Since my trusty sony vaio died, and is beyond repair, I now need to buy a new laptop (we dont have space for a desktop ) I was hoping to limp the laptop along until I had enough money saved for a really high spec laptop (best of everything) but now those plans have been scuppered.
Can someone help with choosing the spec for a reasonable priced "custom build" laptop (that I can upgrade as I need to maybe).
I dont know whether I should go fast i7 dual core, or slower i7 quad core
What about graphics cards, there seem to be so many to choose from... nVidia, Radion... with varying models (and I assume speeds/memory)
Then theres memory... if I have fast processor, and a decent graphics card, will I need 16gb memory (I could buy more memory to add at a later date maybe)
What is the easiest componant in a laptop to upgrade?
All I really use the laptop for is processing my D800 photos and a little surfing the web.
Any advice will be most welcome
