| Posted: 13 Aug 2019 01:04 AM PDT so i am going to college in 3 months and my relative lives in usa. Budget:1800$ i want to buy a laptop that can at least any upcoming intensive game at aleast 60 fps avg.plus i need it to be thin as i need it for potability.i really don't need that thin like mac ,razor blade or the stealth series.just something that i can take to my college.battery life at least 2-3 hour watching movies .hope you can suggest me a laptop [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 12 Aug 2019 06:32 PM PDT I'm having a difficult time choosing between the two. They are same price. Both are 144hz monitors and all the other features are more or less the same, the main difference being the hard disk size 512GB SSD (Y540) vs 1TB 7200rpm HDD + 526GB SSD (Y545) If I get the Y545 then I can get an extended two year warranty for free. On the other hand, I read that the the Y545 has some throttling and overheating issues. Can anyone recommend one of these deals or suggest a better current deal? [link] [comments]  |
| I need a new laptop for school! (USA, $800-900; 13-14 inches) Posted: 12 Aug 2019 10:45 PM PDT Hello! My current laptop is dying after a good 4 years (rip Invincible :( ) Also, I'm on mobile so I hope I got the form right. Total budget and country of purchase - Preferred:800-900; Country of Purchase: 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. - Best specifications for the price and battery life are both pretty important to me. How important is weight and thinness to you? -Weight is important to me as I will be carrying my future laptop on my back and to several different places. Which OS do you require? -Windows, please! Do you have a preferred screen size? -Ideal: 13- 14 inches Are you doing any CAD/ Video dieting/ Photo Editing/ gaming? List which programs/ games you desire to run. -Yes. I'd like to be able to run Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign and PremierPro. As for the games, I don't think I'll be running anything too heavy on it? The heaviest games I can think of are probably FFVII/ Child of Light/ Don't Starve Together? Also Streamlabs. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? -As this is a portable option, I don't mind playing games at medium quality. Just as long as I can play them without wanting to rip my hair out because of how slowly things are moving, I'll be fine. Any specific requirements such as a good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices? -I'm going to be doing a lot of writing so I think would like a good keyboard (although, I'm curious. What does a good laptop keyboard look/ feel like?). A backlit keyboard would be pretty cool but it isn't necessary in the slightest. I don't need a touch screen, fingerprint reader or optical drive but I'd like to have an HDMI port and at least 2 USB ports (it has admittedly been a while since I've been in the market for a laptop so I just want to be sure/ specific.) I would also like for the computer to last a while. I'm not particularly clumsy so there won't be any accidental spills or death drops. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel necessary and beneficial to the discussion? -I'd really like to have a lot of a storage/ memory. I browsed through a couple of models in a few big box stores and was a little shocked at the storage options. I think my current/dying laptop (Acer R3-417- 54T1) was like 512gb? (I almost want to say it was 8/900 gb but I'm not 100% certain). At the very least, I know it was more than 256 gb which is what I saw at the store. The people who worked there assured me that the trade off for the storage was that it would be SSD. A friend who is way more tech-savvy than I am told me to look for something with an HDD. From what I've read, something with a mix is good? I think? Not quite sure. Either way, I would definitely appreciate help in looking for something to replace my laptop. Thanks a ton! :D [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for a gaming/drawing laptop! Posted: 13 Aug 2019 01:53 AM PDT Good day! I've been looking into getting a Surface (or other 2-in-1) for a while now with the intention of getting into drawing, plus using it for other productivity-based programs (The Adobe suite, for example). But, I also love gaming and have built several desktops for it in the past. I'd like to potentially see if there's anything out there that brings both worlds together. The ideal laptop I'm looking for would have the following traits: -At least a GTX 1060 -A better than average battery life -A good panel with above average color accuracy -1080p 120hz+ preferably -Pen support (And good pen support, not something with bad accuracy) -A decent keyboard I can't seem to find anything, but I figured a few extra minds helping me out wouldn't be such a bad idea. I'm personally not a stickler about looks, thickness or weight, so that won't be a huge issue as long as it's not an inch thick. Also, I don't have a set budget as I'm not strapped for cash at the moment, but obviously less expensive always gets bonus points. It would also be worthwhile to note that I haaaaate external drawing tablets, I'd much rather draw on the screen itself. Thanks in advance! If you have any questions, feel free to ask :) [link] [comments]  |
| Torn between a gaming and a business laptop Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:17 PM PDT I do a lot of development, VMs, oracle installation, so I need a beast. Occasional gaming CoD, BF etc. Always use an external monitor Dell Ultrasharp U2715H unless I am in some cafe browsing reddit. I am looking for a i9-9980H(K) probably? I don't mind if the video card is not the best, 1650 would do I guess... 64 max RAM is a bonus.
$2200 US or EU, I will be forwarding to my country then
best specifications
not important
Windows
15.6"
Oracle database, development in Visual Studio, occasional gaming CoD, Battlefield and similar
CoD, Battlefiel not sure about FPS tbh
best NVMe like Samsung 970 EVO Pro or similar. Or possibility to upgrade later. 64 Max RAM would be nice, but I guess I will be fine with 32 GB for the next 2-3 years of laptop life.

