Hi Everyone,

 

I am in the market for a new laptop I am hoping someone here can offer me some suggestions, I am from the UK so preferably UK Stock.

I have been looking at the Xiaomi Mi Notebook Pro but I am a bit hesitant about ordering from China/Hong Kong.

 

My Budget is: Around £1000

 

I am after something powerful and light, mainly be for web browsing and light gaming, I.e rocket league, Runescape, Age of Empires, a lot of simulation and RTS games.

 

I am hoping to get a decent quad core i7 with at least 8GB of from and some sort of dedicated video chip? 

 

Touchscreen and Thunderbolt would be a nice bonus but not super needed. 

 

Many Thanks
