Hello I'm looking to get a new laptop tomorrow can anyone help? I'm going to use the laptop for:

1. Cryptocurrency trading
2. Storing cryptocurrency
3. Research and information
4. Gaming: Counter strike global offensive Cheesy I have bought this game a long time ago but never could play it because of my computer I currently have. I really want to just play for a little bit, turn on my mic and scream ''lick my balls'' when I kill someone and possibly teabag them  Roll Eyes

I have about €800,-  €1500,- to spend on a good laptop. Can someone recommend me a laptop? No Apple, Windows is preferred. A good brand that I can trust and is reliable, something that's fast and I can have a nice experience on. A good video card is very much welcome aswell.

What's the best laptop brand in your opinion (besides Apple)? Also can you recommend me an Anti-virus thats really good? I don't mind paying a good amount of money for something that can protect me from keyloggers and other malware/spyware.

Thanks!

One more time: Mining is not for a laptop!

Put aside the questions of Windows, price, gaming or anything else. A laptop is not intended for 100% CPU load on a long term (i.e. 24 hour) basis. While absolutely true for Bitcoin, it's also true for other Alt-Coins. The quickest way to shorten the life of a laptop is to use it for something it wasn't designed for (i.e Crypto mining).
