1. What is your budget?
Less than $600 preferably
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
15.6"
Also must have a keypad and a mouse that has buttons distinct from the track pad, hate using integrated ones.
3. What screen resolution do you want?
Higher the better but not really a big deal
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
Portable
5. How much battery life do you need?
2-4 hours
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)?
Skyrim on like medium graphics would be the benchmark
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)
Nothing harder than playing the odd game
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
500gb minimum
9. How long do you want to keep your laptop?
As long as possible at least 2 -3 years
10. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ?
DVD ROM
11. What country do you live in?
Australia but I have a friend in the USA who is flying out here soon and is willing to take a laptop purchased in the USA with them so laptops from the US are viable.
My laptops (Lenovo Y570) malfunctioning and I'm pretty sure the motherboards dead, so I'm looking to find a replacement if it is unrepairable. I'm also in the middle of building a gaming desktop PC which might continue depending on how much the laptop sets me back so I don't really need the laptop to be able to play games on the highest settings because I'll have my desktop. I would just like it if gaming on them for short periods of time would be plausible.
Other than that it would only be used for writing assignments, browsing the internet, watching movies & tvs and little things like that.
Thank you in advance
