At the moment, I'm starting a new position that mainly involves working with different CMSes on my laptop. However, at the moment I am down to using my old, cheap, backup laptop that only has 4 GB RAM. With its age and lack of memory, it's having a hell of a time running the CMS effectively, especially since my work usually involves having several different tabs open at once.
I'm definitely going to need to get a new, higher-quality laptop in the near future. Based on the info I've picked up, I think around 16 GB of RAM would be advisable for what I need with my job. However, my budget is somewhat tight at the moment, and ideally any new laptop I buy would be under $500. I've found a few laptops with 16 GB RM (or more) online, but I'm not really a tech guy so I'm not quite knowledgable enough to compare them.
For some additional info:
Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
$500
Are you open to refurbs/used?
Preferably new, but if there's a really high-quality refurb I'd consider it.
How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
Performance first, quality second, then factor and battery life
How important is weight and thinness to you?
Not too important
Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
Reasonably size
Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
No
If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?
No gaming
Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?
Good keyboard
Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.
I don't game so I wouldn't need any gaming capabilities I also am not editing photos or videos I really just need something that can operate more complex CMS programs with several other tabs open, and also play YouTube videos and the like with no issue.
Are there any specific, reliable laptops with around 16 GB RAM for under $500 that anyone could specifically recommend?
Thank you!
I understand from the screenshot that I should get a DDR4 but what speed should I be getting: 2400, 2666, 3000, 3200?
