LAPTOP GUIDE || COMPLETE IDEA BEFORE PURCHASING LAPTOP

1) How will you use your laptop

• Light use :

• Medium use :

Typing for work, browsing the web, editing documents and photos and basic ga m ing. This could include students or professionals who do a lot of research and could have multiple documents or tabs open at a time.

2) Performance

A laptop’s performance is based on 5 main things.

• Processor
• Battery
• RAM          
• Internal storage
• Graphics card

2a) Processor :

Processor is the brain of the computer. The better the processor the better the work rate.

Processor Types: Processors are made primarily by two companies – Intel and AMD.

• Intel has its Pentium, Celeron and Core i3, i5, i7 & i9 series
• AMD has A, FX and Ryzen series of processors

2b) RAM :

More the Ram better would be Multi Tasking

• RAM stands for Random Access Memory and is what stores a ll the open apps, files and games you may be playing
• More RAM allows more of them to be running simultaneously.
• Typically laptops come with 4, 8 or 16 GB of RAM

RAM Type :

• DDR4: Faster, efficient power consumption
• DDR3: Older, slower & consumes more power

2c )Internal Storage

• This is where all the documents, photos, apps, games and movies are stored.
• Storage on a laptop is where the operating systems are installed.
• Without sufficient storage, you will not be able to store anything, and it will also impact the speed of performance.

2d) Battery :

The more the battery capacity the more the hours of usage

• Things like screen brightness, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, type of processor and even the load on your CPU will impact battery life.
• Gaming, video playback, heavy editing etc can all speed up battery drain  noticeably.
• Bigger batteries usually mean heavier laptops.

2e) Graphics Card :

• A graphics card is a dedicated chip inside your laptop,responsible for the quality of visuals you see on your screen .
• Just like RAM the more the GB’s in your graphics card, the smoother you r games will run, even i n Full HD or 4K resolution.
• Photo and video editing software like Photoshop, design software like AutoCAD, and of course most modern games require a dedicated graphics card to function smoothly.
