| Posted: 30 Apr 2020 04:23 PM PDT Hi, I am in Australia and looking for a laptop (not desktop!) that can run ArcGIS Pro - specs required. I would prefer a larger screen size (no specific requirements there), and would like to buy a used/refurbished laptop that will survive my two year masters degree. My budget is maybe $1500 give or take, but I am hoping for the cheapest option that can run this software without crashing. I'd ideally spend a LOT less than that as I'm a poor, self-supporting student, but I can pay whatever is required. A touch-screen would be great, for writing notes on lecture slides. But this is in no way a requirement, and I wouldn't be willing to pay much extra for it. Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for a good reliable laptop for university! Posted: 30 Apr 2020 08:18 AM PDT Hi. So I'm starting university this fall and am in need of a laptop that's reliable, good for studying and would be good at running Minecraft. I don't need a beast that can run the Witcher 3 on max settings tho. I know almost nothing about computers and I don't have a set budget yet, I have no idea how much can a laptop cost. Also I don't know how hard drives work in the sense that I don't know if they can be replaced and changed etc, but 500+GB would be nice. I've heard that SSD is better, but I don't know if laptops have them. If you do stumble across this post and are so kind as to leave your suggestion I'd be very thankful. P.S. I'm not looking for apple products. [link] [comments]  |
| Need basic laptop to do some photoshop for school Posted: 30 Apr 2020 01:27 PM PDT Hi. I'm not too familiar with the differences in laptops and I was hoping someone more knowledgeable could help me out. It would be greatly appreciated. Looking for a computer that can run photoshop without freezing and chrome in the background. I'll also be using it as my daily laptop. I'm looking to stay as budget as possible. I don't mind using something older, refurbished, etc. If that will work. Also, I think I'll need a drawing tablet. Again, I don't need the best one, I just need it to do the basics so I can get through school. Thanks for your help! [link] [comments]  |

| Lenovo Y540, HP Omen 15, or Dell G5? Posted: 30 Apr 2020 03:58 PM PDT Hello, I'm buying a new gaming laptop, but I need help deciding which one to buy, I have 3 Choices: 1- Lenovo Legion Y540 (i7, Nvidia RTX 2060) 2- DELL G5 15-5590 (i7, Nvidia RTX 2060) 3-HP OMEN 15 (i7, Nvidia RTX 2060) The three of them seem pretty similar, but what I really care about is gaming performance and temperatures. Where I live it's usually 30C+ degrees , so overheating is a problem. Also I have had a dell XPS 15 since 2012 and the Nvidia card in it never worked (Shuts down the whole PC when used) so I'm kinda worried this may happen again with Dell. And I heard the HP Omen can get really hot to the point where people can't touch the keyboard which is concerning. Any information is much appreciated. Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 30 Apr 2020 03:39 PM PDT Ok, so I'm thinking of just replacing the logic board, but I don't trust the 2012 boards because they're known to have the issue that I have right now - which is basically works for a little bit then shuts down.....then it might work a day later, but will eventually shut down on its own again. So I'm thinking of maybe just getting a whole 2012 i5 Macbook Pro and switching over the RAM and HDD from my i7 into the i5. Either solution runs about $200. One reason I'm even thinking of getting something 8yrs old is because it's the last Mac laptop to not have RAM soldered into the board and not have the battery glued in place. OR I could wait for a deal on a 2013-2015 Macbook Pro for about $300-350. It's not super common, but I see them often enough that I could most likely snag one for around that price. The only issue here is that they all run on proprietary SSDs, which are expensive (like $150 for 500gb is a good deal). Plus I read they have proprietary "pentagonal" screws, so I'd need to buy a screwdriver specifically for it, which is annoying. So I'd probably be spending closer to $500 since they usually come with 128-256gb SSDs and that's just too small. OR I could of course get a non-Macbook Pro. However everything I see in the under $400 price range just doesn't seem that great. And non-Mac laptops lose their value quicker and I really like the MacOS. I'm interested in Linux, but having a Mac just makes everything easier since I use it for..... .....everything except gaming, so unlike most of the posts here that's not something to worry about. However I do use it for light video and music editing. As an actor I use it to edit taped auditions and short sketches. For the audio side I use it to edit voiceover work and record bass/guitar/vocals for personal projects and friend's music. Currently I use a 2009 Macbook (not pro) that I've fully upgraded to 8gb RAM and can have whatever storage size I want pretty much, and it's totally fine. It doesn't feel slow or anything. I AM, however, currently sitting at MacOS Sierra version 10.12.6 because I've heard upgrading to Catalina (is that the most recent?) messes some things up and/or makes some things not compatible for older Macs. I have no issues right now, but I know some software I use might eventually be incompatible with my Mac, so that's the only real reason I want to upgrade to a newer one. So, with all that in mind, any suggestions that you think would be better than one of the aforementioned Macbook Pros that's less than $400 (after taxes)? [link] [comments]  |

