Hi guys,
I'm going to need a new laptop for mainly work and a bit of gaming on the side, and I am pretty lost in what is best for me in a sea of online offers. I would really appreciate some advice based on the following:
- Budget: £1000 and can add another £500 ish for my dream laptop ($1,400 - $2,100 for dream laptop).
- Screen size: 14' - 15' ideally.
- Processor: i5 or ideally i7.
- Ram: 8gb (feels like plenty for a laptop?).
- Graphics: a decent graphic card if possible for some mild gaming (1080p, no need for better).
- Storage: SSD (heard a lot of bad stuff on laptop using only hdd).
- Backlit keyboard: preferred but not deal breaking.
- Weight: ideally nothing heavier than 1.8-2kg maximum (3.9pounds), as I will be taking with me on work/leisure trips.
- Noise: I need to be able to take it into meetings without it sounding like a jet fighter (I would actually have purchased the Razer Blade laptop, had I not read about the noise issues yesterday).
Thanks for any input!
Edit: Wondering if these are any good:

ps: please don't let my post count put you off, I've been lurking on this site for years.
