Looking for a laptop. Any recommendation?

1. Preferred Brand: Any brand, Asus, HP or Dell are preferred but anything is fine
2. Budget: Under 2.5K, might be able to raise to 3K if required
3. Usage: Light gaming, photo and video editing, programming and assignments
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 14", don't like the number pads in 15'' laptops
5. Other preferences:
> i5 processor (do not require 6th gen) or similar AMD processors
> do not require touchscreen

Hope to receive multiple options as I would like to do extensive research + quite picky with design haha. Thank you sifus in advance!
