Definitely the Razer Blade. It will be much lighter to carry around.

 

 

 

 

Believe me, it makes a bigger difference than you might think.

Hello all,

 

this is the first time I feel like I have a valid enough argument to reply, so please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong or if I'm missing some information. My views are totally represented in this short, well-made video:

 

Not to mention, with your budget you could comfortably fit a decent ultrabook for college portability and light work, and still save enough to build a kick-ass PC for gaming/editing work at your college dorm or house.

 

Thanks and feel free to comment,

 

Jacob

Don't go for those overrated and highly priced manufactured laptops.

Go for this kind of custom built laptop with a company that has gotten numerous awards for their laptops from independent computer labs.

M-Tech Laptops - Slim Line

 

You will still have plenty money left over to get a decent custom built desktop computer like this one:

On what planet is that a decent desktop pc ? Why on earth would spend $$$ on an R7 1700 and X370 board and then put a shitty gpu in there ?

 

Also what is the random Noctua AM4 bracket for ? I don't see a cooler anywhere.
