So i have been seriously looking into laptops (best config/videocard + cpu match up) I am really stuck here, There is so many good options to choose from.
1. What is your budget? 750$ MAX 700$ or less would be ideal.
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering? 15.6" portability is key, I will be toting it around school.
3. What screen resolution do you want? Not picky
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop? Both sort of.
5. How much battery life do you need? Also not picky.
6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)? Yes, I am not looking for something that will play skyrim on high at 45fps. More or less I would like something similar to my desktop in performance (Which can play skyrim on high fairly well). Desktop config is Athlon II x4 620 propus, Nvidia Geforce GT 545, 4gigs of DDR2 and 300gig seagate 7200rpm sata HD.
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.) I like dinking around on FL studio 9 and Abelton live
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need? 250+
9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links. Newegg/Ebay/Amazon/Tigerdirect etc.
10. How long do you want to keep your laptop? 4 to 5 years.
11. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ? DVD rom (blu-ray a + but no biggie)
12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons. Anything dependable, I don't care about a name.
13. What country do you live in? US
14. Please tell us any additional information if needed
I have been looking into HP's dv6 and dv7 lines since they seem to have some of the better setups (8 gigs of ram/ Radeon HD 7690 or 6770, I5 2520m).
