Alright guys i do Automotive tuning into the side and i use a lot of space saving files and logs but i also do gaming. ET mainly.. i’m looking for an all around good laptop, good battery life, performance, and nice amount of storage. i would sacrifice battery life for performance! what’s the best brand? model? processor? how much ram? i mean i’d love to have something that’s over built. i got a pos walmart laptop because i sold my gaming setup for tuning. here’s the requirements for the program i use.

i hate intel so i wont advise to buy anything with intel in it.just my preference.  et will run on almost any laptop.and u can always buy a external hdd for more storage.

 

if u would like to go cheaper buy a nice used one. ive bought a few over yrs for my wife. last one i paid 240 for and its a nice one with big screen.

 

now if money is nothing too you...

I got an ASUS gaming laptop a few months ago, as a backup for my desktop computer.  🤞:crossed fingers: 

 

OOPs!  I got a 15-inch screen, a bit small for my weak eyes! :( 

 

OOPs!  I didn't even think about a camera! 📹 I had to buy a camera to "be at" my Tele-Health video-appointment today!

how are you liking it Red? i’m looking for bigger than 15” screen also haha

 

Yes, that was an OOPs for me.  

 

Well, I could hook it up to my monitor, along with the keyboard and mouse, if it comes to that.

 

Otherwise, it is a lot more modern than this desktop that I build some 9 years ago.  

 

I have not mastered its "laptop culture" yet, nor have I backed up any files to it! 🐌
