Help choosing a new laptop for college.

My budget is probably under $1600 usd. I’m looking something that doesn’t scream gamer, but I want to be able to run games nicely. I’ve been looking at the XPs 15, Razer Blade 15 base, msigs63, dell g7, any recommendations?

Dell XPS 13? Problem is the battery life though

What? That it's too good?

 

The XPS' are famous for their good battery life

How often do you plan on gaming?

If it's every once in a while I say XPS

I know the dell g7 line is coming out w the oled displays soon. I just want something with nice build quality and I don’t want the fans to be an issue

Take a look at the Aero 15, you might be able to snag one of those on sale for a price close to your budget

Otherwise, I hate to say it, the GS65 may fit your needs just as well.

Though the keyboard and trackpad suck

I don’t really care about weight just as long as it’s not super fat. Battery life needs to be decent and I want the laptop to look nice, not too gamery. Also the fans can’t be super loud.
