STOP BUYING LAPTOPS BECAUSE OF GENERATION ALONE.
We make this mistake every single day. I won't call it a mistake though because it's basically lack of information.
“Na 10th gen?” “Is it 11th gen?” “I don’t want anything less than 12th gen.”
But nobody is asking the real questions.
Generation alone does NOT determine performance.
A 7th gen Core i7 H processor with 16GB RAM and SSD and a Dedicated Graphics Card
Can outperform a 10th gen Core i5 with 8GB RAM
No graphics card
Let that sink in.
Here are other things seriously really affects performance?
1. RAM size
2. SSD vs HDD
3. Dedicated graphics (if you’re editing or designing)
4. The exact processor model (i5-7200U is not the same as i5-7440HQ)
Generation is just ONE part of the story, but it's not the whole story
Stop chasing numbers and start understanding usage.
If you’re buying a laptop, don’t ask me only the generation.
Tell me what you want to use it for, so I can recommend a tailored specs for your needs. Especially if you are buying UK used.
That’s how you buy smart.
Thank you, don't mention
