A good computer for games?
This is going to be my second laptop but i was wondering which one would be good for games? I am not really a fan of many games so i am not going to load up my laptop with games, maybe 2-5 games but i want all of them to work to their max resolution, Fps etc.
My budget is upto $500 so if anyone could help me out that would be great! Thanks!
In general, in order to play games to their max resolution, FPS, etc. you need to look for a laptop with a separate GPU (video card) as opposed to an intergraded GPU. There are also different levels of GPUs. For reviews of specific video cards look here www.notebookcheck.net. For comparisons of 2 video cards see here: www.gpuboss.com. Also, the more expensive the card, the better the performance but you get diminishing returns with the higher end cards. You need to judge cost/benefit ratio. You may not be able to get a discrete video card in your $500 budget. You may have to go to a laptop in the $750 range. If your budget is fixed at $500, you may want to get a laptop with the Haswell CPU: aka 4th Generation i7, i5, i3 from Intel. They have better integrated graphics card than the 3rd gen i7, i5, i3. Also check out the AMD chips with integrated AMD video cards. Good luck!!
