Faex 486 / 8,687 Report Post Posted February 11, 2018 Looking for a new laptop under $1,000 for Computer Science as well as animations and low-level gaming. Currently looking at Acer Swift 3, Lenovo Flex 5 14 inch, and the Lenovo Yoga 710, but I'd appreciate if you would recommend which one is the best for me or any other laptop. http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198058101056/ "...You do a thing and it becomes the paint others will use on their canvas of the internet for their memes" - Michael Stevens, Vsauce ________________________________ 2014 - 2020 Thanks for the good times, kings.

Faex 486 / 8,687 Report Post Posted February 11, 2018 Went to BestBuy today and looked at some of them. Couldn't find the Swift 3 or the Flex 5, but I found the HP Envy and the Lenovo Yoga series. Right now, I'm going to save up for the Yoga 720, since the Envy is kind of big for me http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198058101056/ "...You do a thing and it becomes the paint others will use on their canvas of the internet for their memes" - Michael Stevens, Vsauce ________________________________ 2014 - 2020 Thanks for the good times, kings.
