Reddit reviews Dell G3 Gaming Laptop - 15.6" FHD, 8th Gen Intel i5-8300H CPU, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, NVIDIA GTX 1050 4GB VRAM, Black - G3579-5965BLK-PUS

This sub tends to be desktop focused. Check the benchmarks of those games with an MX150 and a GTX 1050 though. Both should be doable within your price range, but the MX150 may leave some room for other features.

For example


This may give you some nice bang for your buck and probably have good battery life https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834316529&cm_re=mx150_laptop-_-34-316-529-_-Product


This will give better performance https://www.amazon.com/Dell-G3-Gaming-Laptop-G3579-5965BLK-PUS/dp/B07C9J1PY6/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1539725234&sr=8-4&keywords=dell+g3+15

If battery life is important, go with the 8250U. It gets about 3x performance per watt, which is roughly 80% more battery life when you factor everything else in. I have a 8250U laptop and I have to be seriously negligent to actually run out of juice. I've also had a HQ type laptop before, and those rarely last 4 hours without a plug.

As far as the newer generation, this is the 4/8 8th Feb it but it's currently on back order and I'm not sure of the availability in India. It would also have a hard time getting 4 hours of battery life, although it would be noticably faster at heavy computation.

You can consider the Dell G3 Gaming Laptop which comes in slighter under budget but will be able to manage the games you listed comfortably as well as CAD. Build wise it is solid and should not break easily or quicky and it is easily upgradable if you want more RAM or storage

......your best bet if you don't want to build a computer or even just buy a used business one and get a graphics card for less than $500 is to just buy something like a Dell G3 or Acer Nitro 5.

Just to prove I'm not giving you any affiliate links I'm just gonna stick em here.

Edit: AHHHHHH I don't have the links in the same order as I mentioned them and it's bugging me. There, it's fixed.

There are a few more options

1. https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/thinkpad/thinkbook-series/Lenovo-ThinkBook-14s-IWL/p/88LG8TB1343 For a similar price you get similar hardware to what you found, but a better brand laptop (and a business line instead of consumer). Should have good battery life and decent performance for school.
   
2. https://www.newegg.com/p/1TS-000A-05ZU8 It has a better CPU and GPU. Battery life won't be as long, and the SSD might be a bit slower, but it should work great for most workloads. Not sure on quality though as I don't buy much from newegg. Amazon alternative https://www.amazon.com/Dell-G3-Gaming-Laptop-G3579-5965BLK-PUS/dp/B07C9J1PY6/ref=sr_1_6?fst=as%3Aoff&qid=1568821642&refinements=p_n_feature_fourteen_browse-bin%3A2057441011%2Cp_n_graphics_type_browse-bin%3A14292273011%2Cp_n_size_browse-bin%3A2423840011%7C2423841011%2Cp_n_feature_five_browse-bin%3A13580790011%7C13580791011%7C7817224011%2Cp_n_feature_twelve_browse-bin%3A9521908011%2Cp_n_feature_three_browse-bin%3A9647486011%2Cp_n_feature_four_browse-bin%3A2289792011%7C2289793011&rnid=676578011&s=pc&sr=1-6
   
3. https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ideapad/ideapad-300-series/IdeaPad-L340-15IRH-Gaming/p/88IPL301161 This goes a bit above your price range, but has better specs than the newegg dell even (minus SSD size) if you have ebates or something similar in the states it might offset your extra cost. SSD is a bit small though on the affordable model.
   
4. https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-IPS-Level-i5-8300H-GeForce-2666MHz/dp/B07L28M2CB/ref=sr_1_10?fst=as%3Aoff&qid=1568821514&refinements=p_n_feature_fourteen_browse-bin%3A2057441011%2Cp_n_graphics_type_browse-bin%3A14292273011%2Cp_n_size_browse-bin%3A2423840011%7C2423841011%2Cp_n_feature_five_browse-bin%3A13580790011%7C13580791011%7C7817224011%2Cp_n_feature_twelve_browse-bin%3A9521908011%2Cp_n_feature_three_browse-bin%3A9647486011&rnid=9647481011&s=pc&sr=1-10 This is similarly specced to the newegg one but cheaper. It's heavier and definitely appears gaming. Battery life will be less too.

