Ragdd Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 A good Windows/Android tablet is +/- same price as a good laptop.But a laptop had faster CPU/GPU, more RAM, more storage...And you can do more with a laptop then with a tablet.Tablet is smaller, lighter and has touch screen, that's itWhen I buy a laptop for somebody I look at the following things.Also I ask what the budget is before I search for the right laptop.CPU depends on what you are planning to do with laptop, light use (mail/surfing/light office work) Intel Core I5 / heavy use Intel Core I7Minimum 4 GB RAM for Windows 7/8/8.1 en 8 GB when using laptop for games of semi-professional Photoshop etc...Storage depends how big you data collection is, minimum 250 GB storageGPU depends if your using it for modern 3D games or CUDA calculations (like in Adobe Photoshop) then Nvidia GPU, otherwise Intel HD Graphics.Wireless minimum 802.11n and gigabit LANScreensize depends if you are planning to take laptop on the road (15,4 inch) otherwise 17 or 21 inch depending on your budget.ByeRagdd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
