Based on your description , I ' d go with the Surface Book ! Specifically this one . Intel Core i 7 , 8 gb RAM , 256 gb SSD , NVIDIA Dedicated GPU equivalent to NVIDIA GTX 940 m , also comes with a surface dock ! It fits your description on gaming and resale value . The Surface tablet including the keyboard base weighs a total of 3 . 48 pounds which is pretty portable for the laptop of its size and specs . The only problem is sort of is that it ' s slightly outside of your price range but if you are going to pay $ 2000 for a computer , I ' m sure you can put another $ 100 into it . <| sep |> Clearly they like The Good , The Bad , and the Ugly . Hopefully they didn ' t just trace that over Blondie . <| sep |> Her husbands coworker . He lost it in a machine accident . I ' m wondering if he was in on it too , because who keeps their severanced finger and gives it to someone ?
