| Posted: 24 Feb 2021 09:48 PM PST So I am not a tech person, but ever since the oandemic everything goes online, and I need a new laptoo. I am a college student (law school, so nothing to complicated for programs and stuff). I have a lenovo yogabook that works like shit. It used to work finw but after just 2 years it is gone to not working properly. It will get rebooted every few hours go hy and it will delete all my info. Also the fact that the keyboard is digital is exhausting for typing long documents which I do pretty much always. I ended up buying a bluetooth keyboard but it gets disconnected so easily because the laptop wont work. I am tired of having to switch devices every 2 years, I know a laptop needs to last longer, especially when I really dont overwork them. So I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a new computer for me. I dont own any apple products so no IOS for me. Thanks for listening to my rant.... I am just so annoyed by this thing I want to break it every morning I start school or work [link] [comments]  |

| Need a laptop for my PhD I can also game on (approx. £1200, UK) Posted: 24 Feb 2021 08:23 AM PST Hi everyone, here's the questionnaire below. Hope you can help me! I thought I'd found the perfect machine (Acer Predator Triton 300) but I just bought and returned two in a row because both had faulty batteries to the extent that the laptop would crash even while plugged in… so I'm looking for an alternative.
£1000-£1200 (up to £1400 Dell because of the 20% student discount), UK
No
In this order: Performance, Build quality, Battery life, Form Factor.
Not that important.
Yes, 14-16 inches.
Photo editing (Adobe Lightroom), occasional video editing, occasional gaming.
Up to now I've played games like things like Skyrim, Bioshock, The Sims etc. but I'd like to do more gaming on the new laptop, since it's my tech that's holding me back at the moment. I don't know anything about FPS.
Has to have a good keyboard, inbuilt webcam, and 2 USB ports. Also, ideally an HDMI port. 1 TB storage. Min. 16 GB RAM.
I don't know much about processors, or the difference between SSD or HDD, or graphics cards. I'm a PhD student so this laptop will get basically constant use. I want it to be fast, I want to watch Netflix and I want to be able to play some games on it. I always use external speakers so the speakers really don't matter. It will likely mainly live on a desk – the only time I'll be using its battery is if it follows me to the kitchen for an hour while I cook, or to the library or a cafe for a few hours. Battery life is not important to me, nor is it being particularly light. That said, I need it to be able to fit into my backpack so 17 inches is too big. I want this laptop to last me a good few years, so good build quality is really important to me. I would prefer a metal chassis, but not that fussy. Excited and grateful for your thoughts.

| Portable laptop for college and gaming Posted: 24 Feb 2021 09:47 PM PST Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
Are you open to refurbs/used?
How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
How important are weight and thinness to you?
Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?
Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?
Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.

