    Looking for new laptop that can play games without looking like a rocketship


    Looking for new laptop that can play games without looking like a rocketship

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 07:27 PM PDT

    TL;DR: Professional-looking laptop that can play basic PC games.

    I just graduated college and my trusty Lenovo Yoga 900 is really struggling to do basic tasks now. I'm looking to buy a new laptop to use long-term for everyday and professional activities (document editing, web browsing, streaming, etc.). However, I also like to play video games on console, and am hoping to be able to play some games on this laptop without too much overheating/lag. Nothing too graphics-intense, I mostly like single-player games with narrative that I can't normally get on console. Thanks in advance for advice!

    LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE

    • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
      • $1500-2000 (U.S.)
    • Are you open to refurbs/used?
      • Not my first choice but sure.
    • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
      • (Highest to lowest) Performance, battery life, build quality, form factor
    • How important is weight and thinness to you?
      • Looking for something I can take around with me if ever travel or go to a coffee shop.
    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
      • 15 inches.
    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
      • Gaming.
    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?
      • This would be my first gaming computer so I'm not too sure about the settings I would be looking for. That being said I do enjoy RPG and narrative single player games (Witcher 3, Last of Us, Skyrim, etc.). I don't need it to look perfect, but want to avoid lag.
    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?
      • None specifically. This would be a long-term purchase so I'd like it to be sturdy and reliable, and for the battery life to maintain itself for a while.
    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.
      • Sorry this is a bit vague, I just want a laptop I can be seen with that can also play a few games.

    Good Gaming Laptop with good battery life but slick & portable. (budget is 3000$ CAD or under)

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 11:30 PM PDT

    Hi guys,

    So I'm going into my 2nd year of university this fall and will be commuting on the train an hour and 20 min there and back mon-fri. I will be taking distance-ed courses while commuting so good battery life on a laptop would be good. I honestly did like the Alienware M15 R4 (1tb, which came to about 2400 CAD i think). BUT, it seems that the battery life on it is very poor. Budget is not an issue, I want to invest good $$$ on a laptop that can be used for school and be good for gaming as well, I do prefer something more sleek and not clunky (looking into 15-inch laptops). I would rather stay under 3000$ CAD though.

    Does anyone have any leads on laptops that match what I am looking for, or something similar? Ket me know, thanks, guys :)

    budget: 3000 CAD

    new only

    weight lighter/thinner preferred

    will be used for gaming and school work (dead by daylight , league, fortnite, skyrim)

    15 inch preferred

    edit: i meant sleek** lol

    Looking for a laptop around £500~ that is powerful enough to handle large database files

    Posted: 04 Jul 2021 04:54 AM PDT

    Hello, I'm looking for a laptop for my housemate for around £500, he works with a lot of large database files and is basically looking for a laptop that'll handle them well. So basically a decent processor / RAM, but no gaming so the GPU is unimportant.

    -£500

    Are you open to refurbs/used? 

    No

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

    Performance, build quality, battery life

    How important is weight and thinness to you? 

    Unimportant

    Best choices for me around or under $2000?

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 05:14 PM PDT

    I'm going back to school soon and my last laptop from 2013 or so is no longer usable and neither is any Chromebook. I'm going to need a new one.

    • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: Around $2000 USD, just in case it's worth going a little over.
    • Are you open to refurbs/used?Yes
    • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? Performance > build quality > battery life > form factor
    • How important is weight and thinness to you? Preferred if I can realistically carry it to school often without a problem, but I wouldn't sacrifice much for it.
    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. N/A
    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Just gaming and general use, maybe simulation (more info below)
    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? I'd like a laptop that could play Destiny 2 at 720p 30fps minimum and run emulators smoothly.
    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? N/A
    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I watch a lot of live streams, but I've always had problems with Twitch that no one else seems to have. Between the old worn-down laptop I had before and the Chromebook I use now, I never had a smooth time watching Twitch. It doesn't run smoothly on PS4 or PS5 either but I think that's more of an app problem since it works fine on mobile. And since it works fine on mobile I doubt it's a network problem either. I'd also like to mention I plan to do computer science classes if that matters and physics classes pursuing astronomy, so I wouldn't be surprised if it would be beneficial to be able to use physics simulations.

    Is EVOO too good to be true?

