Need Help Finding a New Laptop

[Purpletalon55]

Hi,

I am looking at getting a new laptop and I have a few requirements that I am looking for In a laptop and would like the community to help me find the best machine for my needs.

Budget:$600-900
Display size 13-15.6 inch (I dont like big laptops so nothing larger)
Display Resolution: 1920x1080

Other things that I am looking for
core i5 processor or higher
8gb ram minimum
dedicated graphics
backlit keyboard

I will be using this laptop both for day to day tasks, when im not using my desktop, as well as the occasional game on world of tanks so it needs to be able to play the game at bare minimum of medium with 50 fps or more.

I will also be using it to do some very light video editing, as my desktop doesnt have a SD card reader, this is a must on whatever laptop i get, i would also prefer to have a disk drive but its not necessary.

Thanks for any assistance



I dont want a laptop that is heavier than 6-8 pounds, I had a Sager that weighed 8 pounds and it was like hauling around a school textbook.

Hi,

Here are 2 laptops that I can suggest that may suit your taste but still fits your budget and what you're looking for, not 100% sure though if these 2 has backlit keyboards.

I saw that acer earlier and thought about buying it. But I hear that the ram is a pain in the ass to upgrade as its on the wrong side of the motherboard, I hate laptop makers who put ram under the keyboard as its a pain to get to and upgrade.

Hi, Here are two options below:

1. If you want a laptop for casual entertainment of game or video, you can choose it. I recommend it for its i5 4210H (2.90 GHz) processing and audio performance.

2. Acer Aspire E 17 is good laptop as well, not very sure with its backlit keyboard, yet for its reasonable price you can consider about it.
