i just got an acer swift 3 with the brand new amd ryzen 7 4700 cpu in it, for only 650 from amazon, which is a steal considering it beat out several couple grand ultrabooks in head to heads on the benchmarks and it seems to be highly recommended by many. having only had it a few days i cant give that in depth of a personal review other than to say i am very impressed and do not regret the purchase one bit. the only downside for you is that it does lack touch functionality, but really, how often do you actually use that on a lapper?!... like honestly, really really... haha, i know i sat back and thought on it and came to the conclusion, barley ever, so nbd to get the best chipset out right now. anyway thats the only drawback i can think of for some, imo its not an issue. anyway, as said, highly recommend this lapper for sure.
