So just re-worked the config .. in summary, I think this will be more than she will need, but certainly futureproof for the next 4 plus years. Slightly less RAM, and a single drive, but as my daughter users hers for gaming too ... Chassis & Display Defiance Series: 15.6" Matte Full HD 240Hz...

Cheers for the suggestion Davhun .. My Laptop is an 8th Gen Defiant Series 17.3" Monster, so I think a 14" might be a little too small. My Company Lenovo is 15.6 and that is a good size ... Actually, as I type, I might drop down to a 15.6, something like my daughters spec ... What do you think...

Understood. Much appreciated.

THankyou for the response ... I was always lead to believe more Ram is a good thing. I selected the "1TB PCS 2.5" SSD, SATA 6 Gb (520MB/R, 470MB/W)" as the primary drive as I know its probably going to be used for mp3's as well as fairly parge ppt presentations and education media. Im a little...
