Hello! I’m planning to buy a laptop for school mostly, programming and some gaming. If anyone has advice on which model to buy please comment. I wanted to buy the hp victus 16 but then friends said hp isn’t a good choice, they recommended lenovo, unfortunately I’m not too familiar with the brand. Just to narrow the options, I’d prefer an nvidia graphics card, 16-32GB ram and I think at least 1TB, it can be less if it can be later expanded. My budget is max 1350$.
Thank you for any advice!
There is a certain bad attitude on the part of some against HP. I’ve never understood it. I’ve had a half dozen HP laptops in the last 15-20 yrs and never really had any issue with them.
I recently gained a Lenovo Legion Pro 5i with which I am very pleased. i7 13th, nvidia 4070, 32G, 2x1T. Lower configurations of the 5i can probably be found at your price point (16G, 4050 or 4060, that sort of thing). I’m not a gamer, I work in engineering simulation, but I look for gamer configurations because that’s where I find build quality that’s high enough and component selection at the higher end.
Be kind to your eyes, get a good display. The 5i’s 2560x1600 (16:10) 240Hz is gorgeous.
