Hello and welcome to the forums :)
SAGER NP2098 is a good choice :

It has ATI HD 4650 which is a mid-range card and can play current games @ medium settings :)

Thank you for your replays :) I was looking for these laptops and i still wonder which one is better for me ;) Becouse i rlly dont understand this computer stuff very well. I know where what is but to choose what is beeter its kinda dizzy :) So if anyone could imagine that he is me and have really good understanding in these things, and choose one of them or any other possible laptop ;) i think it would help me :) Thank You for helping :)

P.S. What you think about MSI EX625-227US ?

I was thinking about SAGER NP2098, and read some forums and found this post.

What about costumizing SAGER ? But i think with my finance its not really possible, so it will be all base parametrs.

I think the NP2096 is a better buy than the NP2098, is there any chance the 2096 may be discontinued anytime soon?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NP2096
- WSXGA+ (1680*1050)
- 9 Cell

2098
- WXGA "LED Screen" (1366x768)
- "DDR3"
- ATI 4650

Sure the 2098 has the 4650, but there are plenty of notebooks with WXGA & ~4650 for $850 today.

Most notably the MSI EX625-227US loaded at $699-$750 and with the 4670.

The NP209# series losses its draw without WSXGA+ or greater, and a 9 cell battery.

Unless someone can tell me the 2098 will be updated with an LED WSXGA+ screen and retain the 9-cell.

Well most of those laptops have Intel 4500 VGA which isn't a good card,it can't even do well on medium settings,my vote goes on either of this 2 VAIO laptops which have G210M GPU and its more powerful than the intel 4500
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspag [...] 8125774202
and
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspag [...] 8119763906
The only difference between them is the color
