    Mine is 1050 4gb. Keep in mind my primary use is not gaming.
     
    Budget is way too low to buy new. I would see if there are any good used deals near you.
     
    Walmart has the pavilion gaming with 1050ti for 648 right now on special. Thermals are trash. Build quality is plasticky, but it fits budget.

    I have an HP Omen 15 with a 1050ti, 8th gen core I5, 12 gigs ddr4 2400 ram, 128gb m.2, 1tb HDD and 15 inch 60hz display. Bought it on Amazon for 799 brand new with 3 year warranty. Thermals are ok but it will run warm. I'm going to redo the thermal paste when I get back home. But outside of that I have no issues with it. I can run ME Andromeda at 60 fps with medium to medium high settings.

    Budget is low for a gaming laptop, might want to go used/refurb or wait for sales
     
    Preferred max weight in kg/lbs?

    What's your budget? I personally wouldn't touch an Acer laptop with a 10 foot pole from previous bad experience.

    I'm using a nitro 5 i5 1050 as my daily driver. Other than the plasticky construction I have been very happy. Thermals have been excellent, however higher spec models do have issues with cooling however.
     
    Take a look into the 2018 omen line. Should be around the same budget and are remarkably nice for the money. Avoid the 2017 and older models.

    Location? Budget? Any preference on weight and battery life?
