Yeah, kinda just asking if it would be good for school and gaming. I have a desktop for gaming tho so I am just looking for a laptop that can be used for avarage gaming, not something hardcore. And for school. So what do you guys say? You need moar info?

I wouldnt expect amazing things in terms of gaming performance given its using mobile chip integrated graphics, but its about as good as you can get in that regard on the Intel side. If you can find an equivalent APU laptop, that might be the better bet if your fine to sacrifice CPU grunt.

This should be a fine laptop for school. The only concern I would have is that it only has 500GB of storage space. This may not be optimal if you plan on storing a lot files of any type. It also only runs 5400 RPM, which may affect loading times a bit. Otherwise it looks pretty good.

As far as gaming, this should be okay and will play most games on Low-Med settings. However if we're talking games like BF4 you may run into some issues.
