What games do you want to run on it?

I've been locked out of pretty much any modern game that's come out, as the current laptop I'm using is not a gaming laptop in the slightest with an integrated graphics chip that only has 128 megs of dedicated video ram. I'm not looking to run anything too graphically intensive, I just want to run new releases at reasonable 60 fps 720p settings, with medium graphics.

Witcher 3 or maybe OW cause I've always wanted to try it would be on the higher spectrum of the games I'm looking to play in terms of performance.

Pretty sure 8gb of RAM is too little now...

You might want to get a refurbished one. You’d be able to afford much better hardware.

Also worth mentioning, I don't really give that much of a fuck about weight or even how slim it is (though it'd be nice), but I want a decent sized screen. Something around 15 inches give or take an inch on either side.

And like I said, I have a shit laptop atm.

Sold at discount. Often in good shape.

I'd prefer to stay away from something refurbished just because I'd rather not risk anything being wrong with an expensive product I order over the internet. Found this while digging, how is it? https://tinyurl.com/y9e9dhcy

macbook probably too expensive to get with even semi decent hardware for less than a grand

I mean, my budget is around 1,000 so I have some flexibility. I'm willing to shell out a few hundred bucks more if it means getting a quality machine. I absolutely hate Macs and Apple products though, so nty.

Depends what you want to play ...Below 1K you get something barely good enough to run the latest AAA games on min but its overkill for most indies.I5 8300 , 8go ram, and gtx 1050 most likely , that's far from great below min spec for monster hunter.
