  1. Question about processor/ram when choosing laptop


    Hey guys, would you rather have a laptop with a Intel i3 and 8gb of ram or i5 with 4gb of ram. My buddy is getting a laptop with these 2 configurations, obviously it’s because of his budget and he asked me which one. I would select i3 with 8 but I’m not so sure

    :)

  2. Help choosing a Win 10 laptop

    Take a gander at this list of laptop CPUs

    PassMark CPU Benchmarks - New Laptop CPUs Performance

    See if you can find something with an Intel i3 processor in your price range.

    The i3 Passmark scores seem to begin around 3000 and go up from there.

    They are a step up from the dreaded Celerons.
