Thin, powerful laptop for college (1500 euro/1700 dollar)

jan-pieter14

I'm going to college next year and I'll need a laptop to use Adobe AE, Photoshop and other graphical program's but I'll have to carry it on my bike (10km) twice a day.

If it's possible I'd like it to be able to play games like Assassins Creed Unity and GTA V, when it'll eventually be released for PC, at decent settings.

Prefferably;

i7/i5

decent battery life

decent GPU (explained above)

1080p screen (or higher)

750GB HDD (or higher, an SSD if it would fit in the budget)

15-16 inch (17 is hard to get in my bag and 13 inch is a bit to small

reasonably thin and light

1500 euro/1700 dollar

 

Thanks in advance guys!

 

I'm sorry if I made any mistakes but English isn't my native language.

The notebooks that gigabyte do under their name or under aorus fit what you want but neither are good on battery.

Unfortunately, there are currently no gaming notebooks that have good battery life.  You either get a Thinkpad like PC with 10 + hrs, or a gaming laptop with like... 3.  It sucks, I have one with like.. 3 lol.

My brother has the Lenovo Y40, it gets around 8 hours of real-world battery life if you're just doing regular stuff.

This one looks pretty decent and under 1000 euros.

Thanks for the suggestion!
