PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU SUGGEST

 

So I am looking for a solid laptop  around the $1000-1100 range I was looking at thishttp://www.amazon.com/N550JK-DS71T-Full-HD-Touchscreen-Laptop-Aluminum-Body/dp/B00IAA5BSS/ref=dp_ob_title_ce  but the price makes me a little uncomfortable especially when I have a powerful desktop. so any suggestions would help

things I am looking for

dedicated gpu

has a more professional look

is easy to do maintenance on
is fairly light and portable

 

 

also please do not suggest the y50 I don't want something that screams  a "gaming laptop"  

 

thank you

Try configuring some lenovo laptops on their websites. They definitely don't look like a gaming laptop, more businessy.

Lenovo y50

 

I wouldn't say it "screams gaming laptop", compared to something such as alienware or razer.

 

 

To me the y50 does not have much of a "Gaming laptop" look, sure its got a red backlight and red accents, but it does not have anything that would class it as a "gaming laptop"

"sigh", no laptop has the look or the features as the n550, I mean yeah I like to game but I just dont want to look like a gamer....I like to look professional, may as well fork out the extra 200...lol

Select IC Diamond thermal compound, the 1TB 7200RPM free upgrade and the Wireless 7260ac card and you're good to go. If you have a little more you could grab a mSATA SSD or an OS. It should be fine and is a 13" so it'll be pretty portable.

+1. Pretty much any Clevo/Sager would be suitable here, almost all of their gaming laptops look pretty business-like.

Lenovo Y50, im pretty sure its around $1100 off of Newegg (not including delivery). But you might have to check that.

and this is why I said no y50 just because linus recommands something does not mean other people want it.
