to use this form so..... * **Total budget and country of purchase:** -USA * **Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? .** -fill here, remove dashes- * **How important is weight and thinness to you?** -should not be too heavy, Which OS do you require?

Looking for a laptop that delivers the best bang for buck for university. Posted: 17 Aug 2019 09:05 PM PDT My overall budget is 600 - 900 I'm looking for a ultra portable notebook with MX150 or Radeon integrated graphics or at least something that can run popular esports titles at 60fps 1080p. Also the battery life needs to be enough to last an entire day of school (8hrs) with moderate use. If anyone can help that would be amazing this is kind of last minute! [link] [comments] |
Replacement for my surfarce pro 4 which has had an accident with a water bottle. Posted: 17 Aug 2019 08:33 PM PDT My trusty surface pro 4 2016 (i5, 256gb) was probably coming to the end of its life anyway (weird green patches on screen, poor connectivity with the keyboard), but it now has water in the screen (post rice treatment) and I don't think I can trust it anymore. So time for a new one. Looking at hp spectre or lenovo yoga. Partner has had a bad experience with his dell xps13 so a little wary. Total budget and country of purchase: AUD$2000 Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? 2 in 1 defintely. Good battery life. How important is weight and thinness to you? Very, I carry in my handbag. Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.** Windows Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.** 13in or less Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Low level photo editing. 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 and pen compatible for signing documents. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. Mainly for uni work, watching uni lectures, raw photo processing with olympus software. Gets lugged onto and off of small planes at work. Helpful if I can use it as a "tablet" during take off on commercial flights without having to stow. Would like to charge with usb-c port rather tjan proprietary charger if possible.

* **How important is weight and thinness to you?** Not important * **Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.** Windows or linux * **Do you have a preferred screen size?

URGENT - Graphic Design student in need of a laptop ASAP! Posted: 17 Aug 2019 08:32 AM PDT Hi there. I'm a a graphic design student who is currently transferring to a university after 3 years at community college...and my laptop just decided to spontaneously give up on me A WEEK BEFORE COLLEGE STARTS. BACKSTORY – Since June 2016 I have had a Surface Pro 4. I loved it, but after 2 years the battery expanded and it became a hazard. So, Microsoft sent me a refurbished one even though my surface's warranty expired. Well, I've had this refurbished sp4 for LESS THAN 9 MONTHS and suddenly my Microsoft charger and docking station doesn't charge my sp4 anymore. I did literally nothing to my laptop, I have no idea wtf happened. Long story short, Microsoft refuses to refurbish it or fix it unless I pay $450 since its "out of warranty". So I'd have to pay $450 for them to send me another f-ed up laptop 😂. I think not. I'm able to charge it with a 3rd party charger but nothing else. Tested my docking station and other charger on my mom's sp4 and they work perfectly fine. Did everything I possibly could but nothing worked, I believe it's ANOTHER battery issue. Anyway, I'm the typical broke af college student. But I'm willing to invest in a laptop that will actually last me longer than 3 years w/o having to replace it every couple years. I really do love the laptops Microsoft has been releasing over the years, but I just cannot justify losing $1600 in less than 3 years and dealing with all this bs again. I did find out that this college requires graphic design students to bring their laptop everyday to class since they can't guarantee all classes a computer lab. Which wasn't a total shock, but I usually design on my massive monitor and use my sp4 as a second screen. I have such a difficult time designing on such a small screen since theres a lot to manage when designing. . MY CURRENT SP4'S SPECS: i7-6650U CPU @ 2.2GHz, 8GB RAM, 64-bit operating system, 256GB Storage, 12.3" Screen, 2736 x 1824 px display, 267PPI, 1.73lbs, 11.50 x 7.93 x 33in . So, I'm in need of a new laptop. Obviously no laptop will hit every single one of these qualities perfectly, but here's some things I'm looking for: TOUCH SCREEN – Preferably I'd like it to be touch screen, but doesn't need to act as a tablet like the sp4 does. I don't draw digitally. PORTABILITY – I'lll be carrying this everywhere w/me so I'd love it to be lightweight. DURABILITY – Definitely need it to withstand time and hopefully not have battery issues. RAM – I'd like alot of it to be more efficient. A BIGGER SCREEN – A main factor. I absolutely have to have a larger screen or else I won't be able to design too efficiently. . Things I CAN compromise on: STORAGE – I don't really need much storage since I use online/external drives. BATTERY LIFE – I don't think I need a super extensive battery. Most times I'll be near an outlet so it shouldn't be a problem. I'd rather hit most of the other qualities before getting more battery life. NOTES – I'd only consider getting another Microsoft laptop again if I can find a different warranty provider. I heard Costco is great w/electronic warranties so I may look into that. ...ok I have a confession. I am not an apple lover. I do not like Macs. I know, I know, sacrifice me to the graphic design gods now LMAO. I'm that weirdo that likes PC better. It's mostly because I don't just use my laptop for designing, I play games too like WoW. Don't get me wrong, I understand why people love Macs, I used them for 3 years at community college. But imo their laptops are so goddamned over priced and over hyped. I just cannot bring myself to spend that kind of money when there's better laptops out there for less. So I'd like to stay away from getting an apple laptop if possible. ANY HELP/ADVICE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. Sorry for such a long post, thank you. 💙💜😠[link] [comments] |
USA, the most I think I would spend is 800 but less is preferable Posted: 17 Aug 2019 07:19 PM PDT USA is country, the budget aim is more 500ish but I could probably go up to 800 max The most important thing is specs for my price, battery life would be nice but I don't rlly care about it that much Weight and thinness doesn't matter to me obviously lighter and thinner is better but I really don't care Definitely windows OS N/A for screen size preference Game wise it just needs to run basic games nothing that bad, but I might be using adobe programs All I actually play is like Minecraft and I'd be getting the sims too but I'm not that picky on frame rate honestly all I need is like 12 fps No specific stuff I just want an overall fast and long lasting laptop that's relatively cheap [link] [comments] |
[$1,200] Laptop for school/work and light gaming. Posted: 17 Aug 2019 01:11 PM PDT Total Budget and Country of Purchase: United States of America, and I have $1,200 to use. **Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply.*\* Not a 2 in 1, just a regular laptop. Battery is important, but I would like the most bang for my buck. **How important is weight and thinness to you?*\* Both are important, I will be carrying it around all day. I would like it to be no heaver than 5lb if possible. **Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.*\* Windows 10 **Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.*\* 15" (or small bezels 17") **Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.*\* I will be playing World of Warcraft and Minecraft. **If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?*\* World of Warcraft and Minecraft. I was to hit a consistent 60 FPS on medium settings as a minimum. I do want to play at 1080p too if thats possible. **Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?*\* I will be typing a lot so a good back-lit keyboard is a necessity. I don't care for touch screens or finger-print readers. No optical drive either. This laptop will need to last me 4+ years so a good build-quality is important. **Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.*\* I have built a couple of gaming desktops, however I do not know much about laptops and their ability to game. This computer will be mainly used for school/work and web browsing, but I do want to play WoW and MC. My current laptop is about to die, and I think part of the reason was because it didn't have a dedicated GPU and would consistently get really hot while gaming. So I would like this new laptop to have dedicated graphics. Also, It needs to look as professional as possible, so avoid any RGB lights and big logos. Thank you all for your time! [link] [comments] |
