Hey guys! I was really hoping to get some advice on this. I have a budget of about 500-700 bucks to spend on a laptop. Here's a list of things that are important to me, in no specific order:
-Needs to be able to play WoW at medium settings with good FPS
-Would like 1080p
-Needs to be able to hold a decent battery charge, preferably close to 4+ hours if possible with light use (I don't game on the go away from a wall socket, but things like word, internet browsing, etc)
-I would be lying if I didn't say it needs to have some class - I've loved macbooks in my time but can't justify the money on one with the sloppy graphics cards. I really love the solid metal feel, weight is not something I care too much about, but I like aluminum's feel.
The rest is really just basics I would expect any laptop to be able to preform.
Laptops I've been looking at currently are the Dell XPS line in 2012 (I5 3340m w/ Nvidia GT630m 1GB or I7 3540m Nvidia GT640m 2GB) but I'm willing to look outside of it if it has the same solid feel, beautiful screen, and classy look. Wondering if it's necessary to spend more in order to get what I need out of a laptop.
Thanks for taking the time to read! If you have any more information you need out of me please let me know
Mike
