I'm assuming the specs of a comp do make a difference.
I'm talking about render speed, etc etc.

    A10 is a combination processor (APU) of CPU and GPU, rolled into one. The graphics memory comes out of your total ram.

    I personally have had the WORST luck with HP computers. Between my old job and my personal experience with HP computers - I avoid them like the plague now. I used to love them but after 4 bad ones in a row - nope not gonna do it again. hehe!

    I <3 my Asus ROG. ;) Since I wanted to work with 3D, Photoshop and memory horses like Adobe Indesign and After Effects, I figured a gaming computer would do the trick. It's been very nice. I wish I would have opted for the upgrade in the video card now, but it still troops right along. It does have room for an additional card, ram and internal hd.</p>

    My personal opinion - if you stick closer to the gaming computers, especially with Win 10, you'll be happier with the performance. And get a cooling pad with it too. ;)

    unfortunately this was the only thing in my price range, and I had to buy a refurb ):
    I have already purchased it unfortunately but tbh I am trying to put my mind at ease.

    Uh . . . ooops . . . sorry. My post totally didn't help there. :red:

    Well, I had one HP laptop that was absolutely fantastic . . . um . . . and I know how it goes with limited funds. I got lucky and found mine on sale on Amazon.

    I've had 3 HP laptops and I can't complain really. My first lasted 3 yrs but ran into a fan issue. My second , there wasa freak issue in manufacturing that after 3 years the side snapped open and finally stopped working. I have a temporary HP laptop and its working okay but not exactly what I want. I'm really just asking about the specs
