Hello, Dylan:

Here's a 15.6" Lenovo Ideapad 300, at €539:
http/www.computerstore.nl/product/718331/category-223533/lenovo-ideapad-300-15-80q701e0mh.html

It has a 128GB SSD and the dual-core Skylake i3 comes with the Intel HD 520 IGP which should handle your needs. Only 4GBs of RAM, but it can be upgraded to 8GBs.

Cheers,
GreyCatz.

This one has the best price for 550 euros in NL:
https/tweakers.net/pricewatch/474189/medion-akoya-e6421-(30019784-30019947-qwerty)/specificaties/

But only has 4GB RAM, you'd have to check if upgrading RAM is possible.

Use the Tweakers forum to ask for opinions. The people there are more aware of the prices and such in The Netherlands.

Pretty underpowered for the cost, an i3 and 4GB of RAM for 539 Euros is a bit of a ripoff to put it lightly.
Get stuff shipped from the UK via Amazon, it's in the EU, so shipping will be cheap.

He should try Tweakers first, as that's the site where you can find the best prices for his location.

I've checked your links and they are good deals actually.

But that only has a M3-6Y30 and poor battery life, see my links above, you can get an i5 6200U laptop and ship it to the Netherlands in budget range.

Yeah but he seems to want on that's below 14 inch. Can't get one with an i5 etc. for that price.

@OP, for a little more screen size (15.6") and you can get a significantly more powerful CPU and a 1080p display.
Up to you but I highly recommend it.
