My nephew is looking for a second hand (SH) laptop with following specs:

 

  • 6th generation Intel core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 3000 series or higher with AVX support
  • Min 8 GB of ram
  • Min 256 GB SSD

Use case is mainly to surf the web, you tube videos and use the Serato DJ software (hence the CPU req above). He got sold an el'cheapo from HN last year but he didnt know much about computers so ended up with a turd that struggles to run the apps he wants.

 

His budget is small (< 800)

 

 

 

Mod Edit MM: Edited title for clarity.

If you're on GPForums, drop the user "beefholio" a message, he always has good laptops for decent prices.

Can confirm, my brother and i got 2 in 1 touch screen laptops with Intel 10th gen + 1050ti laptops for a really good deal.

 

Been very happy with it.

I bought from him over ten years ago.  I'm surprised he's still at it
