I am looking for a cheap laptop that can handle games like gta, final fantasy, starcraft.

Answer
If you mean GTA IV, then you won't find any laptops (or desktops for that matter) that can run it well under $1000 (USD, look up conversions to Euros). You can get a gaming desktop that will run other games well for around $700-$900, but if you want a laptop, start thinking around $1000 and up.

Is MSI a good laptop?

Florian

So i was searching for a normal gaiming pc for normal games(not massive ones).I found this msi gp60 with intel core i5 dual core,750 GB hard drive 8 GB ram ,2x2.50 ghz for 600 euro which would be about 900 $-950$.Should i get it.I have never heard of msi.

Answer
MSI is a well known manufacturer of high quality gaming computer parts. But on a sidenote this laptop does not have a dedicated gpu(most computers under 1000 don't), so gaming performance will not be great. I found you a slightly more expensive option, but is a lot better for your gaming needs. It will run most modern games like titanfall, bf4 on med-high settings at very high framerates(40-60fps). http://www.amazon.com/MSI-GE60-2OE-003US-9S7-16GC11-003-15-6-Inch/dp/B00CU9GKTO/ref=pd_sim_sbs_pc_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=18N6VCQ4PFH0H18N6H6W#productDetails

Good Gaming Laptops Under 500-600 Euros ?

Dragon

Hi, im looking for a good gaming laptop under 500, 600 euros... Mainly because if I were to go on long journey or such I could play games on the laptop. I dont know any good brands or anything... Thanks

Answer
I don't usually work with Euros, but Lenovo's Y series has always been a cheap and reliable gaming laptop. I am not sure about their new graphics cards, but those in their previous model, the y580, could run every game on the market at medium settings.

Here are some links to the prices. Now, I know they are in german, but it is only because I don't know of any website domains for countries that speak english and use euros (England uses pounds). So here we have the lenovo y500 and y580. Both are over your budget, but practically any laptop with a discrete graphics card (required for gaming at above minimum settings. Intel graphics are not discrete because they are built into the CPU) will. The y500 comes with an HD 7670, which I guess is passable but is nowhere near the performance of the gtx 660M found in the y580.

http://www.lenovoshop.com/de/prod/Lenovo%C2%AE+IdeaPad%C2%AE+Z585+%28MAD64GE%29/55006612A1


Personally, I own an MSI gaming laptop and am perfectly happy with it. I only paid a little over $1000 US dollars (~760 euros), and it can play all games on high-ultra settings in HD resoltuion (1920x1080).

If you are a computer geek such as myself, I'll list below the specs of my computer:

matte 1920 x 1080 screen 15.6" or 39.6 cm
intel i7 3630qm quad core processor
4 usb inputs
blu ray drive
12 gb of RAM
Nvidia gtx 675m graphics card with 2 gb GDDR5 memory
back lit steel keyboard
750 gb 7200 RPM Hard Drive
Windows 8

Should I get a Gaming Laptop or Desktop?

Arbiter

Hi. I've had this laptop for 3 years now and I was thinking of getting a new laptop but my uncle, who works in IT, has offered to go out and build a desktop with me. I'm heading to college shortly and if need be, I can use this laptop for college but it's quiet old and slow. So, I'm wondering, should I get a custom made Desktop or a Laptop? Let me expand a bit.
I have a budget of in or around â¬1000 and I will be using the laptop/desktop for gaming as well as running and installing other minor programs for my college course. To my knowledge, a custom built desktop would be much more powerful in terms of gaming and overall performance and you can get better specs for your money. At the same time, the mobility of the laptop is something I'm not too keen on giving up. I plan to use the laptop for college but If I do get a desktop I can use this laptop instead. I will be playing games like the Total War series and Chivalry, but I don't plan on playing any games that have heavy requirements (Battlefield 3, Tomb Raider).
So, I suppose there are a two questions in this...
1) Can I get a powerful laptop for â¬1000 euro that can run games like Chivalry and the Total War series on the highest settings (Ultra)?
2) If not, should I just custom build a desktop?

Answer
Stating your country and mentioning some online shopping for computer parts would help to give a better assessment. I do believe that importing from the UK should approximately equal locally sourced.
PCPARTPICKER has expanded and is now UK, Spain, Germany, France, and Italy, but is not as effective in showing all the best prices and available stores in each country.
I will use the UK as guidance of availability as 1.18 â¬/£ and try to account for shipping. Looking at about 800£ total to work with.
The requirements of the latest Total War and Chivalry are mid-grade and a GT 650M or GT 750M and core i5 in a laptop should handle them well, also allowing the newer games at lower settings. Desktop/Tower PC performance in the price range is substantially higher. For lowest prices of computers, laptops are stronger in performance, but in best value shopping, the break even is about â¬500 where Desktops can substantially outperform, the higher in price you go. If you are going away to a university, certainly a modern laptop is useful, but can be a supplement to a better desktop/tower. The only question is dormitory room space and whether you travel by air about desktop PC shipping convenience.

