Recommend me a laptop to use for programming

Anything can handle 'programming'. What you're actually looking for is just a laptop that can handle recent games, as in a 'gaming' laptop.

Look for something with a GTX 950/960 in it.

A regular laptop can handle games like counter strike, civilization, MOBAs, etc.

It can't handle stuff like BF4, crysis, witcher, and so on. So it just depends what kind of games OP wants to play.

Gaming laptops are fucking trash. You should kill yourself for recommending that.

X260
With the extended battery
The thing lasts at least 16 hours of use
Also uses the new Intel skylake chips

Can you elaborate

>>57101298
Because you don't need a fucking $5000 laptop with dual gtx 1080s that gets to 150 Celsius to do programming, which is what op requested

and the kicker
>still not really good at running games

The right answer is always get a desktop for gaming and the cheapest laptop for school work. Or stop gaming crap AAA titles.

Very subjective

We aren't in 2013, the 1060 is very decent and not hot...

No not at all. You just have cognitive problems. Keep that in mind next time you try to dish out some of your horrible advice.
