My budget for a new laptop is 650 - 750 (800 max).
I am more focused on price to performance ratio and quality of build ( I don't want my laptop to explode in flames or dying within 3 years)
I mostly use my laptop for my general work, school, and rarely gaming (free online MMO - smite, DFO, -might play other games if I have better specs).
I think the most intense programs I run are autocad, photoshop cs6, cadence, pspice, (any MMO killed my previoused laptop), and profilers for IDEs.
So im stuck between:
[laptop 1] Lenevo $680
Processor: 4th Generation Intel Core i7-4510U Processor (2.00GHz 1600 MHz 4MB)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 820M 2GB
Memory: 8.0GB PC3-12800 DDR3L SDRAM 1600 MHz
{wireless ac, and 8gb of SSD)
[laptop 2 ] HP $ 675(8GB RAM) $775(12GB RAM)
Processor: 4th generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4700MQ Processor
GPU: NVIDIA(R) GeForce(R) GT 740M Graphics with 2048MB of dedicated video memory
RAM: 8GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm) (can bump up to 12 GB for total $750)
{win7( i can upgrade to 8)}
[laptop 3] HP - $775 (8GB Ram)
Processor: 4th generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4712HQ Quad Core Processor
GPU: 4GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 850M Graphics
RAM: 8GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)
{win8}
Please Advice, and thank you in advance.
