Hello,
I would like to buy a laptop for running some simulations and modelling (Fluent etc.), dual boot (Win 8.1 + Ubuntu) and some moderate gaming (Fifa, F1 2013, etc.)
I have shortlisted these 5 laptops below (sorry for so many of them!). Personally, I liked the Toshiba one.
Will AMD A8 6410 + Radeon R5 M230 be sufficient for running simulations or should I go for A10 5750M + Radeon 8570m or A8 5550M + Radeon 8570 dual graphics or Core i3 4010u + Nvidia GT 820M ( in regards with the processing and gpu capabilities).
Also A10 5750M and A8 5550M have a 35 W TDP while both A8 6410 and i3 4010u have 15W TDP, would that be a concern in terms of thermal management?
I want to make an informed choice. If you could please help me out with some pros and cons. That would be great.
Thank You.
