What is the best laptop to buy for gaming under 800 dollars?




Gabriel F


Wanted to buy a new laptop because this one is crapping out on me. Anywho have any advice on which laptop to buy? I would like it to have a good video card because I want to be able to play current games on it like Fallout 3 or something.


Answer
I understand that you want a gaming laptop that's under $800, but under that price tag won't get you much. If you want to buy a good quality gaming laptop, I'd recommend that you should spend at least $1200. Gaming laptops are expensive because it's hard to put good graphic cards into computers. Most laptops run the graphics from the motherboard, but a separate graphic card can be rather pricey. The best brands for gaming are Alienware (Made by Dell) And Voodoo (Made by HP). with these brands, just DESKTOPS start at around $1200! For $800, you'll be able to get a good Toshiba, Dell or HP, but for sure not a gaming computer. If you want to save money and get a real gaming laptop, then build one yourself. IT takes a bit of effort and may take a bit longer, but you will still be able to save some money, and you can buy the parts separate so you'll get exactly what you want.
Overall, I'd recommend to either spend about $1200 and buy a gaming computer or about $1000 and build your own gaming computer. $800 will get you a nice laptop that can run your games, but the graphics won't be as good. So you decide, and I hope that I helped.

Happy 'top hunting!

Good gaming computer under £800?

Q. So I've saved up roughly £800 for a good gaming computer, I mainly want one that can hold a 16gb ram and is extremely reliable for full HD gaming with no lag at all.

I already have a very good graphics card and monitor etc. I only want the pc itself so could someone please recommend me one or give me a link so a website in which ill be able to get one? I'm not to good with the in depth pc details but can understand most of it. Thanks much appreciated.

This is a beautiful CyberPowere that I am also considering buying. A $500 dollar computer seems the exact opposite of a budget, I know... That's how I feel. But this boy is ridiculously powerful, and compared to other gaming PC's with exact or lower specs, it's cheap. I like the design of its case also, but that's irrelevant.
Reading customer reviews, it seems to be very easily upgraded. One man claims he bought it, spent around $500 dollars on upgrades and software updates, and it now bests a $3000 Alienware. I like the sound of the that.

I am comparing the above mentioned with this beast. It doesn't look as pretty, and it's on Windows 7 instead of 8, but it's nearly as powerful. It's case is actually easier to open than the other one, making upgrades easier. And it's dirt cheap: $499.00. To me, that sounds like a lot of money, but like I said, PC Gaming setups can cost thousands.

So, it's really up to you. I'm leaning towards the first one. It's a extra $50 dollars, but that's not bad for a beautiful and powerful computer.
So, I hope I helped :)

Unfortunately, I don't know US to Euro conversions. I assume $500 dollars wouldn't be more than 800 in your currency. Sorry, mate.

My gaming pc is good or not? (New Delhi, India)?




Rocky M


Building an all round PC- Need ur suggestion plz(New Delhi, India)?
Will the below configuration fulfill my needs?
Do i need to add any other parts so that PC runs smoother with games and all other necessary softwareâs
à Processor: Intel Quad Core 2.4 GHz Q6600
à Motherboard: Intel G33TL
à HDD: 250 GB Sata 7200rpm Barracuda
à RAM: 2 X 2 GB DDR2 667MHZ i am not getting 800 MHz
à DVD writer: Sony 20x
à Monitor: Samsung 17 inch
à Keyboard & Mouse: Microsoft
à Speaker: Creative low range as i will be using headphone most of the time
- I am not a full time gamer as i used to be but i will be playing few games like half life 2, Call of duty 4, GTA 4. War of worcraft all parts, Lord of the rings games and few others like these games.
- most of the time i will be using my pc for watching movies online and on DVD, chatting and surfing and also few mid range softwareâs



Answer
First of all: I would get a better CPU. the Q6600 is 2 dualcores in one. That is not very efficient. I would recommend the E8400 or the Core2 Quad Q9300.

Secondly: I would recommend an 8800 or 9800 GT GPU(graphics card). One of my favourites is the GTX280.

I only buy Intel CPU's and Nvidia GPU's

The third thing is: I would get at least a 10 000rpm HDD.It will gratly improve the loading speed of games and files.

Lastly: 3GB RAM will be too little in the near future. I already run programs that need 3GB. If you do not want to upgrade in a year or so, I would say get 4GB. Any more will be wasted, unless you have Windows Vista 64-bit, but still, it would be a waste to get more than 4 GB. Get 800MHz RAM and not 667MHz RAM.


Enjoy your games.
