Having issues Deciding

[TheGhzGuy]

Hello all!

I don't need a laptop as of this moment, however my Dell XPS 12 (2014) has some drawbacks that are starting to annoy me. Mostly issues with not having enough RAM. Only 4GB. I plan to do some light CAD work on this new laptop, along with maybe some gaming (But this capability might not need to happen due to a new living situation, where I'll always have my desktop with me at home). I was considering an Asus UX305, but I worry the Core M3 just isn't enough power to do the things I want. I know AMD was advertising "Console Class" performance in Ultrabooks with the new Polaris architecture, so I think I should wait. Any other thoughts?

Be careful with the AMD's advertising, as well as they say it might preform, until you try it you won't know. I've been disappointed numerous times especially with A and FX series that I completely boycotted them. Try going to a store and giving it a go, look at the real life benchmarks ( Games / CAD ) and see how it performs.

Well Polaris has yet to release yet, so I will, just in May or June.
