Best Laptops Under 500 With Intel Processor

THIS IS A GREAT BUY!!!!BEST MIC YOU CAN GET FOR UNDER 500!!!...WILL BE BUYING FROM THEM AGAIN VERY SOON!!@@!!!! JW

Blazing fast. Best bang for buck Intel processor for under $250. I would take this over AMD 8 core any day.

This processor destroys anything currently offered by Intel in terms of performance per dollar!

Exactly what I needed, works well, performs well. Another great intel processor!

Caveat: I've only had the processor installed and running for a week. The processor price was retail, the shipping was super quick, and I appreciate that B&H notified me when stock was available as promised and I was able to follow the prompts to order with no issues. Packaging was sufficient and the product box was in perfect shape upon arrival. Installation was easy, I hadn't used an AMD processor before but it simply drops in the slot just like an intel processor. The AIO cooler install was ok, I found it difficult to align perfectly before tightening the screws so it slid around a little bit which isn't ideal for the thermal paste, but not too much... I hope. But it was quick and easy technically. I recall having more annoyances with the intel backplate style install on prior systems. The processor functions perfectly as far as I can tell, and scored very high on UserBenchmark software even relative to the same hardware in other systems. I haven't overclocked anything, and haven't done any real tough workload tasks yet... but so far along with the high end graphics card and storage the PC is insanely fast and snappy. So I think all is as it should be. Played the opening sequence of Star Wars Squadrons and performance was perfectly smooth, though that might be more due to the graphics card. Thanks AMD for the great product, and B&H for the great experience. If anything changes I'll try to update the review here.

The intel fan that comes in the box is quiet and effective. Love the processor - speedy and smooth.

Snapdragon is a quick processor, more than Intel and AMD for a laptop. This one has some great features that work together with Windows. I like the cam login. The PC is in reduced power the second you leave, then starts right up as soon as you sit down. There is also more security with Snapdragon. Copilot+ gets better results than the desktop version. The only problem was an old 2014 Canon laser printer would not install. Three other new printers installed in a minute.

I just built a new PC with the Gen 12 intel I9 Processor and all I can say is wow, the CPU is a steal for 600 dollars and beats just about anything from AMD at the moment. I have it built together with 128gigs of DDR4 4400 Memory, Z690 Motherboard (Biostar GTA) and 6900 XT Ultra Graphics Card. Get it, you will love it.

Despite my expectations for the new M1 processor, it completely outperforms similar lower-end Intel Macs while losing hardly any battery doing so. Windows x64 apps are the only area the software support struggles, but most Mac apps (even under Rosetta) perform perfectly. Solidly built like any Apple product would be.

A great motherboard to enjoy 12th Gen Intel processor. My Asus x -570 tuf gaming operates flawlessly with my Amd Ryzen 7 . This z690 is an upgrade that I look forward to explore and play with!
