ended up buying this for 50 dollars off at best buy
https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/model/NH.Q5YAA.001it's pretty nice. I can run league at max settings and get 90 fps while having a twitch stream in the background with 5 chrome tabs
way faster than the macbook pro i had before
it's got a SSD, got a nice keyboard, a decent monitor IPS
installed all my software shit + ms office and overall i'm happy with it
good thing the games i play are not intensive so i can buy cheap ones like this and do everything i want
it's got a nice build too and pretty compact and not too heavy
also came with a free sleeve!
has nice cooling vents all over on the bottom and sides which is nice
played a 20 min bot game in league and laptop didn't feel too hot
