    Hello people!

    I'm looking to invest money into getting a laptop for the sake of college work assignments and other general *daily* essentials like:

    -Media (720P would be nice)
    -Gaming (No longer gaming "hardcore" on the PC platform, but playing CSGO regularly is nice)
    -Applications (I'd be running all of MS Office, maybe some editing programs.. nothing heavy)

    NOW, with all of that done and dusted; need some opinions on a particular model;

    (I can't post the URL unfortunately but I'll summarise the KEY areas of interest, the full specs can be viewed at Komplett)

    Lenovo Essential G50-45
    4GB of RAM, AMD A8-6410
    AMD Radeon R5 M240
    500GB Storage, 1366x768

    Question 1: The R5 M240, is it a iGPU or GPU?

    Question 2: According to notebookcheck, the card performs similarly to the GeForce 820M, which supposedly has no problems running CSGO at 1366x768 at 60FPS, on high. Any truth to this?

    Thanks to all who reply and offer some insight, I'll do my best to reply to any of the feedback.
