Hello UK laptop help please....

[catbert90]

Hello guys just wondering if any of you are able to help...

Im looking for a high performance laptop around the £500 mark but cant seem to find much to help me online for the UK laptop market....

Would you say this is a good deal? http/www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/Lenovo_Z580_Windows_7_Laptop__M81E2UK/version.asp#maindesc

Any help and recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Rob.

Hi

If you want a GAMING high performance laptop you NEED to add another £1000 to your budget, or just get a gaming PC...

All the best Brett

Hey, check out the Samsung in my thread here .

Both Lenovo and Samsung have a £100 cashback scheme on certain models atm, so you can get a better machine for nearer your budget (also they're slightly cheaper on Amazon, around £570 - £630 after cashback)

The lenovo in my link is just a higher spec model than the one you found, having an i7 CPU and a Blu-Ray drive. But for the £130 difference in price, I dont think it's worth it.

The samsung, on the other hand, is pretty much the same spec as the on in your link, except it has a Matt screen and a slightly better graphics card. You'll have to decide yourself whether a £70 increase in price is justifiable.

I'd say the one you have there suits your needs perfectly, and go for that. I'm actually quite tempted with that one now! I didnt see that one in the list of laptops available for cashback haha
