14" Gaming Laptop

[GJX]

Hello,

I'm looking to acquire a 13-14" Laptop (preferably a 14") with an i5 CPU and a good graphics card.

While browsing I encountered this Lenovo 14" and would like some input on it:

I basically need it to run games like Battlefield 2 without a problem, but not much more than that.

Thanks,

Hello GJX

IMO 6370 will not be able to provide a more fulfilling gaming experience. I would suggest you to consider a notebook with at least GT555 or HD 6770 for a 'reasonable' gaming experience on a notebook.

Notebookcheck comparison of:
Mobility Radeon HD 6370

Geforce 555GT

Mobility Radeon HD 6770

I don't play BF2 as such but I like playing TF2 whenever I can, and on my current notebook (an HP DV6 6011TX with i7 & HD 6770) it gives pretty nice FPS. However, do keep in mind that such notebook's battery time isn't that good when playing games at High Performance settings.

Take a look at the Lenovo IdeaPad Y470 14-inch laptop $764 with Core i5 Sandy Bridge
i5-2410M CPU, 4GB RAM 14" 1366x768 LCD w/ GeForce GT 550M graphics.

That should get you solid frame rates on BF:BC2 with medium graphics.
