Need Help Choosing A Laptop

[vSyNd1c4t3]

Ok guys, I don't know much about Laptop CPUs and GPUs, but I know a fair amount about Desktop CPUs and GPUs.

 

The laptop will be used for...

Web Surfing, Photoshop, Microsoft Suite, and maybe some gaming. It's really going to be used more for Work and Photoshop though, as my Main Computer is my Gaming Computer. (Specs in Sig)

 

My budget is $600, maybe more, depending on how much I can sell my Old Gaming Computer for. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/BWdkK8

 

The price that I sell my Old Computer for =/= my budget.

 

I planned on buying something brand new from a store...

 

Microcenter, Frys Electronics, Best Buy, ect.

 

Edit: I could buy from an online store if it was worth the wait.

 

Anyway, any suggestions will need a description of why it's being suggested and why it is the best Laptop for my uses.

 

I will have an extra 120GB SSD I can put in it, as long as it has the space, so that would be a plus.

 

I would want 8GB of RAM at least.

 

Edit:

Oh, and it must have a Numpad.

Just fyi numpad means 99% of the time you are looking for a 15.6in or higher. I do have to say that in my experience getting laptops for cheap doesn't save money/time as they shit out way faster than desktops and don't offer anywhere near the same upgradability.

I know you said you have a specific budget, but me personally I never recommend laptops of that size below the 900-1000 usd mark as you really do get what you pay for. (Btw the price to performance ratio of laptops is awful.)

ok, well I still need a Laptop for that price range. So I guess I'm still waiting for some good results.

I currently use the I7 version and I can play CS:GO and even program on it, but I'm not sure about the I5 version though.

Yea that's probably as good as you will get for the price, unfortunately I5 for laptop is actually a dual core which is kinda sad. Also you really won't be able to do anything more demanding than cs:go on it with that particular onboard graphics.

Looks like a great deal to me. Just make sure that the seller is trustworthy other than that it's overall a great buy.
