HEELP
Hi i'm soon starting in 10th grade, and i need a new school pc.
Can you people give me some advice on pc's?

I really want serious advice here.
I seriously need help now.

What i want on it:

• It need to be good to write on the tastature
• It need to have some space to save documents on
• It need to have good battery time ( not like 2 houres)
• And at least not to heavy!

I appreciate all the help

just go to newegg.com and find yourself your own computer. use common sense. you shouldnt need that much HDD room for a school computer.. 350 probally would do it.

True, but sad story. I own one, can play nice on ~35 fps but recording laggs too hard.

if you just want it for school this is the kinda thing you wanna get.

In basic terms:
i5
4gb ram
about 300gb hard drive

that should run gta reasonably as well.

Ps get w7 64bit if you can. 32 bit will only use 3.2 gb of the ram.

^^ I have no clue on what you are saying xD
You have a pc that have that on it??

[Trucker_martin]

I have been locking on this pc
Samsung Series 9 NP900X3C

Could a pc expert from this forum lock at it and say what you think?

That samsung is piece of shit.

graphic chip: Intel  -__-
1.7Ghz i5 - srsly
128GB is nowhere near enough for school stuff (windows tends only itself take about 90GB of space)
4GB which is shared with GPU so you got probably about 3.5GB useable after all.

Ok well $500-1500 is a HUGE range for a laptop so i have one question to ask: Is it purely for school and just light gaming or school and heavy gaming? Here are my 2 picks:

Less expensive, good for school work and light gaming:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834230234

More expensive, better option if going to do heavy gaming:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152339

For those who i know are going to claim that "intel Hd 3000 cannot play games" i will say YES it can. My last asus laptop had the same cpu with intel HD 3000 graphics and ran sa-mp on max settings at about 45 FPS. It could also run DiRT 3 on medium, and mw3 on medium as well. Those are the only games i can confirm that run on it because i didnt try anything else but those. I can tell you that hd 3000 will not run battlefield 3 because it does not support shader 5.0

I hope i can be of assistance
