Hi! I'm kinda new to this community, but judging from what I've seen so far, i can say that this is one effective and intelligent forum! Anyway, I'm seriously considering buying this laptop, my primary reason is for gaming, (not the High End gaming, older games like Battle Realms, Generals, games that i missed growing up huhu) and RA3 but i would also want to be able to play some current games even if it's not at full graphic capacity, StarCraft II comes to mind. Here's the link http://www.villman.com/Product-Detail/MSI_GX620_X
conversion wise, it's roughly around $1,000.00 (laptops are kinda pricier here in the Philippines) My question then is what do you fellas think? Any input would be very much appreciated. thanks!

It's an older machine, but it certainly fits the bill. It's a good one.

Its ok..... the only thing that will hold you back is the CPU @ 2.0Ghz..... If you can upgrade the CPU later with at least a 2.4Ghz then I say go for it... If not get another brand....
