Currently running a q8200 @2.33ghz and has a nvidia 9500 gt 1gb graphics card which is just about okay for games like left 4 dead 2 on medium settings. Would ideally like something more powerful and if possible could run metro 2033 smoothly on atleast low settings (hard task I guess) xD

Willing to go second hand and use auction sites.

Must:
* have built in wifi
* run Photoshop and Dreamweaver cs5 preferred
* Be able to play at least team fortress 2, left 4 dead/2, Dead Island on medium if possible
* have a resolution of ???? x 800+ (any smaller would make games/using photshop a bit of a pain?)


Would like but no required:
* one usb 3.0 port
* be able to run metro 2033 on atleast low setting with 30fps
* backlit keyboard
* aluminium casing (have a habit of chipping plastic ones or the casing starts pulling apart at the front)

£300 is my ideal budget if I was to buy today but can go to £400 if I wait a week or so if there is nothing in my price range.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking!
 
just found "Acer Aspire 5830TG 3.0GHz TURBO i5 6GB RAM 750GB HDD 8Hrs battery TimelineX" which has a gt 540m and is also aluminium which I should be able to get for around 300-350 second hand, anyone think this is suitable or any advice on this laptop?
