New Laptop - What should I get?

[AvgTechGuy]

So.. I'm in Grade 12 and I currently have a really old 11" Macbook Air from 2011. I'm looking to get a new laptop maybe you guys can help me find some good ones. My budget is $1600 CAD which is $1200 in USD. The current laptops I'm looking at is the Razer Blade Stealth 256gb QHD and the HP Spectre.

I'm mainly going to be using it for school and streaming netflix and stuffs and maybe some light gaming like csgo or AAA games on low settings.

I'm looking for something thats thin, looks nice and has decent specs.

** Windows laptops only please.

Don't get the stealth unless you plan on getting the core for gaming. The stealth is good but not for gaming unless you have the core which then you need a gpu

Do not buy gaming laptops if i were you i'd spend 200 on a shit laptop and the rest on a PC.
I know it sounds weird but gaming laptops always overheat and FPS goes low in really shit ways.

DO NOT BUY GAMING LAPTOPS!

I need something for school that can have like 20 tabs open and word open and photo shop open at the same time and not crash. I already have a beast pc.

Macbook pro 15', change MacOS to windows or linux, should run most games fine.

The HP spectre is really nice, not sure if it's worth the price though.

This, excellent for 4K gaming, editing etc. It's an all rounder laptop with the highest specs with a lovely small price tag on it (definitely not overpriced). I highly recommend this laptop for your next buy.