| Assistance needed re: two similar priced laptops! Posted: 30 Apr 2020 03:28 PM PDT Need advice re: 2 prebuilt laptops Hello my friends, I was hoping you guys could help me pick which is the better choice for gaming and using solidworks. The games I mostly play are LOL and Call of Duty. Solid works is for creating and rendering designs. The PCs are as followed: 微星GL63 八代I5 8300H四核 8G内存 128G固态+1T硬盘 GTX1060 6G独显 15.6寸 1080P 屏幕 键盘灯 全国联保 (I5 8300H 4 core, 8gb RAM, 128g ssd + 1tb HDD, GTX1060 6GB, 15.6" screen 1080p) Vs 微星GF63 九代代I7 9750H六核心 8G内存 256G固态硬盘 GTX1650 4G独立显卡 15.6寸 IPS屏幕 红色键盘灯 全国联保 (I7 9750H 6 core, 8gb RAM, 256gb SSD, GTX1650 4GB, 15.6" screen) The latter choice is about $40 more expensive.

| $1250 US -- Light Laptop With Premium Materials That'll Last For Years Posted: 30 Apr 2020 03:27 PM PDT Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: $1250 USD, a bit flexible. US purchase. Are you open to refurbs/used? Refurb is fine if it's mint quality. How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? Regular clamshell laptop. Build quality should be top notch (at least as good as my current MacBook Air). Should have good battery life too. How important is weight and thinness to you? Lightness is a must. Ideally no more than 3 pounds Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 13 to 14 inches. Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Photoshop, whatever random Steam game I got laying around. Not expecting it to be a gaming workhorse, already got a PC for that. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Apex Legends for instance should run at medium 60fps 1080p or something, I dunno. Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Good keyboard, touchpad should be great, at least somewhat close to a MacBook's. IPS screen is also a must. Top build quality is a must, however touchscreen, fingerprint readers, drives and IO ports aren't very important. If possible, 16GB RAM as well. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I love my MacBook Air, but it is 5 years old with a TN screen, a crappy dual-core i5 and 4 GB of RAM. It's been choking a lot recently. I was eyeing the upcoming MacBook Pro, but with the uncertainty regarding Apple's transition to ARM I figured I might as well jump ship before I get a computer that's rendered obsolete in like two years.

| Posted: 30 Apr 2020 11:37 AM PDT Hi Reddit, I'm not very computer savvy and I have to very quickly get a laptop and I've narrowed it down to 2. The Acer Nitro 5: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07C715KNT/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A133XRPP18G6HD&psc=1 And the Dell G3 15: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07C9J1PY6/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A30EPR1Q8JVZG5&psc=1 I'd like any input on either computer or if you have a better suggestion for one. In theory I wanted a gaming laptop around $800 and my budget is pretty tight, the 2 games I'd like to play would be the sims4 & Skyrim (single player games with pretty graphics). Thanks guys [link] [comments]  |

| Laptop for basic work + emulation [$500-$800 USD] Posted: 30 Apr 2020 03:05 PM PDT Apologies for the formatting - I'm on mobile. Hence why I need a laptop. LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: $500-$800; United States
Should be comfortable. Don't want a touch screen. Battery life is a plus, but this will be for home use. I don't want something that feels cheap.
Won't be traveling with it much, especially now. But I don't want anything too big and clunky.
N/A
Some gaming. No major MMOs or anything.
I'd like to be able to emulate up through Gen 6. Medium settings.
I'd like a decent webcam. Solid keyboard is a plus.
I've had crappy $200 student laptops my whole life. I'd like something a little nicer. $500-$800 is where I'd like to be, budget wise. I can afford to go higher if it's worth it, but I'm not looking for anything too premium. [link] [comments]  |

