Information

  • Rather classic size for a gaming laptop. It allows for reasonable cooling and thus prevents your PC from lagging when you play.

Pros

  • Classic brand and quite good for its PCs (office or/and gaming). It offers a very good performance/price ratio, we recommend!
  • This is the classic type of processor for gaming that has a good balance. It will be sturdier than a 'U' or 'P' and with it, you can play in great conditions. For office work? No problem!
  • This processor offers a good balance of performance and price (i5 or r5). Perfect for advanced office tasks and/or gaming under decent conditions. If you want to push multitasking to the limit, it may be limiting!
  • Intel processor from the 12th generation that was released in Q1 2022, so it is starting to get dated. It represented a significant evolution at the time and is still viable today! It's a very good option if you have a tight budget and the newer generations are expensive!
  • This is the latest generation released by Intel in late 2024 and early 2025 (it's referred to as the 15th generation, but Intel has changed the naming convention). The performance is the best from Intel, but this generation has been controversial because the price gap compared to the 14th is too significant relative to the performance difference. It is recommended if you find good prices, as it remains the top from Intel!

Cons

  • If you have a very tight budget and are only doing simple office work (Excel, Word, internet browsing, etc.), this may be sufficient. However, we recommend looking for at least 16GB of RAM to be comfortable and multitask. Oh, and if you are gaming, forget it!!
  • It works very well for office tasks or even Netflix, but if you plan to game with this PC, you can forget it right away! You absolutely need a graphics card that can handle the display of the games you want to play. We prefer to warn you!
  • 500GB is the strict minimum in our opinion to ensure sufficient storage capacity for a few years. If you are a heavy gamer or store a lot of photos/videos/large files, we recommend getting a larger one or even considering an external hard drive/SSD.
  • The problem with 120Hz is that it's too little, in our opinion, for gaming and too much for office work. We struggle to see the point of this frequency, but if you have a good deal on it, why not!
