Laptops

[Jay_57]

Hi all
I can’t find a laptop which is
FHD(1920x1080)
8GB RAM
I5 8th Gen intel
1TB harddrive.ive searched but none of them have those specs. Can anyone recommend a notebook?Anything besides Lenovo. Is it worth getting a 7th gen 7200u are they outdated?

You could go with a 5590 Latitude and swap out the 256GB SSD for a 1TB HDD or 1TB SSD.

No don't do that, you'd kill the performance. I love my SSD.

The problem with myBB is that people think everyone else needs the same solution they do...

Perhaps OP needs 1TB? In which case swapping out the SSD for a 1TB HDD isn't a bad idea. Whether performance drop matters depends on the use case.

You mean "the problem on MyBB is that people have different options than mine, and they express it which frustrates me"

Hi,

I have an Asus which meets all those specs.,it has a gtx 960m graphics card too.

Expressing opinions is fine. Even if they're different.

This sort of thing though:

No don't do that, you'd kill the performance. I love my SSD.

is not useful to the discussion.

Sure, a 256GB SSD is great, if you need performance but don't need to store much. If you need both, a 1TB SSD is much better! But it costs five to ten times as much as a spinning disk.

Something like this would have been much better:

Swapping the included SSD for the hard drive will slow the computer down substantially. Are you sure you want to do that? What is the use case so we can advise a bit better?

Then you can share your opinion but you haven't just told the OP what to do and coming across as though you know better than him what he needs.

Dude, you did notice the "I love my ssd" part?
What part of that would make you think I was not being facetious?

No comic sans, I guess.
