Hi, Im looking for a new laptop since the current one I'm using is basically lobotomized. I'm looking for (preferably) a DELL or something akin to one with at least 32GB of ram and a good bit of storage to play games and do college work on (so I'd need Microsoft Word). I would like to run things like blender/beginners 3d software for college so Im pretty sure I need something with good graphics. I'm not trying to run super big AAA games, but I'd it can run Minecraft and other smaller steam games that'd be good too.

My budget is around 1,000 USD. I was originally looking at a DELL Latitude 7440 14" (2023) Intel 13th Gen, which seemed good at first but heard it had performance issues when running things.

Sorry if this is a lot to ask for help on, I'm just sort of lost in my search so any information or recommendations would be helpful, thank you!

First time buying laptop needed suggestions which to buy ,needs (study,watching Netflix, gaming like valo' fortnite etc,battery) and my budget is under 75k

I thought buying vivobook 16x ultra core i5

Hi guys, I have a pc, but im going to need to use a laptop for school and abroad where I wont be able to bring my pc. Any suggestions?

Hey !

My sister's budget is about $500, and she asked me to find her a laptop that runs these with a room of 2 more years for newer things without hiccups, is that even feasible?

ZBrush – Cinema 4D – Substance Painter – Marvelous Designer – Marmoset – Arnold - live 2d cubism - ibis paint x

I never mind the used market.

General purpose, schoolwork with a bunch of documents, light gaming, bootable distros, Linux config, and multitasking.

* **Form factor**

* **Intended usage**

I'll be using it for documents, school, and light gaming (Minecraft, roblox, and indie games). I'll be running Arch Linux on it so I don't want to deal with NIVIDA drivers. Might run gentoo on it as well. Overall though, I just need one that can handle multiple tabs open, gaming, document making, and watching videos in 1080p.

* **Desired battery life**

At least 6-8 hours.

So I am in between to buy one of those

1- Hp 640 G8
CPU : Intel core i5 , 1145G7

RAM : 16 GB DDR4

2- Lenovo ThinkPad L14 gen2
CPU : same as hp
GPU : same
RAM : 16 GB DDR4 also same
Storage : 256 GB M .2
Price €319

Both are refurbished and in good condition

I will use it for university and a bit of light gaming
First I was going to buy the HP because I it looks nicer but I have read a lot of comment that it won’t live that long and won’t get past 3 years so I’m not sure now

okay paba yung rtx 4060 or 5060 for architectural rendering? asustuf kase is i7 with rtx 5060. or should i find smth na may 4070/5070

I am an incoming freshman to UCR majoring in biology. I am trying to figure out which laptop would be best for me to buy. I heard that there may be programs I will have to download that aren’t compatible with Mac but I am used to Apple and love their designs. I wanted to get an Air but people are recommending Windows instead. Should I get a Mac Air and rent a computer from UCR for those programs or just get a Windows laptop? If so which exact Windows laptop would be the best?

Another important consideration for me is visuals/build: I dislike the look of heavy gaming laptops and would prefer something more sleek and (for lack of a better description) pretty to look at. If I wasn't hoping to game, I would've definitely gone for a Macbook Air and called it a day 🥲

In particular, I am now looking at a Lenovo IdeaPad Pro (Ryzen 7, RTX 5050, RAM 16gb) going for around $1100, and it seems to tick all my boxes. My only concern is the soldered 16 gigs of RAM, not sure if this will be a limitation in my use case, especially a couple of years down the line, since it's not upgradable. A 32-gig version is out there, but it's way out of my budget; although, I guess with the current state of RAM prices any laptop with 32Gb is out of my budget...

Any thoughts or suggestions are highly appreciated! 😊

Im gonna buy a new laptop and want some suggestions. Been eyeing Vivobook 14 go but I want a second opinion, perhaps there is something better out there? I’m fine with refurbs!

I work with game dev but I’m a writer so I only use inkle (word processor) and GitHub. If it can run Godot that would be great but not a must. Streaming is nice but not a must. If it can run steam and really really light weight games like pixel art games that’s also nice because that would allow me to playtest some of the games I work on.

Longer.
