Muffins Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Not really, you can find better for cheaper. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Scripts Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 What for? Because those are the least you should have, if you want to use this laptop more then 1-2 years without stressing the fuck out with how slow it goes ;) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Scripts Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Good deal? Just using it for programming only, not playing any games Lenovo has some decently priced laptops, I'm just running i5 & 8gb ram Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ericthecmh Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Converting to USD says about $520. I would not buy that, but it depends heavily on what you want out of the computer. I can't tell if it's an ultrabook, but if it is and has excellent battery life, then I'd say the price seems somewhat reasonable. Have you checked: http://www.amazon.com/Dell-XPS-Ultrabook-Laptop-Computer/dp/B00I9HU29K/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1444769176&sr=1-1&refinements=p_n_feature_eighteen_browse-bin%3A6819967011%2Cp_36%3A2421887011 It's amazon though, idk if it ships to you since idk where you live, but it's looks like a good deal.

Ambassador Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 i5 ATLEAST, 4 GB of ram is do able but 8GB preferred. Getting a dedicated GPU for a laptop is dum. Pay more money for a shit card just so it's portable ? Battery life will suck ass anyways so there goes your portability. If it's for casual use, i5, 4gb ram, SSD. otherwise i5 8gb ssd or i7 if you got the money but won't be a big difference unless you know you'll be running some intensive shit. only thing I like about that laptop is matte screen.

Pharmacistt Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Technically you could build one that's 3x better for roughly the same price. Pre-built's come with warranty's (typically, otherwise don't buy it) which is the only reason why you should ever concern yourself with a pre-built machine as they will always be far more expensive that a machine that is custom built with the same exact parts. I'd recommend doing a little more shopping, comparing prices and specs to find the perfect PC for the perfect price. And if you really need a pre-built do not buy it if it doesn't have a warranty.

It has up to 7hrs battery life (6 cell), I just want it to do work with (Programing), no games, and I value battery life. The main reason the price is a bit higher is because I chose the 1080p screen If battery life is your priority, I would then suggest a mac actually. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diclonius Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Ignore the idiots, that i3 is perfectly fine. That cpu actually beats most laptop i5s. i3, i5, i7 doesn't really mean very much, it's all just marketing. That IPS panel is really nice too. You can't really game on a £400 laptop so getting a dedicated GPU isn't important since it's going to be shit anyway. Get 8GB of RAM and I say it's worth it.
