Hi
i am looking to buy a laptop at around 1000$ usd.
The computer will be used for manly programming, and general use.
Specs i am looking for in a laptop:
8gb ram
256 SSD
I5 CPU
14"
dont think i need a graphics card.
what i had in mind is the asus zenbook ux430ua mainly because of the screen (80% use of the screen) but it has some availability problems in my country.
what laptop is simillar to that in the specs and screen?
i can not find anything like it.

mabye you guys can help?

thank you!
 
Solution
if youre programming you need 4 cores, that ux430ua has only 2 cores - denoted by the U at the end of the numbers = i7 xxxx U

please be aware that compiling can be cpu intense and 2 cores just wont cut it.
