Hello, I need help deciding on the laptop that will suit me.
Light video and photo editing
Garagebang (just for some fun)
Light 3D animation (and I mean light, I don't know what I'm doing in 3Ds Max)
Light-medium gaming (Allan Wake, TF2, Test Drive Unlimited 2)
Extremely heavy word processing (500-2500 page reports yearly)
I really would like a really powerful computer, but I can't justify $2400 (with the student discount) for a 15 inch laptop with good, but not great specs. Although, if that's what I need, I'll go for it.
If I get the high-end 13 inch, I can use my extra funds to build a custom desktop next year. Which I plan to run BF4 on Ultra with a very usable FPS. So, that should be able to tell you the amount of power this thing will have (It'll have a lot).
Screen size is not an issue 15 inch is great, but so is the 13. I care more about the specs. Price range: What ever gets the job done the quickest.

That's the one I'm leaning towards
