1. What is your budget?
Around 800$.
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
The screen should be at least 15". Wouldn't mind having a bigger one.
3. What screen resolution do you want?
At least 1366x768.
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
No, I don't.
5. How much battery life do you need?
I'd probably have it plugged in most of the time, so the battery life doesn't matter to me much.
6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
It would be nice if the laptop was capable of running newer productions (like Fallout 4) on medium settings or better unless it's too much to expect that from a 800$ laptop.
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)
Nothing worth mentioning. Occasional gaming would be the most demanding task for my laptop.
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
500 GB of HDD should suffice.
9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links.