Here you go dude https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06XFG7157/ref=psdcmw_13896615011_t2_B01I22VGNW



Or you can get a Dell g3 with an i5-8300 and a GTX 1050 for 70 bucks cheaper here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07C9J1PY6/ref=psdcmw_13896615011_t1_B06XFG7157

Since you are saving for a car as well you can get the Dell G3 Gaming Laptop which is below budget, reliable enough for traveling and most importantly powerful enough to game comfortably. Its GTX 1050 graphics card will be able to manage the games you listed and it has a decent enough heat management system so the laptop won't throttle. Browsing and running basic programs simultaneously will also not be an issue as its has a power quad core CPU and 8 GB of RAM. You can also upgrade the RAM or add more storage space easily if you want

Thanks for the recommendation I hadn't looked at that one before, here's the one I found on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Dell-G3-Gaming-Laptop-G3579-5965BLK-PUS/dp/B07C9J1PY6?th=1

The one issue that I might have with it while I was reading the reviews was the screen quality for graphics and the plastic used for the body/screen. I have a 6 year old macbook that's on it's way out so I'm used to having retina display and high quality hardware but maybe that's something I need to get over lol

Hey there. This Dell G3 looks like it would be pretty good for what you are looking for. It costs about $760 and has good specs like:

• Rigid build
  
• 1080p IPS Display
  
• 250 GB SSD
  
• Good Keyboard (also backlit)
  
• GTX 1050 4GB
  
  I personally like its simple design that doesn't reek of "epic gamer style." Good luck!

first of all, get well soon fam!

theres tons of cheap laptops out there available for light gaming, you could probably look into the dell g3 for gaming, although id suggest you get a cooling pad alongside it cause thin gaming laptops tend to get very hot

here's a link i found for the g3 - https://www.amazon.com/Dell-G3-Gaming-Laptop-G3579-5965BLK-PUS/dp/B07C9J1PY6

wishing you a speedy recovery,

at your budget, get a gaming laptop, a thin one :)

What do you think about Dell G3? It's $882 on Amazon with 16% OFF now!

• 8th Generation Intel Core i7-8750H Processor (6-Core, 9MB Cache, up to 3.9GHz w/Turbo Boost)
  
• 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 up to 32GB
  
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050TI
  
• 256 GB (SSD) Boot + 1 TB 5400 RPM SATA HDD Storage, No ODD
  
• 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) IPS Anti-Glare
  
• LED-Backlit Display
  
• Windows 10
  
  More Details

Then the Dell G3 would be a good option, however important to keep in mind that the build quality is poorer and thermals will be worse. If you're doing light gaming, it might be a smaller issue, however still evident.

I recommend the dell g3 15. This one is $630 and this one is $720 but a lot faster.

Here're a few that you could look into: https://www.amazon.com/IPS-level-i5-8300H-Processor-GeForce-Gigabit/dp/B07JF6HRJ1/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=1050+ti+laptop+i5&qid=1557643378&s=gateway&sr=8-3

​

you can probably run both games fairly smoothly with these laptops... Though not sure about that last one, I guess it sorta depend on how hard you gonna mod your skyrim... It's definitely powerful enough for the vanilla tho running on medium/high with more than 60 fps. The first two you can probably play most modern games with as well.

I would take a look at the Dell G3 laptops on Amazon.

A little over $600... https://www.amazon.com/Dell-Gaming-Laptop-G3579-5941BLK-PUS-3579/dp/B07BRHXCZL

Another - https://www.amazon.com/Dell-G3-Gaming-Laptop-G3579-5965BLK-PUS/dp/B07C9J1PY6

You are better off buying a new dell g3
This one is priced at 710 and has way better specs

Can I run: Metal Gear Rising, Bayonetta, Stardew Valley, Diablo 3, Dead Cells, PUBG, and Kingdom of Amalur reckoning?

Here is my laptop: https://www.amazon.com/Dell-G3-Gaming-Laptop-G3579-5965BLK-PUS/dp/B07C9J1PY6

Dunno how to format the link on mobile, but this dell laptop saves you about $100 USD, has a 30% faster CPU and 136% faster GPU, at the cost of a smaller storage.
