if you can wait... wait. New laptops with AMD cpu's are being pushed out and are cheap, fast, and light. 

we also need more details:

Size?

Weight/thickness?

good keyboard/mouse or it doesn't matter?

RGB?

build quality?

storage?

webcam? ( < -- especially important now)

ports?

do you care if it runs hot?

do you need a good quality screen? (matte/glossy/color accuracy/refresh rate)

^^^^ - we need more info as there are 1000's of models you can choose.

You don't need much to get by in Computer Science.

I've gotten through 4 years with a quad-core Intel Atom and a dual-core hyperthreaded i5 (which thermal throttled)

THE ONLY TIME my under-powered laptop didn't handle the task is when I was doing a deep-learning project that required CUDA acceleration to get any results in a fashionable time, but that was my last semester of University.

Help!!!!!!!

Computer Science does not need a Rocket of a laptop and you PC does not need to be portable better build your own PC it will be money better spend.

 

I studied computer science and didn't  feel the need for a laptop, i just had a desktop PC. Plus if you build your own PC its practice for you since you like computers and want to study them
