What brand of gaming laptop is most reliable?

Bear

I'm looking into buying a gaming laptop, and I've narrowed the search down to :
-Alienware
-iBuypower
-Asus
-Origin
First, I'm wondering if there are any other brand names out there that could hold a candle to these. if so let me know in the response.
Next, I'm looking at getting a laptop with these stats:
i7 processor
1gb video mem
8-18 gb ram
500gb+ 7200 rpm hard drive, possibly a SSD.

Lastly, I'm aware I can create my own computer for possibly a cheaper price, I'd rather not go through that hassle because I'm technologically impaired. Thank you for any useful input in advance!

Answer
I actually don't believe that those are the best, but you may disagree with me. I think MSI offers great gaming laptops. They are tough, are designed well, and also very powerful.

Also, I'm just going to put it out there that if you're not MLG or a very serious gamer, you probably don't need a gaming laptop. There are very powerful laptops out there with the specifications that you want, that are much thinner, much better designed, and are more reliable. The MacBook Pro with Retina display meets all of your standards. (MBP retina is a mac though, you probably want a PC for gaming). HP, Lenovo, and Samsung also have great powerful computers.

Sorry for actually widening the range of laptops for you to search from, but I really don't believe that gaming laptops are necessary. I hope it helped though! :)

these are all best gaming laptops of today and are 3rd gen laptops so graphics cards and all are installed from before hand. also these come with the new windows 8 os which will completely change your gaming experience.

What is the best budget gaming laptop for my uses?

best gaming laptops on a budget image

Dadad

I've been wanting a reasonable laptop for studies and also a lot of gaming. I have around 500-800 dollars to spend on this laptop. I would like to play games such as Minecraft, League of Legends, BF3, at at least a consistent 60 fps, with an exception to BF3, and I don't mind playing on the lowest settings. Any good budget gaming laptops out there?

Answer
I am not sure how well these will play BF3 but they come close to your price range.

This HP can be customized to what you need. If you want better performance upgrade the APU to a A10, dedicated graphics and increase the ram to 8GB.

Brand buying advice

You get what you pay for. Systems with high end parts with low prices are to be viewed with suspicion. They have to cut corners somewhere to get the price down. What cost you less today is going to cost you more tomorrow.

Apple makes a good quality laptop. The problem comes when it requires service or minor upgrades. It is near impossible to do anything with them. They even glue the battery and hard drive down so you can not change it. They solder the ram to the logic board so you can not increase it. They lock up most of the software so your stuck with what they approve.

Lenovo has serious stand behind their product problems. They bought IBM PC division and proceeded to drive the quality of the system into the ground. Their customer service is well below par. They even makes Dell customer service look good. Lenovo will not allow people to read instruction on how to access the BIOS menu or to get info on their puters on their web site unless you connect to them thru Facebook. They do this so they can spy on their users. The last and final thing to remember about them is they are a Chinese Government own company. It is up to you if you want to trust them.

Toshiba, Panasonic, Sony should be avoided because of their heavy modification of Windows and the drivers. If you remove some of the bloat they install, you can cripple the system.

Acer, Gateway, and eMachines should be avoided period. Low end system that are driving the race to the bottom.

Dell once made a good system and fell from grace. They are now struggling to regain their place in the market. Customer service is one of many problems with this company.

Alienware are glorified Dells and are more name then product. Priced extremely high for what you get. They do perform but you can get the same for less by looking around, just not packaged to be eye candy to the gamers.

Samsung has a history of using cheap parts in critical areas. Capacitors has been one area Samsung has a known history of going cheap, causing units to fail early. For that reason I would avoid them.

ASUS and HP do not modify Windows as bad as the other manufacturers. They have excellent build quality. They might add a lot of bloat but they also makes it easy to get rid of it.

Ultrabooks are the higher end of Wintel laptops but they have some of the same concerns as Apple. They make it next to impossible to change any hardware in them. Service of them will have to be done by the manufacturers. With most of them, you can not change your own battery or hard drive. They are designed to catch your eye but they are not any more special then other laptops except for the fact that they are slim or thin. Your paying for it being thin and slim. For the money your going to spend on it you can buy a much better laptop with more power.

