Hi guys,
I've been looking for a computer that would primarily be used for games. I'd like it to be around 600$ or lower and preferably a laptop. I don't really care how outdated it is as long as it can run these games:
World of Warctraft
Team Fortress 2
Star Wars: The Old Republic
Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition
World of Tanks
Dungeons and Dragons Online
And please provide links to any computers you recommend :bounce:
 
Solution
a PC for the same price usually will beat a laptop in performance, especially in gaming. Also for $600 your laptop will be able to run those games, but don't expect to be running them at high settings.
This website keeps an eye on the best deals for gaming laptops in all price ranges, you can check it out: http://www.gaminglaptopsjunky.com/.
Some links might be out of date because prices change rapidly these days and/or good deals get out of stock quickly.
However, any good deal you might find now might be obsolete when the black friday/cyber monday deals come out soon, it might be worth the wait.
If you don't care for refurbished laptops, www.cowboom.com also has a good range on used/refurbished laptops.

Solution
There are alot of $600 builds out there, you can find some or build your own at pcpartspicker.com
Alot of the good folks here can recommend a $600 build but you will need to specify if u also need a case, monitor, mouse/keyboard, etc. or only the parts to upgrade.
