So this CPU is almost six years old... at this age, I expect 75% off. The RAM is old tech, the hard drive is old tech.

Looking to buy a new laptop, what kind of RAM type and SSD type should I be looking for? Non-gaming purpose but still want to avoid old tech/ TIA

AI bubble! I agree a few years ago sub-$200 for something like this but nowadays even for older tech expect to pay $300+

I should have got a new laptop last year. I have seen that the laptop that I would like is about $300 more than last year for a model with the same specs. For the price that I want, the laptop has a smaller SSD and/or RAM, but it is not worth doing the upgrade path as I did with my last few laptops. Plus, some of the newer laptops are not upgradeable.

You want at least 16GB of RAM. And I would get a 780m GPU CPU... that is a CPU that has the 780M GPU built into it. There are about six chips... ask AI but two of them are the Ryzen 7 8845HS and the H255 Chip that is made for China... and others and I would say a 512GB HD would do it for you... but I like 1TB. So that is a typical system... Ryzen 7 H255, 16GB of RAM and a 1TB (you want Gen 4... but if they don't say, expect Gen 3) and the RAM you would want is DDR5600 SODIMM (the SO mean laptop memory). I would also look for a refurbished deal.

Or perhaps the Snapdragon X or X plus CPU would suite you. It has some software incompatibility issues, but I don't see you installing anything special that you would have to worry such as games or major software.

Either machine I can find on ebay for $450ish... so to me that is the price to get something current and it is still DIRT CHEAP for what you get. It may be second hand or refurbished, I just want a machine that works perfectly.

No, this is just a big rip off IMHO. And I still feel that way even though you need to spend more to get more.

Honestly, if I don't need to do much (web browsing, etc.), I'd rather stick with an older, and preferably a more repairable, laptop. Microsoft is supposedly trying to bring back Recall, which only works on Copilot+ PCs. Hold onto your old laptops where Microsoft can't force "features" that violate privacy.
