Need some suggestions buying a laptop

[screwface]

I've been recently looking into getting a laptop and just wanted get some suggestions on what models would best fit my needs and budget.

- Looking to spend max 1000$
- Don't want a Mac
- Touchscreen if possible
- Fast enough to run recent games
- Good enough hardware to last at least 4-5 years

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

you were doing well up until the last 2 bullets. for that budget, laptop-wise you can probably get what you want at medium settings tops...do-able tho . 4 or 5 years though? you basically have to be sinless with the way you treat it...

Thanks for the info, as far as games are concerned it's really not a top priority. But it's just something that would be good to have. The 4-5 year thing, I was more asking asking the lines of hardware upgrades (ram, hdd). I heard that most laptops are really restrictive when it comes to that.

If you care about gaming, you're gonna have to get rid of the touchscreen and up your spending limit. Real talk

Thanks for the help. That Lenovo seems to be getting good ratings around the board. I'll definitely read up on it some more.

If you want a good laptop for gaming you gotta make sure u get a good ass Video/graphics card check the ratings of it online. You also need atleast 4GB RAM (8+ preferably) and a processor/CPU that's 2.8ghz+ (preferably quad core 3.1ghz+). These the most important things, everything else don't really matter when your talkin bout performance.
