Smooth on what settings? For $500 you can't get a gaming laptop new.

For $500 you could however get an entry level gaming pc.

The HP Pavilion 17-e112dx is one of the best gaming laptops under 500 dollars which packed comparatively powerful hardware components for mid-range gaming. The new HP laptop features 17-inch high-definition display with a brilliant design and the sound quality is also good. The Intel 4600 graphics card supports the most of the mid-range games. The processing power and speed is also attractive. With the third generation Intel Core i3 2.6GHz processor and 4GB DDR3L RAM with 750GB hard drive the HP Pavilion 17-e112dx will all set to provide you the utmost performance for finish your daily task. It runs on the latest Windows 8.1 64 bit operating system which also enhanced its performance over gaming and using many apps.

Let's be realistic tho, the gent up there want its solidly for gaming, this is a nice laptop but not for gaming it would run to choppy some games if at all would run, with 4gb of ram you will need to upgrade for sure, and there isnt much room for upgrading this laptop, maybe he could push it to 8gb. But finding a new laptop for less than 500 dollar good luck. Now if he would look at a "home" laptop he can find a reasonable price to stay at 500 dollar like an Acer Aspire E5-571-3205. But if your looking something solid for gaming you will need to aim more like 800 dollars maybe 900 to find something decent.

This will be absolutely terrible for gaming. It would struggle on minimum settings...

Oh sorry, forgot this thread was for a laptop for playing minecraft. The laptop he posted isn't a gaming laptop by all means, but it will work for minecraft. Generally any new laptop with an i3/i5 will play mc smoothly on "fancy" graphics. Brand doesn't matter. Specs do.
