Hey guys, I have been searching for a laptop for months now, but everytime I find a good one. It goes out of stock and discontinued. I would like it to be able to do some gaming but not heaps. So really something with a decent graphics card. All the ones I have seen dont have dedicated graphics. Any reply appreciated. Thanks

I know I just dont want to spend too much. Thanks for the reccomendation. Ive found this one, it is a refurbished but its seems really good for the money. I dont really care for the touchscreen but guess its an added bonus.

This HP laptop has a quad core 2.1GHz Processor, and integrated graphics a bit better than the GT 620M. It is better for gaming because it has a quad core processor as apposed to the dual core on the Acer, and the graphics on this one are a bit better.

Alternatively, if you are able to purchase off of Walmart.com, you can get this HP laptop with an A10-5750M which is better than the A8-5550M in the previous suggestion. The graphics on the A10 are somewhere in between a 635M and a 640M, making the GPU better than the 620M equivalent in the A8. Also it has a quad core 2.5GHz processor as apposed to the quad core 2.1GHz on the A8. (walmart says 3.5GHz, its a typo)

In the end I did buy the acer and it arrived and there is nothing wrong with it except the dvd drive gets stuck a little bit. But it came with cables and everything, Im happy with this buy it does run out of battery a bit quick but thats fine. Thanks for everyones replies.