| Laptop for Productivity + Light Gaming | Lenovo L340 or Y540 or ??? Posted: 13 Aug 2019 01:25 AM PDT Details at the bottom
Preferably less than $1k, USA
Best specifications for the money
I'd prefer to be lightweight, since I'll be moving around most of the time.
Windows
Preferably 15"
Light gaming. Will be studying most of the time.
The time i'm not studying, I'll be playing DotA 2 | 60+ fps medium settings. |
Here is the catch. I'm really peaky with build quality. I'd like for it to look stylish and a narrow bezel display. Plus, lenovo is the brand that I like. Not a fan of Acer and HP.
The truth is I don't even know which graphics card to choose, or which is the right one. I was thinking on getting the Lenovo L340 15 " Gaming, with the i7-9750H + GTX 1050 3GB, 1TB HDD w/o SSD for $770 USD. There is the i7-9750H + GTX 1650 4GB, No HDD w/ 256GB SDD. It got the stylish look that I'm looking for, but I'm not sure if is the best for my money. There is the Lenovo Y540, the cheapest of all with a i7-9750H + GTX 1650 4GB, 1TB HDD + 256GB SSD for $900. I wish I could go for the 1660Ti but I can't go over budget :(. Narrow bezel display, made out of plastic (which worries me), not a fan of the trackpad, not sure if it truly looks stylish irl. You can suggest any other laptop as well, I'm open to suggestions. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Want an amazing gaming laptop, need help please! Posted: 13 Aug 2019 01:13 AM PDT So I travel a decent amount so having a laptop just work outs a lot better for me. I'm not too worried about a budget but obviously want the best bang for buck. I love to play heavy modded Skyrim, Fallout, CoD, looking forward to Destiny when it comes out on Steam, Monster Hunter World, Overwatch, MK11 all types of games like that and I'd love to play on High at 60 FPS if possible. I currently have a laptop with a 1050TI and I should have just went all out when I purchashed my laptop but I don't know a lot so that's why I need help please. Any recommendations is appreciated and like I said don't worry about posting any amazing laptop despite the price. If it's worth it I'll pay extra! Thank you * **Total budget and country of purchase:** Budget does not matter and 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.** Decent battery life and just a good bang for your buck * **How important is weight and thinness to you?** Weight is not important and neither is thinness * **Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.** Windows is required * **Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.** Minimum of 15.6" * **Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.** I plan on gaming with it and some editing through blender and nifskope * **If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?** I play a lot of RPG's, FPS's, I love Skyrim, GTA, Monster Hunter World as for examples of types of games I play * **Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?** A good touch pad would be nice, the one on my laptop has been getting a lot of wear on it already * **Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.** As stated before I just care about a really good all around laptop with a great graphics card and specs to run most of my games at 60FPS as best as possible. I don't know too much about the differences between the 1060 to 2060 or 1070 to 2070 comparing GTX to RTX so any advice and recommendations is appreciated! [link] [comments]  |
| MacBook Air 13 vs Asus ZenBook 13 UX331FN vs Xiaomi Mi Air Posted: 13 Aug 2019 04:24 AM PDT Hello everyone! So I am looking for a 13,3"-14" inch ultrabook that is suitable for graphic design and photo editing (I am mostly talking about PS, Illustrator, InDesign, Lightroom... maybe some light CAD and videoediting). You will see what my preferences are in the form, but these are my options so far. Xiaomi Mi Air 13,3" (Intel Core i5-8250U 1.6GHz ,Nvidia GeForce MX150, 8GB DDR4, 256GB SSD) - I really like the design of this notebook and the fact that it has a dedicated GPU. Not sure if it is worth the money. I am guessing that this should be a good choice if I care a lot about appearances. Apple MacBook Air 13 Mid 2017 (Intel Core i5-5350U 1.8 GHz, 8GB DDR3, Intel HD 6000, 128GB SSD) - I am afraid this notebook just doesn't brings enough to the table and won't be able to perform the tasks I would like to do on my notebook. I was told that it might have serious problems when working on bigger projects and is not designed for graphical work (also for the price of his notebook, I could choose the others that have better specifications. Unfortunately I can't afford a Macbook Pro). Even though Mac is the standard in the industry I am not sure whether this would be the right choice. Asus Zenbook 13 UX331FN (Intel Core i5-8265U 1.60GHz, 8GB DDR3, NVIDIA GeForce MX150, 256GB SSD) - This one would be my go to choice as it has (in my opinion) a really good price/value, but it is not as beautiful as the previously mentioned notebooks. Some general concerns about graphic design that I would like you to answer (sorry if this misses the sub, just ignore it): Which is the acceptable color coverage for graphic design laptops (both sRGB and aRGB)? Will it be really hard to work on a 13,3" laptop and should I later on buy a separate screen? Is a 2in1 laptop a huge advantage in designing or not really? All in all, what would be your go to laptop (feel free to pick one that is not on my list)? Total budget and country of purchase: cca. 1000 USD, Croatia/Hungary 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 would like to have a decent battery life, but it is not my highest priority. How important is weight and thinness to you? I really want in to be portable, so a thin and lightweight laptop would be ideal for me. Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Mac or Windows Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 13,3"-14" Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Already listed above, but I would like to do photo editing, graphic designing a bit of CAD (Adobe programs) If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? 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)? It would be nice to have a card reader (not microSD but SD), a reliable build would be nice but I dont have really high expectations from an ultrabook in this price range. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I listed everything above. Thank you for helping me. [link] [comments]  |

