Normally I contemplate a Home windows laptop computer a deal if I can discover one with 16GB of RAM — the bottom I might advocate at this level — for across the $500 mark. However right now you may get one with a full 32GB, virtually bougie, for underneath $300. Newegg’s official eBay retailer has an HP EliteBook for simply $260.99 proper now, as long as you’re okay with a refurbished unit.
The EliteBook 845 G8 isn’t all that, effectively, elite, for my part. Notably its 256GB storage is positively miserly at this level, and whereas the 6-core AMD Ryzen Professional 5650U CPU is respectable, its Zen 4 structure is somewhat lengthy within the tooth — this processor got here out in 2021 and nonetheless makes use of DDR4 RAM. However to make up for all of that, 32GB of RAM must be sufficient to load this factor down with dozens of browser tabs with out breaking a sweat.