The MSI with GTX 660M, just crosses ultra settings, so that is the level you need as GT 750M/GTX 660M in a laptop. These are below GTX 550 Ti level, and as you can see, you get substantially higher gaming in a desktop at your price point.

sskkaattee

What is the best touch screen laptop for a 13 year old. I would need multi touch and it has to be under 1000 euro(around 1300 dollars or 900 pounds.. I would mostly use it for surfing the web, watching youtube, playing mini games and using editing photo's or videos. not big videos just trimming the start and end on 5 minute videos. I have saved up 300 euro from working and that is towards a laptop. it needs over 2gb memory either 32bit or 64bit operating system and over 4 hours of battery life. Also I with windows 7. preferably not toshiba or packard bell if they make one. it also might suffer from 1 fall a year on carpet.
must be over 11" and under 14". I know its alot to ask but I let my brother use mine for 2 days and 3 keys are broken off. It had a big virus and it messed up.

Help on Laptop Choice?

Joseph

Im looking for a laptop which will be well capable of playing Minecraft and Football Manager and other games.. Could people recommend a laptop to buy please. Under â¬1000 if possible :)

Answer
The question adds a twist, as entered into Yahoo Answers USA/Global with a Euros price point.
I guess UK for price points written in £ (Pounds) whether entered into UK Yahoo or not. Written in dollars $ gets bad replies when out of the USA. USA does not have duties and out of state (US States) purchases do not even collect the 5 to 8% state sales taxes. VAT (Value Added Tax) is typically shown in EU pricing and is 12 to 20% if I remember correctly and there is also duties and less competitive pricing. So, in US$ the price point can be 20% too high. In Euros, many USA people do not know the tax implications. I found that Saveonlaptops out of the London area is generally the best pricing though needs conversion from pounds and a shipping adder to the UK, and often can find similar at a bit higher price elsewhere with good shopping. This preface is an important start.

In the questions favor is the relatively high price and relatively low requirements of gaming. I try to look ahead a little thinking maybe young teenager (no insult here) and maybe in a couple of years may want a higher graphics game set and laptops are generally 3 to 5 year desired use.
Samsung, Asus, MSI, Lenovo Ideapads and Thinkpads, HP Envy maybe, XPS Dell, Business Toshiba, Sony are all the preferred although they vary in quality and reliability and general feature extras. Gigabit (10/100/1000) for wired connects of better streaming+online+download, go-back recovery, battery management, faster HDDs and SSDs, better keyboards and 1080p screens all should get consideration. A 1080p screen needs a higher graphics but is the only way for true ultra play.
Lenovo Essentials, Acer-Gateway, Compaq and cheaper HP, cheaper Toshiba, off-brand are all the lower end of the scale.

So, now, the findings. A ⬠is 0.86 £ and prices need a 10£ add for shipping +/-.
Will look here: http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/
and the goal is to either shop there, or find a similar laptop at a more convenient purchase place.
â¬1000 = £860, so a listed top ceiling of £850 and preferred lower. (I try to explain fully)
First, how low can you go in price?
http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/Lenovo_B590_1341799.html
A Lenovo B590 is in the Essentials line. That means "generic laptop". It ranks in class with Acer-Gateway, most of the HP-Compaq, Dells, low priced Toshiba. It is not intended as a high reliability unit and is aimed at price/performance. Looking at under â¬400 delivered the i3-3110M and integrated HD 4000 Mobility with a standard set of specifications and a few Lenovo special extras,
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Games-on-Laptop-Graphic-Cards.13849.0.html
and Game-debate by game (Football Manager 2013 is higher than Minecraft in requirements)
http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=5215&game=Football+Manager+2013&p_make=Intel&p_deriv=Core+i3-3110M+2.4GHz&gc_make=Intel&gc_deriv=Intel+HD+Graphics+4000+Mobile&ram=4&checkSubmit=#systemRequirements
The 7 CPU, 4 GPU, and 6 RAM scores (low 4 on the GPU) is enough to meet or exceed the recommended 4-4-4, but the "4" GPU is actually higher on the scale than the HD 4000 Mobility, so this becomes the bare minimum laptop expected in the 20's for frames per second on the x768 screen.
GPU scores: http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu_list.php
CPU on 1st tab.
Now, a couple more now that I provided the tools for your shopping.

One step up:
http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/Acer_Aspire_V3-571G_1266041.html
Acer (low), i5-3210M (mid), GT 630M (ok) at under â¬540. Starts the word "gaming".

Acer Aspire Timeline Ultra M3-581TG is a little higher in price with a low voltage i5 and GT 640M is better at graphics intensive games and lower at CPU intense and on average is better.

Lenovo Z580 also there is a quality step up and better specs overall than the Acer V3-571G but gaming is similar.

