Which laptop is the best for high graphic games( like cod black ops 2...) for under 500 pounds?

Dylan

Answer
Well first of all, by no means is Black Ops 2 a graphic-intensive game. In fact, it looks pretty crappy in comparison to most games.
Secondly, you aren't going to find a laptop for under 500 pounds that can run it smoothly. Most laptops don't have the processing power to run games, and if they do, they cost a lot. Building a PC (desktop) is cheaper, but it still won't cost under 500 pounds if you want it to run the games you play on max (maybe Black Ops 2, but no guarantee on others).

What are the best laptops under $500?

Azarias

My last laptop which was a HP Mini 311 with nvidia ion recently broke down, and I've been looking for a suitable replacement. I am looking for a laptop with dedicated or discrete graphics for under $500. I'd like to be able to run WoW, EVE Online, and StarCraft II on medium-low settings. Also I like to use photoshop and would like things to run smoothly in general.

I don't mind games running 20-30 fps, or using relatively low settings, I just want it to run what I consider to be decent. My preferred brand is HP, but I am also open to others.

I would like for it to way less than 5 pounds and have a screen size of 14 inches, but I could go bigger.

Laptops under 500 dollars fast good memory?

Jack

So i'm looking for a laptop under 500 bucks, i do a lot of photography so i'd have lots of pictures on there (148 GB) with a photoshop elements or lightroom (1 gb) with a few other programs on there (ill call it 1.5 gb). On top of that i'd have a pretty good amount of music and such from my iTunes (152 GB). I might get a music editing software I'm not sure which kind since i don't have it yet or the equipment but i do know that it's something i want. I'm gonna wanna put a couple games on there like mine craft, a few horror games, stuff like that. I'm also gonna be using video chat. So all of this considered, can some give me some computers under 500 bucks, 600 if necessary, that have room for all of that, and will run applications smooth and fairly quickly (i don't mean like, click it and it's instantly open, but not like i could make myself a sandwich while I'm waiting for it to load slow) and video chat won't lag. Also if someone could also explain to me exactly what steam is that would be great.

Check out that laptop.

It has 1TB of storage with it's blazing fast i5 processor, you've be able to blow through your pictures on Photoshop. You have Windows 8 which can be updated to the latest OS 8.1 for free. You'll be on your way with the 6 hour battery life and being light at around 4.8 pounds. I'll have to admit though that the graphics isn't the best with the Intel HD 4000, but you'll be able to play Minecraft at a high frame-rate with the proper settings.

I do lots of video editing and photo editing, and I recommend not to put all your pictures onto the actual hard drive since it can fail(all eventually do). I would set up some RAID NAS or something for your pictures.

What laptop should i get?

Garrett

I will be browsing, downloading, gaming, video chat. Has to be a good price like under $400.

Answer
Under $400 highly limits your gaming and weakens your video chat capability. Pretty sure you should want gigabit ethernet to support your video chat and download, so on low price, Dell is out. You could suffer quality, but HP/Compaq (ughh!) maybe your choice unless you get lucky with an Acer or Lenovo sale. http://www.pcworld.com/article/211402/reliability_and_service_laptops.html
Probably looking for the super sale close-outs. Will edit back a couple of possible towards the limit of $400. Remember that the true price without contract of an iphone is over $500.
Let's start with this:
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1296796&CatId=4938
Now the question is can you do better.
Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 14 0199-A52 Notebook PC - AMD Athlon II Dual-Core P360 2.30GHz, 4GB DDR3, 320GB HDD, DVDRW, 14" Display, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, Red, Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI, but low end ATI Radeon HD 4250 graphics, good audio, 5 pounds weight, 0.3mp cam which is low res, but this is a start for comparison. $380 plus tax and delivery in a good brand nice system from a good seller.
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1126317&CatId=4938
$400 plus tax and delivery. AMD Phenom II X4 N970 2.2GHz, 15.6" Display. Doubles CPU power, raises screen to a 15.6. 5.74 lbs and CAM at 1.3 megapixel from Acer is OK. Although not as sleek a system as Thinkpad Edge for style and quality and extra special features, $20 upgrade is worth it by a lot for the CPU and CAM and extra screen size. (Acer is a 5552) Still checking.

This looks interesting @ $430 plus tax and any delivery fee:
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=19198&CatId=4938
http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF06b/321957-321957-64295-3929941-3955552-5060880-5060884-5081511.html
Intel® Core⢠i3-2310M (2.10 GHz, 3 MB L3 cache)
The Intel graphics is somewhat better than the HD4250 in the other 2, though can't do much better at your price point. The CPU is just slightly lower than the Acer, but not by very much. You get a 7200rpm HDD and USB 3.0 according to the HP Web site. Camera is OK though it does not show megapixels, it is HD. It is a $580 retail for $430 at Tigerdirect. Seems a little better even with the HP service. It is an OK choice. Just $20 more, and they bump it up to 8GB at $450. Now you are talking value even if a little above your intention.
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1415910&csid=_22
This Asus at the same $450 is a lot better hardware and brand in general, but cuts it back to 4GB RAM, 0.3mp camera and 5400 rpm HDD and no USB 3.0, but does include a 1 year accidental damage, Altec Lansing speakers. It is a comparison.

Best gaming laptop under 500 pound?

George

Im looking for a laptop that will run these games :
-BF3, dont mind low settings but if possible higher
-Minecraft, max settings (or less but would hope it could run max)
-all others i can think of are less demanding.
i hope for decent framerates, 60 if possible, but will settle for lower (nothing lower than 40 please, i know 30 is fine but i dont find that very playable)
i think 500 pound is a good enough price as my 800 pound desktop runs bf3 ultra at 60 fps and minecraft max at never lower than 150.
i was looking at a Acer Aspire V3-571G-6622

situations where the tablet PC could be useful for students or business professionals?

Abby is me

yeah I need a bit of help. ^^;; any help is better then no help at all.

thanks for those who answer!

Answer
I don't feel that the tablet PCs offer any real value as compared to a standard laptop. They are a bit smaller and lighter and those touch sensitive screens are really slick, but when I look at the prices -- ouch!

If you can tolerate a really small screen and keyboard have a look at the new "mini" PCs which range in price from $300 to $400. Weighing in at or under 2 pounds they make a great 2nd computer.

My personal preference is for a conventional laptop with a 14 to 15.5 inch sreen. (The 17" screen laptops are too big for me to tote around comfortably.)
For somewhere between $400 and $500 there is a wide selection of laptops with fast processors, 2GB of RAM, 80 or GB of hard disk and built in wireless networking. If you are not a gamer they are more than adequate and can serve as a 1st computer.

Back to your question. A tablet PC is quite impressive, but if you are a decent typist they make no sense (to me). I have been using Palms for seven years and still find that more often than not I bring up the keyboard rather than hand print my text -- and if you have used a Palm you know that using that little plastic stick to peck out text is a real pain in the neck.

Not being a gamer and being a touch typist I find no need for anything other than an inexpensive laptop. Currently on my second laptop (a 6 year old Compaq Presario) I am currently in the market for a new laptop and can't justify spending more than $500 for a new laptop that will give me a faster processor, 4 times the RAM and 2 to 4 times the disk capacity plus DVD write and builtin wireless networking.

Hope this helps
