Forums - Gaming Discussion - Budget gaming laptop?

As a desperate Christmas gift idea, I'm looking to replace a laptop for someone.

Looking for something that can run nearly anything on low settings with a good framerate.

Any suggestions for a laptop between $500 and $700?

This is the first gaming laptop that pops at newegg and is just within your budget http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834234023

Edit: I don't know how they manage to squeeze a 960 in so thin frame, 960m shouldnt be much weaker than desktop 960?

"Budget", "Gaming" and "Laptop" in one sentence, I've never seen anything like this in my whole life.



Yeah, I figured it was a stretch of a concept.

That just might work...
