Hey guys, I've been thinking over this for a long time now and have decided to buy a fairly descent laptop for gaming and school work as well. I'm horribly bad with everything that goes on inside the laptop so i thought i would ask you guys to help me choose a good laptop for my needs.
The thing is I am on a pretty low budget and I am not willing to spend a whole load anyway because I will be taking this laptop to school as well and it wouldn't be such a good idea to take something extremely over the top so, alienware or the top end asus laptops are out of the question.
I am also planning to start a you tube gaming channel so i will need the laptop to be able to run editing software as well.
So far i haven't really looked at many laptops but one laptop that seemed to be good for it's price was the lenovo z 50-70 (59-429602). Since i am not a very tech adept person 🙁 im not 100% sure if the specs are good.
From what i have seen so far this looked like the best but please feel free to suggest other budget gaming laptops or brands that would be good. (Overall gaming would be the top priority)

Thanks guys
 
You really want a laptop with a dedicated graphics and an i5 processor. If you can't get an i5, you could go with an i3. Your videos will take longer to render with the i3.

Best deal I can find on an i3

i5

i7 (Even if you don't have the money, I would try and save up and get the i7)

These are the kind of specs to look for.

Hope this helps
