Need a laptop for my wife that preferably has usb-c type charging since we have an issue with our kids destroying every other charger type out there. Is there a way to sort by this option on any major sites? Used/refurb. is OK. I have some RAM and might buy a m.2 drive separately. Anything too chunky won't be used, we need it to be good for on an actual lap, possibly sharing room with a kid. =-) Thanks! -
Hi guys! New member here. I just started college after a 6 year gap year, and I’m in the market for some new PC hardware. The last laptop I purchased was a Lenovo Ideapad (I think U530?) w/ an i7 and a Nvidia card in 2015, and it’s trucked along since then, still capable of doing basic work online and some really light gaming (as in, SIMs on low). However, my poor laptop has cracks, missing keys, and is in two pieces, held together with duct tape.. making it more of a shitty desktop than a laptop. So, I’m posting in here for recommendations on a light, portable laptop with enough power to handle daily tasks and media consumption while I’m at school. I’ll be doing a lot of typing on it, so a decent keyboard would be nice, and in a perfect world it would be an aesthetically pleasing setup as well (ex. thin bezels, not clunky in appearance). I’m gonna want to hold onto it for awhile as well, so having hardware that will last 3-5 years would be ideal. I don’t care about touch screens or it being a 2 in 1, as I have an iPad that handles that stuff. My max budget for it would be around $700, as I’m also looking into building a gaming PC for myself (I’ll be making a post in the proper place about that shortly). So yeah, let me know what you guys think! Thanks!! -
In thinking of the zephyrus M that is at 1400 usd with a 1660ti https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YZ24WJB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Nh7.DbD9YZDRS Or this one for 1700 usd with a 2070 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VF88TMR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Bi7.Db3HWQ1K4 This one is an S that is on offer supposedly https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QN3683G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Uj7.DbCVHTFFH And this is an older one that had a 1080 but g sync and supposedly under a huge offer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BP9LSVS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_hl7.DbWQVTWMD I haven't looked into the msi stealth or the razer options but those are valid too, what should I pick? -
Hello everyone! I am looking for a laptop to buy in the next few days. My main needs are the following, very good battery life. weight, good processor, Nvidia graphics ( working with render engine that require a cuda card to open my files, even if i dont render). at least 16gb RAM and a good ssd. I will use this laptop for notes taking, media consumption and work ( i do 3d and 2d animations ). This is not my only computer (I have a workstation), i dont expect to render much 3d with it, but I will model, animate and set scenes. i mainly wants to be able to work at a client, work in a cafe and on the go, as i do travel quiet a lot). I was hesitating between Lenovo X1 extreme, XPS 15 and Msi prestige. but the lenovo battery doesnt seem great. Xps seems to have some throttling and some build issues. So here I am, going with the Prestige 15"+ 1650. when I discovered there was a 14" version with either the same GPU or a mx250. Would it be a mistake to go with the 14"? does it heats up too much? and if so, is going for a MX250 puts up less heat while still giving me a bit of power? Is the 14" crippled by its single fan system? should i stick to the 15" version even if it is bigger? if someone has used both or one of them I would be super interested to see what they think about it. thanks a lot!

Hello there, I have recently found the need for a good laptop for school under about 1200 USD. The laptop should preferably be thin and light with minimum to no gamer accents, aggressive styling etc. But a bit of it is ok. I will be using it for ms office along with light video editing(nothing too much) and I will be playing relatively demanding games like overwatch, csgo, fortnite etc and have figured out that I will require at least 4gb of VRAM so like 1050 and higher and atlest 4 physical cpu cores. On amazon, there are a fair bit of options but almost all of them are thick and are flashy red etc.(most from msi and asus) Any help is appreciated thank you. ? -
Hello Guys! As the title says i am looking for a nice laptop for max 1300 canadian dollars. I would like to buy the most powerful machine but with decent battery life and portability. I prefer that the machine looks modern with thin bezels. Till now i have circled out legion y530 and hp omen 15 , they are kind of on higher side of my budget. I am open to new laptop suggestions. I would also like to know about few good places to buy laptop in canada. I will be doing android apps and programming adobe illustrator and medium gaming on it. Do suggest some nice deals if avialable. Also guys i m slightly confused between getting a poweful machine vs getting a portable machine such as vivobook s15.

