Laptop Gaming

A gaming laptop is a laptop with a strong configuration to serve gamers, who often play heavy games, with a screen with a high 120Hz refresh rate (number of display frames per second) for movement in the game. smoother…

Besides, users should choose discrete graphics card GTX 1050 or higher to fight well in games with average configuration, quite like League of Legends, Fifa online 4, Rules of Survival … and Core i5 CPU or i7, with 4 cores and 8GB RAM or more for smoother gameplay.

Choose the right RAM memory

RAM (Random Access Memory) is random access memory, a place to store files and applications temporarily and will disappear when you turn off your laptop.

This memory is many times faster than the laptop hard drive, so that when it needs to be processed, the CPU can access it faster.

The more RAM, the smoother multitasking (switching between applications) will be. RAM levels on popular laptop models today are 4 GB, 8 GB and 16 GB .

4 GB

4 GB RAM will often appear on office laptops used to surf the web, edit, watch videos, reply to messages at the same time, then with 4 GB RAM memory is just enough for you.

However, sometimes you will find the laptop a bit slow when opening and using 3 – 6 applications at the same time.

8 GB

In general, 8GB RAM is mostly equipped on graphic design laptops, or for business people who have to handle large workloads.

For graphic designers, 8 GB RAM is enough for design applications such as 2D graphics (Photoshop, AI, Corel…) and 3D (3D Max, Maya…) or film making . Because it is just enough, sometimes your laptop will have lag, processing design tasks more slowly.

Therefore, if possible, you should choose a machine that can add more RAM to upgrade to 16 GB to handle work more comfortably.

CPU processing speed

CPU speed is the CPU clock that indicates the number of cycles of logical operations that the CPU can perform in 1 second, measured in Hertz (Hz) or Gigahertz (GHz) .

The higher the CPU clock speed, the faster the laptop will work. Here are 7 popular CPU lines on laptops today.

Intel Core i7

This chip is suitable for laptop users with high needs such as image processing speed in graphic design, gaming , or businessmen who need to open multiple windows at the same time, without waiting for applications. run too long.

Intel Core i5

Meet for users with average needs, because of its good performance and mid-range price . This chip belongs to the G or Q series (high performance) suitable for those who use laptops for gaming, graphic design, or office workers .

Intel Core i3

Intel Celeron/Intel Pentium

Intel Celeron is a entry-level chip from Intel that is often found on mini- office laptops for basic computing tasks, such as email, Internet browsing, and document creation.

Intel Pentium is a low-cost chip line, so it will only work well with office applications and simple web surfing that do not require too high processing speed. Intel Pentium is often equipped on low-cost laptops in the price segment of less than 10 million VND such as the HP 15s fq004TU laptop.

AMD

For students or office workers who use laptops for many purposes such as working, playing basic games such as LOL, Crossfire … AMD chips are a good candidate and also have a cheaper price.

For those who need to do video processing and graphic design a lot, they should choose AMD CPUs with multiple cores and threads for faster processing and rendering.

New 10th Gen Intel CPU

This is the 10th generation Intel Core processor family (10th generation Intel Core Processor) including codename Ice Lake and Comet Lake for laptops and tablets.

For the Ice Lake series, it comes with a powerful integrated Iris Plus graphics core, suitable for users in the direction of content creation, which can well support basic graphic design operations, if more professional. it won’t be so smooth

The Comet Lake line is usually for laptops that need high processing performance , suitable for students or office workers, not focusing on graphics as well as images.

New 11th Gen Intel CPU

The Tiger Lake Gen 11th chip series is said to be “the best processor for thin and light laptops”, comes with many improvements: New Iris Xe integrated graphics, Thunderbolt 4 support, Wifi 6 . It can be said that these processors have a big change in performance as well as battery life compared to the previous Ice Lake chip.

Tiger Lake will effectively support creative users when it gives 2.7 times higher image editing performance and 2 times faster video editing than competitors in the same segment. The entertainment experience is enhanced with hardware Dolby Vision support as well as DisplayPort output with the option of 8K resolution or 4 4K HDR displays at the same time .

Hard drive capacity

On the laptop market today, there are two popular types of hard drives that are SSD and HDD, in which:

HDD

HDD (Hard Disk Drive) or traditional hard drive, has the advantage of high durability and large data storage capacity. 1 TB capacity is relatively enough for normal office tasks such as document storage, heavy files, web surfing or simple 2D graphic design. So it will be very suitable for students, office workers , or basic designers.

SSD

SSD (Solid State Drive), ie solid-state drive, was born as an alternative to the slow speed of traditional HDD. SSD has a fast processing speed, often used to install Windows or run applications, so the capacity will be low and the price is high.

Usually SSD hard drives will be for graphic design – engineering laptops, high-end – luxury laptops, gaming laptops. SSD hard drives have the following capacities: 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB .

If you need to expand the space for your laptop, or just back up at a basic level, a drive from 128 – 512 GB is more than enough to use.

And if you are a collector, specialize in working with super heavy project files on Adobe Premiere, AI, 3dMax or are a photographer. The new 1TB or higher SSD fulfills your minimal need for storage.

Screen

About 13 -14 inches

If you have to go on a business trip, bring your laptop to the company, library or lecture hall often, then choosing a laptop with a 13-14 inch screen is the most reasonable.

The 14-inch laptop has a fairly compact size, light weight of about 1.3 – 1.5kg, so it will be suitable for traveling a lot , suitable for girls or people with small stature.

Over 15 inches

For jobs such as office, programming, graphics , the large screen is the top priority, the 15.6-inch screen with Full HD or more is considered the most standard when it is not too small and not too big. .
