best gaming laptops small image
Q. I would like to buy a cheap, good gaming laptop. Preferably below 500 euros. Any suggestions? It also needs to be available in PAL regions.
Answer
Cheap and gaming are somewhat opposites in the computer world. You get what you pay for. Laptops are not necessarily the best for gaming, the reason being that as games get bigger and more complex your computer starts hitting the wall for speed and performance. Laptops are designed to be small and portable, to do this they have limited what the computer is capable. You lose the upgradability, the thermal solution, smarter power consumption and cheap parts. When choosing a laptop, your going to be looking for a good manufacturer since it is through the manufacturer the computer can be easily fixed and upgraded. Dell is a large company that has good support as long as you keep your warranty, however they have their reputation for cutting corners and low grade. Toshiba is a good company, although they tend to have slightly higher prices.
When shopping for your laptop I would rather suggest looking for computers within your budget, within your desired performance, and then research the reputation of the manufacturer.
Now days a good computer runs at about these specs
3.0 GHz Dual Core (I only shop Intel but that is a matter of preference and opinion)
4Gb of fast ram RAM
100 GB HDD (This is actual storage space, bigger the better but that is counter intuitive with laptops)
Windows 64 bit (With out the 64 bit version you lose the ability to use better hardware and are limited to only 4gb of ram with 32 bit version)
Make sure the laptop has a good thermal solution, if the manufacturer mentions it has a focus on thermal, that should be enough (most ignore it)
That should be all you need to know, ultimately I recommend building a desktop for all of the pros that a laptop doesn't have. Desktops allow you to build your own computer, and at your own price. Usually this is more expensive than buying from a manufacturer but you have the ability to upgrade and swap out parts as you see fit.

What are the cheapest gaming laptops?

Hello, I am aiming towards a nice gaming laptop similar to Alienware, but not as expensive. I just want to be able to play games on PC without all the lag and what not.
What are the cheapest but decent gaming laptops?
Please no desktops.
Answer
Well if you want a formidable gaming laptop I'd prefer the Alienware M11x, small but powerful starting at $599. The M11x can handle performance greedy games on low-medium settings. I'm actually getting the M14x for $1400 which is just a beast. You're going to have to spend a little money if you want high performance on the highest settings and high resolution. Other laptop brands do exist but they're all the same.
High price-> high performance, high resolution, bigger screen over $1400
Low price-> moderate performance & low gfx settings $800-1100
