Solved! Acer Aspire AS7551G-5821 Worth Buying?

[plasticduck]

My current laptop has lasted me one or two years but isn't able to handle most games I try to play, so I was wondering if the Acer Aspire AS7551G-5821 would be able to handle most gaming and still be good for general usage (general web browsing, email, IM, etc.)?

By gaming I mean things like Skyrim, Amnesia, Half-Life 2, Team Fortress 2, random MMORPGs.
I don't want to have to spend too much on a new laptop, but I still need to it be decent. 🙂

I dont know a whole lot about AMD products, but I think it would do fine for most things on low to med settings. Just looking arround a bit it seems to be an old product which has been deactivated on most websites, so dont go paying new prices for it.

Hello plasticduck;

What would that Acer Aspire AS7551G-5821 cost you?
And what other options do you have in the same price range?

I saw one AS7551G-5821 on Amazon for $730 and in that price range there are better options.

For example: Dell XPS 17 Core i5 Laptop $694

I'm not sure about the pricing, as I've been putting off getting one for a while.
I don't have any other options since I haven't been looking into it too much, but just so long as it's under $700 I'd be happy for any other laptops to be named.
