Hai /g/ I need a good laptop for around £350 - £400. I'll be mostly working on it and possibly playing occasional games on low settings. I was hoping for an Intel I7 or thereabouts but I'm not sure. Can anyone help?
Make sure it has at least 64GB of RAM.

Actually I have a lot of spare RAM lying around. RAM really isn't a problem

I'm thinking of getting a Acer Aspire 8930 T9400 Nvidia 9700M. Is this good enough to play 1080p 10bit?

T420 on Fleabay. Replace the optical drive with the HDD and the HDD with a SSD. Add another stick of RAM. Done.

You can play 1080p 10bit on first gen i5M.

>I'm thinking of getting a Acer Aspire
Idiot.

These both seem like good laptops.
I'll take a look around. I5 seems to be decent enough but I was hoping for a processor that had enough cores as 2 doesn't seem to be decent enough.

This.
If you buy new for 350-400 bucks you're getting a turd, most likely with 1366x768 screen.
So a turd that gives eye cancer.

Yeah, keep shopping for a four core i7 for 350 Lbs Archer Sterling. I'm sure you'll find it. In five years.
Alright lads, I have roughly $1500 moosebucks to spend on a laptop that I can use for class.
The only things I need it to do are;
>Video playback
>Somewhat capable at Photoshop
(Its not a mandatory requirement but its something I like to do on the side for some extra money. I have it on my workstation at home but I would like to do some light project on the go if possible)
>Note taking
>"""light""" gaming
Like osu! or Hearthstone.

T420 for 200 bucks.
Spend the rest on hookers, booze and gambling.
>i7 for £350
>"gayming" "laptop"
>Acer
Just fucking kill yourself m8.
>>53902723
You do realize that almost every single laptop has 2 cores, right? Including most of i5 and i7 ones.

CENSOR THIS RIGHT NOW!

For $400 you're not going to get anything good.
If you ~need~ to play vidya gaems then something with an AMD APU is probably your best option at that price.
If you can live without your button clicking addiction then you should get a Chromebook and upgrade its storage capacity.

T430 for 300 bucks
Spend the rest on maple syrup
>>53902576
Get an i5 thinkpad. Get 120gb ssd. Upgrade ram and probably still 100 within budget
Not OP, thinking of buying a ASUS UX305.
It's going for £584 on Amazon at the moment, best bang for that money?
I'm going to be using it while taking business trips, so no gayming, just web browsing, movies/animu.
Was tempted by the Surface 4 but slightly more expensive and less ram.
What do you guys think about this laptop?
Personally I think its really worth the price.
I'll be using it to mainly do stocks day-trading and coding/programming for class.

From the thumbnail of that image, I thought it was a sculpture of one of those Mongolian eagles hunting wolves.