Asking for my sister: Her laptop is too "bulky" and she wants a thin laptop/tablet w/attachable keyboard for school. No more than ~$1000 (CAD). She said her friend recommended the "Macbooks of Microsoft": Surface Pro devices. I guess a touch screen is important too. I'm not very knowledgeable about these types of devices, so I appreciate your help. What would be the best deal she can get for a device like this? -
Hi guys So I've decided its time to invest in a gaming laptop, and the obvious choice for an all-rounder is the razor blade 15. I've begun my search but have struggled to find many deals on this laptop in the UK. Just wondering if anyone on here knows of a great place to pick one up at a great price to avoid the dreaded buyers remorse. Appreciate your help and advice! Thanks!

So I've got my little mini ITX pfsense setup here and the 80mm x 15mm exhaust fan died, so I bought a cheap replacement from eBay, that one died, so I bought a Silenx brand fan and that died too. When I say 'died' I mean they got loud, started spinning slowly, and the motor got hot. In other words the bearings failed. I've currently got a thermistor controlled 92mm fan from an old Dell BTX setup bolted and taped to the case from the outside which looks pretty jank, but it is working well. Are slim 80mm fans just all cheap junk, is it the vertical mounting position with the fan hub hanging down, am I just getting crappy fans, has it all been bad luck? Find out today on....wait no. I need some suggestions on a reliable long life 80x15 3 pin fan, I'd like all the moving parts to be contained inside the case someday. What's been working reliably for you all? I don't mind spending if I know it's going to last, but I don't wan to spend till I know it's going to last.

Hey all, I'm currently on the market for a new laptop and have landed on these three - the MSI GS65 Stealth Thin, the Aero 15X by Gigabyte, and the New Razer Blade 15. All 1080p 144hz at 15.6in, thin bezels, with GTX-1070 and i7-7700... My question is, which one should I take? As they are all extremely comparably in specs and build, I'm having trouble deciding. I am also open to any other suggestion of laptops (any price range, as long as decent battery life, high refresh rate 1080p screen, and capable of gaming). Harold

Hey! I'm on the market for a new laptop to use aside from my desktop (a fairly capable one), I have around $1400 to spend and I don't mind buying used and/or refurbished laptops. I'm looking for something with an i7 7th gen or better, 1050Ti or better and just good overall quality, don't really care about design or colors or size (as long as it's not a 17" monster) nor brand. There are a lot of options out there and I just don't know if I'm missing any of 'em and I know for sure you guys may know 1 or 2 options that I could consider! -
So I'm looking for a small as possible but cheap uATX/mATX case. I've found this so far, but that's it. Can be thin or a cube, just needing it to take up the least space possible. Any suggestions?

Hi everybody and sorry for my bad English.I've just sell my Alienware 15 R3 to buy a new gaming laptop, 8th Gen, with full GTX 1070, and I've done some research between Asus, Alienware, MSI, and in conclusion I hesitate a lot between these models (battery life isn't an issue for me, and I will carry my laptop everyday in a backpack to school from my house) :- ASUS ROG Zephyrus M GM501GS- ASUS ROG Strix GL703GS SCAR (does it exist in 15" ?)- MSI GS73/GS63 8RF (Max-Q or Full ?)- MSI GS65 8RF (Too expensive for only 256/512GB storage?)I came here to hear your advices and critics about these laptops, and what models would you choose ? Thermals are good on these laptops ? Because my AW had horrible thermal issues (99°C in game) and that matter a lot for me because I hate throttling when gaming (not just me I assume).Last thing : I can do a Liquid Metal Repaste but I heard that will affect the guarantee on Asus Models (and it's not good when you move your laptop in a backpack ???)Thanks in advance ! PS: just heard about Mechrevo V2, but not sure how I can buy it in EU.

