Best laptop?

[rf9661]

Hello!
 

I'm looking for a laptop. I'm not too sure if I want an Ultrabook or a Gaming laptop but I know what I'll be doing on it. I will be doing LIGHT gaming ( games like CS:GO and PayDay 2 ), lots of YouTube, and minimal school work using programs such as Microsoft Word. I don't really care for a touchscreen since I don't find they work all that well. I'm currently looking at the Razer Blade Stealth and the new Mac Book Pros ( ones that will be released in September. ) Please let me know. Also, I have a budget of a maximum of $1500 USD.

 

Regards,

Richard

You should give us a budget range to work with, or we're gonna suggest something with like a 6700K and a GTX 980.

Well, I use this:

https://www.amazon.com/G751JY-VS71-WX-17-Inch-GeForce-Version/dp/B01DT4A2K6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1470631664&sr=8-3&keywords=i7+980m+laptop

But it might be too big for you, and it's way too good for the stuff you will be doing, but it's a very reliable laptop besides the HDD which is not as good as an SSD.

Avoid the Razer BS. It runs hot, loud and the keyboard is absolute garbage. Gaming on it is not possible.

I'd suggest the Asus GL502 Strix if you want small, powerful and good battery life.

Well, he did say light gaming though, so Pascal not really a important thing from my point of view.

Even so, Maxwell laptop prices will drop when newer things are released.

Do you think prices will drop in mid-November for that laptop? I'm looking to buy it then.