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 02:21 PM PDT

    Hey guys, I was looking for an laptop mostly for gaming purposes and stumbled across an EVOO laptop sold by Walmart with all the specs I was looking for for 990$ https://www.walmart.com/ip/EVOO-Gaming-15-6-Laptop-FHD-144Hz-Intel-Core-i7-10750H-Processor-NVIDIA-GeForce-RTX-2060-THX-Spatial-Audio-512GB-SSD-16GB-RAM-RGB-Backlit-Keyboard-HD/444538279 .Is there something wrong or cheap about this brand since most of the other laptops I have seen with these same specs cost wayyyy more. I just wanna know if it is a reliable brand and if I should go for it.

    Looking for a powerful but elegant laptop

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 11:38 PM PDT

    TL;DR My current laptop can't handle 3d modeling and animation without either crashing or lagging up to a point that it's impossible to work with, so I'm looking for an update. I'll take the laptop to uni and maybe even work, so I don't want it to be big and bulky.

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

    1500-2400$

    Are you open to refurbs/used?

    No

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

    Ultrabook would be ideal (not too big definitely a plus for me), build quality, performance, battery life (all pretty important for me to be fair)

    How important is weight and thinness to you?

    Very, I'll be traveling a lot overseas with it, so transportability is a big one for me

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

    13-15 inches

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

    3d modeling/animation (Maya, Blender), Video/Photo editing (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Lightroom), a bit of gaming

    If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?

    Valorant (~100fps), r6 at highs would be perfect

    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 definitely, so it feels sturdy because it's a long term investment, a fingerprint would be cool but not a dealbreaker

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

    No webcam is a dealbreaker unfortunately

    Thanks for helping!!

    Programming + Graphic Design Laptop

    Posted: 04 Jul 2021 02:41 AM PDT

    So basically I am searching for a programming laptop that can also handle light graphic design.
    As a brand new student I will just be starting to learn to code and even though I understand I don't need a beast of a laptop for it I also will be spending 99% of my programming work on it and I need something that will last for at least 3 years.

    LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE

    • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
      ~1500 € / ~ 10000 HRK
    • Are you open to refurbs/used?
      No, due to warranty.
    • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
      (Highest to lowest) Performance, battery life, build quality, form factor
    • How important is weight and thinness to you?
      It is important because I will be taking it around often, but it doesn't need to be paper light nor thin.
    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
      Minimum 13 inches but I don't mind a little bigger.
    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
      Cinema 4D and Adobe Photoshop are my main priority when it comes to the extra apps + whatever is needed for programming (VMs included).
    • 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 and solid build quality is key. Finger print reader / Windows Hello function is welcomed, and as many ports as possible (however, I am open to dongles).
    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.
      As of now I'm looking at MacBook Air M1, Dell XPS 13, and maybe a Lenovo Thinkpad of sorts? I've never used a MacBook so I don't know how good they are at preforming my desired tasks. I like Dell but where I live they are a bit more expensive than needed and I don't know a whole lot about Lenovo, but I've heard they are good. Most of my programming work won't be based around Apple apps so I'm not looking at MacOS because of that compatibility but it seems as a nice bonus.

      No
    • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
      Good battery life, performance and build quality all equally important. Don't need a 2-in-1. I would like to start off with a solid 8-10 hours battery life so that when it wears down in a few years I'll still be getting a decent 5-6 hours. Also hope to use this laptop for 5 years (or more!).

      Need something portable and relatively light (probably around 1.3kg?) for uni and work. I use public transport a lot

      Main things I would be doing are web browsing, using Microsoft office, streaming youtube/netflix, some light gaming. Currently own a Dell XPS 15 which I know is a good laptop but I've had a bunch of issues with it (terrible battery life, the notorious nosecam, random crashes, and overall a bit slow in opening things). So I feel iffy about XPS and am looking for non-XPS recommendations. But still open to XPS if you can convince me haha

    Need help deciding on a laptop for photography

    Posted: 04 Jul 2021 12:22 AM PDT

    Hi everyone,

    So I'm currently stuck deciding which laptop i should get for photo editing. Programs I use are Adobe photoshop & Lightroom.

    I have a desktop for gaming and work however would like a laptop that's useful for editing wedding albums (thousands of photos on import) to allow me to edit on site away from home.

    Things I would prefer:

    • Portability
    • Fast import & Export
    • Colour accuracy

    Below are the laptops with specs & price I can get them for (discounted about 25%

    1 Dell XPS 15 - Seen many recommendations

    Ram: 32gb (+800 for 64GB) Intel I7 (11th Gen) Nvidia RTX 3050ti 4GB DDR6 2TB SSD LCD: 15.6" UHD+ (3840 x 2400)

    Total price: $3942.45 Without discount ($5300)

    2 Alienware x15

    Ram: 32GB DdR4 3200mhz Nvidia RTX 3080 8GB GDDR6 2TB SSD LCD: 15.6" QHD (2560 x 1440) 240hz 2ms Intel i7 11th Gen

    Total price: $4,334.53 (Without discount $5825)

    I'm aware the 3080 is new, if you were to spend so much on a laptop would you bite the Bullet and future proof for the extra $300-$400

    Keen to see what you guys think.

