Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This laptop is the ultimate deal right now on the market. Hands down. I successfully installed 8GB DDR3 and a Samsung 850 SSD Combined total spend $475. Now I have a Core i3 5th gen CPU, 1080p matte 15.6" screen, 12GB DDR3, 250GB Samsung SSD, plus a 500GB external HDD (You can use the original Hard Drive, just needs an adapter!) The integrated GPU Intel 5500 is better than I expected which is just a bonus! You can bump the video memory to 512MB in BIOS. Don't listen to all these reviews that say this PC is good for 'light multitasking' or 'basic' web browsing...Really!? I would just use my phone for 'basic' stuff like that. All these super safe comments are underrating this systems potential power and performance. I am a developer and I have thrown a lot of Adobe software at this, as well as Visual Studio, Android Studio, as well as editing 1080p video and watching multiple 1080p videos and movies. YOU CAN DO ALOT WITH THIS. The biggest surprise is the audio! which I found incredibly rich (not tinny) and robust sounding. I always use good headphones on laptops but I actually have not been using my headphones much with this system, AMAZING!!! Did I mention it is a beautiful looking machine and the fan is barely heard. I also build desktops and my current system is a 2k powerhouse, so I'm not a fish out of water here fawning over my first ever tech toy. All this $350 + $85(SSD) + Samsung 850 EVO 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-75E250B/AM) $40(RAM) + Crucial 8GB Single DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) CL11 SODIMM 204-Pin 1.35V/1.5V Notebook Memory CT102464BF160B $10(HD case & adapter) Sabrent Ultra Slim USB 3.0 to 2.5-Inch SATA External Aluminum Hard Drive Enclosure [Silver Aluminum Finish] (EC-UM30)
