What's a good gaming laptop for under $800?

Mongoose

I have found a really nice laptop from Lenovo that has great feature for the price. It's called the Lenovo y580 and costs about $840.

These are it's stats:
1366x780 15.6" Screen
720p 1mp Webcam
JBL Speakers
Intel Core i7-3610QM Quad-core processor @ 2.3 Ghz.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX660M Graphics Card
8 GB DDR3 RAM
1 TB Hard Disk Drive
DVD-R/DVD
Full-sized Keyboard
Backlit Keys

If anyone can find a laptop that has all these stats and is cheaper or beats some of the stats (and is on par with the other ones) then I would be happy to hear about it. 1080p screen for bonus points!

What is the best laptop to buy for gaming under 800 dollars?

Gabriel F

Wanted to buy a new laptop because this one is crapping out on me. Anywho have any advice on which laptop to buy? I would like it to have a good video card because I want to be able to play current games on it like Fallout 3 or something.

Answer
I understand that you want a gaming laptop that's under $800, but under that price tag won't get you much. If you want to buy a good quality gaming laptop, I'd recommend that you should spend at least $1200. Gaming laptops are expensive because it's hard to put good graphic cards into computers. Most laptops run the graphics from the motherboard, but a separate graphic card can be rather pricey. The best brands for gaming are Alienware (Made by Dell) And Voodoo (Made by HP). with these brands, just DESKTOPS start at around $1200! For $800, you'll be able to get a good Toshiba, Dell or HP, but for sure not a gaming computer. If you want to save money and get a real gaming laptop, then build one yourself. IT takes a bit of effort and may take a bit longer, but you will still be able to save some money, and you can buy the parts separate so you'll get exactly what you want.
Overall, I'd recommend to either spend about $1200 and buy a gaming computer or about $1000 and build your own gaming computer. $800 will get you a nice laptop that can run your games, but the graphics won't be as good. So you decide, and I hope that I helped.

Happy 'top hunting!
