Hey guys, I am looking for a new laptop for my mother. She will use it mostly for working (browsing, excel, word and such) and maybe photoshop. She wants a good hd screen and an ssd for speed. I chose this one and wanted to hear some opinions on it:
HP ENVY TOUCHSMART 15-K048ND
16 GB ram
i7 4510U 2000 MHz - 3100 Turbo MHz
256 GB SSD
Geforce GTX 850M 4096 MB
1920 x 1080 TN touchscreen
15,6 INC
PRICE: 1080,00 euro
 
To put it simply, this is a lot more than your mother will ever need. It has a fast CPU and it has a fast GPU by laptop standards. You might look at something cheaper but that is mostly because you are paying for faster hardware that will never be used by her. Also I would advise checking Dell or others as HP tends to have a high rate of PC failure.
