IMPORTANT EXTRA INFO:

-The weight of the laptop does not matter unless its over 5kg.

-I would prefer a 15 inch laptop

-battery life is not my number 1 priority, Gaming ill be plugged in anyway, so It just has to survive while I am at school.

-These are currently the laptops the dutch retailer is selling atm for a “cheap” price I guess 

**That have decent specs I want**

 

 

Please give me as much feedback!

 

If you think I am missing that you need to make a decision please tell me!

It'll be more than enough, you'll be fine for a long time.

It's a overheating machine

 

Could you list out all 8300H/8750H laptops so that I can pick for you? Also, what's your preferred weight and battery life?