| Need recommendations on where to get a used Macbook Posted: 12 Aug 2019 07:31 PM PDT My girlfriend is going to be taking a few classes in the next few semesters and is dead set on a Mac. Please don't suggest getting a PC, I've tried and it just leads to arguments. My question is what is the best way to go about getting a used MacBook (looking to spend about 500) that will be generally reliable for the next two years or so. I'd also be interested to know if there's the ability to fix these as she's always taken them into the Apple store and had Apple Care. As far as I've been informed they won't fix anything that wasn't bought from their store. Edit: Form

| £500, UK - looking for a portable laptop, not a netbook Posted: 13 Aug 2019 02:13 AM PDT Hi there! I would totally follow the Quick Picks or the Lappy List, but I can't find exact equivalents for the under-£500 ones inside the UK! Just translating those to the UK would be enough for me :) I have a netbook currently, and it just can't handle what I'm trying to do, so just looking for a machine to upgrade to.

| Posted: 12 Aug 2019 07:46 PM PDT Hey guys, Been trying to do my due diligence and came across this deal online. It looks like it has the processor, ram, and SSD needed to be a solid machine for the next few years all for under $400. As someone who is coming up to speed on all the options, what do you guys think? For web browsing, word processing, Excel, and general home/office use how does this laptop stack up? https://www.costco.com/.product.1349813.html Seems like a steal for the price, but figured I'd defer to those more knowledgeable. Here's my survey: Total budget and country of purchase: $600, U.S Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Best specs for the money with 6 or more hours of battery life How important is weight and thinness to you? I'm hoping for something in the 13-14 inch size range, and as a result something weighing 3-4lbs or less Which OS do you require? Windows Do you have a preferred screen size? 13-14 inches Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run: Mainly using the computer for Microsoft Office, Web Browsing, and Media viewing. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? I I really don't game hardly ever, but I'd likely be satisfied with low settings on most games. 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 hoping to find something reliable/advanced enough to last a few years. A good keyboard and something with high brightness/high res screen would also be nice. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion: In general, I'm looking for something with an i5/Ryzen 5 processor, with at least 8 GB of ram and a 128 GB SSD. I figure I can upgrade the memory/SSD later if needed. Thanks, [link] [comments]  |

| Laptop for work- US - screen=13-15", budget=USD$1000 Posted: 12 Aug 2019 09:10 PM PDT It's time for a new work (life) laptop. Here are the options my boss gave me: I have used a 2011 13" Macbook Pro for the past 8 years without a single issue, only a minor hardware upgrade a few years ago. I felt like I spent my life savings on it at the time, yet it was worth every penny. Mr. Reliable. Now it is 2019. I've used Mac my whole computing life (20yrs), but I'm good enough with computers that I can manage on Windows if I must. But is it time to convert to a Windows user? I know the HP model above has better specs....but is it a quality machine that will hold up, never let me down, let me work with 10 excel spreadsheets and 10 word documents and 30 internet tabs open a the same time? I never got a single virus on my Mac, is that still an issue with Windows? The 2-in-1 feature is an enigma to me. I've only ever used my phone by touch (never owned a tablet), so it seems like a feature I never knew I needed or wanted in a laptop. Will I really use my laptop to handwrite notes in a meeting and convert to typed notes? I don't draw or edit for my job, so do I really need it? I know the Windows devises have more port choices, but I'm pretty used to the dongle game being a mac user. Once you pimp out your office desk with your favorite accessories or adapters, is it really that big of a deal? Am I putting up with ridiculous inflexibility with my Mac?

| A work laptop that can play Starcraft 2? Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:51 PM PDT I am looking for a laptop for my boyfriend for his Birthday. He is a classic buisnessman type, and really needs a new work laptop that he can use for his projects (nothing too intensive, just for Microsoft Word, Excel, etc). He is also really into video games, and while I atleast know laptops aren't as good as PCs for them, I would love it if it could atleast play Starcraft 2 and support 1080p. I don't have the most money, and while I don't want it to be a bad laptop, but if there is something below $300 I would really appreciate it. [link] [comments]  |
