I’m literally lost when it comes to thing like this, but I’m in the market for a laptop for basic things like KTT2 and playing Warcraft 3. Does anyone have any idea for something that’s not too expensive but works fine? Or even where to get one. Refurbished is fine I just need some guidance

Kinda hard to recommend s*** without knowing the budget

Avoid refurbished unless the company selling it is willing to give at least a 90 day warranty on it.

I mean ideally I’d spend less than this but the most I’d like to go is $650

P much the best deal i see after a quick search (i only checked newegg)

You fw Warcraft 3?

I used to heavy when o was younger. Haven’t played it in probably 4 years but I’m friending to get back into it

you wont get much for $650, if you can deal with something like this:

I'd get a Intel NUC with a i5 if you want something sorta portable, it'll last you much longer and probably perform better then any laptop at that price range imo

I’m mostly looking for something I can move around the house with and watch movies in bed. Something with a monitor isn’t really ideal but thanks

can't beat this price for performance

sips power, battery should last twice as long as a intel 6 core cpu

also the graphics are vega graphics so it would game way better than any intel igpu

whatever you do stay away from asus
the fans be annoying as s***
i gotta get a new pc

Compaq presario laptop

Heard of this, performs just like (new) MBP and (new) XPS for the 1/3 of their price

Lord Ryzen

Lenovo in general is well received too

probably the model you have. my asus is really kicking it & asus is a great brand overall - probably best bang for your buck

u have a laptop? i googled m it and it’s pretty common with asus unfortunately

what's your issue? fan issues are common among all brands

it goes crazy for like min, full power than suddenly off and it just repeats like that

have you updated all your drivers and windows? I've noticed sometimes with bad windows updates the fan has gone crazy for me once

With laptops there ALWAYS comes a time where you gotta open that s*** up and get the dust out from the fans, heatsink, motherboard, etc. Only way to do it correctly is to take your laptop partially apart

Trying to blow out the dust by blowing on the fan exhaust is only pushing that dust deeper into your PC.

It's not that hard, you can youtube that s***.
