Gaming/Business Laptop in 800$ Range
Hi guys! It's been awhile and I thought... "Oh Graal would be a great place to ask these questions, instead of looking at reviews from people I have no clue of" So I'm looking to purchase a gaming type laptop in the 800$ range, I've so far come up with this one. Any ideas or better suggestions? Any help is appreciated, thank you! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01AC...=ATVPDKIKX0DER |

Looks good to me. Comes with 8GB and can hold 32 Ram. I wouldn't really think you will need more than that but if you do you can get more in it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It really depends on what kind of business it is that you are into. Graphic Design Accounting Bakery Shop? Instagram Model??? Also, what kind of games you want to run, because a laptop just isn't quite at that level yet, and you could be saving money in the long run by just getting a desktop. So questions are: Which games do you want to play and how well? In which area do you work in? and Do you constantly have to take your laptop to work? |

Thanks for all the help. Used for photo editing, some film and digital media stuff too. But mostly for casual use. Games would be far cry, battlefield and anything else I might fight at GameStop that's newer and cool as **** looking graphics. Not a huge gamer but I'm trying to get into it.

The laptop I recommended would probably last you at least one year with ultra graphics and then probably two more years~depending on your preferences.

Why only a year? Seems like a really short lifetime

Ah ok I see, well thank you! The more and more I think... Better bang for your buck to build a desktop from ground up. I don't have a monitor or any of its accessories (keyboard, mouse, ect.) The Lenovo definitely is the best I could get for the price range. The dell is nice but the screen not 1080p steers me away and with it only being 13"

If you don't need a lot of storage I'd get something with an SSD instead.
