Hey guys, not entirely sure where to put this thread but fuck it lets try here...
Okay so basically I'm looking for a new laptop, nothing extremely fancy but I'm a bit of a retard when it comes to computer systems, particularly hard drives and shit.
Anyway
1. Yes, it has to be a laptop for college I'm bringing it to my classes
2. No I don't want a MacBook or anything Apple
3. My budget is capped at $1,500 USD
As for the details of the system, I'm not insanely picky but I want something with a good core processor, and definitely a nice graphics card. Despite needing this for school, I obviously game and need something better than my shitty old Intel that can't even run mine craft lmao.
I don't play huge storage-hoarding games, however I do want something that can efficiently multi-task and run steam and Java programs / games.
Tl;Dr: Budget of $1,500, need a laptop for school / gaming. Decent storage size, good processor, good graphics card.
Any thoughts please guys? Thank you :)
Bump again :(
You should use your shitty old laptop for schoolwork until the laptops with the Nvidia 10xx series come out. They're apparently supposed to be on-par with the desktop line and are your best bet for a gaming laptop.

Idk man how long is the wait? I'm kinda rushed to make a decision
ThinkPad T420/T430 + eGPU covers everything you said but you wouldn't be able to game on the go, which is pretty stupid imo so no downsides there.

I've actually heard this reccomendafion in the last definetly gonna have to look into it. I don't care about gaming on the go tho, I assume you mean gaming during transportation like on a plane or car?
Anyone else?

I mean gaming away from your home where typically you have like one hour at most to play something.
I'm saying a t420/430 because according to your post you want:
>decent storage
Those can use 2 HDDs + mSATA SSD so go wild with storage.
>good processor
Socketed CPU so you can put a good quad core there.
>good graphics card
The dGPUs on those models aren't the best but you can use the ExpressCard slot for a plug and play external gpu setup, which is upgradeable but obviously not mobile.
