Advice on a gaming/editing Laptop

[420Tetrahc]

Hello guys and girls!

 

I am planning to buy a laptop and i think i have found a great laptop. But since i have little to no knowledge off laptops i will ask you guys here.

 

The laptop will be used mainly for work in school and video editing. And it must be capable to game a bit on a decent quality.

I also would like an aluminium laptop so it will be stronger.

It's decent, but I would recommend something with a GTX 800m series GPU as the 765m gpu is an older card. But it should game decently

Get the Lenovo Y50-70..It has better overall specs and its lenovo so it probably the costumer service and everything else will be better

For the price you can do much better. If i were to recommend one, it would be any Sager/Clevo notebook. 

 

Here's a decent one i would recommend, is the NP8258-S, get it stock configuration. Which comes with a 4810MQ, 880M, 16GB of RAM, 120GB MSATA SSD, 1TB HDD, and a 15.6" 1920x1080 display.

Lenovo's customer service is garbage. The only thing they have going for them is the build quality, and even that has been going down hill over the years.

Well for me it was good, i guess it depends on the person that answer.

Buy still the small clevo copycats cant have better service

Costumer support is very good at Medion so that is not a problem

Sager have amazing support. It's a little bit different the support you'll get from a smaller company, rather than a large company.

Ok then..I suppose the only reason to get the Y50-70 is because it has better specs and its probably cheaper since (Sager/Medoin which one is the right one?) it has good customer support.
