1. What is your budget?
$750 is the max I'd like to pay.
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
Preferably 13 or 14 inch. If the laptop is 15 inches I'll still consider it, but smaller is better for me.
3. What screen resolution do you want?
1080p
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
Nah I have a strong desktop for gaming, but I'd like it to be fairly powerful.
5. How much battery life do you need?
The more the better. This is for college and I spend all day on campus between work and school so the less time I'm plugged into an outlet the better.
6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
If it can game, yay if not its not a big deal. I have an i5 and r9 380 in my desktop for gaming.
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)
Light programming in IDEs like Codeblocks
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
SSD is a must. If i can get a small ssd and a hdd then that's great. Prefer 128 or 256gb. I know 512gb are way to expensive.
9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links.
Bestbuy.com, Amazon.com, Newegg.com

I need it for the next 3-4 years for college
