Narwhalsar

I'm on a basic non gaming laptop (windows 8, 2012-2013ish)..
Are there any good games you can suggest?
Well I have 4 gigs of RAM and it has Intel Pentium.. I really don't know what stats would helpp.. I'm a noob
and it's 64 bit

Answer
By just knowing the OS and the date I really know nothing, but I'll try.
Excellent games than can be played on middle-of-the-road or lower computers

Terraria (Available on steam)
Team Fortress 2 (Free to play on steam)
Portal/Portal 2 and Half Life 2 are fun, (though rather short) single player games.
Skyrim is incredibly fun, can be played on low graphics on most computers.

What's more important to running PC Games Video Card or CPU Speed?

JYayAD

Getting ready to by a new gaming laptop, if you had to cut corners on one what would it be? Do you buy the latest and great video card with a decent CPU or the latest and greatest CPU with a decent video card?

Answer
Most CPU's today can handle any game to date just fine. I would be worried about the Video card, especially when it comes to laptops, because you cannot upgrade laptop video cards so if you get something crappy, you'll have to live with it :/

What is the best gaming laptop under 500 us?

best gaming laptops under 500 image

Anisur

i want to buy a gaming laptop under 500 us .so help me

Answer
Pure gaming laptops are really expensive and most of them are above $1000 but as you have budget of $500 so it is better for you to see the processor and memory because in the end they decide the performance of a laptop and for gaming they are also really important. There are many available in the market with price of under $500. Here is a list from which you can choose:

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_nr_p_36_0?rh=n%3A172282%2Cn%3A%21493964%2Cn%3A541966%2Cn%3A565108%2Cp_36%3A2421886011&bbn=565108&ie=UTF8&qid=1367083186&rnid=2421885011&tag=faowiw-20

For your ease I would recommend Toshiba Satellite C855-S5343 which is of $489 which means it is under your budget and also it has good processor and memory. The technical specs shows that it has Intel Core i3-3110M 2.4 GHz processor with 6 GB DDR3. It has storage of 500 GB 5400 rpm Hard Drive. And it has 15.6-Inch Screen with Mobile Intel HD graphics which can be good for gaming. So this can be one option.

Here is a review from an actual user which will help you in deciding if you think this is appropriate for you.