Hey! Starting college next year and I'm looking for a good laptop, I'm willing to spend around $1200 but I can go up to around $1500 if needed. I'm looking for something thin and light, majoring in computer science so I don't need anything to hefty. Hopefully someone can help me because there seems to be endless options and endless negative reviews. Thanks

Suggestions for "The Perfect Laptop"?
megalodonkatsu posted a topic in Laptops and Pre-Built Systems
Hello everyone, I'm looking for some recommendations for a laptop for school and light to medium gaming. For reference, I currently have: Asus S46C https://www.asus.com/Laptops/S46CM/ i5 3337U 14.0" 1366x768 resolution GT740M 1TB 2.5" SSHD (upgraded from 5400rpm HDD) (Dead) 24GB half size mSata SSD Cache I'm looking for one that's thin(ish, around the same size and build as my old laptop), light(ish, around 2kg), relatively powerful, and reasonably priced. Now, I know that "the perfect laptop" proooobably doesn't exist, and I'm aware of that "Powerful/Thin and light/Affordable, choose two" triangle, but I am willing to compromise a little bit on each category, but I do hope someone here might know of a laptop, now or being released in the near future, that can tick all of the boxes. In a perfect world, my ideal laptop would have: thin bezels, 14-15" 1080p 100+Hz panel, GTX1050 or better, weigh 1.5-2.5kg, low-key aesthetics, 2.5" drive bay and m.2 slot, battery life >4 hours, and under $1600 Canadian Pesos. Refresh rate is one of those that I know I probably wont find on a non-gaming laptop, but it's worth mentioning. And, of course, price is the one that's the least plausible if I'm to get "the perfect laptop," so I'm willing to, and will probably have to, go above my budget. I've already looked at a couple potential candidates, but they all have some quirks (mostly pricing) that make me hesitate a little: Asus ZenBook UX550VE (too expensive) Dell XPS 15 (too expensive) Razer Blade (heard horror stories about its reliability, and too expensive) MSI Stealth Pro (heat and battery life) GIGABYTE Aero 15 (too expensive) Xiaomi Mi Notebook Pro (Chinese OS that I have to reinstall, weak GPU, import/shipping and handling) Xiaomi Mi Gaming Laptop (bit heavy) Sager NP6850 (bit thicker than I'd like) Custom Laptops (few sites that sell in Canadian Pesos, also expensive, in part due to Canadian Pesos) As of now, I'm leaning mostly toward the Stealth Pro and possibly the Mi Gaming Laptop once its released and reviews are out. Possibly the Zenbook or XPS 15 if there's a steep enough sale. I'm starting in September, so any releases between now and then can be considered. I'm aware that the likelihood of a laptop that completely fits the bill is around 0%, so any additional feedback and suggestions for (or against) the ones I listed above will also be greatly appreciated. Also worth noting is that I'm also considering the Eve V instead of a laptop, or a completely thin and light, non-gaming-able laptop, since, you know, school. But I crave the sweet, sweet allure that is my Steam library. Edit: Recently released is the MSI GS65, which comes about as close to my preferred specs as possible; thin bezels, thin and light, "stealthy" design, 144Hz panel, etc, with only battery life and price being the main concerns. I'll try not to bump this post too much, if at all, but I'll keep an eye out on any upcoming releases that might be a little more affordable, such as a 1050Ti or 1050 version of the GS65. -
Hey everyone, I'm currently in the market looking for a new laptop as my old one has died. I was using an MSI GS60 GhostPro until now. In the same vein as the old one, I am looking for a thin gaming laptop, whose primary use will be for casual and professional usage (in university and for normal productivity tasks). Ideally, I would like for it to have a reasonable battery as my old laptop would die after a mere couple of hours of usage in class. I was thinking of maybe getting the Razer Blade Pro, but realized it has a quite a bit of competition this year. Any suggestions? My budget is fairly healthy and I should be able to afford any suggestion of thin gaming laptops currently on the market. Thanks all, Harold -
Hey everyone, I'm currently interested in researching i7-8809G or i7-8705G laptops as I've seen a Hades Canyon NUC videos that got me interested. If anyone can tip me off on laptops that use either of the two processors, preferably thin and light (but anything is welcome), that'd be great! I'd really like to get a laptop that has the gaming performance I want in a thin and light chassis, and the option right now is for me to get the new XPS13, external GPU enclosure, and take the 980ti out of my system and plop it in. That way I don't have to cannibalize my desktop and spend $300-500 on an enclosure. Thanks for your help -
I am looking for something like this (horizontal so-dimm slots and PCIe x16), but with a modern chipset compatible with the latest Intel CPUs. Can anyone help me? Thank you