| Dell G3 a good budget gaming choice? Posted: 30 Apr 2020 02:54 PM PDT I'm planning on getting a new laptop to replace my very old one that died recently. I want something for light to mid gaming (probably XCOM 2, BF4, and some older games) and casual use that I can take to college when I start that in the fall. I've seen several different models recommended but the one I've looked at most strongly is the Dell G3 3590. The one I was looking at is the model with the following specs: -Dell G3 15 3590 laptop -9th Generation Intel® Core™ i5-9300 core -Windows 10 64-bit English -NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1650 4GB GDDR -8GB 2x4GB DDR4 2666MHz RAM -128GB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive (Boot) + 1TB 5400 rpm 2.5" SATA Hard Drive (Storage) After speaking to a Dell sales rep, the quote I received was about $700 before tax. Would this be a good choice for what I'm looking for? I've heard about a few downsides to these Dells. I'm not to worried about the lower quality screen in them but am concerned about overheating/cooling problems. If this is not a good buy, what are some better options in a similar price range?

On a full charge, it needs to last at least 5-6 hours. Needs to be fast enough for gaming at 60 fps on medium to high settings on games like R6, Assassins creed, other triple A games and shooters. Slim bezels
Weight isnt too much of an issue but I would like a relatively thin laptop.
15 inches minimun
Will be used mostly for gaming. I want to be able to games like R6, Assassins creed, tomb raider, and other triple A games at around 60+fps using medium to high settings
60+ fps at medium to high settinga
Decent keyboard would be much aporeciated
I would like somethins that doesn't scream "im a gamer". Something low profile like the design of the lenovo legion y540 is ideal :)) (note: lenovo legion y540 is one of my choices would just like some more recommendations) [link] [comments]  |
| Suggest a refurbished business class laptop Posted: 30 Apr 2020 02:52 PM PDT Hello guys I hope you can help me out picking a refurbished business class laptop in the jungle that is used laptops :) ( To be noted, I currently have a Thinkpad X220 and have been quite happy about it. It is swift and quite reliable. The only things I do not like about it is the noise and the heating and also a bug in the HDD 2-3 times a year which causes a failure in startup... So that is my convern with any future Thinkpads) What will I be using the laptop for?
I have basically more or less narrowed it down to these 5 options but am obviously open to other ideas aswell**. These 5 options are simply a guideline as to what I am looking towards:**
Have in mind that the price of each of these 5 machines are more or less the same ( around 500 USD) The various grades from A to C indicate the shape of the used machine. It is of minor importance to me, so you guys can take it into consideration in case it can tip the scale in favor of one over another. If any of you are experts on refurbished business laptops, please share your opinion. Also, if you have other suggestions. Also if any of you have any experience with each of these, let me know. Thank you in advance! All help is recieved and much obliged :) [link] [comments]  |

| Looking for a thin and light under $1100 USA Posted: 30 Apr 2020 10:43 AM PDT LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: 1100USD But really trying to stay under 1k. Are you open to refurbs/used? No thank you. How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? Portability/build quality are key, secondary would be performance in a bang for buck way. How important is weight and thinness to you? Semi important, as long as its a 13ish in or smaller. Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. above Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. A little bit of offline gaming while traveling. I play older games like KOTOR, Fallout NV, Rome Total War. The most it'd be asked to do is play civ 5 for a while on a long flight. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Fine with low settings at 30+fps. Just want to play without crashing or severe fps drops. Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? The more I/O the better. Needs a headphone jack. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I am mostly gonna be using the laptop for schoolwork, word/ppt/excel and some school programs for online tests. Secondary would be minor gaming while traveling. I want enough performance that it wouldn't be a headache to play low tier games. I found these 2 that seem to fit the bill but I'm having a hard time figuring out what their potential gaming performance would be like. https://www.microcenter.com/product/512768/asus-zenbook-13-ux333fa-dh51-133-laptop-computer---blue https://www.microcenter.com/product/610877/microsoft-surface-laptop-3-135---sandstone Any and all help is appreciated!
