Help needed in buying a laptop please!
 

It's me again with another buying dilemma!

Which laptop to get?

The minimum specs should be:

17.3 inch screen
i3 processor/i5/i7 or a better/equivalent AMD processor.
3GB RAM
5+ hours Battery life
Preferably a Dedicated Graphics card

I have so far found this:
http://www.comet.co.uk/p/Laptops/buy...70#fulldetails

Downsides:
Shared graphics card
Webcam resolution unknown (is it 1.3megapixels?)

Price:£479.99 (and I get 10% discount), so £433 for me.

Anyone suggest other laptops please?

is that around your budget? you aint gonna get an i5 with dedicated gfx for less than £600/700 and an i7 will be a jump again

Re: Help needed in buying a laptop please!
 

Budget is about £500-550. I don't mind sticking with an i3/AMD equivalent (or better)

btw, you'll be lucky to get 5 hours battery life with a 17" screen.

That comet laptop that I posted has a 5.25 hour battery life I believe... I hope they are not lying...

Prices a bit high... the £500 price was after trading in an old laptop!

But thanks for the links, keep them coming please =D

yeah but when you say 500-550 and you did use the word about then 20-40 quid over budget if the specs right isnt a lot is it?

Re: Help needed in buying a laptop please!
 

Oh yes I agree with that, but just comparing it to the spec & price I found... thanks for your help though =)

More links welcome :)
