Gaming laptop

[toonfan2005]

Hi I'm looking at buying a laptop for playing a few games, and are wondering if you'd be able to tell me if this is any good. I play football manager, dayz and occasionally battlefield.

Thanks in advance.

I'd avoid linking competitor websites, you'll get in trouble D:

Legion 5 or Legion 7

Thanks for reply and advice, so was that other laptop worth it or was the 5 or 7 better laptops?

What's your budget?

I would take a look at some of the MSI and Gigabyte laptops listed here:

Could most probably go to £1500 if I could get a decent one that will last a good few years as I'm a casual gamer. What do yous think of this one from overclockers? From a purely gaming perspective, anything particular weak?

Thanks in advance

Can say that the asus or lenovo laptops are the best from what I've found. Legion 5 or 7 would be ideal

I would say it's a high-specced gaming laptop so should cope well with whatever you want to play. OCUK also gives a 1 year warranty on it. So yes, it's definitely an option, plus you would be supporting OCUK.

I'll have a look at them as well, thank you for the reply.

It did look good I must admit, so it's definitely a contender, I'm not too clued up on laptop gaming machines, but am I right in saying that card should last a few years gaming wise. Thank you for the reply.

Yes, it's a high spec card.

That medion you linked is very good on paper, the chassis is sound/etc.
The company behind Medion though (I think it's actually a lenovo sub) aren't too good keeping on top of patches/drivers/other stuff. There's plenty of other companies use the same chassis (my XMG Neo is basically a twin of a similar medion) so if you can be arsed hunting around for "parallel support" drivers/etc wise, sure. I'd perhaps consider a slightly more reputable brand otherwise, just for the aftersales (even before warranty/etc might be a consideration).
