The Best Gaming Laptop Under $1000 (2017)#Helpful Post

tripod is also completely fine

so supports multi-touch the tracking is

reasonably accurate but honestly a lot

of this stuff isn't really all that

exciting what really separates the

Inspiron for most other laptops in this

price category is the performance inside

the Inspiron it's rocking a quad-core

intel core i5 7300 HQ NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti

graphics and those are paired with eight

hey guys this is Austin this just might

be the best gaming laptop that you can

buy for less than a thousand dollars

when it comes to laptops that are meant

for gaming and they are usually one of

two camps either they're really cheap

and usually don't have either any

dedicated graphics or pretty bad ones or

they're incredibly expensive huge thick

and heavy but I think this actually is a

sort of nice blend of the two so this is

the Dell Inspiron 75-67 yo this is a

fishing not a bad looking laptop now if

red is a little bit too much for you you

can't actually get it in black but that

stands out so open it up and you will

see that it's a little bit of a bigger

laptop so we're rocking a 15.6 inch

1080p display however what's special is

on the inside as not only is this

rocking a cable a core i5 quad-core

processor it's also got dedicated gtx

1050 TI graphics before we get too far

into it though let's see what else we

get in the box which doesn't really seem

like much we pretty much just get a

power cable in the box well that's not a

really big deal because this has pretty

much everything we need built in so

unlike most laptops these days we

actually get full-sized USB ports

there's also HDMI there's Ethernet this

is absolutely a gaming laptop now sure

it's a little bit big and a little bit

heavy but considering what we're getting

inside it's not crazy so now that we're

up and running with the Inspiron there

are a few things that jump out to me and

the first is the screen it's not great

so it is at least 1080p but the issue is

is that not only are the colors sort of

mediocre but it is a very very narrow

sort of viewing angle so if I get in

just the right spot it looks fine but

all it takes is moving it just a little

bit farther and the entire thing washes

out it reminds me of a much cheaper

laptop and while yes this is definitely

a laptop that is made to a budget right

so they put pretty much all the money

into stuff like the CPU the GPU the SSD

which is not a crazy call but even if

there's another 50 or $100 upgrade to

get a better screen

I would absolutely take it it's fine

it's usable but it's not great hey guys

that is not bad so in addition to the

standard 2 speakers on the Inspiron

there's actually a dedicated subwoofer

so it's sort of right down here below

the palm rest and it's a surprisingly

loud and rich sound for a laptop it's

kind of rare to have a sub but it really

does give you a lot more definition

a lot more bass it's a much punchy sound

that I'm used to the keyboard is decent

so I would say it's a little bit on the

mushy side of things but the layout is

nice you do have that full number Oh on

the side and it's also backlit now it

might not be winning any awards but this

is completely usable the webcam isn't

too special

so it's 720p while it does have dual

microphones the video quality just isn't

that green fine for a quick video call

but not 256

gigabyte SSD so one of the games I

wanted to try is GTA 5 now well this

might be a slightly older title it can

still be pretty taxing as you can see

here at 1080p Ultra settings we're

getting error between 40 to 50 frames

per second next we have overwatch I

think this is a good example of a game

that runs really well on the Inspiron so

that 1050 Ti might not be able to handle

4k gaming but a 1080p ultra we're

getting a really solid 70 frames per

second this is the only model of the

Inspiron that comes with pure SSD

storage in this case 256 gigabytes so

it's a SATA Drive so you should expect

any kind of crazy speed but here we're

getting about 400 on the read and about

330 megabytes on the right it might not

be the fastest thing in the world but

it's going to be a lot better than any

of the hard drive models so there are

multiple configurations of this guy so

this is the mid spec model if you want

to save a little bit of money you can

drop it down to GTX 1050 graphics and a

one terabyte hard drive or if you want

to upgrade it you can throw some things

in like a core i7 but really I feel like

this is the sort of sweet spot as the

other models get well over $1000 and

you're really not going to be getting a

lot more performance so with a single

screw we can take off the bottom of the

laptop there is actually a lot of room

for upgrades here so as far as memory

goes we have eight gigs in here right

now but you can easily bump that up to

16 or 32 gigs there's a completely open

two and a half inch drive bay so here if

you want you can put in not only a hard

drive but an SSD whatever you want to

get some additional storage over here we

have the m2 SATA Drive so it won't

really be any faster than normal SSD but

as you can see it's a lot smaller

does give us that full drive Bay it's

actually a pretty clean layout here you

can see the duel fans with the heat pipe

between the CPU and GPU the the

subwoofer is actually surprisingly big

it takes up a lot of room and of course

we have the battery here too which looks

super easy to remove I've got to say

it's been a while since I've opened up a

laptop that's this easy to work on there

is a lot to like with the Inspiron $450

it makes it so a gaming or editing

laptop and while the screen can be

better there's really not a lot to

complain about so what do you guys think

definitely be sure to let me know in the

comments below and I will catch you on
