Hi,

Please recommend a suitable laptop. Thanks.
I'm a very light user if not for the fact that I'm running speech recognition. So, I need fast and strong processing power. Basically, gaming laptop specs without the graphic card.

1. Preferred Brand: -
2. Budget: 3-4k. Can stretch budget if fulfill requirement
3. Usage: Browsing. Speech recognition
4. Preferred laptop/screen size : Any, but prefer keyboard with no numpad so more spacing to type (optional)
5. weight: -
6. Specs:

- CPU - i7 quad core. Can take older gen. L3 cache (min 6mb, prefer 8mb) since 6700HQ only 6mb.
- RAM - min 8GB or more.
- HD - Prefer SSD but optional
- Graphics Card - I don't game. No impact.

Not sure if I missed out anything. Any good promotions going on? Planning to buy it by this week or early next.

What's the specs and price of this?

Yeah, that's why I put 6mb min there. Cause I know I probably won't be able to find 8MB cache processor with ~4k budget.
I'm still looking for options, and now leaning towards just getting a gaming laptop and add on RAM to be done with it.

Workstation looks nice but I won't be able to afford the 6k price tag.
