| Laptop of 7 years just kicked the bucket, need suggestions to buy one ASAP! Posted: 03 Jun 2021 06:43 PM PDT EDIT: I filled out the laptop questionnaire below in a comment! I don't know a ton about computer specs, etc so I need some serious help. I had a Mac laptop for the past 7 years (bought in 2014) I'm not dead set on buying another Mac. What I am focused on is getting a laptop that will last yet also fit my needs and budget. Budget: Low to middle 900s maximum USD. I'm looking for a computer that can handle: 1. School (main need, I'm still going through school for at least 1 more year, my old laptop got through only a few years after my bachelors, smh ) 2.Digital Artwork (work well with Wacom tablet drivers, CSP, Photoshop, etc smoothly for hours) 3.Gaming (doesn't have to be super serious, I'm casual, not a twitch streamer) Thank you!

| Picked a laptop online but couldn't find it on msi.com Posted: 04 Jun 2021 05:02 AM PDT I'm loving in India and I'm in need of a gaming laptop and had found one after months of shortlisting and consideration. It was on Flipkart.com link below. It was MSI GF65 THIN Core i5 10th gen, 16GB, 512GB SSD, 6GB Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660Ti/144 hz. 10SDR-1283IN. I wanted to read some more reviews so I got into MSI's website and started looking for it. I couldn't find it. I looked through the website again and again but there isn't a GF65 on MSI.com with the above specs. I don't want to get scammed but Flipkart is one of the most trusted websites so I don't know what to do. Help me out reddit [link] [comments]  |
| ~$1500, U.S. – productivity, photo editing, some gaming Posted: 04 Jun 2021 03:30 AM PDT LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE
up to around $1500. USA
Sure! Would highly prefer if they have some warranty or good return policy though.
Ultrabook with touch screen option preferred. No 2-in-1 though. About ~6hr battery life for school work and just browsing. Battery life while gaming or photo editing doesn't matter. I'd like a decent build quality to last 3+ years.
~4.5 lbs would be ideal. definitely under 5 lbs please.
• 13.3" to 15.6"
photoshop, lightroom, after effects. current games: genshin impact, minecraft, overwatch.
mostly want to play genshin impact on high settings with 60fps
reliable build quality and touch screen preferred. Prefer a keyboard without a number pad. When at home I will connect to 4k monitor and external keyboard.
I would prefer it to look more professional since I will be carrying it around to school and maybe future work places. I have done some research and I am interested in the HP Envy 15 with the gtx 1660ti maxq and multi-touch configuration. It seems to fit my needs, has a nice look, and has a vapor chamber for the thermals. But I've heard some things about HP laptops dying relatively quickly. I'd hate to invest in this and then have it die after a year or two. If anyone has an input on this "rumor?", qc, or this laptop for my needs I'd love to hear it! https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/ConfigureView?catalogId=10051&langId=-1&storeId=10151&urlLangId=&catEntryId=3074457345619573822&quantity=1 I don't know much about laptops so any comments / recommendations would be greatly appreciated! thanks!

| Looking for a solid choice! (800-1000 usd range) Posted: 04 Jun 2021 03:00 AM PDT Archeology student here. Questionnaire filled below :) Looking for a new laptop! Mainly for a good screen and smoove performance, one that'll last a while. Office, Acrobat and such in optimal performance. Oh and that it'll be quiet 🤫 I'm mainly reading, writing, and viewing artifacts, so a decent screen is a must. multitasking is also important. Not really used to apple (don't own any) but open to the suggestion if it's significantly better. Nothing really specific, just looking for a solid laptop that'll do the work extra well. Thanks people of reddit! Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: 1000 USD 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 is 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.
Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Reliable build quality is a must since I'm going to be carrying it around. A touch screen can be nice but isn't a necessity. [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for Best Value Laptop (<2k) Posted: 04 Jun 2021 02:48 AM PDT I know a lot of the price of gaming laptops, at least from what I've heard, is inflated by lights and unimportant parts. What do you guys think is the most value for power without wasting money on features that I'll never use? Laptops always worry me due to the fact that they cant be upgraded easily and stuff, but I move a lot and so PC's are rarely convenient. [link] [comments]  |

2500$ preferred. 3000$ absolute max. Will be purchasing in us.
I'd say everything is equal important for me but performance>build>battery if I have no choice. Battery shouldn't be less than 5hrs on light use.
13"-16"
The laptop will be used for rendering in blender, editing in photo shop and premier and a ton of coding with multiple windows open at a time. I game alot too.
I will be using a 1440p 170hz monitor and expect decent enuf framerates.Apex, valorant and COD: warzone at 120+ FPS if possible (low settings) . Alot of open world games like witcher 3, resident evil 8, Minecraft rtx, AC: Valhalla and battlefield V at playable FPS on the higher side of graphical spectrum. (Rtx would be fun)
A high resolution screen (1440p or above) with atleast 120hz of refresh rate. 5+ hours of battery on low brightness, rgb turned down(if any) and general internet surfing/school use. Reputable QC hopefully. Should also have direct means to run a 1440p 170hz monitor without any dongle or hub.
Things that are necessary for me:
Things that I would love to have, but can sacrifice if there are no options:
I just want something relaible that can be good enuf for games. Pls don't recommend the legion 5 pro as the looks are too aggressive for me and it's really heckin' chonky. I am not sure about razer blades since I have heard about very bad qc and laptops actually dying really quickly, but I would love some honest opinion on the blades. Thanks for the help!

