Morning all
I hope I am asking in the right forum. I have a Packard Bell Easy Note TE - Intel B820, 8gb DDR3 running windows 7. It is painfully slow. For Black Friday and Xmas I am going to get a new laptop.....but what specs do I need?
I use the laptop for swagbucks, prolific, instagc - basically run videos for online earning GPT sites. I also do some merch by amazon, that uses GIMP Photo Editing. As well as simple MS Office tasks.
Ideally I am looking at Amazon, as the gpt sites pay out to Amazon, but would consider other sites. Top budget I was thinking was £500.
Tech guys, its over to you...

Pop a solid state storage drive within; removing the old and slow mechanical storage. You can clean install Windows 10 for free. It will be faster than when brand new because of the SSD and clean install.FunLovinCriminal said:Morning all

Can guide you through that; it's an easy job for you.
Since the total spend for that can be as little as £25; you can still purchase a more powerful laptop. I'm sure there is a £500 laptop thread already running.
