Hi, I would like to buy a laptop for work and gaming. Have a budget of $1k. Anyone can sugguest what laptop should I look at?
1k abit hard, if you got ard 1.3 or 1.4k better, i would suggest lenovo's y430 or lenovo's y450, both spec not bad.
check it out
oic... i think i should be able to squeeze out a few hundred dollars more. thanks.
gaming no budget de. lols.
Okay, gaming laptops not much at 1k. 1.2, have lah, but if still cannot squeeze out the extra cash, go for the gaming netbook: The Asus N10Jc. About $800-$900? Pretty good for a netbook.
Or If you can squeeze the extra cash, go for an Acer Aspire Gemstone series laptop, and by Gemstone I mean those that end in G, like 4935G, 4937G etc. Acer has been pretty good for me.
My guidelines for a decent budget gaming laptop:
At least 2.4GHz, dual-core (Faster, the better)
2GB DDR2 RAM (The more the better)
A discrete GPU (NVidia 9300M GS and above, G102M and above, ATi Radeon 3470 and above, 4350 and above). Don't buy if it says Intel Graphics. (The higher the number, the more likely that it is better XD) S3 Chrome graphics, it depends
HDD space, not that important, but get the 5400RPM and above.
A nice, fat screen, 14' and above (Personal preferences apply)
Oh, and if you find a laptop that fits what you want, post it here.
laptop.. 1k....
gaming...
don't sound.. possible
ok gaming laptop at least 3k
Well, take what you can get. A discrete GPU is better than an integrated GPU.
laptops are not suitable for gaming
its always to choose either portability or functionality