| 1080p 300hz 3ms vs 1440p 165hz 3ms Posted: 04 Jun 2021 01:05 AM PDT okay so i brought a laptop online and a slightly different model arrived... im not sure if this has worked in my favour or if i have been given an inferior model. The make and all the specs are the same, they are both 3060 rtx m gpu and 5800h ryzen 7 cpu. heres a link to a in depth look at both laptops . The laptop i recieved was the 300hz 1080p model but from what i heard thats only for really needed for professional gaming will i notice the difference going to 165hz? if this helps the main things the laptop will be used for are:
5.photoshop
(dark souls 1 2 3) (Sekiro) (world of warcraft) (no mans sky) (emulators) (Gta) (occationally competative games like dark souls pvp fortnite and cs go) And just maybe other new games as they come out my main concerns are:
at the moment in 1080p games like wow and left for dead are playing at 200 frames and dark souls is capped to 60 anyway. (Of force future souls borne games might remove all frame rate caps) But will playing in 1440p Will this drop most games to like 60s Also i know most people say 1080p is enough for 15" display but i definetly notice the blocky pixles while playing dark souls 3 I know 300hz refresh rate is insane but will i actually notice the different from that and 165hz i heard 144hz was high ? Anyhow, thanks for taking the time reading and replying! [link] [comments]  |

| Want to get a deal but nervous to make the wrong choice Posted: 03 Jun 2021 05:59 PM PDT Hey folks. I'm not sure if this is allowed because I'm not so much asking "Which laptop should I buy?" but rather "Is there a safe way to get it on the cheap?" Context: The last time I bought a laptop was 2015 - a MacBook Air, 11", smallest amount of memory. It served me pretty damn well over the last 6 yrs with only minor issues. Unfortunately, it recently decided to go out with a bang. Per the tech that worked on it, it would cost much more to fix it than it's worth at this point. So I've decided to just get myself a new one. I want another MacBook Air. I know that people who actually know things about computers are generally not fans of Apple products (or so I've heard), but I loved my previous MacBook and want another. You could try to convince me to get something else, but I feel that my mind is made up. However, I'd rather not buy directly from Apple. Reasons are 1) last time I got a laptop, I managed to save $100 by getting a brand new one off of eBay. I think the box may have been open or something. 2) I also like the idea of getting a gently used one, to prevent waste, as I'm sure there are a lot of perfectly fine used ones out there. I'm nervous about getting one that's gently used, because what happens if the seller isn't truthful about its condition? Are there certain sites that are best to buy used computers from? Is eBay safe, or no? Or is buying used too risky and I should just follow the same method I did last time, getting a brand new one that is out of the box etc.? [link] [comments]  |
| Older generation intel i5 vs newer generation intel celeron/pentium Posted: 03 Jun 2021 09:28 PM PDT All i need is basic college needs with laptop and some gaming from early 2000s and older that i think it's not that heavy. Question is, would you rather pick an old used thinkpad x/t series with intel i5 4th gen or a brand new budget laptop powered with newer celeron/pentium? The cheaper the better as long it's sufficient for my needs, i don't wan't spend a lot of money to buy a laptop. [link] [comments]  |
| 3000 US Heavy performance laptop Posted: 03 Jun 2021 03:11 PM PDT LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE
Not necessarily, if anything an option for a non gaming laptop with all my other wants/requirements and a gaming laptop with all my wants and requirements would be cool ! The gaming laptop would be for games such as The witcher 3 running at least 45 FPS. (Or the newest next gen games out running at least 45-55)
The ability to connect the laptop to extra monitors or a tv without slowdown or lag would be great. I might use the laptop to make music with others and for Computer Science homework or writing programs. [link] [comments]  |

| I want a budget graphic design laptop Posted: 03 Jun 2021 03:46 PM PDT Hello, I am looking for a graphic design laptop and a bit of gaming (games like LoL, valorant, r6s...small games basically). My budget is 1000$ more or less... I have zero knowledge when it comes to PCs and laptops and i dont understand the specs stuff at all so I am worried that a store would scam be or me making a bad decision... I can match the price of a Macbook air 2020 (1050$) but the fact that i also need to buy accessories other the ones I already have to match the outlets in that laptop would be too expensive... I need the laptop to be used mainly for graphic design and some animation with a bit of gaming. Preferably touchscreen but if that would be too expensive I can give that up. What do you guys recommend? Thanks yall <3 [link] [comments]  |
