Worth a shot.
What is your current budget?:
$800-1100
What part are you looking for? Why do you need it?:
I need a new laptop. My current one has terrible specs and I can barely run W7 + AutoCAD, Photoshop or MapleStory or any sort of application on it without closing out of other stuff first.
What parts are in your current computer? Be as specific as possible. Links to Newegg/Tigerdirect are best. If you have a pre-built, include the make and model.
I'm using a Toshiba Satellite right now. Nothing to salvage there. I could probably still use it as a backup computer, anyway.
How do you intend to use this new part or new computer? What's the heaviest load it's likely to encounter?
I'm a college student and I need to be able to take my computer around with me, and prefer a 13~15" monitor size. I plan on using it just for everyday work and gaming. I'm not a HUGE gamer and I rarely play any super high-end graphics games, so I don't need crazy specs. Just good enough to play current games and maybe games 2 years from now on medium settings and being able to alt-tab to do other things without any lag issues.
If you live anywhere other than the United States, please indicate your country.
N/A
I have an MSDNAA account and my college provides some free software so I'm set in that department. I can order a new computer without needing to pay for any software, including an OS.
