Forum :: Lounge :: gaming laptop?

hi guys i am up to buy a new laptop and my budget is 3000 QAR = 823.995 USD or less than that.

 so i really need expert advice i want a laptop at least can handle crysis 2 ,gta 4 , bf3 etc... 

what do you thinks guys?

edit: i read in toms hardware forums that a 500$ desktop can smokes 1400$ laptop so am confused

Get a mac....

Lol, no i heard that alienware laptops are amazing for gaming but i don't know much about them apart from that they're expensive.

Yes definatley get a desktop if you have space and don't want to game on the move, lol, I have a $800 desktop that will run skyrim on ultra high graphics without any effect on the FPS, BF3, and pretty much any other game you can think of.

Get a dell.

My desktop was around $1200 so I bet you could get a really good dell laptop for your budget.

The good times are killing me.

I have an $800 desktop as well it runs, Skyrim, Call of Duty, Assassins Creed, Minecraft and World of Warcraft perfectly. I really don't like laptops especially for gaming ;/.

@lord mac? lol, am thinking of desktop but where i live "Qatar" its very expensive /any recommendation?

@zack any model number?any recommendation? 

@chow i know but i want laptop cause me and my friends playing game on the go

Build one. If you dont want to learn than I can probably build one for you... but it matters where you live.

I think these computers are pretty good this one is $729 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227408

My suggestion - i cannot fault it, I have the i7 one but this one is pretty much just as good, very fast, loads of storage room, great RAM.

Don't build one unless you know what you're doing, my friend tried and he ended up paying someone to do it for him it.

about how building computer is hard youtube will do the job

Building a computer is easy as making a pie. All you got to do is take two weeks out of your life and start watching youtube videos. Also read tutorials, because they are more descriptive. I took me a week to learn, but I also took lot of time learning what each component does.

But picking out parts is the hardest thing. It took me forever to look for the right parts and if each component would work together.

100% true picking the parts is the hardest/ the most hardest paring power supply with the right component in my opinion
