I know this gets done pretty regular but I’m after a bit of advice on a new laptop as ours has died a slow death since installing Windows 10. This may have been a coincidence.
Budget is £350 and I’ve got very little idea what I’m looking at.Iit’ll generally be used for web browsing, word/excel and a tiny bit of photo editing. I may also need to do some CAD work in the future and maybe video editing if I don’t sell the GoPro that I never use!

Any advice is much appreciated 😀
When you say CAD work, what are you talking about?
2D AutoCAD, pretty straight forward layouts with fire alarms to be exact.
2D AutoCAD
pretty much any PC will run that these days, barely scratches the surface of modern processing.
Eeer, no it won't. You need an approved GPU and drivers. Both Radeon and Geforce have had trouble displaying correctly and Intel may not even launch.
Have a look on the Autodesk Forums before you buy.
