Laptop question
This is what I've been planning on getting, my budget is €600
I'll be a student in a week or so, gaming is not my priority and even if I do, it would probably be for a short while on medium, I don't see major differences in high/ultra besides draining battery or worse cpu/gpu overheating, it isn't uncommon for a laptop to overheat, but if you take care of it, clean the fans at least once per 2-3 weeks it should be fine, anyway here are the specs: Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E431 OS: Windows 7 32-bit Display: WLED HD Anti-glare, 14" / 1366x768 CPU: Intel® Core™ i3 3120M, 2.5 GHz, FSB 1600 Mhz 4 GB RAM HDD: 500 GB 5400rpm SATA GPU: NVIDIA®GeForce GT 740M 2GB Battery: 6-cell (Li-Ion), 48 Wh Cost: €510 What are your thoughts?

Nevertheless, this thing should works since it has above average frequency (simply overclock if you think you need extra power). Overall it's a-okay and should able to run whatever game that came out 2007 onwards. AFAIK Lenovo Z480 (?) was one of my 'biggest bang for the buck' high-tier laptop; (from my last observation, that's around half year ago) with ~$800 (sorry, can't remember exactly but it's obviously above $600, sorry <_<) you get this spec: -Intel i7 processor, can't remember the exact frequency (about 2.30-2.50 GHz?) -4GB RAM (or 8? can't remember) -GeForce GT 7xx (can't remember the details too, GT 740 maybe?) -1TB HDD (f*#$ yea) |

RE: Laptop question
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, but I will not be gaming for any hardcore needs, even when I can
I rather keep the laptop in shape by not playing at full capacity as I stated I do not see much difference in high/ultra settings, so I guess this should be alright, i7 is way more than my i3 indeed, but for 500eu seems ok I think, I believe lenovo are well known for their thinkpads (was going for ideapad originally, but not anymore) oh yeah, I was also looking at ASUS, but decided this instead, they are a bit more money for even better, but I need something soon rather later.

RE: Laptop question
I owned a Dell latitude for 5 years so I can at least tell you that they last long enough.I really don't think someone can think in your place,for example I got a Sony Vaio ultrabook with only 2 USB ports(1x2.0,1x3.0) and no CD/DVD writer.This would be unconceivable for other people but I got a bluetooth mouse and I wanted a laptop as light as possible so I didn't mind losing some features