    Hello. I recently purchase the Razer Blade 15 Base (Link Below) and was looking to upgrade my ssd. I purchased the Sabrent Rocket NVMe 4.0 (Link Below) but I heard it isn't compatible with my computer, so I plan on returning it. Does anyone have any recommendations for a 1 TB m.2 ssd. I don't really know much but I was looking at the WD Black SN750 (Link Below). Can anyone tell me if it's compatible.

    Would this laptop be able to run games somewhat decently?

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 11:34 PM PDT

    I'm looking at the Lenovo ideapad 5- https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ideapad/ideapad-500-series/IdeaPad-5i-15IIL05/p/82FG00DPUS?cid=us:sem%7Cse%7Cgoogle%7Cca+shopping+brand+hv+intel%7Cgs_notebooks%7C%7C82FG00DPUS%7C1341262706%7C56667337114%7Caud-962703135981:pla-432104455885%7Cshopping%7Cbrand&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI8PechOXI8QIVmOSzCh1qRA9iEAQYAyABEgI6I_D_BwE

    It has everything that I'd need as far as just normal use. To be honest I don't really need much for normal use. I'd like to also do a little gaming on it as well. I'd probably just connect it to an external monitor + kbm. So I'm wondering if it would be able to run games somewhat decently (at least compared to my PS4). And if not do you know of any affordable laptops that might be able to achieve that.

    Light, durable, 15+inch, long battery life, 32gb rAM, with numerical keypad: does it exist?

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 07:29 PM PDT

    I've had a Thinkpad W550s for about 5 years and I've loved it. However I end up running out of RAM a lot (I have 16gb), the screen is starting to glitch out a bit, it's on its third battery, and I think it's time for an upgrade.

    Must be linux-friendly, and I don't care about graphics.

    My ideal machine is 17 inches but I know they kind of went out of fashion.

    Does such a machine as this exist?

    Is this a good laptop?

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 10:53 PM PDT

    Asus zenbook 14 (2021) It has 16gb DDR4 ram. MX350 (2 gb) graphics card. i7 11th gen cpu (1165G7). 512gb storage. 63WHrs, 3S1P, 3-cell Li-ion battery.

    I've heard zenbooks have good battery backup, hence why I'm choosing this over other laptops such as Dell XPS.

    I'm getting this for around the price of a macbook air (1200 usd). Is this a good, and if possible should I go for a ryzen variant? (With zen 2 architecture cpu, and AMD Radeon graphics) or should I go with this intel 11th gen with mx350 graphics card?

    I use the device mainly for coding, machine learning stuff, light gaming (valorant), and entertainment like YouTube, Netflix.

    Laptop under $500

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 10:40 PM PDT

    Budget: $500 (ideally under $300 knowing what I want it for).

    Open to Refurbished: Yes

    Screen size: N/A

    Purpose: I want to use it to connect it to my tv (I'm watching Japanese baseball, I use a VPN to watch it from my PC. If I try to cast from the pc to see it on the living room tv, it gives me a message about being outside their region. To bypass this i want to just set up the VPN on the new laptop and connect it to the tv via HDMI.) On Amazon I found a laptop but I wasn't sure if it would be the right one for what I want. Thank you.

    (US) 1000-1500$ laptop for Graphic work and light gaming

    Posted: 03 Jul 2021 06:38 PM PDT

    • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
      1000-1500 USD
    • Are you open to refurbs/used?
      Yes
    • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
      Great battery life and durable build quality are priority, with performance close behind.
    • How important is weight and thinness to you?
      The more portable the better, so I'd prefer something under 5lbs
    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
      13-16 inches
    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
      CorelDraw, Adobe Illustrator, and World of Warcraft (so both professional and light gaming use cases)
    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?
      World of Warcraft as well as various indie games
    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?
      This system is going to be used in a warehouse environment, so something a bit more durable would be preferred, and a decent screen/keyboard would be a nice to have as well.
    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.
      I've been looking around and recently came across the Dell Insprin 16 Plus, with an i7-11800H and RTX 3050 for 1200, or RTX 3060 for 1400 after discount codes/taxes, and was wondering if this would be a good selection, or if anyone else had alternative choices.
      I'd also prefer not to have something in the gamer aesthetic, but rather something neutral and less flashy that can better fit into a school/work environment.
