I would buy a PC if you want to start PC-Gaming. Laptop isnt good for gaming, if you only play sometimes its ok. But if you want to play the newest games without lags, you should get a PC Winky Winky
You can do a lot more with a PC, like upgrade it etc..

I've seen worse laptops, it isn't too bad, you could probably play battlefield 3 on medium/high but if you really want to get good performance build a custom PC. Smile

Ive heard that from a few ppl where should i go to build my own?? And what are all the things i need to support all games such as skyrim and cod. Btw i cant get a desktop because i need mobile gaming. (internet at house isnt the best) so when i go to friends houses i can download games and ect.

You cant really build a custom laptop, no where sells good laptop parts, you can only really build a desktop, you could get the laptop you listed if you want, its quite a good price really, it'll probably handle skyrim on high at 50fps.

I think thats what ill do its a really good deal.

The laptop you have posted is good tbh, but to get that full gaming experience you should really try Desktop Gaming, you could build your own custom pc and probably save some money and still get the same performance as this laptop.

its ok but the 560m isnt very powerful it has a good cpu its good for the price but it won't be great for gaming and will prob has overheating issues, u can get a half decent rig built for 900$

Yeah its good for gaming. But like everyone else if your gaming, try a desktop
08-02-2012, 01:18 PM #10
it is good, but I hate laptops. even if it's called gaming laptop. it lags a lot.