| Looking for new laptop £500 budget Posted: 25 Feb 2021 12:41 AM PST Like title says my old one finally bit the dust so in the market. My main wants, Nice Design, Slick form factor, Portable, SSD. Not fussed about screen size, I have large monitors at mine and my partners house so I can just hdmi it up if I wanna watch something that being said 14" night be the sweet spot. Specs wise it doesn't matter too much as this is just for general life stuff, browsing internet, watching stuff, work stuff. I have a desktop to game. So not really a factor. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 24 Feb 2021 10:10 PM PST LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE
I'm targeting a budget of around $700 USD in the US, but as previously stated, I'm willing to go higher if I need to, or lower if possible. $1000 USD is my absolute max, but I'd really like to avoid that.
I'm open to refurbs if they're from somewhere reputable, but I'd prefer to avoid used.
I would rather have a more traditional style laptop. I'm not interested in 2-in-1's, so I'd prefer no touch screens. I would say build quality and performance are my two priorities. I almost always have access to power outlets so battery life isn't as much of a concern for me. My school work is not hardware intensive at all so when I say performance I mean for games, however if at all possible I'd prefer something that doesn't look "gamery" in it's build quality.
I'm fine with any weight, and thickness doesn't really bother me either within reason.
I'd probably prefer less than a 17". Maybe around 14"-15" if possible?
I'll be playing Diablo 3, WOW (retail and classic), minecraft, and maybe a few other multiplayer games like CSGO/Gmod and some indies. Also for what it's worth, I plan on playing the upcoming Diablo 2 Resurrected,
The games I plan on playing are Diablo 3, WOW, CSGO/Gmod, Minecraft, and maybe some indies in the same vain as Terraria. I'd like to be able to play at 1080p 60fps, at about medium ish settings. As long as it can be played at 1080p smoothly at something around medium I'll probably be happy. I have a desktop at home for the high settings so I'm not gonna be a stickler about maxing things out as long as it can play games smoothly.
Id like a decent keyboard but I'll probably use a wireless mouse so the trackpad isn't a huge deal to me. Also, I'm really hoping to find something that does scream "gamer" so if you all know of any options that look just like a regular laptop those suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Other than that I'm hoping to find something with reasonably ridgid build quality if possible.
I really appreciate y'all's help! I'm not sure what exactly I'll be able to find in my desired price range of around $700 USD. If money was no object this would be a much simpler choice, but a lot of my money is already going into a new desktop build once my tax return hits, so I'm hoping to find something a little more inexpensive to use while I'm on the go. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Looking for a laptop or a 2in1 Posted: 25 Feb 2021 04:07 AM PST Obligatory im not a tech person warning. I've never had a nice computer, I've never had a computer that wasn't a second hand dinosaur. My old one dropped off the back of the couch and the screen shattered. (It had a short charger and it was the only place it could reach for me to put it down) I wasn't going to buy a new one because all I do is some light gaming, but my boyfriend suggest a 2 in 1 that I can use as a drawing tablet as well. So I dont need something super heavy duty, I don't stream or anything. I just need something that can run a few small steam games, house flipper, thief simulator etc. But the big one is Sims 3, and several expansions. If there is a 2 in 1 that has good specs for games, and could double as a tablet for a beginner digital artist, that's what I'm looking for. If a gaming 2 in 1 tablet doesn't exist, just a clam shell that won't break the bank. I dont care a whole lot about battery life, since my laptop never leaves my house. I occasional discord D&D so I need a webcam, but I can sacrifice that if needed, because I have discord on my phone. I'd dont need a huge screen, but enough of a work space to draw I have a wireless mouse, so a cramped mouse pad doesn't bother me. I dont wanna spend more that $700-800 but i will if I need to, but obviously id be very happy with spending less if it got me everything I needed. If I left anything out please ask, and if anyone has any recommendations please let me know. [link] [comments]  |

| Lenovo Legion 5, AMD or Intel? Posted: 25 Feb 2021 03:32 AM PST I am planning to buy the Lenovo Legion 5, of the models that are available in my country, the one with an AMD Ryzen 7 has an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB graphics card, and the one with the Intel processor, has an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB graphics card. They both are being sold for the same price. My understanding is that AMD processors are better than Intel ones, but the RTX 2060 is better than the 1660 Ti. I want to use the laptop to do things like video editing, 3D modelling and 3D model rendering, graphic design, and product design. Which model should I go for? [link] [comments]  |

