Buying a laptop with 1920x1080 Mavericks compatible.

[magnus71]

I would like to get a new laptop, 1080p, with Mavericks support.

Wifi is not a problem because I already own a mini-PCI wifi card that I can swap.

Integrated graphics will be the best choice because I play just few Steam games on my rig.
Thank a bunch mates!

Not really enough information. For example, what size screen are you looking for?

Even if it will be a 14 inches is ok. I found many 15,6 but only 1366x768.
I don't want to pay more than an Apple refurbished Mac Air or MacBook Pro.
I saw an Asus ROG g750jx in a thread but is pricey for my credit card limits.
Well, so the cheapest solution will be fine.

If you're handy with hardware, I'd suggest an HP ProBook 4540s. Replace the stock screen with a 1080p (must purchase cable and screen).

Or for something pre-built, one of the Haswell HP Envy 15" (the one I had was from Costco, now $749). Comes with 1080p.

I wouldn't put too much weight on a list like that.

For example, it lacks an entry for the ProBook 4540s and 4530s which are the most compatible, easiest to install PC laptops available.

But still we didn't find a laptop with 1080p "Mavericksable", on market in Italy.
Maybe my first post was confused, so I'm sorry.

I had a couple of suggestions, but I'm not in Italy, so I cannot tell you the specifics of that market.
