I will be commuting to College on the train. The ride is about 2 hours each way. I am a Computer Science major and need to have a very fast computer. I already have a gaming desktop so i will not be using the 2 in 1 for that.

I dont have a particular budget but id like nothing more than 1600.

Thanks guys.
 


Lenovo recently rolled out this Y720 15 2-in-1:

Scroll down and locate the $1.049 Web Special. You get a quad-core Kaby Lake i7 CPU and a 2GB dedicated GTX 1050 card. RAM and storage may seem a bit on the low end, but both components can be upgraded later on.

As a computer science major you are likely to need a powerful quad-core CPU for heavy compilations, and the graphics card will allow you to play fairly sophisticated games. Throw in another $29 to get a ThinkPad Pen to use with the multi-touch AES digitizer panel.

Cheers,
GreyCatz.

Was wondering about the battery life? Is it good?
