Captain_Yuri said: "Canadian" So an i3 with intel HD then? jk jk I would recommend waiting for Pascal/Polaris based mobile GPUs if you can cause those will be much faster with better power efficiency and etc compared to the current generation. But if you must buy one right now, for $1000 cad, it is quite hard to get one that is gaming. The bottleneck will more often than not be the GPU. So most likely, at 1000 cad, you will get a 950M which isn't very good, specially since those laptops have dual core CPUs. You usually need to spend more like $1300sh+ for an i7 + 960M Now I did a quick search and Dell of all people has a pretty okay deal on their laptops. http://www.dell.com/ca/p/inspiron-15-7559-laptop/pd?oc=ni157559_ftsb_h5715e&model_id=inspiron-15-7559-laptop i5 quad core Nvidia 960M 8gb ram 1TB hard drive 1080p Res But I would recommend waiting if u can. |
Don't 960m, it's a shitty upgrade over 950.
970 is the minimum if you want your laptop to handle games two years from now.

I know but he says $1000 Canadian... Most laptops with a 960M in Canada cost $1300+ so this is an extremely good deal. A 970M will cost him more around $1500-2000+ CAD in most cases... I agree that a 960M sucks but the CAD also sucks so if his budget is $1000... That is the only good deal as far as my quick searching goes. Hence why I recommend him to wait for the eventual 1000M series at least.
