Fast 17" laptop needed but not fast video

gabrielstern · Dec 10, 2013

Sorry for the earlier posting. I'm looking for a fast laptop with a 17" screen, but don't need fast video since this is for a music app that has almost nothing going on video-wise. I'm hoping that might save me some money. Needs to be roughly 2.6 Ghz and have at least 6 gigs of memory. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Gabriel

Thanks yoyomah 20. Close, but I've found that I do need 4 cores.

Sorry to be a PITA, but I don't have much experience with AMD cpu's, and don't want to make the leap now. $2000 is not a problem for me, but I just don't want much of the money going into the screen and video "card". It just needs to be a very fast quad core I7, with a 17" screen.

Ok

Oh ok you didn't specifiy a budget so I assumed it was in the medium laptop range. Here, check this out: http

It's hard to find an i7 without a dedicated graphics card, this one it still fairly cheap for an i7 and 8gb of ram

Well, thanks YoYoMah20. I think you've found a nice solution for me. I might look at the Lenovo line for a slightly faster processor, but even this laptop might be just the ticket.
