I bot with a $30 Thinkpad x200t.

8GB Ram won't be sufficient, integrated graphics are bad for gaming, display is bad.

Now it comes down to speaker quality, keyboard and weight. If it's relatively heavy, you are better off getting Clevo or other gaming brands. (MSI/Asus)

 

 

8GB of ram will be fine lol, rs runs almost exclusively through the CPU/GPU so idk

but yeah like others said resolution and ssd missing was probably the kicker

Not sure how your stance is against refurbished laptops, but you might want to look at these. For around 450-500 you will have a nice one, but bear in mind that it is not brand new.

I can see that you already did cancel the order. I think thats a great idea, who use 1TB of space on a school laptop anyway? (sure if you work with big files, like stuff from autoCAD etc.)

If you are used to MAC, then a SSD in essential, otherwise you will never experience, boot times close to your mac.. I've always liked lenovo thinkpad series, we use them at work and they are solid machines with good components. If I were in your shoes i would go for a used Lenovo T-model machine with better specs than a new one with bad specs. 

people usually ask these questions beforehand ?

I'm using a HP Envy x360 and this runs like a dream. Albeit this isn't a gaming laptop its for work/runescape a little.

I would say look into HP's Envy line. (they also transform into a Tablet)
