I just got this new budget laptop for basic use, it has a quad core AMD A8-4500m cpu. Tell ya what, get all the garbage out and this thing flies for a basic laptop. I got it because I don't like my tablet and I wanted something with a little more power. It will play basic games, but I have it mostly just for internet and basic use. I already upgraded the ram and may toss in a ssd.
