[Rapperkqk]

Hi i wanted to know what laptop to get.. I do light gaming like maple story and team fortress 2( and not very often) and I will be using it at home and I spend a lot of time on the Internet so I want it to be fast for both gaming and web browsing thanks umm
So which is best for me
Amd a8 4500
Intel i3 3110
Intel i5 3210

The A8 has a much better IGPU for gaming, its actually pretty good full stop. so that's what you want.

What they said^^^^^^^

A8 is a no-brainer buy for laptops.

 

[Rapperkqk]

Really? But is it fast for web browsing and stuff???

Well any cpu is good for web browsing and stuff but if youre gonna game the a8 has a built in gpu so you dont spend an extra $100+

 

[Rapperkqk]

Okay but would amd a6 beat the intel i3 or i5

It all depends on what youre using it for

 

[Rapperkqk]

Like I said.. Light gaming and lots of web browsing

Is the a6 a quad core if yes then it ahould be fine but a8 or preferably a10

 

[Rapperkqk]

Ok thanks and this has nothing to do with CPUs and stuff but is the windows 8 good because I heard lots of bad reviews about it so should I get the windows 7 instead

Web browsing depends on your service provider. The CPU does not have any affect on web performance unless it is so slow that it needs time to process things.

As for playing games, if you are solely relying on the integrated graphics, then the A8 would be the better option.

Thats horrible most games require atleast 2.0ghz and that laptop is 1.6

 

[Rapperkqk]

Yeah but thatbdoesnt matter because even though its that low the benchmark is still higher than things like that are like intel pentium 2.4 ghz which supposedly has higher ghz

You are better off with the following laptop for the same price... well actually it does cost $1.99 more. Start collecting empty soda & beer cans.

- A8-4500m @1.9GHz
- Dedicated Radeon HD 7670m graphic card. Huge improvement to integrated alone.

that should be good enough for what you want it for.

 

[Rapperkqk]

Yeah but is acer a good brand?? I heard it was very bad

 

[esrever]

acer isn't good. I suggest toshiba if you are on a budget.

 

[hbeduryan818]
