    Sounds like you're looking for an Ultrabook.
    There are many options, like the ASUS Zenbook UX305LA 13.3-Inch Laptop (5th Generation Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, Windows 10): Click here for Amazon link (While it's on sale)
    Dell also offers a few compelling options, including AMD APU laptops for some of that Radeon Core goodness (Also has Intel options): Take me to Dell
    Here is a good link to a video that might help you get started: 
    Choosing a laptop can be hard, especially when on a budget. Good luck choosing the right one!

    manually setting my GPU fan to 0rpm without turning the fan curve on then opening up farcry 4. luckily the fans turned themselves on to 100% after hitting 94°C scaring me so bad i fell back in my chair and took my bookshelf down with me.

    The VRM is the part of the motherboard that delivers power to the CPU. Stressing VRMs can be very dangerous.

    Check the VRM temps (I think you can do this) in HWMonitor

    Just because some things a real issue doesn't mean we can't joke about it. My childhood I grew up on frozen food because that's all we can afford.
    Almost anything we talk about can be considered a serious problem SOMEWHERE. If you don't like the jokes then don't listen, that's the joy if it.
    You know your poor when your only source of entertainment is a free online fourm

    You should initialize the drive with GPT, MBR would not allow partition larger than 2TiB, if you want to divide the hdd into many partition smaller than 2TiB it's fine to use MBR.

    I imagined an unresponsive GPU lying on the ground, we'd need to grab the defib and zap the card to bring it back to life. Then it'd sit in the ambulance while all the EMTs examined it and made sure it was OK. Then it would go home to its wife, and she would cry at the thought of almost losing her significant other. He would calm her down, and they'd watch a movie.
    THE END.
    Idk, I'm weird.
