New laptop needed

My current laptop was bought for my daughter from Dell 3-4 years ago and it is time I upgraded. I have a budget of up to £450.
What processor should I be looking for as there seems to be hundreds out there compared too when I bought this one.
We have 3 Dell laptops in our house and they have all been good at what we wanted them to do, so don't mind sticking with them.

If I had asked should I change it or would you, then I could and would have expected those sort of replies.
Thanks for all the help.0 -

Knowing SDF, he's probably smashed it up in a fit at some muppet on MSE.:D
For £450 you should be able to get something with a i3 processor or sometimes an i5.
But why not wait until the New Year sales? (which may have started already I know).The man without a signature.0 -

Cheers Vik, finally some sense. So I am looking for an i3 or i5 processor. Thats all I needed to know.:A
The missus is buying it (she doesn't know yet :shhh: ) so may wait.0 -
Get the best CPU you can buy. Don't be fooled by extra RAM - you probably don't need it
