Gaming laptop reccomendations

#1

Post by Slyfox » Fri Nov 27, 2015 1:46 am

So I am looking for a somewhat cheap but still decently powered laptop; Not really a specific laptop (I can search that ofc) but a brand that you guys prefer and why would be awesome to hear.

If it's under a grand I'm straight
Buuuut around 500-800 would be neat

That's a pretty wide gap, I'd say check this website out - it has a nice chart. I'd still suggest building your own desktop as it gives better results but up to you.

cheap and notebook for games doesn't fit in the same name.
I would recommend to get some used notebook, something like with 3 months of usage, with that you'll save alot of Money and still have a new looking notebook...
but, if it's for indies games only and 2010 games below, just get some notebook with some new intel hd5000
