Looking for a laptop for my fiance for Christmas. Looking in the $400-500 or less with a 15" screen. She'll mainly use for internet browsing and work (teacher), but I'd use occasionally. I'd like the fastest possible for the money as she gets frustrated with slow computers (hence why she always wants to use mine LOL) If it doesn't have an SSD I'll for sure put one in. I can easily add more ram if necessary. Also, a better screen than the typical 1366x768 screen would be nice.

I've been searching a lot but I'm really indecisive. I'm OK with AMD APU but it seems like a 6th or 7th gen i5 is not much more.

Thanks
 
I ended up getting her an Acer Aspire E5-575 with the below specs for $415 brand new. I thought it was a steal considering the specs. She should be happy at Christmas.