Hybrids are the worse of the worse. The flip or detachable touch screens are just a disaster waiting to happen.

Never buy an All In One. They are far worst then laptops of any kind to service and they have a higher failure rate.

Choose wisely.

How can i build a good gaming laptop from scratch?

best gaming laptop graphics card image

Jaesic

I want to build a good gaming laptop from scratch with at least 2.2 ghz processor (i think its a processor) and a really good graphics card. i am also an editor and my render times are RIDICULOUS with my current laptop.

Answer
Key word right there "laptop". What you should be asking is how can I build a desktop that will allow me to run any game and flawlessly render video faster than I can edit it. And allow me growth room for future hardware.

Then I would drop a youtube link that will teach you all you would ever need to know about building a killer desktop...
http://www.youtube.com/newegg

As far as what you asking a laptop, you will pay 3 times more for a branded name puter that will never be up to a long time/intense task of making videos.

Where can I find a good gaming laptop that I can do monthly payments on?

James

I just want a good gaming laptop that I can monthly payments on.

Would like at lesat a nvidia 8700 graphics card, good processor, and 2GB of ram.

Thanks all :)

Answer
there is always the the manufactures websites. you will see all of their models and some will even custom make one for you. they will also offer their own credit on the website that will let you make the monthly payments.

many of the gaming laptops are from other brands you won't find in stores. such as asus laptops, or alienware etc. you can do a search on newegg.com and use their payment program.

one of the biggest advantages to getting a brand name you find at any store, is the warranty. just keep that in mind. i know dell and hp have gaming set ups. check them out.

Look for a computer with:
processor: Core i5 or Core i7
Ram: 6GB's or more
Graphics card: I don't think it matter's, Integrated is cheaper.
OS: Windows 7 (really, windows 8 will not run Sims)

I play Sims on my computer, it is a Dell Insprion 15R, 4GB ram, core i7, Integrated graphics card. Payed $549 at newegg.com. Look into buying from newegg.com

Sell your mac-book on eBay, Just ship it with tracking and signature conformation. 90% of buyers on eBay are legit, (now the sellers are a different story) I sell on eBay all the time never had a problem. Golden rule, if its over $200.00, add signature conformation. And always do tracking info.

What is the very best gaming laptop I can get for under 900 dollars?

best gaming laptops for minecraft image

Alex

Ive been trying really hard to find a gaming laptop lately but I'm no computer genius haha. I would love a laptop that can run skyrim on at least medium settings and minecraft on high setting with no lag. I'm not amazing with computers so a lot of help would be incredible. Sadly though I can't go over 900 dollars. Thanks! :)

Answer
Choosing a laptop computer can depend on whether youâre looking for a cheap computer or if youâre looking for the best performance. I will focus on looking for the best computer according to its performance without taking into account its price. There are many factors that can be considered when choosing a laptop, but the most important features to pay attention to are processor speed and amount of RAM, CD-ROM, USB and floppy drives, and hard disk space.

My current laptop is a Toshiba Qosmio X505-Q885. Its too big.
I love this laptop and its features especially the memory, ram and the capability to play hardcore
games like skyrim or sims 3 or warcraft or mass effect 3.
I don't want to give up the power of my current computer, but lets be realistic, I cant bring an 18inch gaming laptop into class. I want a new laptop that is slimmer and 15 inches or less. Price is no option so long as it is under $1500.

Is it possible to get a $700 Gaming PC that can play Skyrim on high settings?

Jett

My birthday is coming up and I want to get a gaming (laptop cause they're cheaper) so I can play AT THE LEAST 2011 games and below, but if I could get one for 700 that could play 2012 games like Skyrim that would be great! Thanks! I was thinking about going to my local computer shop.

