Suggestions on buying this laptop ??

Hello guys !!! Few days ago I posted a question about the same topic and here I'm again for another suggestion. Because that day i dropped that deal since many of them commented not to buy it.Thank you for letting me know that it was a terrible choice.

Now please give your valuable suggestions on this one??

 

Lenovo Ideapad 330

 

•Quad Core AMD Ryzen 5 2500u(4MB cache).
•2GHz clock speed with turbo boost upto 3.6GHz.
•8 GB DDR4 RAM(2400 MHz)/unexpandable.
•1 TB HDD.
•1366×768(15.6") display.
•DOS
•Vega 8 GFX.
•2 cell li-ion battery.
•No SSD.
•Price: $430 (₹30000).

 

If any other extra information needed comment on that.I'll look it and tell ASAP(but I'm not a computer geek).Also want to know if the battery is compromised for this budget. Waiting for the replys??

 

Thank you!

just a budget laptop really, nothing special to it. you wont be able to game on it very well if thats a consideration same with doing productivity.

screen is rather low rez. and an ssd would make the over all experience much better.

personally i would look for another. but for every day use not much wrong with it

No SSD can be a bit of a bummer, leading to slow reads and writes, but if you upgrade it yourself that would probably clear up any issues. for $430 it sounds exactly like I'd expect, a quad core CPU with some decent integrated graphics (vega 8 can do quite a bit better than Intel iGPU) and while the display is low resolution, if it's a small screen it will still look good.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

Thanks for the reply.It does not have an optical drive.So I think,there it might have some space available for an additional SSD.But I'm still not sure if it fits or not.Maybe a 128GB might have enough room I guess which I can upgrade in future.

Looking forward for more replays?
