I am using a Lenovo IdeaPad 520 with an Intel Core i7-8550U processor, 8GB RAM, and 1TB HDD. The CPU resources are sufficient for multitasking, but gaming may be limited due to the NVIDIA GeForce MX150. The display quality is good for watching movies, but additional RAM and storage would be beneficial. The laptop has enough USB ports for my needs. | ||

I upgraded the memory to 16GB and swapped out the HDD for a 500GB SSD | ||
