I bought a laptop with gaming in mind over a year ago.
2.2 Ghz intel core 2 Duo T7500
4 GB RAM
Nvidia Geforce GT 512mb 8600
15.6 inch screen 1280x800
But I never use it for gaming really. It runs most games fine but I just find the hot little lappy too unwieldy for gaming comfortably. I did set it up with a 19inch moniter screen so I could play games on that screen instead, or supreme Commander across both screens. Also have a blue-tooth keyboard.
For a good gaming laptop you'd want a 17 inch screen, but those things are heavy and a bitch to be haulin to college. I'd advise goin for a standard run of the mill lappy for work and browsin the internet, and spent your extra cash puttin together a nice desktop if you want to play big pc games. |
I can't spend that much money. :/
All my extra money is going towards my next car.

My laptop costed 1200 euro ish over a year ago, (from dell) you can get similar spec laptops from them now for 700-800 euro but they don't put great GPU's into their inspirons anymore : ( I got 4 gigs of ram but that was too much and I've never used more than 2 when running any games. Half Life 2 all on full specs only took up 1.5gigs. But I chose xp instead of vista : D
I'm sure there's plenty of peeps here who'd know how to get more power for a lower price. Guys keep tellin me I never should have bought from dell : P

A minimum spec laptop for school would prob cost 600-700 dollars. I can't afford to build a $800-$1000 gaming computer on top of that.
