Hey guys, I saw Logan's video on the asus ux32 ultrabook and I really liked it. The only thing is i need a laptop that is 15.6 inches instead of 13.3. I am looking for an ultrabook like laptop with dedicated graphics and good battery life (5+) hours and hopefully around the $1000-$1200 range. I looked into the asus ux51vz-dh71 and found that it would be perfect for me, but its a bit pricy. Do you guys have any recommendations for ultrabooks? Should I go with the ux51?

Thanks,

SkatezZ

Good laptops with dedicated cards are 1500$+. Ultrabooks with weak dedicated cards are 1500$+. Ultrabooks are not for gaming nor are notebooks, but at least there's workstation notebooks and there's "gaming" laptops with proper video cards. What I do reccomend for school is wait for a good haswell ultrabook and you get both good battery life and a decent gt630 equivalent for video.
