Hello, Im trying to look for a decent laptop for CAD work (Solid Edge and others) and Gaming Ideal budget is under £600 Im thinking at least 500GB HDD & i5 or i7 considering these: [url]http://www.johnlewis.com/lenovo-g510-laptop-intel-core-i7-8gb-ram-1tb-15-6-black/p1101267[/url] [url]http://www.johnlewis.com/acer-aspire-v5-573-laptop-intel-core-i7-8gb-ram-1tb-15-6-iron/p1097299[/url] Anyone got any reccomendations?
Well, according to Solid Edge system requirements, both laptops will have the recommend requirements, but only have integrated graphics. If you don't mind saving a little more, you could get a Lenovo Y510p that has SLI 755m GPUs. What kind of games do you play anyway? Also, if you can't raise your budget, get the Lenovo.
is integrated graphics that bad then? Likely i will get the Lenovo when i can (short on cash, just working out what to save up) EDIT: Lenovo Y510p is hardly just a little more, its just under half the price of the other one D:
Well, what games do you play nuttyboffin?
Admittedly not many, usually things on the level of Anno 2070
Definitely not the Acer. Every single Acer Aspire I have come across has been a pile of shit. With exception of ones in the last 2 years, which have all been steaming piles of shit.
Really? my sister has had an acer for the last year or so and its been fine but okey :P
Is it an Aspire? I've come across a few Acers that weren't bad, but none of those were Aspires.
Go for the Lenovo then if you just play RTS/Strategy games. It's a good brand.
