Looking for a lightweight laptop for school, video editing and occasional gaming. I found a refurbished xps 15 for 960 but I am worried about temps however I can't find that much on the ps63 which is 1000usd. Which laptop would you recommend and why?

Dell XPS 15 or the new Dell Inspiron 7591 would be your best bet.

Just depends how much you're willing to spend.

If looking for something cheap, then Asus Vivobook 15 (2019) and HP Pavilion 15 (2019) could be great options.

Both are light weight and come with the latest i5/i7, 8 GB RAM, 2 GB MX250 and multiple storage options.

Shouldn't cost more than 1000, new.

Had a vivibook pro couple years back with a 1050. Great laptop but quality control was bad. Not trying to get a mx250 since I'm moving from a 1050
