Hi, well I am a student on a budget of around £500-600 (lower end preferably)

I would like a laptop which performs well on games such as guild wars 2, wow, LoL.

System requirements:
Windows® XP Service Pack 2 or better
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo 2.0 GHz, Core i3, AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 or better
NVIDIA® GeForce® 7800, ATI Radeon™ X1800, Intel HD 3000 or better (256MB of video RAM and shader model 3.0 or better)
25 GB available HDD space

I have looked at:

Which is the best out of these?

And if you had any more suggestions please say
 
The resolution is pretty basic. The screen isn't very dense, which may be a problem for you. I play League of Legends, and I used to play Warcraft 3 a lot. 1366x768 was fine. Of course, the higher the resolution, the more you get to see when zoomed out. I don't think it is that much of a loss. Actually, since it isn't a super high resolution screen, you'll be getting better performance (graphics wise) in oppose to playing with a full HD Monitor.

As for a recommendation, my experiences with UK Retailers are limited. I did check Scan.co.uk but didn't find anything better than what you did. 😉
 


Ok thank you!

So medion erazer seems the best?
