1. What is your budget? $1000-ish
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
Anything in the 14-16" range
3. What screen resolution do you want? 1920x1080 would be nice but not necessary
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop? It would be my sole computer at college next year. I'll need it for 3d modelling and such being a mechanical engineering major.
5. How much battery life do you need? The more the better
6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
I don't play very many computer games currently because my family's pc is very slow. I will probably play a couple FPS games though.
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)
3d modelling and occasional video editing
8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need? Probably whatever comes stock on any laptop is fine
9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links.
i've been looking at hp.com. I would really like to get a np9130/50 but would need to justify the added price with my parents.
10. How long do you want to keep your laptop? I would like it to last me through college
11. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD writer
12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons.
Like I said the Sager np9130/50s seem very nice. Ive looked at the 15.6" hp. Malibal laptops also look nice but again, I would need to justify the added price with my parents.
13. What country do you live in? USA
14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
I would like to have an i7 and 16gb of ram. I don't know if that is necessary for my applications though. Since ill be doing more 3d modelling than gaming i've seen talk of the quadro graphics being better than the geforce but haven't been able to find those close to my price range. If I can justify the added price I can probably go up to $1250.
Thanks
