    Why are the laptops with AMD processors so fucking terrible? Where do I look?

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 07:41 PM PDT

    I can't find many or any at all with a 2060gtx, a decent screen, and 16gig ram. The screen and overall build quality are either horrible or the graphics card is 1660ti at most.

    Am I missing something or can someone point me in the right direction?

    EDIT: Sorry for the curse word and thanks for the suggestions and tips.

    Looking for Gaming Laptop - in need of suggestions

    Posted: 30 Jun 2020 02:46 AM PDT

    I don't know a lot about gaming laptops so I was looking for advice. I want a laptop with pretty much no faults. Good graphics, no glitches, lots of storage and able to run multiple softwares/games with mods etc. My friend suggested Alienware but I'm looking for other suggestions too or a specific Alienware computer which will be the best. I haven't got a budget so don't worry about pricing. If you have any suggestions then let me know! : -)

    Suggest me the better laptop for Gaming

    Posted: 30 Jun 2020 01:04 AM PDT

    Asus Tuf gaming fx505DT (ryzen 5 GTX 1650) vs Acer Nitro 5 AN515-54 (Intel i5-9th gen GTX 1650)

    Prices of both are almost the same. Now if I plan to play the current games like AC Odessey, Cyberpunk 2077, Red dead redemption 2, which one will be better?

    Too confused.

    P.S My only purpose is gaming.

    HP Envy 360 with Amd 4500u vs 4700u

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 06:30 PM PDT

    Going to be getting a new laptop for phototshop and illustrator. Maybe some light video editing. I've been looking at Best Buy and it seems like these are pretty much exactly the same thing besides one has at slightly better processor. Not a huge computer guy so is the extra money really worth it for better processor? These are the two different models

    750$ - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-envy-x360-2-in-1-15-6-touch-screen-laptop-amd-ryzen-7-8gb-memory-512gb-ssd-nightfall-black/6403435.p?skuId=6403435

    Need help deciding between two Asus laptops. Which processor is better? i5-10210u vs. R7-3700U QC

    Posted: 30 Jun 2020 03:04 AM PDT

    I'm soon starting an ux design degree and I will need a laptop for that. I'll be using Adobe xd, Figma, will be online a lot. Will NOT game on it.

    So far I've picked two favourites but I need help because I don't know that much about hardware and processors.

    Asus ASUS ZenBook 15" UX562FA-AC103T

    Intel® Core™ i5-10210U (up to 4,2GHz, 6MB Cache) Quad-Core

    16GB DDR4 + 512GB Highspeed PCIe SSD

    Intel® UHD 620 onboard graphics, Windows® 10 Home

    Asus Zen Book 14" UM433DA-A5031T

    AMD Ryzen™ R7-3700U QC (up to 4,0 GHz)

    (14") Full HD Wide-View NanoEdge-Display (1920 x 1080)

    16GB DDR4 (RAM)

    1000GB SSD

    Quad core

    Is the i7 processor better than the i5 or can I just go with the i5 one...

    My favourite one size- and display wise, is definitely the zenbook 15".

    Would be thankful for some help :)

    Architecture student looking for gaming laptop for school works like CAD and 3D softwares

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 07:14 PM PDT

    LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE

    • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:

      Philippines, about PHP80,000 but can go higher than budget if necessary

    • Are you open to refurbs/used?

      No

    • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?

      Priority performance but decent battery life would be nice. Need good cpu, ram, and dedicated graphics card. Preferably gaming laptop.

      Intel i7 or equivalent. Nvidia Gtx 1660ti or higher. 8gb or more RAM

    • How important is weight and thinness to you?

      Somewhat. I might have to bring my laptop to school in certain occassions though i may not need to all the time. As an architecture student,i might carry alot of stuff depending on what day it is.

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.

      About 15"

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.

      I am an Architecture student. I will run apps like AutoCAD, Revit, Sketchup and 3d apps such as Blender, lumion, etc.

    I want to get into digital art. Photoshop, lightroom, Illustrator

    Color accurate screen

    Webcam due to online classes.

    Avoiding the "gamer aesthetic", but could go for it as last resort.

    Looking for a gaming laptop because those have the specs i need. The seniors in my campus usually suggest this to freshmen or sophomores.

    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.

    Well, im open to other suggestions thats why i wrote the form.

    Well currently im looking into Lenovo Legion y540 and Lenovo Legion 5i. The y540 has a nose cam and im not sure if thats could be a bit of a nuisance to tilt the screen so your face will be in a better angle

    The legion 5 is not yet available in my country and has higher specs but the only iteration they are selling for preorder is the one with the 120Hz 250 nits screen which isnt really color accurate.

    I dont know if i should wait. I kinda can, i dont need to use softwares yet. But i kinda need it since i might have to share with my sisters on our desktop at home with online classes.

    Looking for a college laptop

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 10:08 AM PDT

    Hi! I am writing this post on a 2012 Dell Latitude E6230 which is becoming more and more difficult to use so I am looking to change it with a newer bussiness laptop.

    • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
      Budget is around 1000 USD but I am willing to add maybe 100 more since this will be a laptop that i plan on using for at least 4 years.
    • Are you open to refurbs/used?
      Yes, I'd much rather get it used since I get to save some money that way.
    • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
      I would prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, battery life is very important, 16gb of ram is a must, i5 or i7 at least 8th gen, also build quality is important since I will be taking this laptop in my backpack on a daily basis.
    • How important is weight and thinness to you?
      This is very important, I would want it to be under 1,5kg ( around 3 pounds i think ), and pretty thin.
    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
      Between 13 and 14 inch, I find that 15,6 inch is too big for me.
    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
      I won't be doing any gaming, it will mostly be used for media consumption (hence the 2 in 1 design ) and for school work ( I'm a computer science student )
    • 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)?
      Port selection would be at least one usb c port and one regular usb port, fingerprint reader would be nice but it is optional. Screen should go to at least 300 nits although 400-500 is preffered since i will be using this laptop outside or in coffee shops, also I'm pretty used to my laptop which gets to around 100 degrees on heavy load but I would like to avoid such high temperatures.

    Help me decide between these 15 inch US Laptops (Budget $1200-1800)

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 07:04 PM PDT

    Total budget

    Up to $1800. Ideally less than $1500 USD.

    Are you open to refurbs/used?

    If you all feel that a refurb will not hurt me long term, I'm open to it!

    How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?

    Performance (for me this includes the laptop not being loud frequently), battery life, form factor, build quality.

    I just want something that can reliably run Premiere Pro while also lasting at least 8 hours (Not at the same time. I want to be able to work from a coffee shop but then plugin and be able to render a video).

    How important is weight and thinness to you?

    Decently important. I'm coming from an X1 Yoga but I don't need it to be that thin or light. Quite frankly I'd rather it not be because I don't want a computer that is very loud or hot (when not editing video or similar strenuous tasks).

    Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.

    15 at least

    Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.

    Right now I run Illustrator but plan on running Premiere Pro very soon. Honestly, my chrome usage is what slows most things down right now. Don't plan on gaming.

    Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?

    Ideally metal and a glass trackpad. The way the carbon fiber and trackpad of the Dell picked up oil was gross (understanding that I'm gross for being that oily lol)

    Also very ideally want to have ports (mainly HDMI and at least 1 USB-A) without having to get a dongle.

    Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.

    Okay so I already bought and returned the:

    XPS 7590 (https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/cty/pdp/spd/xps-15-7590-laptop) and

    HP Spectre 360x 15 (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-spectre-x360-2-in-1-15-6-4k-ultra-hd-touch-screen-laptop-intel-core-i7-16gb-memory-geforce-mx330-512gb-ssd-nightfall-black/6406695.p?skuId=6406695&ref=212&loc=1&extStoreId=146&ref=212&loc=1&ds_rl=1260576&gclid=Cj0KCQjwoub3BRC6ARIsABGhnybQ-qoedQyc7CdE1U605Nx9WsS84NWe5sWXSFmjfXryl10W6Y9bcBsaAoTvEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds)

    I wasn't a big fan of Dell's keyboard and hated how dirty the inside surfaces got even after a few days. It was also stuttered a few times in performance but that could've been because I didn't update everything. I'm open to the 9500 (https://www.dell.com/en-us/member/shop/laptops/new-15/spd/xps-15-9500-laptop) but still don't see myself enjoying the typing experience and how dirty it will get.

    The HP Spectre runs super hot and the fans are really loud for no reason. Plus I haven't been impressed with the battery life at all.

    I've considered the Razer Blade 15 but 4 hours of battery is just not going to cut it. Also interested in the X1 Extreme. Feel like the 9500 or the X1 Extreme second gen are my top options right now. It's unfortunate that neither of those have a number pad.

    I know I've been naming the flagships for each of these companies but I'm open to other options. I don't need the thinnest solution or the best name brand.

    Surface Go 2 Alternative?

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 11:54 PM PDT

    My old man needs a light-weight laptop in the $600-$700 range. He's not exactly in the US so prices are gonna vary so a recommendation on the lower end of that range is preferred.

    His workflow is just emails, word docs, and a ton of excel (pretty big files, and macros). He's currently looking at the Surface Go 2 with the core m3 configuration. I honestly can't recommend him doing that, but at the same time I can't provide him with alternatives since I don't know much about laptops. Any help is much appreciated.

    • Total budget (In local currency) and country of purchase: $700 / 10,000,000 IDR

    • Are you open to refurbs/used? Nope

    • How would you prioritize form factor, build quality, performance, and battery life? Form factor and battery life. Performance doesn't have to be blazing fast, he just doesn't want his laptop to freeze often.

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 13" ish

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. emails, word docs, and a ton of excel (pretty big files, and macros)

    • 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, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? A good screen, and a good trackpad. Screen is probably higher up the list of priority though.

    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. Looking for >7hrs of battery life.

    Is this upgrade worth it?

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 11:48 PM PDT

    First of all, I don't know shit about computers so don't be too harsh on me here!

    I want to know how much of an upgrade I will be getting from my current MacBook Air, to the MacBook Pro 16-inch. Since I don't know terms or what things mean, here are the descriptions:

    • MacBook Air (13-Inch, 8GB RAM, 128GB Storage, 1.6GHz Intel Core i5)
    • MacBook Pro (16-Inch, 2.6GHz 6-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 4.5GHz, with 12MB shared L3 cache)

    Is the upgrade worth it $2.4K?

    Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 vs HP Envy x360

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 11:31 PM PDT

    The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 seems to have better specs for the same price, but I'm worried the build quality and keyboard will be worse. Does anyone here have any experience with these two?
