If you don't have any other requirements and you want the fastest cheap laptop I recommend that you something cheap and upgrade it.
Lenovo G50-80A 80E503ELAX Intel Core i3-5005U 4GB Ram 1TB HDD DVDRW 15.6" LED LAN, WIFI/BT Shared VGA Cam/ DOS - $319.00
That's a good basic laptop with i3 - 4gb ram - HD screen - average 3 hours battery
The modifications I recommend for it are:
Extra 4Gb of RAM because 4GB is too low in case you use Chrome :)
- Kingston KVR16S11S8/4 4GB DDR3-1600MHz for Notebook $24.00
SSD that will change the night to a day, the laptop will become very responsive and fast
- Kingston HyperX Fury SHFS37A/240G 2.5" 240GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) $77.00
USB3 2.5" Sata3 enclosure to put the 1TB drive that came with the laptop to use as external storage
- Transcend StoreJet 25S3 TS0GSJ25S3 2.5" SATA USB 3.0 External Enclosure Link $15.00
That's a 435$ without TVA (478.5$ with TVA)