| Searching for a "pocket" laptop/drawing tablet hybrid(8 - 11", US, $1400) Posted: 25 Feb 2021 02:41 AM PST LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE
$1400 USD, US (ofc).
I think so? As long as I can assure it's going to be fully functional and not die in a year or two.
Form factor > Build Quality > Performance > Battery Life, but they're all kind of important really. Form Factor: I think it's called a 2-in-1 Convertible? I'm not super familiar with these kind of laptops but I believe that's what they're called. Where the hinge can flip all the way so that the keyboard is behind the screen? I imagine that's rather essential to be able to draw on it. Speaking of which, one that comes with a stylus (or leaves enough money left-over in the budget to purchase a stylus it is compatible with) and is good for drawing/writing. Build Quality: I accidentally cracked my HP Stream 11. It feels like cheap plastic. I don't really know much about how build quality materials work but I'd like it to... not do that if possible. (The HP Stream 11 bowed over time before cracking. I'm not entirely sure how it came to this but it was a slow process. Still, I've only had it like 2 years. It was just 80 bucks though.) Performance: I actually have two different bars for performance depending on what the budget allows. Ideally, I'd want a CPU powerful enough for PCSX2 emulation (Emulation is mostly CPU intensive from what I understand?) But short of that being possible in the budget, (or possible enough without sacrificing too many other features), the bar becomes lower (I think?). Lower performance for lower price is preferable in that scenario, but I'd like enough for video playback/streaming, web browsing, Discord, multitasking, drawing, image editing (GIMP/Photoshop), and at its most extreme light video editing (Adobe Premiere), and for all but maybe that last thing to be quick, snappy, and responsive. Battery Life: I think 3 hours under heavy load will probably serve me fine in 99% of situations, though I definitely would appreciate longer battery life so that I don't have to mount myself to the outlet while at home.
Pretty important, I'm looking for a small form factor I can carry with me easily.
I'm thinking somewhere around 8 - 11 inches, as I'm looking for something small, sleek, and easy to pack around. However I can be talked up to something a bit larger if it's still reasonably fit to carry around with me without a bag.
I don't think I'll be doing any major video editing. I might want to use premiere but not for much more than cutting a clip or joining a small handful of clips together. Any more complicated editing I'll be doing on my desktop. GIMP or Photoshop use might be common, Clip Studio Paint or Krita for drawing as well. I might be interested in trying Adobe Animate on the thing. The biggest gaming I'd hope to accomplish is PCSX2 and Dolphin emulation, but that is lower priority than other aspects of the design.
60 FPS, 480p (since we're talking emulating old games) - 720p max. Not that I want my screen resolution capped at 720p, just I'm more than satisfied with that in any games I were to play on this thing. Mostly Emulation, third through sixth gen, though gaming is low priority. Could be a fun aside.
Stylus with screen capable for drawing/writing is top priority. I'd prefer USB-A ports— I don't think a single device I own is USB-C, though I suppose I could use adapter. 250GB minimum disc space, though I'd prefer at least 500. HDMI and SD or microSD support might be nice but its low priority. I like pointing sticks/nubs more than trackpads but that is very low priority. I would like it to be sturdy enough to hold up under its own weight— in other words I'd like it to not require a kickstand in laptop mode. I plan to use it in my actual lap so... there won't always be an even surface for that. Speaking of portability, something that I can read in sunlight is practically mandatory. Actual physical keyboard keys is important to me too, not a touchpad with keys on it. Tactile feedback is important to me. I don't have a lot of experience with "bad" keyboards other than a roll-up keyboard I definitely hated, so I'm not sure what "preferences" I have in keyboards really. Although the base of my HP Stream did have a rather sharp edge that kept cutting into my arms when typing so... something with less bodily harm would be pretty nice. Oh, and Windows 10 x64. Not ARM or Android or ChromeOS or anything like that. I'd like to be able to run 64-bit .exe applications.
I saw this thing that got the gears turning; it was almost in my budget but the stylus wasn't included and would go over budget. Also, due to lack of knowledge in the mobile CPU space, I'm not sure if it's powerful enough to emulate PCSX2, and if not, I was curious what I might be able to get to still be able to accomplish everything else I wanted to do with it, perhaps at a better price. EDIT: Apparently drawing applications take more resources than I thought? In which case ignore everything I said about PCSX2 because it sounds like it probably doesn't matter. And now it's more like is this even possible with my budget/at this size uh oh Feel free to join our Discord server at: https://discordapp.com/invite/pes68JM for a faster response! (Do I leave this in? It was in the pastebin so I guess I'll leave this in.) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 24 Feb 2021 03:05 PM PST Hello! My old laptop is running very sluggishly and crashes frequently nowadays so I'm looking for a new one. I would like to stay within $1,100, preferably in the hundreds even, but would be willing to spend just a bit more if need be. My biggest must is the ability to run any modern game. I don't care about having the best FPS or anything like that, as I almost exclusively play single player games. I would also like at least 1 TB memory, although more would be great. Both gaming laptops I've had have been ROG but I'm willing to try any brand. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Need laptop for school and light gaming ($1200 usa) Posted: 24 Feb 2021 06:36 PM PST I'm going to be going to school for a master's in CS. I am looking to do some light to moderate gaming, but would appreciate the ability to play newer titles as well. Most of my gaming is currently indie or older stuff (think Terraria for indie, Fallout 1 for older). I would like an AMD processor. RGB keyboard is cool but not a dealbreaker. My budget is ~$1200.
