Looking for new laptop

Hello,

I'm looking for a reasonably priced laptop (under €700 / £600 approx that would simply suit some basic needs like streaming, and playing average graphic games like Football Manager that doesn't require insane graphics capabilities but does need decent space and a good processor. I'd appreciate if anyone has any advice as to what might suit my requirements please and thanks for any advice in advance.

When you say streaming, what do you mean? Streaming games to twitch or streaming videos and stuff from Netflix?

What other games do you play, can you give a general list?

Hello mate, thank you for replying. Streaming, as in Netflix, YouTube etc. mate, sorry for not being more specific. Football Manager would be the only game I'd play on PC or laptop. Hope that clarifies.
Again, thanks for the reply.

Perfect, that's great, yeah, should be able to find something.

This is actually pretty good for the money, it's a tiny bit over budget, but I wouldn't go lower than this. It's actually out of stock until 04/11, but that's not too far away, and should go into build very quickly after that. It has a fairly small SSD to meet budget, but actually if you're streaming, then you're not storing much locally and Football Manager isn't very large either, so you should be fine. If you needed to though, it's got a spare M2 slot for a second drive, when funds allow, you could easily add another drive if you required it.

Thank you for the reply. I'll keep looking around for now and might get back to you on that, but either way I appreciate the swift replies. 👍
