The 15.6 inch Samsung NP350V5C-S02AU is just like other solid all-rounders on the laptop market, but a whole lot cheaper. Currently for $798, this laptop has the specs that tend to sell for around $1,000. The laptop’s core system consists of a powerful 3rd Gen Intel Core i7 processor and an AMD Radeon HD 7670M graphics card. This is a great system spec because not only is the Core i7 processor highly capable of handling intensive computing tasks such as editing HD videos and multitasking a large number of applications, the Radeon HD 7670M graphics is also a mid-range card that's decent at playing modern games (at low to medium settings). The rest of the specs are quite basic for a Core i7 powered machine, you get 4GB of memory and a 750GB hard drive.
