Neither is a gaming laptop. Nor either will run MW3. Finally, you cannot upgrade a graphics card in a laptop.

My suggestion: get a desktop. For the same price, you'll get a machine that will be able to play those games without any lag whatsoever at much higher settings.

 

[AmmarxZ]

What do you recomend man?

 

[AmmarxZ]

And what about the dell i sprion 15r i5?

 

[Sunius]

They're both terrible.

Get a desktop PC.

 

[AmmarxZ]

I need a laptop for university and like this :S
I already have console xbox and ps

What laptops are good for gaminf

 

[Sunius]

Something with GTX 660m/670m/675m.

Hi

Choosing a GAMING laptop is easy (I sell them in my shops)

All you have to do is buy one that costs MORE THAN £2000/$2500 ...

All the best Brett

 

[AmmarxZ]

Haha
2000
If
I
Had
That :S
Max is 600<<

Hi

Then you WONT get a GAMING laptop... a browsing/docs laptop yes, but not gaming..

All the best Brett

It not necessary to buy a gaming lap
But a lap that can play games like cod in good quality

 

[Sunius]

Why do these people not understand it...

Normal laptops aren't made for gaming. They will not play new games on lowest settings, they will lag and overheat.

Gaming laptops start at $1000-1100.

If you want good gaming quality and cheap price, buy a desktop. For $500, you could get a decent desktop that would play games at medium-high settings at 1080p resolution, and on higher settings if the monitor's resolution is lower.

My suggestion: get a cheap netbook for school and spend the rest for a decent desktop.

 

[AmmarxZ]

I meant 600£ dude
About 1000$

 

[WuZee]

you can buy a alienware m14x if you WANT a laptop so badly..1000$

 

[Sunius]

Well, considering the fact that you live in UK, which means you're a VAT payer, and that means prices are 20% high than in USA, this is the best deal I could find:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-550P5C-15-6-inch-Laptop/dp/tech-data/B007VBEQ56/ref=de_a_smtd

I know it's over your budget, but that's the minimum I'd go as far as gaming go.

Gaming wise, it's as fast as 350-400 pound desktop would be.

It will play games like Far Cry 3 or Hitman Absolution on medium settings at 1366x768 resolution. Games like MW3 should be playable on high settings.

 

[AmmarxZ]

Is the macbook pro13.3
Good last question :s

 

[AmmarxZ]

Im not in uk theres no tax or vat where i live

 

[Sunius]

I suppose something like this would be great then.

Remember though, for the same price, you could build twice or even thrice more powerful desktop.
