My rubber feet strip on my blade 2014 has fallen off what is the best to use to re stick it?

Seems really reasonable for the specs to be honest. Not many laptops can have 32GB ram + 250gb and 980M for 1848.

It really depends on the use, if your going to be doing lots of editing or 3D cad ect then more ram and processor power is always good. If its for gaming then there really is not much use for faster ram and slightly faster CPU.

If you are not going to move it around and are going to use it as a desktop replacement then I'd look at the GT72 or the P55W. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/gigabyte-p55w-v4-cf1-15.6-fhd-ips-intel-core-i7-5700hq-nvidia-gtx-970m-3gb-gddr5-gaming-laptop-lt-058-gi.html#awards They are both...

Considering its got the latest GPU probably 1000-1100.

I'd guess like 80-90 GB considering your using the laptop for web browsing that should be enough? The new Celeron is really good for things like web browsing and multi-tasking.

To be fair the video card VRAM will make little to no impact on that GPU, I'd go with the ASUS.

Try PC specialist Genesis V laptop, specced with 6th gen Celeron Quad Core, 4Gb ram, SSD and then remove the OS you'll look at £256.

All depends on the spec you choose, I like the nitro as its size and weight really stand out for portability. I would however be lost with a machine using only a slow mechanical drive, the Asus one will be much better for gaming at a trade off for a slightly heavier (half a pound) laptop.

It won't damage your chip or thermal throttle, the reality is these chips are built for higher temps in a mobile gaming environment.

I would go with the GS40 as from experience a 14 inch laptop is so much more easier and convenient to carry around vs 15/17 inch. In games there is very little diffence between heat and sound too.

Skylake HAS hit the laptops :-) Here is my recommendations if you've got anything more specific in terms of size, display ect we can find something more refined. Finding an SSD in a low end laptop is hard especially if you want a dedicated GPU for gaming. Custom laptop boutiques are pretty good...

Hi chris I can give you some good advice here coming from somebody who currently owns a blade 2014 and had a few laptops in the past few years. In terms of looks and build quality I can assure you the Blade can go toe to toe with the MBP. I had a MSI GS series before my blade and also used macs...

Seems like you've chosen a beast of a machine, what was your deciding factor to get the 6820 over 6700?

US / UK Ect ? Your price range ? What are your heavy work loads? CAD, Editing ect?
