Hey all,
I'm in the market to buy a new laptop and I have no idea where to start looking. Hoping someone on here can point me in the right direction, or just help me to make a well-informed decision! Here's what I'm looking for:
1) Affordable: I think this is a given, but I don't have all the money in the world. I'm in college and I'm looking for something that will give me the most "bang for my buck." It needs to be reliable and in the 800-1200 dollar range.
2) General needs: It needs to do all normal-laptoppy things. I'd like it to have good battery life so I can take it to class or the library. It should be compact enough so that I don't break my back lugging it to places, and should have enough processing power that I don't have to wait for my windows to load.
3) Gaming: I am a casual gamer, mostly World of Warcraft and League of Legends and I'd like the computer to be able to run these programs very smoothly. Ideally, it would be nice to run them on max settings, but I'm not sure if my budget can handle that. I've attached the system requirements, although I'm not sure if that will help!
League of Legends

World of Warcraft

Those are basically all of my needs! I just can't make heads or tails of laptops and I really need some help! Any insight would be incredible!
Thank you!
Evan
