Best Laptop for my needs?

[stamatozord]

What's up guys?!

So, I'm going on a trip to USA and I plan on getting a laptop that will suit my needs. I am a student and live far from my school, so it would be nice if it was light (for ease of transportation). Also, it will be used for some software development alongside with slight game development (Mostly Unity 3D). If I could run some light games (such as Minecraft / CS:GO) it would be perfect. My budget would be 800 USD.

So far, I've considered getting a used Asus Zenbook UX 303 LN (http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00KTL21RA/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used) But I don't think the pricing on those is very appealing (as for now).

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Best laptop for that budget it's 15inch but it has great specs and can play current titles at high.

It's pretty thin and the battery isn't that bad.

I agree. Anything smaller than that with gaming grade graphics in that price budget would melt. 

 

That Asus is nice and all, but 840m is not really gaming grade.
