Frequently asked questions

How much RAM do I need in a laptop?

For browsing and office work 8GB is enough; for multitasking, design or programming aim for 16GB; heavy video editing and gaming benefit from 32GB.

SSD or HDD - which is better?

An SSD is far faster and more reliable for everyday use. Prefer at least a 256GB SSD; add an HDD only if you need cheap bulk storage.

Which processor should I choose?

For most users an Intel Core i5 / Ryzen 5 of a recent generation is the sweet spot. Go i7 / Ryzen 7 for heavy work, and i3 / Ryzen 3 only for very light use.
