My hard disk died last night after the fan stopped working, and now I guess I gotta get a new laptop. I don’t know anything about computers, so I need some help finding something that can run Minecraft decently for $400 or less.
Also, might it be cheaper to just get it repaired? Is that a thing?
It’s an Asus F510UA. I wasn’t able to find any information about it online other than stores selling it. It’s ok, though. Accidentally broke it more taking it apart.
Fair enough. Hinge assemblies can be replaced too, but it is a little more difficult. Pretty much the only repair I wouldn't be willing to do myself would be a busted touchscreen/lcd assembly.
I looked around and found this. I'm personally not a fan of HP, but it has some pretty good specs in your price range. I would immediately do a fresh install of Windows to remove all of the bloatware, regardless of the computer you end up going with.
