You can even get $400 notebooks.
They just don't do very good running modern games.

I think that Lenovo IdeaPad Z570 with it's Core i5 2450M 2.50GHz CPU & Geforce GT 630M graphics card should run Diablo 3 on medium graphics.
NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M

I'm not seeing any deals that are better ATM.
How soon do you need to buy the new notebook?

i am looking to buy asap... even today.. i just want to make the right choice cause cash is tight


If a $600 laptop is well worth the extra $200 over a $400 laptop then thats fine. Just want to be sure its worth it.
