XxwonderbredxX Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) YO! okay. I might wanna buy a new laptop... Because mine is like 4-5 years old, it's slow now. I wanna spend up to $700 bucks. I normally play games that don't need anything more than a GTX 670. (CS:S, killing floor, L4D2, CS:GO, BF3) So whatever that converts to a laptop GPU. I want a Nvidia GPU. I want a i5 Intel. No AMD.. I want a laptop with lighting on the front of it/ keyboard if that's possible. I need it for schooling and pc gaming on the go. I was looking at Dell XPS's... Any suggestions...?

Crysis Shots Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Alright well I first of all suck at laptops but anyways I have this laptop a Asus http://www.asus.com/au/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/R500A/ I run fine on my games and everything is okay. So far I havent had any problems but you can check that out if you are looking for a cool laptop. My review is like a 9/10 or 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Short Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) You won't get anything similar to a 670 gtx in mobile form for $700, you're probably going to have to make due with either an amd apu laptop or intel + integrated.

BranHorse Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 yeahhh not gonna happen. Heres a chart http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html To put things in perspective the top performing laptop cards are two tiers below a 670 and are only in laptops that cost at least double what your're paying. And thats not accounting for the throttling that occurs in laptops due to heat and power issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_iMPAKT Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Laptops are too pricey for a decent one. The best bet for a gaming laptop is well over 1300 USD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Headband)(EG) Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Please stay away from Dell what ever you do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxwonderbredxX Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 Okay, how about.... A laptop that can run CS:S, Killing Floor, and L4D2... So I don't even know what GPU that would be. like a GTX550? idddkk. Under $800. I'll use my PC for hardcore gaming, and the laptop when I go to my friend's crib to play them. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoorStar_Nutbag Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hardcore gaming on a laptop? Sounds crazy to me , go buy you a 300 $ netbook and then a 500$ gaming tower that is upgradeable in the future , when you get money later you can upgrade it to your likings. Dont count AMD out though, the A10 kavari APU is a quad ore CPU with a graphics chip built in (no GPU needed). AMD is so proud of it they are including a copy of battlefield 4 to prove you can run it on a 120$ CPU/GPU combo. you can do a tower build with a A10 APU that will only run you about 350$ shipped inside the US. Go cheap on HDD and Ram and uprgrade it later. you could even add a GPU later on for better performance. I imagine you could run CSGO at 100+ FPS. i run a quad core AMD with a GTX 760 and get over 250+ FPS on CSGO and built for around 800. I also run BF4 at like 50-70 FPS on high setting at 1080p 1920 resolution. About to upgrade to AMD 8350 though. I guess my point is dont invest in a laptop it wont be worth shit in 3 years were as a tower will be upgradable for years to come. Tower over laptop. netbooks at 300$ will do all the schoolwork you need unless your into video editing which i would just go mac in that case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