Answer
Actually In terms of gaming and raw power... a desktop has a lot more to offer. You could buy say a 800 dollar gaming desktop, and the price for a laptop with about the same power, is about 1400-1600. If this changes you mind... take a look at MyCustombuild.com, they have a option for about 800 that will pack a much bigger punch than any 700 dollar laptop you will find on the market, will also play all games from 2011 and also ones from 2012(not ultra settings though).
ALSO*** Desktops are MUCH easier and CHEAPER to upgrade for gaming because usually the only upgrade you may need in the future is a video that you can pick up for 100-200 bucks to continue playing the newest titles. (really you can spend as much as you want on video cards, but 100-200 should do the trick.)

What's the best laptop for under a thousand dollars?

best gaming laptops under 3000 image

Q. Looking for one to get for my little sister. She's in high school and will be using it for school, but also for playing games like The Sims and stuff. I'd like to get her one that'll last her into college, if possible. Thanks very much for your help!

Answer
There's so many laptops. You should do research yourself. Asking here helps but this is such a general question. Look up reviews on different brands. You can find many great laptops for under 1000. Think to yourself. Do you want an ultrabook? Do you want this feature and that feature? That will narrow down what you want. Then just look at reviews and prices and make a decision. Good luck.

Keep in mind the more you spend on it, it will be more future proof. Seems like you got the right idea in mind. Spend good money but don't overdue it.

Some brands I like for average people are Samsung, Sony Vaio, Asus, and a few others. For gaming and high performance, Maingear and Asus ROG.

I haven't like Dell and HP because their build quality is usually bad but they have gotten better.
If you could find an Asus ROG (maybe a G55) laptop for under $1000 that would be awesome. But it's not very portable.

Don't buy a mac. They are overpriced.

For games make sure you have the latest integrated technology (found in sandybridge and ivybridge processors with intel hd 4000 and 3000) for games like the sims. For things like console games like MW3, Skyrim, you will want a dedicated GPU. I would recommend a 4 core processor highly. Any 4 core is plenty fast and you will love it. 8 gb of ram is also a must. That's all you need. 4gb is limited so 8 is perfect. An SSD is also an option but storage is limited for the price.

Good luck. Keep in mind build quality as well as performance.

What gaming laptops do you reccomend?

Q. Hello all, well I have been interested in buying a gaming laptop for a long time. Now just to put this out there I don't want a gaming desktop although they are considered the best for gaming, but I do plan on traveling a lot. I want to be able to run games that are coming up like MGS V Phantom Pain on max setting, but I also like modding games like Skyrim. I did check out the latest laptops by dell (alienware), but the most powerful laptop listed on the site is around 2000-5000. I don't mind an expensive laptop if it provides alot of power, but it seems like some things could be better. Do you think I should buy an Alienware laptop or do you guys have other top recommendations?

Answer
Ok so there are lots of gaming laptops out there but here are my three favourites:
1)Razer Blade Pro- You can get this laptop for under $3000 and it comes packed with 8gb's of RAM, 126GB/256GB/512GB of Hard drive(it's an SSD so it will boot up really fast) NVIDIA® GeForce GTX® 765M
(2GB GDDR5, with Optimus Technology)
17.3â Full HD 16:9 Ratio,
1920x1080 Full HD LED Backlit Screen
and btw the razer blade is SUPER THIN
http://www.razerzone.com/au-en/store/razer-blade-pro
2)The New Alienware 17 Laptop
The top of the range alienware laptop comes with and i7 proccessor, windows 8, 32GB's of RAM, and a 1TB Hard Drive
3)Macbook pro with retina dis[lay
Usually people say macs arent good for gaming but with the specs the new macbook pro with retina display has i could be able to run most games on high settings with no lag. Most games are made for windows but with bootcamp(this comes preinstalles with OSX) you can install windows on a mac

These are my ideas-hope it helped.

Q. I am trying to buy a new laptop primarily for gaming and I've limited my budget to maximum 1000$.
I looked into the Alienware M11x, but I've heard mixed reviews.
If you have anything to say about the M11x, feel free to share that as well.
Otherwise, can you give me some good gaming laptops within 800-1000 dollars?

