I personally like this one, but I'm not sure how well the AMD V140 processor performs, since I like to multi-tab my browsing.

This one is the same price as above after the discount, seems solid with the dual-core and is more compact, but I'm a bit wary of the integrated graphics since I still want to be able to run CS 1.6.

Any opinions are appreciated thanks! I'm a bit stoked to be getting a laptop, and I want to make it count.
the gpu has to be complete garbage for it to be unable to run cs 1.6... my dell from 2001 can run it and my hp from 2005 can run source and they were not gaming rigs lol. you shouldn't worry about the graphics, either of those will be able to handle 1.6
