So my old laptop decided to mess up on me, and I'm looking for a new laptop. I hope to be able to play most modern PC games, like Black Ops for example (not sure if budget will allow though).
1. What is your budget?
My budget is 800$. Willing to go over slightly if the laptop is really worth it.
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
15.6" or 17" (most likely 15.6" since I'd rather have other specs in my budget)
3. What screen resolution do you want?
I'd prefer an 1080p laptop, although if it's not possible, a 720p will be fine as well.
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
Somewhere in between both.
5. How much battery life do you need?
Doesn't matter too much, I usually have my laptop plugged in when using it, as long as it's over 2 hours, it should be fine.
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, hopefully I can play the games on Medium to High at least.
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo / Video editing,watching movies, Etc.)
Be able to watch movies, photoshop, sometimes I do video editing too.
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
500GB+
9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links.
Anywhere is fine as long as it'll ship to Canada and I can get a good deal. I'm looking around in stores like Best Buy and Future Shop as well.
10. How long do you want to keep your laptop?
As long as I can, preferably over 5 years.
11. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ?
Bluray is nice but I'm pretty sure a regular DVD Burner should be fine.
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.
No preference really. I try to stay away from Acer though.
13. What country do you live in?
Canada
14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
None