Acer Aspire V3-571G with the 3rd gen i7 and GT 640M £549.97 â¬655 is above your requirements already. http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/Acer_Aspire_V3-571G_1337250.html

MSI CX61 is a gaming system GT 645M 3rd gen std voltage core i7 â¬725 appx
http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/MSI_CX61_1356341.html
May be out of 10 links.
May find a Lenovo Y500 or Y580 around with 1080p core i7 3rd gen GT 650M. Check out Lenovo.com in your country and sellers of them.
This is impressive
http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/MSI_GX60_1345461.html
The CPU is weak as an A10-4600M, but amazing on the HD 7970M as a top-of-the-line graphics on a scale with GTX 675M and GTX 680M and is Full HD 1080p. Top of your price point but does have a cash back to try to get. There is a Lenovo Z500 Touchscreen with GT 740M which equals about the GT 650M and is at the top of price that is certainly impressive. The GTX 660M MSI is just over budget and is a better CPU than A10-4600M by a lot, but GTX 660M is lower graphics also by quite a bit but that is as high as you can go.

Good Gaming Laptops Under 500-600 Euros ?

Dragon

Hi, im looking for a good gaming laptop under 500, 600 euros... Mainly because if I were to go on long journey or such I could play games on the laptop. I dont know any good brands or anything... Thanks

Answer
I don't usually work with Euros, but Lenovo's Y series has always been a cheap and reliable gaming laptop. I am not sure about their new graphics cards, but those in their previous model, the y580, could run every game on the market at medium settings.

Here are some links to the prices. Now, I know they are in german, but it is only because I don't know of any website domains for countries that speak english and use euros (England uses pounds). So here we have the lenovo y500 and y580. Both are over your budget, but practically any laptop with a discrete graphics card (required for gaming at above minimum settings. Intel graphics are not discrete because they are built into the CPU) will. The y500 comes with an HD 7670, which I guess is passable but is nowhere near the performance of the gtx 660M found in the y580.

Personally, I own an MSI gaming laptop and am perfectly happy with it. I only paid a little over $1000 US dollars (~760 euros), and it can play all games on high-ultra settings in HD resoltuion (1920x1080).

If you are a computer geek such as myself, I'll list below the specs of my computer:

matte 1920 x 1080 screen 15.6" or 39.6 cm
intel i7 3630qm quad core processor
4 usb inputs
blu ray drive
12 gb of RAM
Nvidia gtx 675m graphics card with 2 gb GDDR5 memory
back lit steel keyboard
750 gb 7200 RPM Hard Drive

Any tips on making a 4-5 computer video game rig?

best gaming laptops under 1000 euro image

Q. Hello,
I am an 11 year old boy and im addicted to frozen throne and counter strike. Since me and all my friends play those games we came up with the idea of making a computer room with 4-5 computers. This idea is still in the making so all ideas are excepted. I already have one fully functional gaming computer and one unused computer screen, we are under a budget of 1000 euros. Also, next year in school we will be receiving laptops that we will take home at the end of each day. Would those be of any use? If possible please include links to what we should buy.
Preferably from these websites...

Thank you in advance.

Answer
you are in luck. Frozen Throne and Counter Strike are some of the lowest requiring games out there right now. Any basic computer should run them fine. Just look for the cheapest computers, they can still run those. 1000 euros isnt much for 5 computers, but its still possible. Maybe buy used?

I need a good gaming laptop for new games,please help?

Paul Kelly

the main game i need to play is fallout new vegas,i was going to get an alienware m11x i was told by a website that the hardware in it would not be able to play fallout,here are the specs of it 1GB GDDR3 NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 335M
3072MB 800MHz Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM [1x2048 + 1x1024]
Intel® Core⢠i5 520UM (3M Cache, 1.06 GHz)
My limit is between 1000 and 1100 euro,all help is greatly appreciated as this is my first go at proper pc gaming
Thank You

Answer
If I'm reading that right, you say this machine has 3 gigs (3,072mb) of RAM. Thats a little bit low, unless you want to run under low quality settings. The game sometimes lags with up to 5 or 6 gigs (but usually is fine with 5 or 6 if you don't have other programs running on your computer while you are playing). The video card seems fine. The motherboard (if 1.06GHZ refers to the processor speed) is a bit slow. The game suggests a dual processor with at least 2.4 gigs of memory (your processor is 1.06 gh x 2, which is barely over 2 gig). I say its better to get *above* the suggested specs. Here is your best bet: Get a quad processor+ with 4-6 gigs of ram. The other factors in how well your game will be handled will be your graphics card (1 decent 1 gig card should be fine) and the operating system you use. That system seems to be on the low end, so plan on playing this game in low quality if you get that system. There are plenty of laptops out there that have 2.4+ gig processors (dual or quad core), with 6+ gigs ram, and a 512-1 gig vid card that will be fine for your game. I'd suggest looking for those specs first if you plan on getting a system for gaming.
