Hello guys,

I'm in the market for a cheap gaming laptop that is around 700€. I found a Lenovo y50-70 with a intel i5, gtx960m, full hd ips display, 1tb sshd and 4 gigs of ram (I will upgrade it to 8 gigs once I buy it because 8gigs of ram from the factory adds up 100€ which I think is a rip off)

So the question is - is it worth the money or is there better solutions? I basically want a machine that would be smooth on day to day use (youtube, office, photoshop, spotify and etc.) and could run some games when I feel like gaming.

Thanks for your help.

If you add 40$ or 36€ you can buy the dell insprion 7559, I can say from owning one the are amazing!!! so much room for upgrading. Also Linus did a review on it a while back and is the reason i bought mine. https://goo.gl/8YjEUM here is linus video on that laptop. Also I use lightroom/photoshop all the time and it handles it like boss :)

In my country it is 1000€ and adds up 300€ (330$)… But still, thanks for your suggestion.