Thanks in advance

I was going to say the Alienware m11x, it has everything you need.. i doubt any serious issues. People dont make $1000 computers to break.

Does anyone know of a good gaming laptop?

Oliver

I am looking for a cheepish gaming laptop around the £800-£900 under a £1000 hopefully, that can play games like: Skyrim, maybe the call of duty's. It would be great if it can play Minecraft at maximum graphics/ render distance. If you know of any that would be great, even a pc that is under £1000 that can play good games.Thanks all answers are appreciated!

Answer
The "Asus G75" series gaming laptops are pretty good, get the ones that cost around $1,200.

It should be able to run Minecraft fine. I paid $2,000 for my computer, it can run every game fine, but Minecraft still has issues XD Be sure to get the mod "Optifine"

Also, DON'T BUY AN ALIENWARE! They are EXTREMELY overpriced.

Lastly, I'm aware I can create my own computer for possibly a cheaper price, I'd rather not go through that hassle because I'm technologically impaired. Thank you for any useful input in advance!

Answer
I actually don't believe that those are the best, but you may disagree with me. I think MSI offers great gaming laptops. They are tough, are designed well, and also very powerful.

Also, I'm just going to put it out there that if you're not MLG or a very serious gamer, you probably don't need a gaming laptop. There are very powerful laptops out there with the specifications that you want, that are much thinner, much better designed, and are more reliable. The MacBook Pro with Retina display meets all of your standards. (MBP retina is a mac though, you probably want a PC for gaming). HP, Lenovo, and Samsung also have great powerful computers.

Sorry for actually widening the range of laptops for you to search from, but I really don't believe that gaming laptops are necessary. I hope it helped though! :)

How does this laptop processor stand up to others?

Wes

Is the AMD C-50 laptop processor crappy or average (used for games like Minecraft and Runescape and other in browser games)?

Answer
try and amd c-60 processor. these processor are not crappy,they are just designed for lower end uses. not everyone needs a super processor and for your games a nd needs you dont. need one. in exchange for being low end, you get a few advantages. first is battery life. not only do you have less charges,but that leads to a longer overall battery life. second becuase it uses alot less energy you get less heat stress on your laptop. you could run it for hours and it would barely warm up.that will save on the life of your laptop as well. you dont need a laptop cooling fan which not only saves money but if you need to carry it around with you it saves you the aggravation of carrying around the fan. so power isnt the only important thing in a laptop. you shouldnt pay for more then what you need.feel free to contact me if you need help finding a good laptop or need more info

Is iBuyPower a good place to buy gaming laptops?

Markiepoo

I am looking for the best gaming laptop for around 1000 dollars, and I am wondering if iBuyPower is a good place to find one. Otherwise, are there any other suggestions? I am willing to pay up to 1100 dollars, and I of couse will go for less. Thanks in advance!

Answer
Going for gaming I see. Amazon is a very good place to shop for almost anything online, and they have some good gaming laptops, the ones I like myself would be the Asus brand. They perform so well and I've never had one problem with this brand. It's just plain out nice and all my games run excellent on it.
I went and found an Asus Gaming Laptop at Amazon for you, It's just above $1000 but you should check it out. Check out the specs, it's definitely worth the money.

Here's a link to it:

What are some graphics cards that are compatible with my computer?

best gaming laptops july image

Bkk

My computer is an HP Pavilion a1240n. Yes I know, its an old computer, but im just looking to do some gaming on low graphics till i get my college laptop, which is in july. I upgraded my power supply a while ago so its 300w now. So, what are some graphics cards that will work with my computer? My budget is around 60-70 dollars
Also, does it matter what size the video card is?
mb wise?

Answer
You can get any graphics card you want as long as it is a PCI slot graphics card. Make sure it is not PCI Express, just PCI. It should work just fine. Also, since they're so outdated they should be pretty cheap.

Here's a page of them.

It doesn't really matter what size, but understand that more MB of memory is better. You're going to want to at least have more than 128MB to see any improvement beyond what you currently have. GOOD LUCK!
