Capsaicin Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I have a Lenovo v570 and it's a very good laptop for the price. I'd recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest disparaissant Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 i ended up getting this recently havent had any complaints yet! i guess the display could probably be nicer and it only has one speaker but considering the price i'm terrifically happy with it.

Muflontillah Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I bought Samsung RF511(17´-screen) laptop with i7(Sandy Bridge) with 2.00Ghz(8CPUs), 6144 RAM, Hd Graphics with NVIDIA GeForce GT 540m,DirectX11 included, etc. for some 700Euros some 5 days ago. The thing is that if you spend a good time searching you can find a nice model available around your place somewhere. I am not totally sure if this is the right time to invest into a new one (my old one was damaged so much that I had to get something else), but my opinion is that with nowadays DirectX 11 computers there is still a lot of time before next technology/price boom, although you say that you don´t want it for gaming so reasoning with these models running smoothly games that are coming in next couple of years is really a waste of time ( sorry for the english, haven´t been writing in it since). I don´t know what you want the laptop for as well as I don´t know what price bulk you think about but I would go for the classic cheapest price/best components search.
