Laptop

[starsarethebest9]

I am looking to get a new laptop but don't know what to get.  That is why i would like some help.  I am looking to get a laptop with screen size between 13 inches and 15 inches.  I want is to have Intel's 5th gen cpu and i want it to have at least either a 970m or a 980m.  I also want to be able to upgrade it down the line as well.  I know some companies are going the same route as apple where they make it hard for you to up for people to upgrade.  Budget i would like to stay under 2k if possible.  I am also a college student.

How much do you think a laptop like that is going to cost then?

Buy Asus. No matter what, buy from them.

Please no fanboy bullshit.

 

OP: have a look at MSI's GT60 and GS60. If upgradeability is very important, then consider a Notebook with a Clevo base

upgradable is VERY important to me.

I'd only buy from Asus and MSI for actual performance. Oh and Venom. For example, they sell this within your price range https://www.venomcomputers.com.au/globalstore/venom-blackbook-15-s-pro-with-gtx-960m-m12408/

Which MSI or Asus laptop would you recommended?

I'd recommend this.

 

Though it does not have Intel's 5th Gen, but the difference between the 4720HQ and 5700HQ is not a lot.

There's the Clevo P650SG. Comes with a 980M, a 15.6" full HD IPS, 3 cooling fans, runs quiet (when not playing games, like you're in class), 4 RAM slots, 2 M.2 SSD slots with one of them being a PCIe M.2 slot for SSDs like the Samsung SM951, and 2 SATA slots, about 2.5kg and 28.8mm thick. I have this and I love it. I bring it to school everyday.

You can get it from like 1799 USD.

 

 

 

EDIT: This has about 4 hours of battery life from my experience while in class in like high performance mode, your mileage may vary.
