How are you all doing? I was hoping this community would help me sift through all the products out there on the market. I did research myself but I had a meltdown with too many laptops and their unique configurations. Well, I am going to start college this fall so I am in need of a laptop. I was hoping to purchase or if need be, build, one by August. Feel free to change whatever you want too. I am hoping to get a budget laptop that I can do some gaming on but if thats impossible then I'll just have to deal with it. I am perfectly fine with purchasing last year's models as well even refurbished if need be. Thanks.
Budget: $400 but some leg room at $500 tops.
Usage: Internet, movies every once in a while, gaming (RTS and turn based; CIV IV-V, Anno Series, Age of Empires III), Microsoft Office
OS: Windows 7, Im sick of XP hahaha
Graphics Card: It seems that integrated will probably be better with this budget
Screen: Whatever I can get
RAM: 4 GB+
Hard Drive: 250 GB+
Processor: No preference but I heard that Intel is better
Website/Store: No preference, I've been looking at ebay to catch any deals but usually I shop at newegg for electronics.
