Help me find a better laptop? (Tipping $1/1m)

Hey bros,

I recently started playing Runescape again and I got tired of sharing our home computer so I bought a laptop (linked down below). This lap top is not running Old School Runescape that good and is pretty slow in general. Amazon said I can return it so I will basically have $230 to add towards a new laptop. Does anyone here have any suggestions for a good and affordable laptop? I would also like to be able to comfortably run a bot or two as well as playing Old School Runescape normally. If someone can lead me to a decent laptop that would meet my needs I will tip them 1m for their efforts. Thanks guys!

Current (returnable) laptop: Amazon.com: Asus 14 inch FHD (1920 x 1080) Premium Portable Laptop, Intel Dual-Core Processor up to 2.48GHz, 4GB RAM, 32GB eMMC, HDMI, VGA, Webcam, Bluetooth, WiFi, Windows 10: Computers & Accessories

 

yeah buddy, that laptop has a 32gb ssd as its harddrive.. my laptop alone needs 30gb for a recovery part ion and you have 2gb left.... don't think u could do anything with 32gb hard drive lmao.. Just look for another laptop think u missed that part I mean a 14" with 32gb ssd?????

try that, ur sacrificing all those extras that u had with the first laptop (higher res etc..) but this is one of the few quad core intel laptops u can get at that budget 100% guaranteed.

 

What's your budget? If it's light gaming, then you should look into some of Dell budget gaming laptops, they're probably going for $500-$600.

 

Here's a few options:

Main things to make sure you get is an i5/i7, probably worth checking a benchmark of the cpu. I'd also recommend an SSD drive and you want at least 8GB ram.

 

I bought a laptop off of ebay for $180 which is only 12" but it is a nice DELL laptop with 8gb RAM , it only has 250gb HD but as i don't care about the space that much it's fine, It works like a charm, I get 180 FPS on league of legends and of course max FPS on runescape.

 

This. If we don't know your budget and full requirements we could suggest some pretty expensive laptops.

If you only want some basic applications and a few OSRS instances an i5 processor with 8 GB ram is more than enough. You can get better upgrades though, if your budget allows that.

 

tbh it seems like you're not planning on spending a lot, so just buy an old thinkpad on ebay for $80~ and slap a new hdd and some extra ram in it and the machine will be perfect for you
