Hello Lemmings,

My 5 year old gaming laptop finally needs to be replaced. I need a new laptop for programming and light gaming. I no longer game on a laptop but a desktop. Though being able to play even outside would be nice so the laptop should be able to play at least Team Fortress 2. I’ll be installing a Linux distro on it. My budget is around 800-1000€. The screen should be 14 or 15 inches. The battery should last at least 6 hours while not doing anything heavy as video editing or gaming.

    At least one option I found in that price range on Amazon (US, not sure about EU)

    Discrete AMD GPUs in laptops are a very niche market, and there aren’t too many to be found. The RX6550m listed here is not the bottom of AMD’s barrel, but it’s no powerhouse. I’m sure it would run anything that isn’t too demanding, TF2 included.

    MSI Bravo 15 Gaming Laptop, 15.6" 144hz FHD, Ryzen 7-7735HS(Up to 4.75GHz), 16GB RAM, Radeon RX6550M with 4G GDDR6, 1TB SSD
