Hello! I've made a thread in the past about building my own desktop; however, due to school I now need a laptop. This laptop will be used for: School, Gaming, Web-surfing, Programming.
I've looked into it, and have found the XPS 13 to be my best option, although, due to it's integrated graphics I do not think it will cut the gaming portion. Another option was the ASUS ZENBOOK UX303LN but I really do not want a touch-screen laptop. If anyone can find a slim laptop that fits my needs that would be great. Thank you!
