As the title says, I was looking for a laptop that could keep up with games at a decent level. I'm just looking for smooth frames on games on around Medium Settings. I know this budget might restrict my search range, I'm not even sure if its even possible to find a price for performance that I'm looking for.

The best I could find was the Lenovo Z40 (Intel i3) http://

Is this the best that I could find for my budget? If anyone can recommend me better laptops, I would appreciate it!

I own a wide variety of games on Steam that I might play, but for comparison lets say I'm looking to run Skyrim on medium settings smoothly

Uh you may need to up your budget. I think the best the GT 820M can do is gonna be something like 720p and at low settings.

If you want to play Skyrim on Medium smoothly, I'd say you should probably look at something with the GT 840M

This one is a bit more but will perform MUCH better compared to that lenovo. Stronger CPU and better GPU on top of more memory.
