Hi, I'm no expert at laptop's so i'm hoping that there are a few guys on here, that know their stuff about laptops. Getting a new laptop for my 21st so i just want to know what numbers i should be looking for when it comes to Graphics card, RAM, harddrive storage etc

Bearing in mind i want football manager to be very quick and also i want to play games which require a more powerful laptop.

Also what make is reliable and make good value laptops?

Doesn't look that cheap? You can go into Tesco and pay £250 for one with 4gb Ram, 300gb hd, dual processor etc, and it comes with a years warranty.

That has double the ram, triple the the HD capacity, Dual at 2.7 ghz and 2gb of dedicated graphics. What you are quoting is nowhere near what I have found and is only £133 cheaper!

Just buy the latest Macbook Air.

I'm sure you can get it for just under £800 if you're a student.

Macbook airs are overpriced pash. All macs are overpriced pash. Just not enough mac torrents out there for my liking either.

Depends very much on what games you want to play - a quick warning now is dont expect to be playing Titan Fall or BF4 on full. Also the budget is very important. May I ask why you need a laptop as an £800 gaming PC is better than a £3000 gaming laptop........

If you do want a laptop that is good bang for buck i would suggest something like:

When it was available it was under £1000. And compared with the others that have been linked on here this one can actually play games like Skyrim or Farcry 3 on high settings at a decent rate.
